The discovery of a caravan on the outskirts of Sydney that allegedly contained explosives and antisemitic materials has been classified as an act of terrorism by Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and New South Wales Premier Chris Minns. While NSW police have not officially labeled it as terrorism, both leaders highlighted the intent to create fear and harm within the community. The caravan owner is in custody on unrelated charges. This incident arises amid a rise in antisemitic graffiti in Sydney, signaling an alarming increase in hate against Jewish communities.
The incident is clearly designed to harm people but it's also intended to create fear in the community, which aligns with the definition of terrorism.
We must be vigilant as antisemitic graffiti incidents have increased, indicating a troubling rise in hate and violence targeting Jewish communities in Sydney.
