BREAKING NEWS: CHAOS ERUPTS AT BONDI BEACH MEMORIAL — Josh Frydenberg exploded in fury at Anthony Albanese, pointing directly at his face and shouting: “You have failed us, and your hands are covered in blood!” The former Liberal Party Treasurer unleashed his anger in front of grieving families, condemning the Prime Minister for deliberately ignoring terrorism warnings and allowing an antisemitic massacre to kill 15 innocent people under his disastrous leadership.
Australia was left in shock as the solemn memorial turned into a brutal political confrontation, with mourners in tears witnessing Frydenberg savagely berate a trembling, pale-faced Albanese.
Furious Australians have erupted in praise for Frydenberg’s courage as calls for resignation intensify — could this be the final, devastating public humiliation that breaks the Labor Party’s grip on power? The heartbreaking confrontation, broadcast live, is igniting nationwide outrage and urgent calls for justice IMMEDIATELY!
Former treasurer Josh Frydenberg has launched a blistering attack on the Albanese Government, accusing the Prime Minister of failing to confront rising antisemitism and demanding urgent action after the Bondi Beach terrorist attack.
Speaking at a vigil at Bondi Pavilion, where he laid flowers for the victims, Frydenberg said Anthony Albanese must take ‘personal responsibility’ for what he described as a preventable tragedy.
Sajid Akram, 50, and his son Naveed Akram, 24, allegedly opened fire from a footbridge at the Sydney beach on Sunday night, killing 15 people who were among those attending a Hanukkah celebration.
Frydenberg slammed Albanese for inaction since the October 7 Hamas attacks, accusing him of failing to crack down on hate preachers and extremist rhetoric, particularly comments made in Lakemba by Islamic leaders celebrating the violence.
‘It’s time for him to accept personal responsibility for the death of 15 innocent people including a 10-year-old child,’ Frydenberg said.
‘It’s time our Prime Minister accepted accountability for what has happened here and it’s time our leaders stood up and led at last and finally. This is a time for accountability and action.’
Calling the Bondi massacre ‘the greatest stain on this nation’, Frydenberg warned: ‘Unless our governments, federal and state, take urgent, unprecedented and strong action, as night follows day we will be back grieving the loss of innocent life in another terrorist attack. This was all too predictable.’
At a rally on October 8, just a day after the attack, Sheikh Ibrahim Dadoun told the crowd the attacks on were an act of resistance.
‘I’m smiling and I’m happy,’ he said.
‘I’m elated, it’s a day of courage, it’s a day of pride, it’s a day of victory. This is the day we’ve been waiting for.’
Frydenberg said such rhetoric, which he says was allowed to go unchecked, has fuelled radicalisation across Australia.
‘Australia has been radicalised in an unprecedented way in the last two-and-a-half years under your watch,’ he declared.
‘For two and a half years, what has the Muslim community been hearing? Is anyone surprised by what happened?’
He linked the attackers to extremist networks.
Frydenberg referred to Naveed Akram’s volunteering with a street-preaching group in Sydney’s west that has reported ties to multiple Islamic State supporters, including self-proclaimed martyrs and aspiring fighters.
‘The shooter was connected to a factory of hate in Bankstown. How can that place be allowed to operate for even one more day? I say no more. Enough is enough,’ Frydenburg declared.
Authorities are now investigating why, in November, Akram and his father travelled to the Philippines, one of the few countries where Islamic State maintains an active presence.
Frydenberg also accused Albanese of offering excuses, not solutions.
‘The Prime Minister can’t tell us how hard this is anymore, because no one believes him. We need action, not excuses. He must deliver change. He must deliver security. He must make Australia safer.’
He urged Albanese to take a moral stand.
‘This is not complicated, Prime Minister. There is a clear line between good and evil. It’s time for you to stand firmly on the side of good.’
Frydenberg blasted media commentary downplaying religion’s involvement in the attack.
‘I heard an ABC journalist claim this attack had nothing to do with religion. That is propaganda, plain and simple. The people that say this has nothing to do with Islam… a security failure… or the government… they are propagandists.’
He demanded sweeping reforms: ‘Call a royal commission, ban the preachers, ban the protests. Invest in education, enforce rigorous immigration checks, including for those already here, and deport those breaching our laws.’
Frydenberg also urged Albanese to act on Jillian Segal’s antisemitism report.
‘No ifs, no buts. You must act now.’
It is understood that Frydenberg is considering a political comeback in the wake of the attacks, and may stand as a candidate in his former Melbourne seat of Kooyong at the 2028 Federal election.
