Immigration Made Australia a Tolerant Place Where Muslims Chant “Gas the Jews” Outside the Sydney Opera House

Immigration was supposed to make Australia a more multicultural and tolerant place. It’s not working out as planned.

Pro-Palestinian protesters were allowed to chant ‘gas the Jews’ and burn the Star of David in front of Sydney’s Opera House on Monday night – while a counter-demonstrator was arrested for attempting to fly the Israeli flag.

Police are now under fire for allowing the rally to go ahead – while telling Jewish Australians to ‘stay home’ for their own safety.

The rally, organised by the Palestine Action Group Sydney, saw vast numbers of pro-Palestine activists gather at Town Hall in Sydney’s CBD on Monday evening before marching to the Opera House where its sails were it up in blue and white in support of Israel.

In the end, the sails were only lit up for a short time and in muted colours.

Israeli supporters largely stayed away, with some watching the illumination from the other side of Circular Quay.

Cries of ‘Allahu Akbar’ (God is great in Arabic) and ‘death to the Jews’ rang out as some members of the crowd swarmed towards the police barrier, brandishing torn pieces of the Israeli flag – despite the rally organisers calling for protesters to respect the police.

Over 100 cops formed a ring of steel along the steps of the Opera House and didn’t intervene when flares or other projectiles were thrown at them.

Instead, they placed the lit flares in buckets of water as acrid smoke filled the air.

As protesters arrived at Town Hall earlier in the evening, a man clutching an Israeli flag was dragged away by three police officers for ‘disrupting the peace’ – before he even had a chance to unfurl it.

In an video of the incident taken by Daily Mail Australia, the man can be heard repeatedly saying ‘I’ve done nothing wrong’.

An officer told him: ‘You’ve been arrested in relation to a breach of the peace.’

In total, Daily Mail Australia witnessed three individuals attempt to fly an Israeli flag before being chased away by protesters or arrested by the police ‘for their own safety’.

Abigail Lane, 23, a social care student originally from Tasmania, had an Israeli flag with the word ‘peace’ taken from her by police.

‘A police officer came and snatched it out of my hands and said: “Why the hell are you going in there with that sign? What the hell do you think you’re doing?”,’ she said.

There’s free speech for Muslims to call for the murder of Jews. Anyone else had better run for their lives.

Hopefully Australians understand that, UNDER ANY CONDITION, they not object to this ‘multicultural delight’, lest they be charged with Hate Crimes.

Daniel Greenfield, a Shillman Journalism Fellow at the David Horowitz Freedom Center, is a New York writer focusing on radical Islam and leftism.

Mark Leach, an Anglican clergyman, posted about being chased away from the Anglican Cathedral.

This afternoon, in Sydney, I briefly waved an Israeli flag off to the side of a pro Palestian protest. I was on the steps of the Anglican Cathedral. I am an Anglican clergyman. I am the child of a German Jewish mother who fled the holocaust. I wanted to make a small stand against the genocidal hatred of Hamas being supported by the pro Palestinian mob. I wanted to show the Jews of Australia that Christians (who after all are simply followers of a Jew), would stand for them, and for Israel, in the face of such hatred and contempt. On this afternoon I was chased off the steps of the Cathedral. I ran, followed by a small mob of large angry Muslims hurling abuse at me. I ran onto George St and hid behind a police van.

This is what happens when a country is invaded and overrun. And I’m not talking about Israel here. You can have freedom, tolerance and multiculturalism. But not with Islam in the mix.

A discussion on Australian freedom of speech - or not!

What the heck is going on with Aussie police?! All officers involved SHOULD BE FIRED. Or has Australia become beholden to the murdering terrorists and their "leaders"? I know Australia has been moving left -- and therefor is becoming more antisemitic - for quite a while now, but had no idea it had gotten this bad.

Let me get this straight. Standing peacefully in public with an Israeli flag is a breach of the peace but screaming “gas the Jews!” is protected free speech.

Australia is lost.

It’s worse than that per the story: “flares or other projectiles were thrown at them” (the police) by the Hamas supporters. Apparently that is not a breach of the peace — if you are a Hamas supporter.

Yes, Australia is lost.

The world is becoming less civilized because we allow the uncivilized to live among us. I think refugees should be returned to their homes. Look at that vile creature from Somalia has done with the opportunity given to her.

I am so tired of ungrateful people.

“....When did my White people become such p****’s? ....”

They became that way because they know the “authorities”, those “authorities” they voted into office so they could get their noses into the taxpayer trough will arrest them.

None of such laws were intended to promote peace. Only dominance.

The early United States and the constitution forbade a state religion - based on what they saw of England and the Anglican Church.

Islam is another state religion, and as we can see, allegiance to it is greater than allegiance to the US.

No matter what swearing in ceremonies they may have.

This information also helps explain a more expanded version of why Biden and his goons and thugs are inviting the third world to flood into our country. It’s not just cheap labor to keep inflation down and wages low for working class American, or to add new democrat voters to the rolls, it’s also to bring terrorism to our country permanently.
