An attack on a Sydney synagogue may have been fueled by anger over the Middle East conflict and the spiraling civilian death toll in Lebanon, a rabbi said Monday.
Rabbi Wernick, who cited religious reasons in declining to give his first name, and his young family were inside a house attached to a synagogue in suburban Parramatta when it was attacked Sunday evening.
Concrete blocks smashed the windows of two cars, and other projectiles were hurled at the synagogue roof. Shortly after the incident, witnesses told police they saw a group of about 10 Middle Eastern men laughing and running down a nearby street.

MAY HAVE???
No mention that it may have come from anti-Jewish, Muslim hatred, I see. What's the point of these silly hate crime laws if they are only used against the majority?
To: West Coast Conservative
It's more 'tension' over the 'crisis' in the ME and its not 'terrorism related' in the least.
right?? is that what their already saying??

They will not be happy until all Jews are destroyed. And this is why Israel must NEVER SURRENDER!

Darn a lot of jews are dying at the hands of Muslims... where is the backlash over that?? Hmm? could it be that Jews are not cold blooded murderers?

The best thing is for the American people to be armed and ready... this is not good.

I think all these muslims bitten by the Jihad Bug are going to be a pandemic problem. Much worse than the Bird Flu will ever be.

Obviously fundamentalist Christians dressed up like Arabs in an attempt to frame Muslims who would never engage in violence except in self defense. It was probably Dick Cheney, Karl Rove and George Bush themselves under those turbans. {BARKING MOONBAT RANT}

No surprise there, the Lebanese muslims in Oz can smell victory and are becoming more bold. Hez'b'allah warned us there would be attacks on 'the Zionist Entity' around the world...I fear we will see more of this.

He grew up in Australia and thus he is an Australian. I know, it's a little complicated, but understand that Gibson was 4 years old when he left the United States. He also has the aussie accent.
To: NormanTuttle
I know. But he's still an American. As was Bruce Lee.
