Mass shooting at Bondi Beach

It’s now been confirmed that the murderers are connected to IS. Which without doubt hates Hamas and Palestinians. Those blaming Gaza should be ashamed of themselves.

.. a point which will be completely lost on those who do not understand the geopolitical situation in the Middle East - and that is most of the people participating in this thread, and other threads here on the topic. They simply regurgitate the mindless claptrap they hear in their far left or far right echo-chambers.

THIS. I am being driven crazy by the way the fanatics on both sides of this debate wear such huge blinders. It is blind following of ideology.
Long ago I adapted a "Plague On Both Your Houses" attitude toward the whole Palestinain debate. I see no hope until the leadership on both sides have a massive change. I am not holding my breath.
It is when they get into numbers that annoys me. Yes, the Isrealis have killed many more people in Gaza then Hamas has killed Isrealis. BUt that is not because of any moral superoity on the part of HAMAS. It is simply that HAMAS does not have the firepower that Israel has. if they did, the body count of Israelis would be as massive as that of the Palestinians.

Ahh yes. The universal catch-cry of Nazis in 1930s Germany, and of anti-Semites everywhere else since.... blame everything on the Jews .. its all their fault.

It be a good time remind you that Islam didn't ◊◊◊◊◊◊◊ well exist until 610 AD when the Prophet Muhammad had his visions from the Angel Gabriel in some caves. Meanwhile, the Jewish peoples lived throughout the Holy Land, including the area of Palestine, for at least a few thousand years before that... so that gives Jewish people the prior claim.

And, anyway, that horse has fled the barn a long time ago. You have around seven million Jews in Israel and the West Bank, and I don't see them wanting to go anyway else. You are have a Hell of a lot of Palestinins in the West Bank who don't want to go anywhere.
I guess the only hope is that eventually Northren Ireland repeasts is self, the average citizen just gets tired of the mess and the killing, and brings pressure to at least stop the slaughter. I am not holding my breath.

Are you deliberately missing my point? Which, of course, is that IS supporters are not motivated to kill by what happened in Gaza.

You might be right in this case; but I think it is silly to deny that GAZA has not sparked a huge upspike in Anti Semitism world wide
 
And I see that a Auto with a Hannukah decoration was attacked in Sydney. Yeah, I would say OZ has a real problem there.

Ancient news that has been totally ignored by all but a handful of Nazis. And the leaders of the Coalition, of course. Why Andy Ross thinks this has any relevance is totally puzzling.

Also I wonder if he realises he has posted a link from Australia’s Fox News?

Did you miss the word "desperate"?

I am struggling to parse your double negative.

I don't know if this conflict spiked anti-semitism exactly. I do think the conflict was used as a flashpoint by islamic organizations, and manipulated to represent a pro-islam, anti-judaism sentiment. I don't think that hordes of ◊◊◊◊◊◊◊ college kids and other middle-class social justice warriors turning out in droves to chant "pro palestine", "globalize the intifada", "gays for gaza" etc. was an organic movement.

He's not tone deaf at all. He's taking a stand in favor of terrorist retaliation for Gaza.

To repeat, there is no evidence the Bondi attack had any connection to Gaza. The killers were almost certainly connected to IS which hates Gaza.
