ABC star sparks controversy after question for Premier after anti-Semitic attack in Sydney READ MORE: Nat Barr highlights major detail about anti-Semitic attack By FREDDY PAWLE FOR DAILY MAIL AUSTRALIA Published: 22:36, 11 December 2024 | Updated: 23:44, 11 December 2024 e-mail 30 View comments An ABC Radio presenter has raised eyebrows after questioning NSW Premier Chris Minns over whether the attacks in the city's eastern suburbs on Wednesday morning were anti-Semitic. It followed the words 'Kill Israiel (sic)' being graffitied on a home next to a burning car in Woollahra, a prominent Jewish suburb in Sydney 's East, on Wednesday morning. Minns was quick to describe the incident as a 'deplorable anti-Semitic attack' that will be 'met with nothing less than the full force of the law'. ABC Sydney Breakfast's fill-in host, Chris Taylor , questioned the premier about his wording. 'Just on your wording in your statement this morning, what's your reasoning for branding the attack anti-Semitic and not anti-Israel? How do you make a distinction?' Minns responded: 'I think we would have to be wilful at this point to turn a blind eye to that sequence of events and suggest it's anything other than an anti-Semitic attack. 'And I want to make it clear if there was an attack on any other community group in NSW on the basis of their religion or on the basis of their nationality, then I would say exactly the same thing.' The host continued to press Minns on the issue. 'So if you're calling it anti-Semitic rather than just a political anti-Israel statement ... would you say anti-Semitism is at an all-time high in your experience?' The fill-in host for ABC Sydney breakfast, Chris Taylor (pictured), asked the premier how you 'make that distinction' between an incident that is 'anti-Israel' and 'anti-Semitic' A fill-in host for ABC Sydney has caused a stir after questioning NSW Premier Chris Minns (pictured) on his description of an incident as 'anti-Semitic' and not 'anti-Israel' Mr Minns replied: 'Yes, I would.' When questioned over Mr Taylor's line of questioning, the ABC said he 'referred to anti-Semitism twice' when first covering the story earlier that morning. 'There's been another suspected anti-Semitic attack in the Eastern Suburbs just a few hours ago,' Mr Taylor told listeners. 'We'll keep an eye on this story across the morning, and see if we can get some comment on what continues to be a rather ugly trend, in this apparent rise in anti-Semitism behaviour.' But Former Victorian Liberal Party president Michael Kroger claimed the national broadcaster had a 'shocking and disgraceful ... anti-Israel bias'. Mr Minns was quick to describe it as 'anti-Semetic' after police found graffiti reading 'kill Israiel (sic)' beside a burning car in Woollahra, in Sydney's East, on Wednesday morning Mr Kroger said opposing Israel and not the Jewish community is a 'three-card trick the extreme left use to hide their anti-Semitism'. 'People shouldn't be fooled by their protestations that they're not criticising Jews,' he told Sky News Australia . Police have launched an investigation into the incident and urged anyone with information to come forward They believed the perpetrators are two people of slim build, aged between 15 and 20 years, wearing face coverings and dark clothing.

American and European stock markets mostly rose on Wednesday after inflation data cemented expectations that the US Federal Reserve will trim interest rates next month. While the Dow fell slightly, the other two major US indices advanced, led by the tech-rich Nasdaq, which piled on almost two percent to close above 20,000 points for the first time. The consumer price index (CPI) rose to 2.7 percent last month from a year ago, up slightly from 2.6 percent in October. "With the CPI numbers broadly in line, it is likely that the Fed will not be derailed and will cut rates again next week," Jochen Stanzl, chief market analyst at CMC Markets. "The data is not a showstopper for the current bull run on Wall Street," he added. Ahead of the data, investors priced in an 86 percent chance the Fed will cut interest rates next week by a quarter percentage point. That rose to more than 98 percent after the CPI data was published. Stocks in Paris and Frankfurt rose ahead of the European Central Bank's own interest rate announcement on Thursday, with analysts expecting another cut as it seeks to boost eurozone growth. Investors are also eyeing political developments in France, where officials said President Emmanuel Macron aims to name a new prime minister "within 48 hours" as he seeks to end political deadlock following the ouster of Michel Barnier. In company news, shares in German retail giant Zalando shed more than four percent on Frankfurt's DAX index, after it acquired domestic rival About You in a deal worth around 1.1 billion euros ($1.2 billion). Shares in Zara owner Inditex slid more than six percent after a record quarterly profit for the group fell short of market estimates. Among US companies, Google parent Alphabet earned 5.5 percent as it announced the launch of Gemini 2.0, its most advanced artificial intelligence model to date. That added to gains after Google also announced Tuesday details of a breakthrough quantum chip. Shares in Shanghai rose but Hong Kong gave up an early rally to end in the red. Traders were keeping tabs on China to see if it will announce further measures to support its struggling economy as leaders were to gather Wednesday for a conference to hammer out next year's agenda. President Xi Jinping and other top leaders on Monday announced their first major shift in policy for more than a decade, saying they would "implement a more active fiscal policy and an appropriately relaxed" strategy. Those remarks sparked hopes for more interest rate cuts and the freeing up of more cash for lending.

