Why did it have to take the deaths of 15 Australian Jews for people to stop harassing a Jewish business owner?

The sad thing is people refuse to acknowledge it until it is too late. While nice, the notes are nothing more than a version of "thoughts and prayers".

A Jewish-owned bakery in Sydney announced Wednesday that it is closing down due to near-constant antisemitic harassment and fears for staff and customers in the wake of the deadly mass shooting targeting a Hanukkah event at the city’s Bondi Beach.

Ed Halmagyi, a Jewish celebrity chef who owns Avner’s Bakery in the Surry Hills section of Sydney, said he was shutting the establishment after two years of being subject to threats and vandalism, including since Sunday’s attack, and reportedly told patrons he feared the eatery could be targeted by those seeking to “globalize” Palestinian terror.

“The world has changed. Our world has changed,” declared a poster displayed Wednesday in the window of the bakery, which sold bagels, babkas and other Jewish-themed foods.

“After two years of almost ceaseless antisemitic harassment, vandalism and intimidation directed at our little bakery, we have to be realistic about the threats that exist going forward,” the Avner’s announcement continued.

I am willing to bet there would be dozens of comments.

October 7th made a lot of masks slip and now they’re mad no one believes their bullshit lies that it’s all about the ME and not just their general hatred for Jews.

This ought to terrify people. To be so blind to the depravity of those who hate.
