Setting a synagogue on fire with children inside is not “resistance” — it’s pure terrorism. If this is what the Palestinian cause stands for, the world should reject it without hesitation. 🔥🚫

They should be arrested immediately and brought up on charges for attempted murder of 20 people.

Mate this is not accurate. Firstly that video is from another incident LAST YEAR. Secondly, the arson attack last night was attempted by just 1 individual.

You don’t fight for one people’s freedom by trying to burn another’s alive. This is hate. Plain and simple.

I am starting to believe that the "pro palestinian" groups are even worse than the real palestinian.

This is HORRIFIC. I blame MSM entirely. Until it’s no longer fashionable to spew rabidly Antisemitic rhetoric, this will only get worse.

Shocking scenes as protesters storm an Israeli restaurant in Melbourne - as a Jewish synagogue is torched nearby. 5 July 2025 A group of anti-Israeli protesters have terrorised shocked diners by storming a restaurant in Melbourne's CBD - as an arsonist targeted a nearby synagogue. The chaotic scenes unfolded at the Israeli-owned Miznon eatery on Hardware Lane, where up to 20 protesters hurled chairs, food, and glassware at the venue while chanting 'Death to the IDF (Israel Defence Forces)'. Footage shared online showed the breakaway group throwing traffic bollards by passing cars and yelling expletives on their way to the restaurant after a separate protest involving 80 pro-Palestine in nearby Swanston Street. When the masked protesters arrived at Miznon, diners can be heard screaming as furniture and tables are overturned. Protesters were then seen clashing with police after dozens of officers arrived on the scene and shut down the laneway at both ends. One protester was arrested for hindering police and released on summons. 'Several other protesters were spoken to by police and had their identities clarified for the purpose of follow-up investigation,' a spokeswoman told Daily Mail Australia. 'Victoria Police continued to support the rights of Victorians to protest peacefully but will not tolerate the kind of anti-social and violent behaviour that was witnessed this evening.' The chaotic scenes shocked many diners and passers-by in the bustling precinct. Other restaurants in Hardware Lane were also damaged. 'They came in with their drums and their mic and stuff saying Miznon is not welcome here,' a diner told the Herald Sun. 'Then they started getting aggressive, throwing tomatoes, chairs, and glasses. They caused lots of damage to the businesses down here.' Just half an hour earlier, the East Melbourne Synagogue was set on fire, which police are treating as suspicious. A man entered the synagogue grounds on Albert Street about 8pm, poured a flammable liquid on the front door, and ignited it before fleeing on foot. About 20 worshippers, including children inside having dinner at the time were forced to flee the building. No injuries were reported. Firefighters quickly contained the fire, which prevented further damage.
