THE Australian Jewish Association spoke out regarding a stabbing during a live broadcast of a service at a church in Australia, Monday (15/4), leaving four people injured and triggering clashes between police and angry local residents.
The association declared the attack a Muslim terrorist attack in Sydney.
“Our thoughts are with our friends in the beautiful Assyrian community and we wish them a speedy recovery,” said the Association’s statement on the X account @AustralianJA.
They think the government is asleep at the wheel. This is because they have given many warnings regarding the increase in Islamic extremism in Kangaroo Country.
“Radical incitement went unchecked for months. Radical preachers were allowed to express hatred. Extremist protesters created division for 6 months,” said the statement.
“All the Albanese Government does is attack Jews and Israelis and pander to terrorist groups.”
