The bullets are flying again

[WhyCzar]

a number of factors including political polarization

Problem. Reaction. Solution.

As Em Hilton wrote for the Israeli outlet +972
“It is obscene how quickly the right has seized on this horror to advance an Islamophobic, anti-Palestinian agenda. And it is disgusting to see Israel’s politicians almost gleeful at the opportunity to distract from their genocidal onslaught in Gaza by using our pain and grief as a political weapon.”

As The Intercept’s Natasha Lennard wrote
“It’s all done in the name of fighting antisemitism by conflating the worst kinds of violent anti-Jewish bigotry, like what we saw in Bondi Beach, with any criticisms of Israel and its actions. To so much as say Palestinians ought to have basic human rights, in this view, becomes a deadly attack on Jewish safety.”

Most of the imperial alliance nations appear to receive co-ordinated instructions for propaganda as well as identical policy initiatives?

It certainly looks like a coordinated response:

New York City Mayor Eric Adams

It was a horrific event, but I don’t see how using those words is going to help stop the violence.
