Nomad owner’s horrifying anti-Semitic slur revealed
High-profile restaurateur Al Yazbek called his Jewish landlords “Shylock & Shylock” during a dispute over the premises of his Nomad restaurant, an age-old anti-Semitic slur that flies in the face of his claims to simply be protesting Israel’s actions in Gaza.
Mr Yazbek, who last week pleaded guilty to charges of knowingly displaying a Nazi symbol during a pro-Palestine rally, also demeaningly referred to one of the landlord’s employees as “the little bald Jewish guy who works for you”.
The comments were made in emails to prominent Sydney real estate investors Robert and Geula Burke, who own the five-storey Surry Hills building housing Mr Yazbek’s swanky ground floor Nomad restaurant.
Highly regarded members of Sydney’s Jewish community, Mr Burke, 75, and Israeli-born Ms Burke, 73, are understood to have been appalled by the emails but not surprised when Mr Yazbek was revealed to have brandished a sign bearing a swastika superimposed on an Israeli flag.
Mr Yazbek’s long-term lease on Nomad’s Foster St site has at least two years left to run, but mass cancellations have emptied the restaurant and his two Victorian eateries, Nomad Melbourne and Reine & La Rue in the wake of the charges.
Mr Yazbek’s wife Rebecca last week sent an email to the restaurant group’s patrons saying she was “furious with his actions and heartbroken by the harm they caused”.
Ms Yazbek claimed her husband was no longer involved in the management of the business and on Friday announced a restructure of the company, to be renamed Edition Hospitality, in which she would become the sole director.
Celebrity accountant Anthony Bell, founder & CEO of Bell Partners has been appointed as business advisor to the group.
Ms Yazbek said her husband was booked to depart for an Ashram in India and would return for his sentencing on the Nazi flag protest charges on 10 December.
In a separate statement to The Australian over his use of the slur ‘Shylock & Shylock’, Mr Yazbek said: “This is a massive overreaction. People call me names in jest or frustration, and I don’t take offence to terms like ‘mad wog’ or ‘crazy Leb’. It’s Aussie vernacular.
“The term was used after what I felt were multiple unsuccessful interactions with Mr Burke. It was wrong to use the phrase. I have always attempted to stay on good terms with Mr Burke, inviting him into the restaurant to dine, for example.”
Mr Yazbek has explicitly denied being anti-Semitic and has apologised “unequivocally” for his flag protest, but that apology was undermined when The Australian revealed he was once questioned by police after caught acting suspiciously outside a Bondi synagogue in Sydney’s east in 2024, when his car was found loaded with water bomb ballons.
The next day, Mr Yazbek made his way into a rally for Israel in nearby Dover Heights where more than 10,000 members of Sydney’s Jewish community had gathered, before the restaurateur was spotted by security and removed by police.
The “Shylock & Shylock” gibe occurred in the midst of a bitter legal dispute between the Burkes and the Yazbeks, stemming from a fire that started in Nomad’s wood fire oven in September 2019.
The Yazbeks began repairs after the fire but refused to allow the Burkes access to the property. The Burkes then sued Nomad in the NSW Supreme Court, seeking an injunction to allow them to carry out work to comply with a council fire safety order.
Mr Burke, who is also a lawyer, used his own law firm Gilbert Mane, to bring the action against Nomad.
In a 1 June 2021 email Mr Yazbek described correspondence from Gilbert Mane as “more rubbish from the firm of Shylock and Shylock”.
Shylock was a stereotyped greedy Jewish money lender in Shakespeare’s play The Merchant of Venice who demands “a pound of flesh” from his Christian rival.
Anti-Semites have used the Shylock trope to support persecution of Jews for more than 400 years, playing off the ‘blood libel’ – the ancient false allegation that Jews coveted the blood of gentiles for sinister purposes.
Mr Burke’s son, Edan, who is employed as Hanave’s property manager, said in an affidavit to the court that the email contained “anti-Semitic undertones”.
