‘Act of terror’:

Yes, looks that way Bobby.

Islamic terrorism is relatively rare in western countries - compared to right-wing/white supremacist/ultra-nationalist terrorism - but it does happen.

Moreover, it should be condemned just as we all (well, some of us) condemn people like those who murdered 51 people in Christchurch.

Good and bad in every group, unfortunately.

So stabbing a bishop while allahu akhbaring - is that far right or far left?

Clearly a case of Islamist terrorism, and I condemn it unconditionally.

As I explained though, Islamist terrorism is relatively rare in western countries - compared to right-wing/white supremacist/ultra-nationalist terrorism - but it does happen.

It falls into a category of its own.

WTF?

Teenager arrested over Wakeley church attack
received good behaviour bond for previous knife crime.

The teenage boy arrested over last night's stabbing attack inside a Sydney church was placed on a good behaviour bond after facing court for a knife crime just three months ago.

ABC News has learned the identity of the 16-year-old boy, but has chosen not to publish his name.

The ABC can reveal the boy was charged with a range of offences,
including possessing a knife, in November last year after an incident at a Sydney train station involving other teenage boys.

The boy was found in possession of a flick knife and charged with being armed with a weapon with intent to commit and indictable offence, stalking and/or intimidation and recklessly destroy or damage property.

He was on bail until his last court appearance in January, where his case was "proven" but dismissed with a good behaviour bond.

The ABC understands at the time of last night's attack he was no longer subject to any court orders or supervision by law enforcement.

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-04-16/who-is-bishop-mar-mari-emmanuel-wakeley-c...

Church - Assyrian orthodox Christ the Good Shepherd

In short:
Bishop Mar Mari Emmanuel is a prominent conservative leader of the Assyrian orthodox Christ the Good Shepherd Church.
He gained a significant online following during 2020 as an outspoken opponent of COVID-19 lockdowns.
His popularity has generated online fan pages with thousands of followers.

Bishop Emmanuel grew up in Baghdad before moving to Australia as a child with his family.

In 2014, the church where the stabbing attack took place broke away from the main Assyrian Church of The East, after the bishop was ex-communicated over theological differences.

His church's website says he became a priest in 2009 and was ordained as a bishop in 2011.

His sermons are broadcast on Christ the Good Shepherd Church's Facebook and YouTube channels, which have a combined following of 240,000.

Bishop Emmanuel is also known for preaching anti-LGBTQ views, describing homosexuality as a "crime in the eyes of God".

He has also given sermons criticising non-Christian religions, including Judaism and Islam.

In another he said that "Islam flourished and expanded with the sword".

He recently delivered sermons on the conflict in Gaza, calling for peace.

Early reports suggest at least four others were also allegedly stabbed in the ensuing tussle.

The alleged attack sparked unrest outside the church as hundreds gathered in protest.

Groups of police officers, completely outnumbered, huddled together as bottles and bricks were hurled at them.

Diversity is their strength.

Some serious political analysts like Scott Ritter, George Galloway, etc. suggest that this was orchestrated by the Mossad (including MI6 & CIA) through their proxy ISIS to divert attention from the slaughter of Palestinians in Gaza and create a split in the Arab and other communities, similar to the terrorist activity in Russia. They predict that more such terrorist acts can be expected soon.

Do we need to be always politically correct.

Social media users warned after Sydney conspiracies

By William Summers and Marty Silk
Updated April 16 2024

A wave of misinformation flooded the internet following Sydney's shopping centre massacre, prompting a plea to pause-and-think before posting.

Within hours of Saturday's deadly rampage at Westfield Bondi Junction, social media users uploaded distressing footage of the attack while others falsely claimed the carnage was a "false flag" event secretly orchestrated by shadowy figures.

He said it could also be comforting for some to believe disastrous events were planned instead of random.

"Telling a story about who's behind it and which powerful actors are really doing this ... that's more comforting than the thought that a random person can inflict that kind of carnage."

"There's something perversely calming about conspiracy explanations in that they do actually give us back the possibility of control."

What do you think Bobby? What will you tell IITL? What will you tell Labor majority government?

Terrorist attack... street riots... churches and mosques taking precautions... cops on the beat...

The joys of multi-culturalism... all those simmering pots boiling to a head after Albo's failed Voice showed how to split a country and then turn to violence and insurrection to try to get - and get - what you demanded... lawfare hand in hand with warfare....

And none dare call it Insurrection or Civil War while Australia burns... the Australian Civil War is apparently all fine as long as only the First Lairds take part in it and send their foot soldiers out every night to burn and loot and slay....
