I find it incredibly difficult to write about my Jewishness. I didn't want to write this, but I did.

We need to re-embrace complexity and nuance in thinking about and discussing the Jewish future.

Ok, I trust mine to protect me too. Which is why I trained it extensively on what the virus looks like so it can handle it.

Will the Australian news media now report the abuse being experienced by Muslim Australians after the media's fear-mongering rhetoric? Or the abuse experienced by Palestinian Australians simply for wearing a keffiyeh? Or Lebanese Australians? Will the PM speak out against THIS #racism? #auspol

Hey Joshy,
33 indigenous deaths in custody in the last financial year. I'm pretty sure that would be up there for one of the greatest stains on this nation.

The race discrimination commissioner's thorough and evidence-based National Anti-Racism Framework has been ignored by the Albanese government.

Instead, they are buckling to pressure to implement the agenda of a pro-Israel lobbyist.

Gaza has changed the West forever. It has demonstrated its dearth of a conscience. Its hypocrisy. Its sadism. And we will never fully recover from bearing witness to an unthinkable crime to which our leaders gave their full stamp of approval.

We in Australia need to unite as one. Regardless of faith, skin colour or nationality. We need to as the Prime Minister said "wrap our arms around our Jewish community". I'd go further and wrap our arms around Palestinian, Muslim and all communities.

Netanyahu, Sussan Ley, & others choosing to attempt to score political advantage from the horrific events at Bondi, do a great disservice to all striving for greater peace & understanding in society.

The media would do us all a great favour by platforming the helpful & heroic, incl. Ahmed el-Ahmed.

To be confronted with this horrific act of antisemitic violence during the Jewish festival of light and hope is shattering. In moments like this, we hold each other close.

Sussan Ley is politicising #BondiShooting

Calls it a 'failure of leadership' & cites previous antisemitic attacks (many found since to not be antisemitism)

No motive or details have yet been released about this heinous crime

@albomp.bsky.social is apparently an “equal opportunity” scapegoat for the #Bondi events - he hasn’t done enough for Jews/he’s done too much for Jews … This was a “lone wolf” event, the very kind of event for which security experts say plans cannot be laid #auspol
The blame lies with Albanese. He raised Jews above everyone else, continues material support to Israel’s war, allowed Nazi’s to march giving some Jews further ammunition to be racist/genocidal towards Palestinians and now will further damage relations between parts of our community.

Shame on Segal. Directly linking peaceful protests against Israel's genocide in Gaza with the atrocity in Bondi. Disgusting.

This woman's Zionist extremism exacerbates division. She is fueling the fire.

I agree, he can't win. Doesn't do enough for the Jews, doesn't do enough for the Palestinians. He's expected to solve every problem. I agree, no government can predict what some misguided people will do. We need to stop the blame game, show a little compassion & work for community cohesion.

If you're scared this tragedy will by weaponised by those pushing hatred, division & control, same. It's a pattern that can change nations. We've already seen Netanyahu claim the Muslim who charged the shooters was Jewish. Empathy, patience and truth. Everything else is unhelpful
