Prior to the sordid scenes on the steps of the Sydney Opera House on 9 October 2023, tragic events like what has unfolded this evening at Bondi Beach were unimaginable.

What’s so horrific about tonight’s attack is that such an occurrence has been foreseeable – no more so than by Australians of Jewish faith.

For now, I express my profound thoughts for those who have been injured, for those families who have lost loved ones, and for every Australian and tourist caught up in this abominable attack. I am praying for all involved.

With characteristic bravery and altruism, our police officers, paramedics, lifeguards and innocent bystanders responded. God bless these heroes. And God bless our doctors and nurses this evening.

It’s an utter disgrace that such heinous violence has occurred in our country.

At least 10 now confirmed dead, many more wounded in the horrific Bondi beach terrorist attack. This was the event that was targeted - a family celebration ‘for all ages’ for the Jewish festival of Hanukkah. So cowardly, so disgusting.

[Senator Andrew Bragg @ajamesbragg]

Sadly I am not surprised about the shocking terrorism at Bondi. Australia’s antisemitism crisis has been allowed to fester for years now. I feel so deeply for Sydney’s Jewish community celebrating Hanukah and of course the first responders. Australia is slipping away.

10 people confirmed dead - including children - in a mass shooting at Bondi Beach targeting the Australian jewish community.

Police are now investigating reports of a bomb.

Fear, shock, horror… anger… devastation.

[Tony Abbott @HonTonyAbbott]

The events at Bondi Beach are an absolute atrocity. A horror for the victims and a massive escalation of the hatred directed at Australia’s Jewish community. There should be no place in Australia for the kind of evil we’ve seen this evening. Thank God one bystander heroically intervened showing the good side of our country. I am praying for all those affected at this time.

Statement of Fmr Prime Minister Naftali Bennett on the Bondi Beach Hanukkah Massacre and the wave of Antisemitism in Australia:

*The writing was on the wall. The Australian government bears responsibility.*

Tonight Jews were attacked in Australia in the Bondi Beach Hanukkah massacre.

A Jewish holiday gathering turned into a scene of terror.

This is a moment of grief, and time for accountability.

I have just spoken with several Jewish community leaders in Sydney.

They are fearful and outraged.
For months they warned of rising antisemitism.
The writing was on the wall. It was ignored.

This violence did not come out of nowhere.
When antisemitic hatred is tolerated and threats are downplayed, attacks become inevitable.

I demand that the Australian government take immediate, decisive action to protect Jewish communities and confront antisemitism as the serious threat it is.

Statements of sympathy are no longer enough.
Jews should not have to fear for their lives anywhere, including Australia.

Anthony Albanese. Penny Wong. Tony Burke. Chris Minns.

You were warned. You knew.

This is on you.

[Pauline Hanson 🇦🇺 @PaulineHansonOz]

STATEMENT

Today is an extremely dark day for our nation, particularly the Australian Jewish community, which appears to be the target of this terrorist attack.

The Prime Minister never heeded the warning signs, including the weekly anti-semitic protests across our nation, hate speech from certain religious clerics, our obnoxious universities and probable terrorist alert.

I stand with Australia’s Jewish community, who tonight deserve our absolute solace. You have the same right to live in peace and harmony as all Australians.

Authorities must be honest when revealing the identities and backgrounds of these murderers.

Australia's @abcnews are still not reporting that a Hanukkah festival has been targeted. Absolutely disgraceful.

Call your mom today. Let her yap for 15 min without getting a word in.

A finite number of these left. And someday you'll wish you had just one more.

What Sundays are for.

[Cameron McDonald @CameronMcDonald]

@JohnCleese John you of all people should be better than this.

[Cameron McDonald @CameronMcDonald]

@MikeCarlton01 Let's all hope and pray you're wrong about that 🙏

@Keir_Starmer bro is trying to jump on the Trump train after it's already left the station 😂

[Konstantin Kisin @KonstantinKisin]

It's time for people with Trump Derangement Syndrome to admit they were wrong.

Brains are very susceptible. Steer yours properly. View the sunrise, thank God for another day living and then go get meaningful things done. Trolls and drama are there to test your focus. Happy Friday!

Whilst Islamic call to prayer bellows from speakers in every city, the police have finally taken away Christian street preacher Ollie Sabotelli’s amplification.

They say his preaching of the gospel of Jesus Christ is causing alarm and distress.

We are a CHRISTIAN COUNTRY!

[Mike Winger @MikeWingerii]

It’s time for Christians all over the world to start talking about Nigeria.

More than that, what can we do to stop Muslims from murdering so many Christians there?

There are reports of over 50,000 Christians who have been murdered since 2000, in Nigeria. It’s difficult to know what the real numbers are because the Nigerian government is lying to everybody about them.

[Konstantin Kisin @KonstantinKisin]

We don't want security around Christian and Jewish places of worship.

We want the people who want to attack them in prison or deported.

Proscribe the Muslim Brotherhood.

Deport the killer's terror-loving father.

Make Britain absolutely intolerable for Islamists.

Until you do all that, you can shove your "hate won't divide us" crap.
