Bondi Beach’s ‘Chanukah by the Sea’ Becomes Terror Target as Armed Jihadist Slaughters Jewish Attendees – Twitchy

There has been a horrific shooting at a beach in Sydney, Australia. What many outlets won’t tell you … it was a Hanukkah celebration and Jewish people were intentionally targeted.

Unlike most other big outlets, no mention of Hanukkah or potential motive that the gunmen targeted Jewish people intentionally https://t.co/Edp2x9kWU0

A horrific nightmare.

🇦🇺 SYDNEY ATTACK

– Mass shooting at famous Bondi Beach, targeting Jewish Chanukkah event, declared terrorist incident.

– At least 12 people, including a suspect, have been confirmed dead.

– One suspect identified as Naveed Akram

– Prime Minister Albanese calls it an act of…

Of course, governments in many parts of the world will pretend we can’t know a motive.

Horrific. Just absolutely the worst news to wake up to… and the left-wing prime minister will condemn it, call for justice, and then import 100,000 Islamists through mass immigration to prey on vulnerable Australians. https://t.co/cklTOsaCnd

And many Americans will pretend this isn’t another reason to tighten up our borders and deport people who are in this country illegally.

They don’t like Jews. That’s the crux of it. https://t.co/Gorry4VJ1W

It’s time to stop pretending otherwise.

I’m told you can’t get a gun in Australia.

It’s almost like people who will murder people will get guns even if it’s illegal.

Gun control does not work.

Terrorists and people with mental illness will always find a way.

Therefore, there’s nothing to learn from Australia’s “gun control”.

Two lessons should be learned today. The first one is gun control does not work. The second is radical Islam is a huge issue. Unfortunately, Leftists won’t learn either lesson. 

Hanukkah’s light will prevail over hate. Unequivocally condemn the Sydney Bondi attack. Deepest sympathies to families; peace must win

I’m sick to my stomach reading this People gathered in peace, celebrating faith and someone chose hate and bullets This wasn’t madness, this was terrorism. No excuses, no soft words.

The soft words have gone on long enough.
