Two years ago, the Sydney Opera was the site of scenes that shocked Australia and the world. Thousands of howling Muslims, chanting “Gas the Jews!”, just days after the worst massacre of Jews since WWII. The Opera House became the ground zero for a cyclone of anti-Semitic hate that culminated in the horrific mass murder at Bondi, just before Christmas.
This week, the Opera House was ‘reclaimed’, as the centrepiece of a National Day of Mourning. Even still, the unmistakeable signs of the dire changes in Australian society brought about by ‘diversity’ were grimly unmistakable.
A huge security presence has descended upon the Sydney Opera House ahead of the event marking the national day of mourning, highlighted by police snipers perched on the sails of the iconic landmark.
Anyone entering the grounds around the Opera House is being subjected to bag checks and screening while steep barriers have been erected around the forecourt.
Snipers on the Opera House? Could there be a more telling sign of Australia’s descent into the darkness of Islamic intolerance? It’s a shocking sight for those of us who remember an Australia that was less ‘diverse’… but infinitely safer.
Not that we shouldn’t have been forewarned. I well remember the stark differences between my first visit to the new Parliament House in Canberra and my next. On the first visit, ‘security’ consisted of a single fat old bloke in a deckchair, lazily waving away the flies while he nodded absently at entering tourists.
On the next visit, heavily armoured federal police toting military rifles glared at the visitors filing slowly past the diversity bollards and through the metal detectors.
What has happened to our country?
We all know, but nobody in positions of authority can bring themselves to say it. Even the supposed rabidly right-wig Australians coyly referred to ‘anti-Israel protests of two years ago’. If it really was just ‘anti-Israel’, why the chants of “Gas the Jews”?
Addressing the vigil, PM Anthony Albanese – who was pointedly told to stay away from the funerals of the victims – had the gall to tell Australia that we are a “safer place than it was two days ago”. Sure: so safe we need snipers at an opera house.
Presumably because it’s generally considered bad form to boo at a vigil, there was just the one jeer for the odious little creep. Applause was notably muted, as it should be, given his disgusting, self-serving crocodile tears.
Anthony Albanese has vowed Australians will “drive antisemitism from our shores” on the national day of mourning.
“Australians are committed to driving antisemitism from our shores because it stands in opposition to all we are as a country, the nation we have built together – with care and compassion – over generations,” the prime minister said at the service at the Sydney Opera House.
And which Albanese’s political allies, not to mention his core voting bloc in the Labor heartland of Western Sydney, have mobbed together to destroy. Far from driving anti-Semitism from our shores, Albanese and co are flying it in by the planeload, including secretively colluding to sneak ISIS jihadis into the country.
NSW Premier Chris Minns may have faked the sincerity better than Albosleazy, but his word were no less hollow.
NSW Premier Chris Minns has called on all Australians to stand up against “corrosive” racism and antisemitism “wherever we see it”. [...]
Then why didn’t he do so, two years ago? Instead, NSW police arrested just one person – a Jewish-Australian man making his way to what was also supposed to be a vigil for massacred Jews. Over the next two years of escalating, violent anti-Semitism, Minns sat on his hands. Even after Bondi, Minns’ government is appointing a virulently anti-Israel judge to its Supreme Court.
Words are all well and good, but Minns’ complete lack of action for two years tells us all we need to know.
To damn him with faint praise, at least he snuck in a dig at disgusting Sydney-based ‘Palestinian academic’ Randa Abdel-Fattah. [...]
He told the service at the Sydney Opera House it was “intolerable” for anyone to suggest that another Australian “doesn’t deserve a safe space, cultural or any other kind”.
This is a reference to Abdel-Fattah’s public gibbering that “Zionists” have “no claim or right to cultural safety”.
At least one speaker had the guts to name the core problem.
“We all know what happened here just as the October 7 horrors were unfolding. We warned at the time that when you have a mob of Islamist ideology chanting what they were chanting, saying the armies of Mohammed are coming for the Jews, there are people in our society who will take that as a cue, that will act upon it. And that’s exactly what we saw,” [Executive Council of Australian Jewry co-CEO Alex Ryvchin] said.
Yet, even he reflexively uses the mealy mouthed buzzword, Islamist. Originally, of course, the word simply meant the same as Muslim: a follower of Islam. In recent years, though, in tandem with George W Bush’s patently absurd buzz-phrase, “Islam is a religion of peace,” it’s been reconfigured to deceive. Islamophile apologists changed its meaning to refer to an allegedly separate ideology from Islam, which is ridiculous: there is no difference between Islamic and Islamist. Except that the so-called ‘Islamists’ take the teachings of Islam a lot more seriously than most.
Meanwhile, of all those in attendance, Pauline Hanson alone dared say exactly what many Australians were thinking about the prime minister’s oily insincerity.
One Nation leader Pauline Hanson slammed Anthony Albanese’s apology at the Sydney Opera House vigil as an act of “political survival” that came “too late”.
Speaking to media outside the Opera House during the national day of mourning service, the senator said she had “no time” for the prime minister’s response to the Bondi tragedy.
“I think it was a little bit too late,” Ms Hanson said.
“He should have said these words long before this.
“I felt it was a political survival speech, to tell you the truth.”
No doubt the political elite and their legacy media bootlickers will duly clutch their pearls over the coming days, but a great many Australians will be nodding and murmuring, “Onya, Pauline!”
