No more Nazi thrills for you! Authentic Jew @authenttorahjew · 6m Rabbi Yaakov Shapiro's comment quoted at the DOJ Religious Liberty Commission, on how Zionism harms Jews in America: "American Jews are increasingly treated as less fully American—our loyalty questioned, our belonging made conditional—because Zionist ideology falsely claims Israel is the nation-state of Jews everywhere and that every Jew is nationally tied to it. "This framing is anti-Semitic at its core: it strips us of our identity as Americans, recasts us as foreigners in our own country, and arms antisemites with accusations of divided loyalties and collective guilt for actions we neither chose nor control. "No other foreign country does this—no sovereign state claims to politically represent an entire worldwide group defined by religion or heritage and bind its members to its deeds—yet Jews alone bear this unique, unjust burden. That dangerous lie must be rejected openly and firmly. "The remedy is clear: civic education that teaches unconditional American belonging through citizenship alone—not ethnicity, heritage, or any fabricated foreign tie. We are Americans, full stop—and we reject any doctrine that treats us otherwise." Dr. Ben Carson responds: "You know, I've known a lot of Jewish people, worked with a lot of Jewish people, some of the finest people that I know sitting in the front row here, Dr. Henry Brim. 25 years. The chairman of neurosurgery at Johns Hopkins is one of the kindest, fairest people I've ever worked with, and I wonder why do people really think that Jews are a separate entity in the United States of America? "Jews have been here since the very beginning. They, too, were interested in a place where they could practice their religion freely. You know, when George Washington's army was about out of cash, it was him, Solomon a Jew, a very rich Jew, who gave up virtually all of his money and encouraged other people to give, which saved the Union. I don't know that we would've ever become a country without the input of Jews. So that's something we need to remember. "We need to remember that during the Civil Rights movement, who was standing right there with the rest of us who were interested in freedom for everybody in our society? It was the Jews. "Many of them died for the cause of civil rights, and I just want to make that point, that they are not a separate entity from Americans. They're a very important part. And how do we get people to recognize that and not think of Jews as something separate?"
CO26023 | The Bondi Attack: ISIS-Inspired Antisemitic Terrorism in Australia Joshua Roose 09 February 2026 download pdf Listen to this article 8 min SYNOPSIS The December 2025 assault on a Jewish community gathering at Bondi Beach outside Sydney, Australia, was the deadliest terrorist attack in recent Australian history. It exposed legislative and security gaps, failures in threat assessment and protective security, and political inaction amid escalating antisemitism. It also serves a warning for Western counterterrorism and social cohesion policies. COMMENTARY On the evening of December 14, 2025, at around 6.45 pm, a father and son pair inspired by Islamic State (ISIS) ideology carried out a coordinated attack on a Jewish community Hanukkah gathering at Bondi Beach in Sydney. The event, attended by around 1,000 people, was held in open parkland with minimal cover. The attackers arrived by car, displayed an ISIS flag across the windscreen, and initiated the assault using simple but effective military tactics. After throwing four improvised explosive devices that failed to detonate, Sajid Akram advanced on the crowd armed with straight-pull shotguns, firing at close range. His son, Naveed Akram, provided cover from higher ground with a .308 straight-pull rifle, enabling sustained fire across the site. Several bystanders bravely attempted to intervene. Three were killed, and one was seriously wounded. A police officer at the scene returned fire and was seriously wounded. The attack was stopped about six minutes after it began when a plainclothes police officer, acting independently and armed only with a pistol, fatally shot Sajid Akram and wounded Naveed Akram. Fifteen people were killed; fourteen members of the Jewish community – including a Holocaust survivor, two rabbis and a 10-year-old-girl – along with a non-Jewish photographer. Failure in Threat Assessment and Intelligence The Bondi attack exposed the shortcomings of Australia’s firearms and protective security frameworks, which remain heavily shaped by a lone-actor threat model dating back to Port Arthur in 1996 where a gunman armed with two semi-automatic rifles killed 35 men, women, and children at a tourist site in the state of Tasmania. This was the deadliest mass shooting in Australian history. Acting in tandem, the Bondi attackers exploited legal grey zones by using high powered straight-pull shotguns designed to circumvent bans on pump-action weapons. They achieved sustained close range, improvised micro-combined arms rifle and shotgun fire with these legally obtained weapons to maximise casualties. Irrespective of the failure of the improvised explosive devices, the attack demonstrated how legislative intent can be circumvented through tactical adaptation. Equally alarming was the ease of preparation. Despite Naveed Akram’s documented associations with extremist Salafi preacher Wissam Haddad and the Street Dawah network, the pair retained lawful access to firearms through Sajid Akram’s licensing (from 2023), travelled to Mindanao in the Philippines in October 2025 in an apparent attempt to establish contact with Islamic State, rehearsed tactical shooting techniques in rural New South Wales, and conducted hostile reconnaissance of the Hanukkah celebration site in Bondi Beach days before the attack. When the assault began, the attackers were significantly better armed than local police, who only had pistols. These failures intersected with shortcomings in threat assessment. The Hanukkah gathering was publicly advertised, and its intersection with Bondi Beach – a renowned landmark – gave the event particular symbolic significance. Although the Hanukkah celebrations were held in an exposed environment, it seems to have been security-assessed using a generic crowded-places framework rather than one tailored to a markedly heightened threat environment. This is despite reports that the Jewish Community Security Group (CSG) had identified a heightened risk during Hanukkah. In the preceding months, pro-Palestinian protests had targeted Bondi and surrounding suburbs with significant Jewish populations, sometimes involving aggressive behaviour. Across Australia, antisemitic incidents had escalated sharply, including graffiti, harassment of Jews, and designated terrorist activity linked to the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, culminating in the expulsion of the Iranian embassy. Despite this context, access to the Bondi Hanukkah gathering appears to have been unrestricted. Reports indicate that three police personnel were present at or near the event, but this did not deter the attackers, who engaged police, wounding two. The attack also raises broader questions about intelligence sharing and coordination. Previous events, including the Dural caravan incident, had already highlighted gaps and tensions in how threat information is synthesised across Australian federal and state agencies. In this case, the failure to assess familial, ideological, and logistical risk factors holistically appears to have obscured the danger posed by lawful firearm access within an extremist-related network. Political Context and Inaction Bondi took place against a backdrop of sustained political equivocation amid the rising tide of antisemitism. Following the protest at the Sydney Opera House on October 9, 2024, where offensive chants targeting Jews were reported, the official response was marked by dispute and delay, resulting in an inquiry that produced little accountability. Over the past two years, antisemitic rhetoric has increasingly been reframed as legitimate political expression through the language of anti-Zionism. That shift matters. The attackers themselves used the term “Zionists” in their video recorded before the attack, illustrating how the toleration of specific political language can distort threat assessment and underplay the potential of extremism and violence. These developments have unfolded within a context of electoral calculation, as the government seeks wider community support in critical constituencies, and demonstrates a more inclusive political posture. Seemingly, this has failed to moderate the extremist sentiment and may have emboldened it. Where to from Here After an initial delay and a raft of new laws targeting hate and gun violence, the Australian government has announced a “Royal Commission into Antisemitism and Social Cohesion” to report in November 2026, alongside a security review led by former ASIO Director-General Denis Richardson, with a preliminary report due in April 2026. These processes will matter only if they address the structural failures exposed by Bondi terror rather than focusing narrowly on operational errors. The central question is whether Australia is willing to recalibrate its threat models, protective security frameworks, and political thresholds for action in an environment of sustained antisemitic and jihadist mobilisation. The Bondi attack must be understood as a critical warning for Western democracies facing similar challenges.
