I was appalled to hear about the attack at the Adass Israel Synagogue in Melbourne last night. We stand in solidarity with our Jewish friends both in Sydney and around the country. Just two weeks ago, we had that disgusting night of vandalism in Woollahra.
I have spoken to Jewish community leaders this morning and I know NSW Police have also been in contact. They will be increasing patrols and as well as high visibility taskings around keys places in Sydney.
You deserve to feel safe in your own city. If these acts are designed as a campaign of intimidation – they will fail.