Mr Yazbek made other offensive comments about Edan Burke in the email, describing him as “your idiot son” and “a liar”.
The following day, Mr Yazbek sent an email saying he “would be happy to show through the little bald Jewish guy who works for you by way of an update.”
Edan Burke stated in his affidavit that Mr Yazbek had acted aggressively towards him, yelling at Hanave’s fire experts to “get out” and obstructing attempts to comply with the fire order.
In another affidavit, dated 3 August 2023, Edan Burke alleged that Nomad’s solicitors notified them on the eve of Yom Kippur that a fire safety shutdown of the building was to take place the following day, “being less than 24 hours prior notice in circumstances where the holiest day of the Jewish calendar began at sundown on the same day”.
That meant the company didn’t have time to inform other tenants of the building about the impending shutdown, Mr Burke said.
Executive Council of Australian Jewry co-chief executive Alex Ryvchin said the revelations aboy Mr Yazbek were “entirely in keeping with the conduct of a person who taunts Jewish Australians with swastikas and was questioned by police for acting suspiciously around a synagogue.”
“His gratuitous references to the Jewishness of someone involved in a property dispute and the reference to the moneylender Shylock, shows a fixation with Jews and that his offer of an ‘olive branch of peace and love to the Jewish community’ was purely self-serving and cynical. He can take his olive branch and plant it.”
Don’t anyone tell me Mrs Yazbek doesn’t share her husband’s dislike of Jews.
And when around 10 000 votes can win you the Electoral College votes for a swing state the temptation is high.

I was reading about Rachael Reeves- the same old bullshit ‘degrees’ from the LSE. Reeves and her Marxist mates have nothing to offer but misery (not for them of course).
———————————————-
Rachel Reeves is the equivalent of our Treasurer in the UK.
She just dropped a Budget which whacked taxpayers with another 40 billion quid while simultaneously increasing the national debt.
UK citizens – Poor Fellow My Country.
Mind you, since only a third of them got out of bed to vote ….
For some reason, the sense of nationhood has gone,
Rachel Reeves has already given up on growth – spiked
The sneer reminds me of that vile man hater Harriet Harman.
With more to come, plus cuts to services, leading to more social unrest & division. And a none too thinly veiled attack on the private sector with a transfer of private wealth to government coffers. No Thatcher on the horizon this time.
For some reason, the sense of nationhood has gone,
Yes. And those who do speak up for ‘nationhood’ are smeared, derided and ridiculed as ‘far-right’.
The always excellent David Starkey argues that it was the Blair/Brown ‘reforms’ that destroyed the UK as a nation, made worse by the fact that successive Tory government under Cameron, May, Johnson and Sunak did nothing to repeal those reforms. There was one one person who did try and make some changes, and her name was Liz Truss, Prime Minister for how long? About six weeks? She was the victim of an establishment coup d’etat.
Well, it’s just a “perpetual irritant” innit?
A very left leaning (or former?) Canadian colleague of mine called me into a room this AM as she wanted to run something past me, I thought was work related. She said “I can’t say this publicly, but can you believe they’re bringing all of these Muslims into the country?”
I’m not sure why she told me and nobody else!!! We had a long chat, about her recent time back home and how Canada has is no longer recognisable, and she signed off with “Trump needs to win.”
I’m gobsmacked. This same sheila used to trumpet how great Obama was and Jen Psaki etc… (which you are allowed to do publicly)…
So, which Cat is going to run the bets on POTUS electoral votes?
(as a side issue, it’d be a shitstorm if they both get 269 as the HoR would need to choose the POTUS and the Senate would need to choose the VPOTUS)…
No, not in the least – and that’s with a horizon stretched out over 9+ years of hard Labour.
No kidding, the American left needs to be placed in a mental asylum en masse.
Just get a load of this massive bout of TDS. I’ve never seen anything like it before.
She finds out her dad is voting Trumpster. At a glance, she appears to be a sweet gal who’s totally brainwashed by the MSM.
There are literally millions of people in this state.