After Trump claimed on social media that Canadians could pay 60 per cent less in taxes by joining the U.S., O’Leary told Fox Business on Thursday that he wants to pitch the U.S. president-elect on a more limited integration of the two nations. “There’s 41 million Canadians — basically the population of California, sitting on the world’s largest amounts of all resources — including the most important, energy and water. Canadians, over the holidays the last two days, have been talking about this. They want to hear more,” said the Montreal-born entrepreneur and reality television personality , who is a vocal Trump supporter. “There’s obviously a lot of issues and more details, but what this could be is the beginning of an economic union. Think about the power of combining the two economies, erasing the border between Canada and the United States and putting all that resource up to the northern borders where China and Russia are knocking on the door.” There's 41 million Canadians sitting on the world's largest amounts of all resources, including the most important, energy and water.

Think... pic.twitter.com/yp5PuLgxZJ O’Leary already lives in the U.S. The Shark Tank investor currently resides in Florida but lived for decades in Boston, Mass. He recently said he left the state due to high taxes. The idea of deeper integration between Canada and the U.S., and sometimes Mexico, has been a source of discussion for decades, often compared to a North American equivalent to the European Union, with a shared currency and identification papers. O’Leary pitched similar ideas for an “economic union” during his Fox Business appearance. “Give a common currency, figure out taxes across the board, get everything trading both ways, create a new, almost EU-like passport. I like this idea, and at least half of Canadians are interested. The problem is the government’s collapsing in Canada right now,” O’Leary noted, referring to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s embattled government, his cabinet reshuffle and a potential federal election. “Nobody wants Trudeau to negotiate this deal — I don’t want him doing it for me — so I’m going to go to Mar-a-Lago. I’ll start the narrative. The 41 million Canadians, I think most of them would trust me on this deal.” Such negotiations have historically stalled because of the initiative’s complexity, according to a report from the nonpartisan research group the Peterson Institute for International Economics. “The sad truth of North America is that very few leaders of Canada, Mexico and the United States have ever entertained serious discussion of North American goals or plans,” the report says. “The three governments are not organized to approach North American issues, and officials in each government prefer to deal with problems by themselves or bilaterally.... An even more important reason why these ideas have not been discussed is the complex set of fears and prejudices that lurk deep in the souls of the three countries.” O’Leary’s comments come on the heels of repeated statements from Trump encouraging Canada to become “our 51st state” and belittling Trudeau as “the Governor of Canada.” He first floated the idea during a dinner at Mar-a-Lago with Trudeau and members of his cabinet. Trump has threatened to impose a 25 per cent tariff against Canada upon taking office in January and on Nov. 29, he joked to Trudeau that if Canada wants to avoid tariffs, it could always become the 51st state. Oh Canada! Donald Trump Truth Social 04:32 PM EST 12/02/24 @realDonaldTrump pic.twitter.com/XyIx7eCVmE A month later, Trump’s still repeating the same joke. Canada’s “taxes would be cut by more than 60%, their businesses would immediately double in size, and they would be militarily protected like no other Country anywhere in the World,” Trump wrote in a Christmas Day post on Truth Social, a media platform founded by the president-elect. Trudeau appeared to break his silence on Trump’s trolling for the first time on Thursday in a terse message on X. “Some information about Canada for Americans,” Trudeau wrote above a video narrated by Tom Brokaw about the broad brushstrokes of Canadian politics, landscapes and history which aired ahead of the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver.
