Australia’s Jewish community is bracing itself for a horrifying escalation by the “Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions” movement notionally against Israel but increasingly seen as thinly-disguised anti-Semitism.
A report by VEXNEWS reveals that a group led by former Melbourne University student union official Vashti Kenway has instructed its troops to take their Israel-hating protests to a synagogue during the time it would have Jewish religious services, on Saturday February 25th. The protest is aimed at Rabbi Joseph Gutnick, a strong supporter of Israel, in whose honour the centre accommodating the synagogue is named.
Increasingly, Kenway and her band of protesters are blurring the lines between hating Israel and engaging in blatantly anti-Semitic protests. The move to attack a synagogue during religious services is the most blatant act in that direction we’ve seen across Australia.
Kenway’s protests have previously targeted Israeli-owned chocolate shops on the basis that some of their chocolate had been sent to the young men and women who protect Israel from those sworn to its destruction. Her behaviour was such that she and a group of comrades have been arrested and prosecuted for their riotous behaviour.
Sources familiar with the matter told VEXNEWS they feared the deep offence and confrontational environment created by Vashti Kenway and her noisy band of ultra-leftists (and apparently a sprinkling of the lunar right) could prompt violence between the congregation at the synagogue and Kenway’s people.
hilarious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
get those greggers ready folks
this will not work at all. First of all her name is Vashti…

There are no neturei Karta in Adass.
Most members are children of & survivors of the Holocaust.
Your comment wasn’t funny & your lack of ahavas Yisroel astonishing. Never mind the insensitivity.
The Beis Hamikdash was destroyed because of people like you.
Neturei Karta is a branch off of satmar which is the Shita of Reb Yoel the Admor of Satmar zy”a however NK is the more extreme of satmar as satmar doesn’t join in with the arabs they r just against the state of israel & its existence they don’t join with the arabs on the other hand NK joins with the arabs & becomes friends with them, there is no source 4 this in the Sefer VYoel Moshe (sefer written by Satmar Ruv) so in truth the only svara 4 nk is is the fact is that they think they… Read more »
very good point !! that is correct the protest is on Shabbos Mevarchim Adar the whole inyan of purim wow. they don’t even realize it i mean the ppl planning the protest !! Hashem works in interesting ways !!!
Chabad needs to distance themselves from Tzionus decisively now. You see how this failure to uphold Torah by pandering to the false notion of a “Jewish” state has brought klallos r”l on Klal Yisroel.
Number five 😉
THATS MY SHUL
At this point in time, when enemies are looking @ us with hate, is a time to stick together. where there is no ahavas yisrael, we will be defeated….satmar, chabad and all jews,,,lets try to be united and stand strong against anti semitism. it doesnt matter who and what you are, you are a jew to them….so forget the dress and customs…stand up against amalek!
I dont get the connection between Satmar and Neturei Karta.
Would that be like Chabad and Shmuel Boteach.
Nah, Satmar doesnt condone Neturei Karta.
From the way you try to disparage Satmar, perhaps you
would feel comfortable standing with the anti-semites
vashti will go down and (sholom) mordchai will go up!!!!
Vashti will simply sprout pimples and a tail…
NO WORRIES 🙂
The protest is not planned to take place at the shul where Rabbi Gutnick davens. It is going to take place outside the Adass Gutnick Hall which is part of the Adass Shul. Adass is made up of Hungarian immigrants and their descendants, many of whom are Satmar. In fact, if there are any Netuei Kartaniks present, the protest will turn into congregant against congregant! All kidding aside, may the sonei yisroel have the same end as the original Vashti.
With a name like Vashti we have nothing to worry about.
She will get what she deserves in the end.
Her name is vashti and the protest is happening in shabbos mevarchim adar…
