Australian Jewish boy forced to kiss Muslim classmate’s shoes gets threats
2019-10-11
[IsraelTimes] Reports say 12-year-old boy warned he’ll be slaughtered and asked if he wants to ’talk about suicide.

A Jewish boy who was forced to kneel and kiss the shoes of a Moslem classmate has been sent threatening text messages.

The messages were sent Friday after a photo of the incident were splashed across the front pages of newspapers in Australia and around the world, the Daily Mail reported. The photo was first published by the Australian Jewish News.

The messages told the 12-year-old boy that he would be slaughtered and asked if he wanted to "talk about suicide," according to the report.

Victoria Police confirmed to the Daily Mail Australia that they were investigating a report of such text messages but would not comment further.

Dvir Abramovich, chairman of B’nai B’rith’s Anti-Defamation Commission, called the threats "vile and deplorable." He said the boy’s parents now want a broader inquiry into anti-Semitism in schools.

Abramovich has helped the family to relocate the boy from Cheltenham Secondary College in suburban Melbourne to a Jewish school.

The incident did not take place on the school’s campus. Reports said a group of older students threatened the boy with violence if he did not comply.

#6   Feel for the kid.

Absolutely, but I won't be expending the least twinge of sympathy on the parents until they've publicly addressed their past and present beliefs on confiscation, immigration, curriculum, "justice reform" and so forth. Tired of this, "Oh my goodness, antisemitism! Right here in River City! What an astoundingly unprecedented, unpredictable, and deplorable occurrence! Government must do something immediately!" stuff.

#5  "Children are the mirrors of our souls, and the bringers of truth."

"So you are saying this kid has no faith in the legal or social community standards that he will have equal protection, freedom, and legal rights to resist or retaliate against another member who is actively working against those standards of behavior?"

"Fok the jew."

Feel for the kid. For the next time, and there now will be, he needs to carry an awl and sticker it right above the talus.

#3  IMO, since Islam doesn't "Render into Caesar ..." it's not entitled to the protection under religious freedom. Islam should be treated as Communism, or Nazism, or Environmentalism.

#2  This is why I advocate the disempowerment and active oppression of muslims. They don't deserve rights. While a person of any religion or persuasion can live peaceably with others, a muslim cannot. You show kindness to a few of them, another few shall come and defraud/harass/stab you. They teach their sons that it's good to bully others and works for the good of their entire society.

Bear with a measly number of them for a decade or two and your own citizens are fucked. Fucked. States that allow muslims equal rights are fools.
