Rabbi slams Australia over Bondi murder of two Jewish leaders, one with ‘deep US ties’
AI Summary
Following a mass shooting at a Hanukkah celebration on Bondi Beach in Australia that killed at least 15 people, including two rabbis, a senior New York rabbi has criticized the Australian government's response to rising antisemitism. Rabbi Yehuda Krinsky of Chabad-Lubavitch World Headquarters condemned Australia's "inaction" and called for authorities to address antisemitic rhetoric and acts. The December 14th attack, carried out by a father and son, targeted a "Chanukah by the Sea" event and is being investigated as a terrorist incident. Rabbi Krinsky, who witnessed rising antisemitism in Australia firsthand during a July synagogue arson, expressed concern over the Jewish community's unease and perceived inadequate response from authorities. One of the deceased rabbis, Eli Schlanger, was an assistant rabbi at Chabad of Bondi and an event organizer.
