Rabbi slams Australia over Bondi murder of two Jewish leaders, one with ‘deep US ties’

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
A senior New York rabbi has condemned Australia’s «inaction» after a Hanukkah celebration on Bondi Beach was shattered by a mass shooting that wounded 40 and killed at least 15 people, including two prominent rabbis.
Rabbi Schmaya Krinsky of the Chabad-Lubavitch World Headquarters in New York City, said the attack, carried out by a father and son, reflected a growing climate of antisemitism in Australia that authorities had failed to confront.
«As well as Rabbi Eli Schlanger, we have now learned that Chabad Rabbi Yaakov Levitan has succumbed to his wounds. May his memory also be a blessing,» Krinsky told Fox News Digital.
«Jewish people around the world right now are uneasy, but they are defiant,» he said. «Every incremental escalation of antisemitic language that is tolerated has a direct, and now, deadly, consequence, and must no longer go unchecked.»

«Australian authorities need to act with alacrity and stamp out both the acts and the rhetoric that normalize antisemitism,» Krinsky added.
The tragic mass shooting Dec. 14 came when two gunmen opened fire on a large «Chanukah by the Sea» event near Campbell Parade at Bondi Beach.
The attack, reportedly being investigated as a terrorist incident by police, included improvised explosive devices found in one suspect’s vehicle, as previously reported by Fox News Digital.

The elder assailant was killed at the scene and his son was taken into custody in critical condition.
Krinsky, who was also in Melbourne in July when a synagogue arson attack took place at the East Melbourne Synagogue, said he had already seen the «unease» in Australia growing firsthand.
«I witnessed firsthand the unease and concern felt by many within the Australian Jewish community amid the rise in antisemitic incitement, and their sense that the response from the authorities was inadequate, he said.

«At that point, there was a feeling that the Jewish community in Australia has been increasingly uneasy with what they feel is the lack of a strong enough response to these acts.»
Schlanger, 41, who was one of the first deceased victims to be identified, was assistant rabbi at Chabad of Bondi and an organizer of the beach event.

«While each Chabad center operates independently, they function under our global umbrella organization,» Krinsky clarified. «There are no words to underscore the anguish and heartbreak caused by this gut-wrenching tragedy.»
«Rabbi Schlanger was among the victims of this barbarism,» he added. «He had deep ties to the United States and studied here, he has family here and although the attack took place far away, this Hanukkah we feel him closer than ever.»
«He was younger than I am, and we attended the same institutions of learning, though at different times,» Krinsky noted. «He dedicated his life to living in communities around the world, far away from home, inspired by the Rebbe’s teachings and vision.

Schlanger, born in the U.K., married Chaya, the daughter of prominent Australian Rabbi Yehoram Ulman.
«Following their marriage, some 18 years ago, they moved to Sydney to help grow the community and bring the beauty and spirit of the Jewish tradition to life for many in the Sydney Jewish community,» Krinsky explained. «He would have found some place to move to go about the work that he had he wanted to dedicate his life to.»
As the world responded, Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese condemned the attack as an «act of pure evil,» according to The Associated Press.
«We are crushed for the families who were celebrating the Festival of Light on Bondi Beach,» Krinsky said.

A statement released by Chabad Lubavitch Headquarters in New York said, «Let us be clear: this was a treacherous act of terror – an attack on the community, on goodness, and on light itself. It reflects a climate in which Jew hatred has been allowed to grow and to turn violent. That reality must be confronted.»
«We will honor the lives taken by enhancing Jewish practice, pride and visibility. May their light rise from this sorrow, and their memory be a blessing to us all,» the statement read.

PHOTOS: Anti-ICE agitators dox agents by sending warning postcards to neighbors

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
EXCLUSIVE: Activists and agitators opposed to enforcement of federal immigration laws have found a new, intrusive way to dox or leak personal and identifying information of ICE and CBP agents, the Department of Homeland Security exclusively told Fox News Digital Tuesday.
Immigration agents continue to face an escalating 8,000% increase in death threats and a 1,300% increase in assaults since President Donald Trump took office in January 2025, according to DHS.
An ICE agent living in Wake County, North Carolina, was doxxed in recent days, as evidenced by postcards sent to the officer’s neighbors with language suggesting they needed to be warned of his presence on their block.
«Beware, your neighbor is an ICE agent. Immigration enforcement lives next door,» the postcard said in billboard-style font festooned with a generic image of a federal agent and a mock-up of an ICE badge addressed to a resident in Raleigh.
DEMOCRATIC OFFICIALS, TIKTOKERS, LIBERALS TAKE THEIR ANTI-ICE RHETORIC TO THE NEXT LEVEL