If Musk is the real deal, and he is, he’s talking about cutting US$ 2 trillion from an annual budget of approx US$6.5 trillion. Musk could actually achieve this.
If Trump manages to cut through the cheat margin, it will be an historic presidency. Hedge fund manager Ron Paulson is touted as the potential treasury secretary and Musk as the budge tsar.
I hope Vivek goes to DHS.

Opinion polls have Harris and Trump locked in a tight race. ‘Gambling polls’ say otherwise | Business | The Guardian
They say Trump underpolls by about 3% so perhaps Harris is in trouble? (Notwithstanding the shenanigans)

I have done up a 45 minute talk on the flooding of the Mediterranean; the Black Sea, the Flood stories and the Ark, which I present on Med cruises.
Was interesting research. Basically shows that the flooding of the Med was too far back – about six million years ago – to be the basis for human Flood stories. Modern man is thought to be about 315,000 years old.
But the Black Sea flooding up through the Dardanelles happened only about 7,000 years ago according to recent explorations. And that coincides with a lot of Flood stories from civilisations around there.
The Mt Aarat expeditions – and there have been quite a few – have not come up with anything apart from some geological formations, and some stone boat anchors.
Fascinating stuff.
Hezbollah reportedly agrees to withdraw beyond Litani River, Lebanese reports claim (31 Oct)
Yeah, sure. They agreed to that after the hostilities of 2006. Since then, possibly with the acquiescence of the UNIL detachments designed to enforce the neutral zone, they constructed munitions facilities in that supposedly neutral zone.
I doubt if Israel will agree to the failed policy, unless composite forces of neutral Arab states (eg the Emirati, Saudis, & maybe Jordanians) patrol the zone.

Re: Hanson/fatkunt judgment by judge angus stewart, illustrated:
80.pdf
I listened to his reading. The guy is an insufferable leftie. He sees the fatkunt as a victim, uses undefined, grotesque terms like islamophobia and inapplicable terms like racism. Islamophobia is meaningless because it ignores the issue of what is a reasonable level of criticism of islam. Racism is inapplicable because islam is not a fuking race.
Angie described Hanson’s tweet as an angry personal attack thus showing it was not what she said but how she said it. Perhaps if Hanson did not speak ocker English but bespoke in the rarified, supercilious way this prick spoke she would have been ok.
Angie also said this:
Senator Hanson has a tendency to make negative, derogatory, discriminating or hateful statements in relation to about or against groups of people relevantly identified as persons of colour, migrants to Australia and Muslims, and to do so because of those characteristics
Even if this were true it is not relevant. Hanson’s tweet suggesting the fatkunt fuk off back to the muzzie shithole she oozed from and where she would be in an XXX size burqa with her lips stitched together, was directed only to the fatkunt and not the myriad of groups, according to angie, Hanson has victimised over the years. This is deductive reasoning where the particular is validated from the general being correct. You can’t do this judicially: that is, even assuming what angie said Hanson generally does is correct, which is not true, it does not make an unrelated particular statement to a particular person illegal.
Angie also ignored what fatkunt said about the Queen and utterly disgraceful comments she made about Australia. Clearly there was provocation and under the law one cannot be offended if one gets a response to provocative statements one makes. One cannot seek equity if one has not done equity and fatkunt did make speak equitably about Australia and our deceased and venerable Queen.
Finally political speech is protected under the law. Was Hanson speaking politically? Of course she was. She has made it plain that the filth are her political opponents and she was reacting politically to a political pronouncement by fatkunt consistent with the political and ideological intent of the filth.
Regardless of the appeal this judge is a POS, who lives in a bubble and is a pure leftoid.

Sam Dastyari hit with ban by ATO over super fund managementDavid Ross
21 hours ago.
Updated 9 hours ago
The Australian Business Network
Former Labor senator Sam Dastyari has been banned from running a superannuation fund, after the tax office slapped the NSW powerbroker with orders on October 24.
