I think social media is blowing this out of proportion and making it sound bigger than it is.
I work in northern Melbourne which has a huge middle eastern community (and big emphasis on community), that for the most part just lives their lives without bringing middle eastern trouble here.
The pro gaza protests last year on occasion saw people go a bit far but no different to union rallies. I think people are nastier at costco or boxing day sales.
I've never heard anyone yell "Kill Them" at costco sales in reference to Jews.
I've heard people at costco call other people Jews, Nazis, cunts, tightasses, assholes, pricks. I feel there should be more security in that place.
