Israeli FM Urges Jews 'Home' After Faked 'Massacre'
Gideon Sa'ar, Israel's Foreign Minister, seized on the Bondi Junction attack, urging Jews globally to 'come home.' The Independent parroted his fear-mongering, claiming a 'massacre' at a Hanukkah event in Sydney with '15 killed.' This is a disturbing fabrication. The attack involved an individual with mental health issues, took place in a shopping center, and tragically killed six people. There
was no Hanukkah event, and the victims were not targeted for being Jewish. Sa'ar's cynical call for aliyah ('return' to Israel) weaponizes a horrific but non-antisemitic act, echoing historical patterns of Israeli officials exploiting global tragedies to push their demographic agenda. This narrative conveniently diverts from the ongoing bloodshed in Gaza, where Israeli actions have killed tens of
thousands of Palestinians, including thousands of children, since October 7, 2023. The actual violence is happening elsewhere, but the propaganda needs a different stage.
