There is a court case pending in Sydney Australia. It involves a man charged with one count of terrorism, 15 counts of murder, 40 counts of inflicting harm with intent to murder, and other crimes leading to 59 charges in all.

The facts are these: on Sunday evening December 14 at Sydney’s Bondi Beach, on the First Night of Chanukah the eight-day Jewish “Festival of Lights”, a celebratory crowd of around a thousand consisting mainly of Jews was targeted by gunfire resulting in the worst act of terrorism in Australian history.

The allegation is that a father and son were the shooters and that both were radicalised as Islamist Extremists through ISIS—the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria. It is alleged that two ISIS flags were found in the shooters’ car. Both shooters were eventually shot in the act by police, the son survived.

Calls for Prime Minister Anthony Albanese to resign began immediately—not just for his failure to protect this crowd through counterterrorism measures but for creating the conditions that emboldened terror. Media observers and surviving Jewish victims claimed that the federal government had failed to defend Australia from the growth of Radical Islam since Hamas attacked Israel in 2023 and therefore planted the fodder that would explode in antisemitism.

Accusations flew fast at the government: It had failed to implement official recommendations from its own Antisemitism Envoy to keep Jews safe; it had foolishly recognised a “State of Palestine” while Hamas was still in Gaza encouraging the terror group to not disarm as part of the Trump Peace Plan; it had done nothing to punish antisemitic behaviour at pro-Palestine marches, in universities and on streets across the nation; it had failed to stop Islamist preachers teaching martyrdom and hate. Most importantly, that it had negligently imported Radical Islamists though poorly vetted immigration, and was now signalling its intent to continue this policy by issuing 3,000 “tourist visas” to Gazans and letting former “ISIS Brides” return.

Albanese chose as his response a tightened ban on firearms. People replied in uproar for ignoring the problem at hand—government inspired antisemitism.

It took him another day to finally say in a press conference that:

Radical perversion of Islam is absolutely a problem, it is something that has been identified globally as a problem as well.

And :

ISIS is created by an evil ideology that has been called out not just by the Australian government but globally as well.

Today, no one knows where he or the NSW government of Premier Chris Minns stands in preventing further terrorism, not by guns but by radical hate.

So here are 11 policies that the Australian Government, states and territories must implement without delay to stop Radical Islamists exploiting Albanese’s continued weakness and strike again.

Eleven prohibitions to combat antisemitism in Australia

  1. Blood libel—Prohibit claims of Israeli “genocide”, “famine” and targeted “baby killing” in Gaza by officially denouncing and debunking them as frauds. Blood libels are the most cowardly and insidious tools antisemites have used against Jews over centuries. Gaza is merely the latest cauldron for this murderous tactic, this time instigated by the Radical Islamist movement to the envy of Neo-Nazis and Communists who’ve used it often.
  2. “Globalise the intifada” slogan—Prohibit the public use of this slogan whose purpose is to promote jihad (Islamist civil war) by inciting hate, physical violence and terrorism towards non-jihadists including Jews.
  3. “From the River to the Sea” slogan—Prohibit the public use of this slogan whose purpose is to promote genocide against Jews and Israel.
  4. “Zionism”—Prohibit derogatory use of this term as a proxy for antisemitic sloganeering by clearly re-affirming Australia’s support of Zionism in the form of the present State of Israel, as an ally, with a right to prosper and defend itself.
  5. Holocaust slogans—Prohibit the use of Holocaust terminology to taunt and disparage Jews such as references to “gassing”, “Zyklon-B”, “Auschwitz”, “concentration camps”, and “going back to Europe” designed to create trauma, fear and discomfort in them.
  6. Preaching jihad—Prohibit the preaching and teaching of the Radical Islamist concept of “jihad” as meticulously detailed in the written charters, manifestos and policies of the Muslim Brotherhood, Hamas, Hezbollah, ISIS, Iran and others that call for uprising, martyrdom and war in the pursuit of slavery, misogyny, and the death of Jews and other “infidels” including secular Muslims.
  7. “Khaybar, Khaybar, ya yahud” slogan—Prohibit the use of this war cry and its follow-ons intended to incite harm and the death of Jews—the “yahud”.
  8. Red triangle icon—Prohibit the public use of this sign in banners, posters, stickers, clothing and paraphernalia which since October 7 2023, has been co-opted by supporters of Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad to incite harm, and death to Jews and those who do not support these terror groups in Gaza. The red triangle must be designated the equivalent of the Nazi swastika.
  9. Proselytising—Prohibit instances where all religions are not treated equally if the freedom to proselytise is permitted. The public preaching of religion cannot be permitted where the preaching of all religions is not equally allowed. This includes public prayer, chanting affirmations of God’s greatness and displaying banners with these affirmations in public which are seen, if not intended, to be intimidatory to non-believers.
  10. Anti-Israel boycotts, blockades, and the protection of grocery and retail—Prohibit tampering with Kosher or Israeli food; the blocking of streets and sidewalks; interference with the patronage of retail; the vandalism of businesses and premises with antisemitic stickers, slogans, graffiti and signage; interference with peaceful public transport, sport and recreation; and calls to boycott Jewish and Israeli businesses and trade. These tactics come from the Nazi era and are designed to intimidate, incite fear and cause harm to employees, proprietors consumers and the general pubic.
  11. BDS, SJP and other discriminatory movements—Prohibit any movement, organisation or body that interferes with peaceful commerce, and the provision of services and education in Australia. Existing trade practices, consumer, equal opportunity and anti discrimination laws must be applied or tightened. BDS is an antisemitic, anti-competiton movement and must be outlawed.

In the absence of these measures Anthony Albanese and his tenure, his cabinet, Home Affairs Minister Tony Burke and Foreign Affairs Minister Senator Penny Wong especially, will forever be held in international contempt.

The Bondi Massacre was not an isolated accident.

The Albanese government’s negligence in failing to protect the public and Australian Jewry against rising libellous political hate, its misjudged failures in foreign policy that stoked it, and its domestic policies to reengineer Australian society without measures to ensure harmony in the acceptance of Australian values, are all now part of a crime story.