The message section of the postcard shared with Fox News Digital showed what appeared to be a still shot from CCTV footage depicting a Black federal immigration agent. DHS blurred the agent’s face, which was not blurred in the original mailing.
DHS Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis told Fox News Digital the doxxing only adds to threats because agents «risk their lives every single day to remove murderers, pedophiles, rapists, terrorists and gang members from American neighborhoods.»
Fox News Digital also noticed fine print on the doxxing postcard’s postage stamp indicating it was sent «presorted first-class,» a special subset of USPS business mail that requires the sender to mail at least 500 pieces, each weighing 3.5 ounces or less.
Presorted first-class also requires more than typical local «junk mail» granted presorted standard postage, which indicates at least 50 such letters or postcards.
That detail indicates that hundreds of such postcards were disseminated around the country.
THE FAR-LEFT NETWORK THAT HELPED PUT ALEX PRETTI IN HARM’S WAY, THEN MADE HIM A MARTYR
«Comparing ICE day-in and day-out to the Nazi Gestapo, the Secret Police and slave patrols has consequences,» Bis said Tuesday. «The men and women of ICE are fathers and mothers, sons and daughters. They get up every morning to try and make our communities safer.
«Like everyone else, they just want to go home to their families at night. The violence and dehumanization of these men and women who are simply enforcing the law must stop.»

The news comes weeks after identifying information for a reported 4,500 ICE and USBP employees was allegedly leaked by a DHS whistleblower to an Irish national who runs a website called the «ICE list.»
After the shooting death of Renee Good in January, Dominick Skinner received the massive dataset, The Daily Beast reported. The outlet quoted the website administrator as saying information about ICE agents’ identities flooded in.
Some people told him their neighbors were allegedly immigration agents, while hotel and bar staff reportedly sent him sticky notes, according to the outlet.

Skinner, who now lives in the Netherlands but has American family, told the outlet the website was not supposed to turn into a database but suggested it was a response to then-Secretary Kristi Noem warning people stateside they could be prosecuted for doxxing.
Anyone who receives similar postcards or paraphernalia doxxing DHS agents is advised to contact ICE’s tip line at (866) DHS-2-ICE or (866) 347-2423.

Las memorias de una feminista millennial sobre el poliamor pueden ser desgarradoras

Hace dos años, Megan Agnew, redactora de The Sunday Times en Londres, causó furor en internet con su perfil certero e inquietante sobre Hannah Neeleman, una exbailarina que se mudó a una granja en Utah con su esposo, tenía —en ese momento— ocho hijos y se convirtió en una exitosa influencer del movimiento tradwife. El artículo resultaba llamativo por la disonancia entre la historia que Neeleman y su esposo intentaban contar —la realización personal a través de la tradición— y los detalles que insinuaban una realidad más oscura.
“Daniel quería vivir en los grandes parajes salvajes del Oeste, así que lo hicieron; quería ser agricultor, así que lo son; le gustan las citas nocturnas una vez por semana, así que salen”, escribió Agnew. “No quería niñeras en la casa, así que no las hay”. Hannah bajó la voz al confesar que durante uno de sus partos, cuando Daniel no pudo estar presente, le pusieron una epidural. Habló con nostalgia de la carrera de danza que abandonó. Daniel le comentó a Agnew que, en ocasiones, Hannah se encuentra tan exhausta que pasa una semana en cama. En Instagram, algunos usuarios le pedían a Hannah que parpadeara dos veces si necesitaba ayuda.
Las memorias Adult Braces de Lindy West, que han generado amplio debate, evocan una inquietud similar, aunque con la política en sentido opuesto. West había sido una figura destacada del feminismo digital de los años 2000 y un símbolo de la positividad corporal; su anterior autobiografía, Shrill, fue adaptada a una serie de televisión. Pero detrás de esa fachada, revela su nuevo libro, sufría un dolor extraordinario, con relaciones distorsionadas tanto con su cuerpo como con su esposo. Aunque ahora afirma haber encontrado paz y empoderamiento tras acceder a la exigencia de su esposo de tener un matrimonio poliamoroso, su relato no resulta del todo convincente.

