This Government Is a Stain on Australia

Australian PM Anthony Albanese received exactly the reception he deserved when he finally deigned to visit a firebombed synagogue. It took Lazarus four days to rise from the dead, so I guess it’s only fitting that the PM took the same time to interrupt his busy schedule of tennis and drinkies with big business to finally visit the site of the latest anti-Semitic attack.

A large cohort of Melbourne’s Jewish community, including under-fire Labor MP Josh Burns, welcomed Mr Albanese outside the synagogue.

“Welcomed”, meaning giving the PM the razzing he so richly deserves.

Anthony Albanese has been swarmed by a group of seemingly dissatisfied Jewish community members outside the Melbourne synagogue at the centre of a terror investigation.

The Prime Minister was only able to make quick remarks before being whisked away by his security without answering questions from the media.

“Time to resign,” yelled one person. “MIA,” yelled another. “Off to Kooyong to play tennis mate,” said another.

Others yelled: “Nice day for tennis” and “Does the Prime Minister condemn calls for intifada against Jews?”

As if. Albanese has done nothing for over a year while such incitements to anti-Semitic violence have been bellowed in the streets, and even in the halls of parliament.

Anthony Albanese pledged that Australia will never tolerate ‘evil’ crimes like the firebombing of the Adass Israel Synagogue after he visited the burned out ruins in Melbourne’s Ripponlea with Jewish community leaders on Tuesday.

Except, as we’ve seen, Albanese has been far too prepared to tolerate them, for fear of losing more votes to the anti-Semitic Greens and Muslims of Western Sydney.
Australia’s Jewish community should probably think themselves lucky that Albanese’s Israel-hating foreign minister hasn’t joined in the chorus.

Penny Wong says criticising Israel isn’t in itself anti-Semitic, declaring the Jewish state needs to abide by international law just as China and Russia do.

Russia and China abide by international law? That’s news to the rest of the world.
How is it not anti-Semitic to repeatedly attack the world’s only Jewish state? Especially when the Jewish state is the only one singled out for relentless criticism? Don’t piss on our legs and tell us it’s raining, Penny.

And, of course, no terror attack is complete without Muslims whining that they’re the real victims.

Science minister Ed Husic has taken aim at Peter Dutton and the Coalition for turning “a blind eye” on Islamophobia, just moments before Anthony Albanese made a chaotic appearance at Melbourne’s Adass synagogue.

Show us this ‘Islamophobia’, Ed.

Are mosques being firebombed and vandalised (at least, by someone other than their own imams, or fellow Muslims)? Are Muslims having to hide their identity for fear of being attacked in the streets? Are mobs of baying Jews parading through the streets of Australian cities every week, bellowing ‘Gas the Muslims!’? Are Muslim schools having to hire armed guards? Are rabbis urging their congregations to spit on Muslims?

Mr Husic compared the terrorist attack on the Jewish synagogue on Friday to an improvised explosive that was placed on a ute in the driveway of a Sydney home in January, saying it was “equally bad”.

It might be worth pointing out that the home in question was adorned with extremist slogans supporting the Hamas ‘resistance’. It might also be worth pointing out that we’ve seen plenty of fake ‘hate crimes’, including the fire-bombing of a Melbourne cafe, which ‘pro-Palestinians’ blamed on Jews – but which in fact is suspected to be linked to the Muslim crime gang-linked ‘tobacco wars’.

At the same time, hate crimes against Jews – already by far the most heavily targeted group in Australia – have soared by a staggering 400 per cent. Most of them perpetrated by Muslims.

So spare us the glass-jawed whining, Ed. Your government has disgraced itself – and Australia – enough, already.
