ABC Journalist Denies the Religious Reality of the Bondi Beach Terror Attack
On Sunday, two Islamic terrorists opened fire on a crowd of Jews on Bondi Beach, Sydney, Australia. They killed 15, including a ten-year-old girl, and wounded 40 others. The men were inspired by ISIS, and they targeted Jews.
Authorities in Australia and elsewhere predictably responded by blaming everything and anything but Islam for the terror attack. Australia vowed tougher gun laws and more hate speech legislation. London Mayor Sadiq Khan blamed President Trump’s rhetoric and “anti-Muslim” bigotry.
But ABC News journalist Laura Tingle may just take the cake on this one. See, Tingle thinks religion had nothing to do with the Bondi Beach terror attack.
“Have got nothing to do with religion,” Tingle said. “Their actions are not based on their religion.”
Tingle’s remarks have been roundly criticized and condemned for “denying reality.”

This is also accurate.
The terrorists targeted Bondi Beach because of their religion, and because of the religion of the Jews celebrating Hanukkah on that beach.
Can’t hurt to make your voices known.
And when they kill all the Jews, the Islamists will move on to everyone else. Which is why we must stand and say “never again” is now.
