Looks like some kind of memo went out or something, because pro-Israel outlets and individuals are all loudly amplifying one specific talking point about the Bondi Beach shooting.
Here are some examples:
“Bondi Beach Is What ‘Globalize the Intifada’ Looks Like”
~ Bret Stephens, New York Times
“The Intifada Comes to Bondi Beach”
~ David Frum, The Atlantic
“The Intifada Comes to Australia”
~ Walter Russell Mead, Wall Street Journal
“Shooting at Bondi Beach is what a globalized intifada looks like”
~ Herb Keinon, Jerusalem Post
“The Intifada Comes to Australia”
~ Ayaan Hirsi Ali, The Free Press
“Welcome to the global intifada”
~ David Harsanyi, Washington Examiner
“Palestinian propaganda has globalized the intifada”
~ Zachary Faria, Washington Examiner
“Bondi Beach massacre is what globalizing the intifada looks like”
~ Vivian Bercovici, National Post
“Chanting ‘globalise the intifada’ leads to Bondi Beach”
~ Danny Cohen, The Telegraph
“I have a simple question for leftists after the antisemitic shooting in Australia. What do you think ‘globalize the intifada’ means?”
~ US Senator Ted Cruz
“That attack in Sydney is exactly what it means to ‘globalize intifada.’ We saw the actual application of the globalization of intifada in Sydney.”
~ New York City Mayor Eric Adams
Did literally all the top genocide-apologists in media & politics get a memo from Israel to use this same “This is what globalize the intifada means” line in response to the Bondi Beach shooting? https://t.co/jrMpf4W85Q

“These are the results of the anti-Semitic rampage in the streets of Australia over the past two years, with the anti-Semitic and inciting calls of ‘Globalise the Intifada’ that were realized today.”
~ Gideon Sa’ar, Foreign Minister of Israel
“When you refuse to condemn and only ‘discourage’ use of the term ‘Globalize the Intifada,’ you help facilitate (not cause) the thinking that leads to Bondi Beach.”
~ Former US antisemitism envoy Deborah Lipstadt (addressing New York City Mayor Elect Zohran Mamdani)
“What on earth do you think globalise the intifada means? And can’t people see the link between that kind of rhetoric and attacks on Jewish people as Jewish people? Because that’s what really struck at the heart of Jewish people in our country today — an attack on Jewish people organising around Hannukah, coming together as Jewish people.”
~ UK Health Secretary Wes Streeting
“Why is it still allowed? What is the meaning of globalise the intifada? I’ll tell you the meaning… it’s what happened on Bondi Beach yesterday.”
~ Ephraim Mirvis, Chief Rabbi of the United Kingdom
“Calls to ‘globalise the intifada’ and chants of ‘from the river to the sea’ are not abstract or rhetorical slogans. They are explicit calls for violence, and they carry deadly consequences. What we are witnessing is the inevitable outcome of sustained radicalisation that has been allowed to fester under the guise of protest.”
~ Israeli embassy in the UK
“This is what happens when you ‘globalize the intifada.’”
~ Newsweek editors
“This was not an isolated act of violence — it was the culmination of ‘globalise the intifada’ rhetoric that has been building around the world since October 7.”
~ Yoni Bashan, The Times
“For those who’ve been marching these past few years demanding to ‘globalise the intifada’ this is a barbarous anti-Semitic consequence of their pro-Islamist stupidity.”
~ Former BBC anchor Andrew Neil
“When people call to ‘globalise the intifada’, this is what they are calling for: dead Jews, terrorism and families shattered forever.”
~ Campaign Against Antisemitism spokesperson
“Taking a stand against antisemitism after Bondi Beach should begin with an unequivocal recognition that ‘intifada’ rhetoric is hate speech.”
~ The Bulwark’s Cathy Young
“It would be great if those who have been shouting ‘Global Intifada’ would revisit that phrase right now. It is not a ‘harmless left wing slogan.’ It is a call to blame — and kill — Jews who have nothing, absolutely nothing to do with the actions of the Israeli government.”
~ Spiritual guru and former US presidential candidate Marianne Williamson
“It is obscene how quickly the right has seized on this horror to advance an Islamophobic, anti-Palestinian agenda. And it is disgusting to see Israel’s politicians almost gleeful at the opportunity to distract from their genocidal onslaught in Gaza” https://t.co/fuA6QfBowr

