The problem with the Bondi Beach shooting “was not guns.” Rather, it was “letting people into the country whose culture is antithetical to the tradition and norms of that society.”
Victor Davis Hanson suggests “that there’s no need to investigate Islamophobia until” antisemitism is “eliminated” because that’s “a much greater problem, statistically.”
“If I say something negative about the Quran or Islam or the Muslim community, I might be hurt if I say something. And if I call a Jews’ name, you think a Jewish terrorist is going to kill me? No. Is it antisemitism? Yes. The ancient curse of Europe,” argues Hanson on Thursday’s edition of Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words:”

My outlook on the Universe is secular rather than religious. For me, arguments for the existence of any god–including Yahweh–are unpersuasive. Therefore, Jews who claim that they have been given a special relationship with Yahweh and a special entitlement to Palestine, are (as I see matters) merely self-awarding these benefits from their own arrogant racism.
Add to the above Israel's rapacious annexing of Palestinian lands since 1948, its late treatment of Gazans, its presumed goal of annexing both the West Bank and Gaza, and finally the possibility that Israel will adopt an expansion into Eretz Yisrael beyond current recognized borders of Palestine–then Anti-Semitism can be seen as the creation of Jews themselves. Anti-Jewish sentiment is simply a rational and moral outcome of experiencing Jewish beliefs and behaviors.
Confronting anti-Semitism therefore entails confronting the Jews themselves.
The leadership at Brown had been warned about the shooter days before he attacked- someone working at the college had noticed a strange man who appeared to be scouting out the college- this was reported and ignored- Then we have all heard of the homeless man living at the college- how was this even allowed on campus? But the man was sharper eyed than the police or the college security-
I've been a Tucker fan because I think he's right on the outsized influence of Israel on American politics, but he's lost me on his failure to address Islam as the major threat to the US. His "no collective judgement" is denying reality. Let's love our enemies as they invade our country, trash our traditions, refuse to assimilate, and steal our tax money just doesn't work in the real world.
But Tucker said being anti Islam is evil . According to Tucker most American issues are due to Israel
Good morning gentlemen
@Victor Davis Hanson, please don’t give Megyn Kelly the business of going on her show. She’s an amoral coward who refuses to confront evil with this vile hate coming from the right.
2,500,000 Christians have died in Ukraine since 2022, and guess what, Chuck Schumer and the gang has been financing most of the killings.
They are masters and MSM at hate speech (towards a russian people and christians in general).
We believe that the larger western world, including america, has turned a bad corner, and that all Jews should move to Israel. There is no future for Jews anywhere else.
Israel has killed 20, 000 plus Palestinians in the last two years. How many Jews were killed in the last two years.
The whole Israel country is antisemitic . They have been killing original Semite people for over 50 years = Palestinians
OT, sorta, but 🥹 https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=WTarKypGGNE&t=293s
Best insight always
Per Islam every Jew in the world is liable for the blasphemy of the existence of the Jewish State. Those Jews who are Dhimmis may be left to be killed last but there is no reprieve from the Final Solution.
Before Israel every Jew was liable for the death of Muhammad and before that the death of Christ.
2 BILLION muslims, many oil rich, compared to 15 million Jews…. No wonder Tucker Qatarlson, Bannon, Megyn Kelly & others lacking morals on the so called 'right', 'influencers' enable evil
Two other heroes, Boris and Sophia Gurman, tried to stop the terrorists at Bondi Beach. They disarmed one, but were both killed by the other.
Victor took the $7000. Nice
Nah.
It's outrageous that the Australian govt thinks the solution is taking people's hunting rifles away.
actually, it was the Right that introduced gun buybacks in Australia under John Howard
Bondi Beach = bond-eye" Beach — NOT — "bond-ee" Beach
Thanks Victor
Exactly Victor lays it out perfectly about the Australian Governments trying to deflect from their horrendous policies which lead to this and tolerated the weekly protests from pro Hamas sympathizers instead jailing or removing them from Australia they have all the laws in place and by their very own chants breached free speach.
Australia needs new Muslim -control, not new gun control
Thank you!
According to global crime data violence by gun, America is ranked 11th! All other ten nations don’t allow the citizens they supposedly represent to own firearms!
Does anyone else feel like all the playground monitors are now leading the country?
Nope. We arent buying this shit anymore. I am losing so much respect for VDH right now. Unbelievable.
The Australian PM is an idiot.
