Andrew Bolt: Anthony Albanese blind to how he’s helped unleash anti-Jewish terrorism
How useful it must be for Anthony Albanese to claim those terrifying Jews and firebombing synagogues are just paid by foreigners — but he’s a fool if he thinks the theory saves him.

Anthony Albanese still can’t see how he’s helped to unleash a catastrophe – anti-Jewish terrorism in our country.
No wonder the Prime Minister, under intense pressure, seized on the theory floated by Australian Federal Police commissioner Reece Kershaw that “overseas actors” were whipping it up.
“It is important that people understand where some of these attacks are coming from,” Albanese said on Wednesday.
“It would appear, as the AFP commissioner said on Tuesday, that some of these are being perpetrated by people who don’t have a particular issue, aren’t motivated by an ideology, but are paid actors.
“It’s unclear who or where the payments are coming from.”
How glad Albanese must be for anything which might suggest our nation’s Jew hatred has nothing to do with his anti-Israel rabble-rousing-inciting scum.
How politically useful if he can claim that the people terrifying Jews and firebombing synagogues, cars and even childcare centres “aren’t motivated by an ideology” like Islam, but are just paid by foreigners.
For operational reasons, Kershaw isn’t saying what information he’s got to back up his suggestion that “local criminals” may be paid by foreign players in cryptocurrency to attack Jewish targets here, but it’s not hard to guess who he seems to be talking about.
The opposition speculates it could be Iran, but I doubt the Iran embassy knows how to safely contact and pay local criminals to torch things.
But there are organisations which certainly do, already burning down scores of buildings in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Perth and Adelaide.
Middle Eastern crime gangs, especially from Victoria, are fighting over the illegal tobacco trade in a war that’s so far had about 200 shops set on fire, including 131 in Victoria and 14 in Sydney.
Many senior gang figures now live overseas, almost always in Muslim countries.
It’s a guess why they might now be burning Jewish targets. To pose as Muslim heroes? Please protectors overseas?
Or have they been recruited by some country to create havoc here?
In fact, Britain’s MI5 last year said Iran had used international drug traffickers and even low-level crooks for 20 plots targeting people in Britain.
Investigators in Germany and France last September said Iranian agents used European drug traffickers to spy on Jews in France and Germany.
Like I said, Kershaw won’t comment, but however glad Albanese of this theory, he’s a fool if he thinks it saves him.
“Overseas actors” haven’t bashed Jews in our streets, screamed abuse at Jews outside synagogues, chanted “where’s the Jews” outside the Sydney Opera House, preached Jew hatred in mosques, menaced Jewish students at universities, abused Jewish artists at performances and in a thousand different ways made Jews feel persecuted like never before in this country.
Even these “overseas actors” burning synagogues may well be Australians.
And now Albanese doesn’t understand how he’s making it all worse.
He should have known 15 months ago, on the day Hamas slaughtered 1200 Jews, that we’re in a war to defend Western civilisation.
That’s clear just from the protesters NSW police have arrested since that October 7 massacre – almost always Muslims, or Marxists or assorted haters of Australia, Israel and the West.
They’ve arrested 180 of them, 40 for specifically anti-Jewish offences. Jews or supporters of Israel don’t break laws and get arrested in those numbers.
But Albanese wouldn’t see it. Seemingly greedy for votes of Muslims and the hard Left, he betrayed Israel in the United Nations. He urged Israel to stop fighting for its survival. He gave tourism visas to 3000 Palestinians from Gaza.
He kept legitimising the Jew haters by attacking Israel, and now can only tut-tut about how they express that hatred.
He won’t even call out the trick Jew haters use to pretend they’re not really racists.
They say, no, they don’t hate Jews. They just hate Zionists – supporters of Israel, home of half the world’s Jews.
They then shamelessly repeat all the ancient Jew-hating smears, just substituting “Jews” for “Zionists”. Zionists control the world. Zionists control the media. Zionists love blood. Zionists murder babies.
What a failure Albanese has been.
Since Albanese is quoting the AFP, here’s former AFP Detective Superintendent David Craig, who summed up bluntly this week.
“I’ve served under six different PMs in the AFP, a lot of my time in counter terrorism, I’ve never seen such a spineless response to hatred and un-Australian behaviour by a PM.”
