Sydney synagogue sprayed with antisemitic graffiti in latest attack on Australian Jews

Big deal.

Israel has killed tens of thousands of children with indiscriminate bombing raids.

No equivalence with some spray paint.

Australia, like many countries unfortunately, has an ingrained and serious neo-nazi problem.

JJE ...thats just a stupid assertion mate.

I can confidently state there is no neo nazi problem.

NEVER see nazi marches , or gatherings of more than a dozen, who then get their comeuppance by ordinary people.

The graffitist in this story is just as likely to be a young male, no political affiliation, but appalled at the genocide in Gaza, deciding to let his opinion be known.

The spread of anti-semitism in many countries owes more to Netanyahu and the self-confessed zionist Biden than to any other living persons on the planet. An altogether deplorable consequence for innocent Jews around the world who continue to condemn the wholesale killings of so many women and children, not to mention the men, too, by the rogue ultra-nationalist government people and their military.

tabi above....not me saying Israel has killed tens of thousands of innocents.

It,s the UN, Lancet Magazine, the IDF saying it killed 19,000 Hamas and accepting the death toll of around 50,000 people, it,s MSF, Save the Childeren, WHO , the USA, the UK and Europe.

Cant all be anti semitic mate.

I don’t get this new idea that a bad thing is “justified” if you can mention something ELSE bad.

2 things can be, and are, bad at the same time.

Fair point.

But recently there has been a spate of articles here, and elsewhere, about nazi-style conduct in Australia - pretty much one a week.

And we know the Australian (or state) government has passed laws prohibiting Hitler salutes, flying swatikas and displaying other national socialist paraphernalia. People have come before the courts, even jailed, I believe, for breaching these laws.

There have been some unsavoury incidents in a certain national park area in the state of Victoria that resemble mini-Nuremberg rallies.

Point being that the government wouldn't be passing laws of that nature - and these incidents as reported here - wouldn't be happening without an underlying issue.

Re Nazi ification claim...I did 5 secs checking...there WAS a rally of 50 men ? in Cowara /or Cowra recently.

Thats 50 out of 25 million people.

Not a perfect nazi zero but pretty non nazi in my eyes.

There are too many people of too many nations now in Australia to see any "white supremecy " stuff take hold.

Too late.

Multi culti now .

JJE...nazi stories sell I guess.

Not many stories of "families picnicing happily together and swapping each others food from different cultures "But this is regular ....more than skinny white boys without girlfriends playing dress up to spook the horses.

Australia, like many countries unfortunately, has an ingrained and serious neo-nazi problem.

Most of the accused in these incidents have been identified as of Islamic background. One vandal of a synagogue and cars - Mohammed Farhat, 20 - was recently arrested attempting to flee the country via Sydney airport. He was identified by a Hezbollah flag tattoo on his neck.

For context, Australia has 8 times more Muslims than Jews.

Not convinced it is a "neo-nazi problem".

I don’t get this new idea, mostly on the left, that a bad thing is “justified” if you can mention something ELSE bad.

Not a new idea - it's as old as the hills and a staple of all government playbooks (as history records). The latest egregious example being the "genocidal atrocities" of the Hamas resistance forces on 10/7

Fighto.... Idiots are everywhere...I,m not going to condemn a whole religion .

Dont think nazis like Muslims either.

But again, the issue is of equivalence between graffiti and genocide.

There is none.

Yet Jewish lobby groups will scream about a grafitti incident, and scream if someone mentions the right of Palestinian people.

Too much screaming...causes a sore throat.

Australia police must come down harshly on these perpetrators the same was Israel does not accept murderous acts by Muslim terrorists.

I was only addressing the claim from one poster that these attacks/vandalism are the result of a "serious neo-nazi problem" in Australia and other countries.

I see absolutely no evidence that neo-nazis are behind these attacks/vandalism.

Islamists are overwhelmingly the cause, not fictitious “neo nazis”.

This isn't white Australians and you know it. Stop dancing around the elephant in the room.

Odds are that an Australian who believes that their is no place in Australia for criminal activities that support GENOCIDE targeted a specific house, a specific organization, and a specific individual for engaging in that activity, but because of either pressure or personal denialism, the PM is ignoring the specificity, something that rarely happens when the specific person is professes to being part of one other religion.

Pointless vandalism but still better to spray graffiti than machine gun fire.

Stop killing innocents in Gaza..

Problem solved..

And this legacy never happened too:

A lot of so called "experts" here in the comments. Ultimately this is not even a drop in the ocean. Today in Australia some bricks which aren't even sacred were "vandalised" le gasp.

Also today more Palestinians were indiscriminately killed by a barbarian who evades justice and enacts his own personal holocaust. I doubt this comment will last for long. Sadly their censorship has made its way even here, hence how this tripe article makes headlines here. Yet nothing of the daily genocide does.

The graffiti on it's wall read "Hitler on Top", Alla huaXX" and there was a swastika. See here: https://www.jpost.com/breaking-news/article-836930

That's not very nice, now is it?

Should it be news on this site under World News? I don't think so. But then again, Japan Today has front page articles about shoplifting.
