That the Greens oppose the United States and Israel ending a regime that brutally subjugates women, murders homosexuals, and exports terrorism tells you everything about their priorities.
The Prime Minister has said he will do whatever it takes to deal with antisemitism. That must now start with a clear commitment to implement his own Antisemitism Envoyโs report in full.
For two years, Jewish Australians have been warning that antisemitism is rising and that their lives have been made harder, day after day. Those warnings were not heeded.
We have seen criminal acts carried out repeatedly and in plain sight. Public landmarks turned into symbols of antisemitic hate. University campuses occupied and Jewish students ostracised. Homes vandalised. Childcare centres targeted. Synagogues firebombed, orchestrated by foreign terrorist states.
Everything must change from today in how governments respond. Antisemitism is not a problem to be managed. It is an evil that must be confronted and eradicated.
Yesterdayโs terror attack on Sydneyโs Jewish community and on all Australians is a day that will be forever burned in the nationโs soul.
This was the darkest day Australia has faced since the Port Arthur Massacre in April 1996.
Bondi Beach is a symbol of Australia. These murders are a desecration against us all.
I acknowledge the swift and courageous response of New South Wales Police and paramedics, whose immediate action helped secure the scene, protect lives and support those caught up in this horrific attack.
I particularly recognise those who stepped into danger to help save lives, disarm the terrorists, and render first aid to the wounded.
We have all seen video footage of brave civilians, charging into danger in an effort to save lives. They are heroes.
I share the nationโs revulsion and horror as we continue listening to the sorrow and heartbreak in the testimonials we are hearing.
Many Australians are feeling a growing sense of bewilderment.
There is palpable anger. And I share that anger.
Because Antisemitism in Australia has been left to fester.
Many of us who have been close to Jewish Australians for the last two years, as I have, heard story after story of hideous antisemitism.
We have seen a clear failure of leadership to keep Australians safe, especially our Jewish community.
We have a government that has seen antisemitism as a problem to be managed instead of evil which must be eradicated.
Everything must change from today in how governments respond.
Criminal acts have been perpetrated, repeatedly and very publicly.
We have seen public landmarks turned into symbols of antisemitic hate.
We have seen campuses occupied and Jewish students ostracised.
We have seen the homes of Jewish Australians vandalised.
We have seen Jewish childcare centres targeted.
We have seen synagogues firebombed โ orchestrated by foreign terrorist states.
Every single day for the past two years, the lives of Jewish Australians have been made harder because the tide of antisemitism has been rising.
The armed guards greeting four-year-olds on the way into kindergarten.
The mothers who read hateful and threatening posts online and decided to keep their child home from school.
University students having to put up with chants like โfrom the โriver to the seaโ. Letโs be clear. This chant calls for the explicit elimination of the Jewish State. Universities did not deal with this properly.
Jewish Australians who told me they were returning to Israel because they felt safer there than here.
In February this year, ASIO Director General Mike Burgess warned antisemitism was the biggest threat to loss of life in Australia.
The Prime Minister has told Jewish Australians he will do whatever it takes to deal with antisemitism. He must start by committing today to implementing his own Antisemitism Envoyโs report in full.

Rest in peace Charlie Kirk ๐๏ธ
A man of principle who peacefully debated students across the United States.
Violence has no place in politics - at home or abroad - and must be condemned.
We wish to send our prayers to Kirkโs wife and children during this dark hour.
