Mayor Mannoun condemns Mosque threat
4 March 2025
(See translation in Arabic section)
Sydney-Middle East Times Int'l: Only a few days ago our local community gathered to celebrate in joy the opening of the Australian Islamic House, a mosque building project 25 years in the making.
Today, that joy has been replaced by fear with the threat of a mass murder attack copying the chilling events of Christchurch in 2019 when over 50 innocent worshippers were murdered whilst praying.
An attack on one Faith is an attack on all Faiths.
Council is in contact with the government, police, and the mosque and is ready and willing to assist in any way possible.
I ask everyone to please be calm and vigilant.
If you see any suspicious behaviour, please report it immediately to Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000
It’s important that we all stand together and not allow hate to grow.
Whether it be online comments or the violent attacks we have seen happen on Australian Muslims recently, we all have a responsibility to call these actions out. |
