More Australian Capitulation To Islamic Terrorism

Disturbing news from the old country, with the second capitulation to terror in a week (the first being NSW Labor party adopting a motion to recognise the state of Palestine).

A LOCAL council has banned the construction of a synagogue in Bondi because it could be a terrorist target, in a shock move that religious leaders say has caved in to Islamic extremism and created a dangerous precedent.

The decision, which has rocked the longstanding Jewish community in the iconic suburb, was upheld in court this week as the nation reeled from the alleged airline terror threat and debate raged over increased security measures at airports and other public places.

The Land and Environment Court backed the decision by Waverley Council to prohibit the construction of the synagogue in Wellington St, Bondi — just a few hundred metres from Australia’s most famous beach — because it was too much of a security risk for users and local residents.

Jewish leaders are shocked the decision appears to suggest they cannot freely practice their religion because they are the target of hate by Islamist extremists — and that the council has used their own risk assessment of the threat posed by IS against it.

The head of the local Jewish community said the council and the court had effectively stifled freedom of religion and rewarded terrorism.

“The decision is unprecedented,” Rabbi Yehoram Ulman told news.com.au.

“Its implications are enormous. It basically implies that no Jewish organisation should be allowed to exist in residential areas. It stands to stifle Jewish existence and activity in Sydney and indeed, by creating a precedent, the whole of Australia, and by extension rewarding terrorism.”

NSW Jewish Board of Deputies chief executive Vic Alhadeff told news.com.au he had never heard of any other religious group being denied a place of worship just because they were targeted by outside extremists and that the move was a dangerous precedent.

“It’s a very sad day for Australia if an established community, which needs a house of worship, is refused permission to build it because of fear that others may pose a threat,” he said.

“This simply shows how we’re all losing our freedoms. Those who want us to be afraid are winning, and this ill-conceived judgment represents a dangerous precedent.”

This is the reality we live in – no matter where Jews live – even in a relatively relaxed, friendly country like Australia – the Islamic terrorists are gunning especially for us. And not because of Israel, but rather their ideology which reserves more hatred for the Jews than any other infidel. It is their hatred of Jews that influences their view on Israel, not the other way around.

What I want to see – besides this decision reversed – is the Australian Muslim community getting behind the Jewish community in solidarity.

      1. Yes, if the precedent is followed, then shopping malls, cafes and other places already targeted by islamic ‘extremists’ should similarly be refused planning permission – a dangerous precedent, as the article says.

    1. You think so? I think the results of the next election just might show an eagerness to buy their old tranquility back. It’s a lot easier to pay the Dane-geld than to take on the Dane, particularly where the political culture has been declaring for years that the Dane is the victim, and the Dane-geld is paid in Jews….