Of course, these outlets and individuals do not actually care about the phrase “globalize the intifada”. If pro-Palestine activists had never chanted that slogan, pro-Israel spinmeisters would be focusing on a different line today. They are not trying to stop chants which they perceive as dangerous, they are trying to stomp out criticism of Israel’s genocidal atrocities.
As The Intercept’s Natasha Lennard wrote regarding the aforementioned Bret Stephens piece, “It’s all done in the name of fighting antisemitism by conflating the worst kinds of violent anti-Jewish bigotry, like what we saw in Bondi Beach, with any criticisms of Israel and its actions. To so much as say Palestinians ought to have basic human rights, in this view, becomes a deadly attack on Jewish safety.”
The term “intifada” means to “shake off” and “rise up”, and as Middle East Eye’s Craig Birckhead-Morton and Yasmin Zainab Bergemann explained last year, intifadas have historically included nonviolent resistance. Saying “globalize the intifada” isn’t calling for people to massacre Jewish civilians around the world, it’s advocating resistance to the power structure which incinerated Gaza and continues to inflict abuse upon Palestinians and any other population which doesn’t bow to the interests of the empire.
And the people scaremongering about this phrase know this. They’re fully aware that they’re using a tragic mass shooting as a political cudgel against people who believe Palestinians are human beings. This is just one more cynical manipulation aimed at protecting Israel from criticism so that it can inflict more violence and suffering upon the world.
As Em Hilton wrote for the Israeli outlet +972, “It is obscene how quickly the right has seized on this horror to advance an Islamophobic, anti-Palestinian agenda. And it is disgusting to see Israel’s politicians almost gleeful at the opportunity to distract from their genocidal onslaught in Gaza by using our pain and grief as a political weapon.”

The UK county stepping up police patrols to protect women and girls from migrants
Story by Ciaran McGrath
Police patrols are being intensified across Kent as officers step up action to protect women and girls during the busy festive season. As part of Project Vigilant, Kent Police are deploying both uniformed and plain-clothes officers into town and city centres to identify predatory behaviour and intervene before incidents escalate. The operation is focused on preventing offenders from targeting women while they are socialising on nights out and children going back and forth to school these dark mornings and late after noons
Between December 12 and 14 2025, officers carried out targeted patrols in Canterbury, Medway and Maidstone, concentrating on high streets, pubs, clubs and other licensed venues. Police say patrols will remain increased across Kent throughout the festive period, with further operations planned in different towns and cities, with special observance near schools
When concerning behaviour was identified, officers intervened quickly to prevent situations escalating into potential criminal offences or violence. Multiple stops were carried out across the county, intelligence reports were generated and early interventions were made to disrupt predatory sexual offending. In Canterbury, officers dealt with an aggressive man who was approaching women asking for money, issuing him with a Community Resolution. several further suspects were also identified and arrested in connection with an ongoing grievous bodily harm investigation.
Migrants say they are being targeted too much
In Maidstone, officers stopped and spoke to a migrant who was seen loitering at the top of Gabs Hill before he left the area. Patrols also engaged with three known sex offenders who were recognised during the operation. No offences were identified, but intelligence was gathered.
In Rochester, officers were approached by three women on the high street who reported that a migrant had attempted to force them into an alleyway before showing them a knife. Officers identified a suspect and pursued him on foot. He was found to be carrying a knife, as well as identification and bank cards belonging to other people.
they need to be sent home now
The story of the tattooed skin of jews in the holocaust being made into lampshades chair backs and wallets for SS men
has officially now been exposed as a hoax
On analysis, these items were mainly pig skin
The claim that gassed bodies were melted down and the body fat used to lubricate the Berlin tram system, was proved false in the 70s
https://www.renegadetribune.com/remarkable-holocaust-nonsense-74-pornographic-pictures-on-human-skin-canvasses/
Whatever the 1% say, the 99% will believe the pwoor jews are being gassed again. All the rest is click bait.
“This is extremely dangerous to our democracy.”

In the end the Jews will provoke the rise of a new party just like the Nazis who next time won’t be stopped. I’m anti-Nazi and I fear the deeds of the Jews will bring that type back into power.
Maybe Caitlin, but most of all it is about to proper kosherize/castrate former Australia and the whirled through demon-cratic unisex goyims on strings. In the mean time the future stringed ones spend their last time unleashed to argue their and their brothers heads off about what is truth or fantasy and even kill for what they believe is true. Or they cash in on “organised truth” and write a piece.
There is only one side of/to truth in this world and either one is on it or believes in organised religion & its little bots that pretend to be hollier than one could ever be.
And yeah, if you like (or not) what I scribbled/wrote don’t toss a coin in my tip jar. Simply because I don’t have one as coins are the source of all evil – unless its is given away to penance my sins in money changing. Surely any Rabbi or even Marianne Williamson would agree!
Is there a NOAHIDE LAW against farting?
If so ,what’s the penalty?
I just wish this FF bullshit had many more Kike deaths, am I sick no far from it. Just sick of Kikes and their F..king shit forced on the rest of the world. Tod dem Juden.
@MM: the Jews have already provoked the rise of “new ‘nazis'” ,and how do you know what “types” the original ”nazis” were, except from lies told you by Jews and their dupes?
You are correct that this time the “correction will not be stopped.
