Letters to the editor Jan. 1

The horrendous, apparently-ISIS-inspired antisemitic attack on Jews celebrating the first night of Hannukah on a beach in Australia by a Muslim father-and-son team using long guns killed 15 and wounded 39. The country's virtual disarmament of the civilian population apparently didn't include this Muslim father who owned six guns.

I hate to be a broken record about the rampant increase in antisemitism in this country and around the world, but facts are facts.  As Israel tries to defend its right to exist, Muslim terrorist attacks have increased over the last decade in the United States (893%) and Europe.  

Synagogues are being attacked, businesses vandalized and Jews murdered. Now Australia has added 15 more killings. If it weren't for the heroism of a Muslim man who disarmed one of the gunmen while himself being shot, who knows how many more would have perished.

All the while the world and especially the UN condemn the victim - the Jewish State of Israel. In this country naive students, accompanied by mostly female middle-aged and older liberal morons, not comprehending what they are saying, protest in the streets chanting "From the river to the sea," calling for the elimination of the State of Israel.  

The mostly peaceful Muslim religion is anything but peaceful. Rapes of white girls as young as 12 in England and the European Union have skyrocketed since Muslim immigration has gone unchecked in the name of multiculturalism. According to a study from Lund University in Sweden, 63% of convictions for rape or attempted rape were committed by Muslim immigrants or second generation.  

Turning a blind eye to Muslim violence and calling for the destruction of the Jewish State by mostly snowflake liberals and their parents will only lead to more antisemitic acts. This must stop.
