A Melbourne, Australia, synagogue was firebombed on Friday morning — with worshipers inside at the time. “Fire Rescue Victoria (FRV) crews were called to the scene around 4:10 a.m., finding the single-story synagogue engulfed in flames,” the Jerusalem Post reported. “According to ABC News, 60 firefighters and 17 firetrucks worked tirelessly to bring the fire under control within an hour.” Terrorists in Melbourne, Australia poured petrol on top of a synagogue and set it ablaze while Jews were still inside. Two people were taken to the hospital for severe burns. They’re burning Jews alive, again, just like on Oct 7. pic.twitter.com/6HqJLrIzQU — The Persian Jewess (@persianjewess) December 6, 2024 Masked men just tried to burn Jews alive inside a synagogue in Melbourne. Australia has seen some of the most vile antisemitism in the past year I’ve ever seen. The disease has spread across the West.

It has absolutely no place in Australia.” A synagogue getting lit alight was inevitable. This is the antisemitism stoked by a loud, self-righteous minority in Australia. The guilty know exactly who they are. They’ve incited this hate and are, in my view, directly responsible, but they’ll never own up to it. They’ll… — Osher Feldman (@OsherFeldman) December 6, 2024 Yet Albanese and his Foreign Minister, Penny Wong, abandoned Israel earlier this week, shifted the government’s position, and split with the U.S., endorsing a UN resolution that demanded Israel end its “unlawful presence in the Occupied Palestinian Territory as rapidly as possible” and “calls for the withdrawal of Israel from the Palestinian territory occupied since 1967, including East Jerusalem.” CHECK OUT THE DAILY WIRE HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE That resolution, which made no demand for Hamas to return the Israeli hostages it holds, would mean Israel would have to withdraw from Judaism’s holiest place, the Temple Mount, and the Western wall that served as a retaining wall around the Biblical Holy Temple. Opposition leader Peter Dutton slammed the decision, saying, “I think the prime minister stands condemned … it’s for votes. He sold the Jewish community out for ‘green’ votes.’ They have been prepared to sacrifice the wellbeing of the Jewish community here in Australia to do so.” A new poll from Accent Research and Redbridge Group found that Dutton would likely replace Albanese as Prime Minister next year. “It found the Dutton-led Coalition is on track to pick up at least nine seats and win an outright majority, pointing to a potential defeat for the Albanese government,” Sky News reported. “They’re hard-Left extremists, that’s what they are,” Michael Kroger, former Liberal Party president, said. “Albanese, Wong, these people are of the hard Labor Left. It’s time for the UN to sit down and tell the world: What type of Palestinian state are we looking at? What we know is this: It’s not going to be a democracy, right? Because Hamas and Fatah don’t have (legitimate) elections. There’s not going to be freedom of the press in a Palestinian state. They’re not going to be freedom of religion unless you’re a Sunni. They won’t recognize Israel’s right to exist. There’s no rights for gays; there’s hatred of Americans, there’s ‘Death to America, death to the West.’ … A Palestinian state, on the basis of everything I’ve seen, is going to be like an Iranian theocracy, run by the Sunni rather than the Shia.” Michael Kroger obliterates the government and the UN over their latest anti-Israel motion.

A dog who escaped from a plane at Paris Charles de Gaulle airport and caused the closure of two of the airport’s runways, has finally been found and reunited with owner after nine days. On November 19, a female dog named Amalka, owned by an Austrian tourist who flew to France through Air France from Vienna, escaped her carrier cage during an unloading operation, CBS News reports. “The animal has been spotted and approached several times, but it has not been possible so far to capture it,” Air France said. After Amalka’s escape, several search parties were launched, including at night and with Amalka’s owner’s presence, whose hotel costs at Charles de Gaulle were covered by Air France. Posters for the missing dog were even put up around the airport to alert staff. And then on Tuesday, November 26, authorities at the biggest and busiest airport in France closed two runways as they tried to capture Amalka. Airport police deployed a search drone on the same day in order to search for the missing pet. And their plan was to get close enough to the dog to be able to tranquilize it with a hypodermic needle, CBS News reports. After nine long days, Amalka was finally found and reunited with her owner. “After several days of intense searches, we are delighted to confirm that Amalka has been found and returned to her owner,” Air France said in a statement to AFP. According to a French daily newspaper, Le Parisien daily, Amalka was found in a park in Dammartin-en-Goele, a town close to the airport. After Amalka’s reunion with her owner, Air France reveals, “Both will be able to travel to their final destination soon.” Last year, a similar incident happened when airport staff at Atlanta Airport lost a passenger’s dog. While being transported to the plane, a staff accidentally opened the dog’s kennel, leading to the pooch’s escape. The dog went missing for almost a month, from August 18 to September 09, and was found by an animal welfare volunteer after he put up missing flyers for the dog around the airport.