No sorprende que algunos interpreten “Adult Braces” como una crítica a las creencias progresistas de West. Un ensayo en The Atlantic sobre el libro llevaba el título “La muerte del feminismo millennial”. The Wall Street Journal declaró: “El progresismo destruye a sus siervos más leales”. Pero interpreté el libro de West como una advertencia sobre la autoanulación femenina. Esa tendencia suele celebrarse en sectores conservadores, pero siempre ha estado presente en la izquierda también. Prácticamente cualquier ideología puede utilizarse para hacer sentir a las mujeres que están fallando.
En textos anteriores, West presentaba su unión con el músico Ahamefule Oluo, conocido como Aham, como una especie de final de cuento de hadas feminista. “Mi boda fue perfecta, y estuve gorda todo el tiempo”, tituló una columna en The Guardian en 2015. Pero si la boda fue idílica, West revela en “Adult Braces” que el matrimonio no lo fue. Casi desde el principio, escribe, Aham condicionó la relación a que él pudiera acostarse con otras mujeres. Ella accedió porque no quería perderlo, pero sus aventuras la hicieron sentir una inseguridad insoportable.
Como West vivía en un entorno progresista donde la no monogamia es habitual, sentía una capa extra de vergüenza por no poder aceptar la vida sexual extramatrimonial de Aham. (“En ese momento, ser comprensiva con el poliamor parecía un imperativo creciente en los círculos progresistas”, escribe). Su angustia aumentaba por un fuerte rechazo hacia su propio cuerpo, que, según ella misma reconoce, contradice la imagen que había construido públicamente. “¿Crees que alguna vez sentí que merecía exigirle algo a un hombre?”, pregunta.

Para muchos lectores, incluido yo, parecía que Aham se aprovechó de la profunda falta de autoestima de West. Utilizó su ideología en su contra; West cuenta que Aham, que es mitad nigeriano, “creía que la monogamia era, en esencia, un sistema de propiedad”. No es la primera vez que un hombre de izquierda emplea el lenguaje de la liberación para traspasar los límites de una mujer. Tras la revolución sexual de los años 60 y 70, Ellen Willis describió cómo los hombres de la contracultura “intensificaron las ansiedades sexuales de las mujeres al equiparar la represión con el deseo de amor y compromiso, y exaltar el sexo sin emoción ni apego como el ideal”. Es un ideal que muchas mujeres sienten la presión de cumplir.
Pero West —o al menos la versión de West que narra “Adult Braces”— no logra ver la aparente manipulación de Aham. En cambio, el libro, que transcurre durante un largo viaje por carretera, describe cómo West aprende a aceptar el poliamor y llega a querer a Roya, la novia de Aham, con quien ahora mantiene una relación de tres.
Al final de “Adult Braces”, Aham, Roya y West viven juntos en una cabaña que perteneció a los padres de ella. Se declara feliz, aunque con un tono defensivo: “Si crees que me han lavado el cerebro y que en secreto soy infeliz, sinceramente no sé qué decirte”. Pero aunque se tome al pie de la letra su satisfacción, hay un trasfondo inquietante en la situación, uno que sería evidente si el libro fuera una novela y no unas memorias.

A lo largo de “Adult Braces”, West, que ahora tiene 44 años, hace referencia a sus dificultades con la adultez, en ocasiones con una voz deliberadamente infantil. “¡Solo soy un angelito suave que todos quieren!”, escribe en un momento. Describe cómo, al mudarse sola, le costaba cuidar de sí misma: “Cuando tienes 25 años, nadie se enoja si no limpias tu cuarto”. Le embargaron el auto porque olvidó pagar las cuotas. Cuando estaba deprimida, Aham tenía que obligarla a ducharse y a cepillarse el cabello. Se pregunta si es “una mujer que podría discernir sus propios sentimientos o un bebé que necesita que le digan cuándo divorciarse”. Uno de los mejores días del viaje, se tatúa la frase “good girl”.
West parece añorar el cuidado y la simplicidad de la infancia, y al final del libro encuentra una aproximación a eso. De niña, cuenta, quería vivir en la cabaña a tiempo completo, y ahora lo hace. Roya paga las cuentas puntualmente para que no caigan en agencias de cobro y mantiene relaciones con Aham cuando West no quiere. “Me encanta dormir en el cuarto de invitados y meterme en la cama con ellos en la mañana”, escribe West. “Me encanta cuando me arropan y me dejan jugar con el móvil hasta tarde”. Duerme con un gato de peluche. Es como si, sintiéndose lastimada, hubiera optado por retroceder a una etapa infantil.
Tras la publicación del artículo de Agnew, Neeleman grabó un video en el que decía estar sorprendida por haber sido retratada “como oprimida, con mi esposo como el culpable”, y aseguró que adora a su marido y la vida que llevan. Pienso que es posible creerle y también pensar que adaptó sus deseos a los de su esposo, como se les anima a hacer a muchas mujeres. Si West hizo lo mismo, no es culpa del feminismo millennial ni del liberalismo social. La política no siempre puede salvarnos de la necesidad autoaniquiladora de ser amadas, en los términos que sean.
