David Lockwood is making assumptions re attacks

Kath Kelly, Canberra, Jan 24, 2025

David Lockwood, in his article on the anti-semitic attacks against synagogues, says, “we can assume that both these incidents of vandalism (sorry, ‘terrorism’) were misguided attempts to protest against the Israeli genocide against Palestine.”

That assumption may be correct, but it is also possible that the extreme right or nazis were responsible, hoping to encourage disharmony in the community.

All the anti- semitic attacks must be condemned and certainly don’t help the Palestinian cause. Not completely out of the question is that some may have been done by zionists or their supporters, hoping that Palestinian supporters will be blamed.

I hope the perpetrators are caught so that we can know who is responsible.
