The Australian Prime Minister denies a double standard after alleged attacks on Muslim women | News of Islamophobia
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese says that every attack on a person based on their faith is “humiliating”.
Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese rejected the proposals that his government was too slow to deny Islamophobia after the alleged attack of two Muslim women at the Melbourne Shopping Center.
In an interview with journalists on Wednesday, Albanese said that any attack on a person based on their religion was “reproach”.
“I seriously take all the attacks on people based on their faith and everyone should face the full power of the law,” he said.
“We named Islamophobia a special envoy. This is an important step forward. And I am someone who celebrates our diversity and who respects people, regardless of their faith. “
Albanese gave the comments after some Muslim Australians, including international Khawa Khawa’s crisis, accused the government of not doing enough of combating Islamophobia.
On Tuesday, Khawai, who was the first Muslim to play with the Australia’s test cricket, said that the alleged attacks would pass without Albano and opposition leader Peter Dutton, and will be “swallowed under a rug like all attacks on the Islamic community.”
Khawaja said on Wednesday to appreciate Albanese and Dutton, who labeled the “shame” for “speech” about attacks.
One of the alleged victims, Ealaf al-Esawie, told the local media that the attacker hit her on his face and chest before pushing her to the floor.
“I feel terrified, traumatized and I still can’t believe what happened to me,” Al-Easawi quoted the Australian news agency Associated Press.
“The scene will not get out of my head. He continues to repeat in my mind – how I was attacked.
“I am not a cottage, but since Thursday I stuck in front of four walls, and every crack I hear from the house, I am like,” Oh, God, someone is coming. “
Melbourne police said on Wednesday that they had arrested a 31-year-old woman and accused the attack of suspicious Islamophobic attacks on February 13th.
“Police will claim that the victims were targeted for wearing a head blanket,” Victoria police spokesman said in a statement.
“In our society, there is absolutely no place for discriminatory, racist behavior based on hatred and such activity will not be tolerated,” the statement said.
The advocacy groups reported on the sudden increase in Islamophobic and anti -Semitic incidents in Australia on October 7, 2023, when Hamas launched a multiple attack on Israel, then led to his war in Gaza.