In a notice posted by the Australian Taxation Office, Mr Dastyari was served notice he would be disqualified as trustee from one or more superannuation entities after they contravened the Superannuation Industry Act.
The ATO notice warned the funds overseen by Mr Dastyari had breached subsection 2 of the Act, which orders a trustee be banned when funds they operate are found to have breached the Act.
In a public notice ATO deputy commissioner Emma Rosenzweig told Mr Dastyari she was “satisfied that the corporate trustee of one or more superannuation entities has contravened the SISA on one or more occasions”.
Ms Rosenzweig told Mr Dastyari “at the time of the contraventions you were a responsible officer of the corporate trustee and the seriousness of the contraventions provides grounds for disqualifying you”.
The ATO warned Mr Dastyari he risked jail time if he continued to act as trustee or investment manager or custodian of a superannuation fund after his banning. If found to be running the fund or acting as a responsible officer after the ban he risks two years in jail.
However, the ATO’s notice allows Mr Dastyari 21 days to appeal, ordering he “give the reasons you think the decision is wrong”.
Corporate records show Mr Dastyari, who served as general secretary of the NSW Labor branch alongside a key role at the party’s national executive from 2010 to 2013, registered Dastyari Super in January 2021. Records show he continues to be registered as its sole director and shareholder.
ASIC records show registrations for the Dastyari Managed Super Fund, which was active from July 2023, along with a registration for the Dastyari Superannuation Fund, which was registered in January 2021.
The Iranian-born politician was a NSW Labor senator from 2016-18 but dramatically quit after his links with Chinese communist businessman Huang Xiangmo were revealed.
Former immigration minister, now Liberal leader, Peter Dutton called Mr Dastyari a “double agent”.
The move by the ATO to ban Mr Dastyari comes almost two months after accounting firm Presido Partners told ASIC it was immediately withdrawing “consent to act as the registered office” for Mr Dastyari’s superannuation fund.
Since leaving politics Mr Dastyari has appeared in the media, but he has also pursued a business career, joining the board of the National Home Doctors Service as well as stepping up as director of private financier Lending Capital Ventures.
Mr Dastyari serves as director of the lending business alongside businessman James Ravens, with $181,052 in paid up capital.
Mr Ravens, who also runs a drinks company and held a senior position on the Tasmanian Bridestowe Levendar Estate, notes on his LinkedIn profile that Lending Capital Ventures is a privately held lending company offering loans to “under-serviced categories in the financial services space”.
This included funding fertility lending provider Ovessa, which offers loans of up to 10 years to fund IVF.
Contacted by The Australian, Mr Dastyari asked “what’s up, mate?” but failed to respond when questioned on the reason for his banning.

Five out of six Collins submarines out of action in critical blow to national securityBen Packham
45 minutes ago.
Updated 3 minutes ago
Only one of the nation’s ageing Collins-class submarines is currently operational in a critical blow to national security, as corrosion problems, maintenance delays and long-running industrial action wreak havoc on the fleet’s availability.
Five of the six boats are out of action and there are now serious questions over the navy’s ability to extend the life of the fleet by a further ten years to bridge a looming capability gap before Australia’s nuclear submarine’s arrive.
The Australian can also reveal the Collins boats, which are approaching the end of their original 30-year lifespans, are now being used more lightly when they are available under a deliberate strategy to avoid unnecessary wear and tear.
One of the submarines, HMAS Sheean, has been stuck in maintenance at Adelaide’s Osborne yard for more than two years with unprecedented corrosion issues, while a second, HMAS Rankin, has been tied up at Osborne for at least five months awaiting upgrades.
Three of the boats – HMAS Farncomb and two others which The Australian is not naming for security reasons – are undergoing or about to undergo maintenance work at Perth’s Henderson precinct.
The remaining Collins boat, which The Australian is also not naming to preserve its operational security, has recently been deployed on exercises and is available for tasking.
It’s understood one of the boats at Henderson is due to exit maintenance in coming weeks, and could re-enter service soon subject to official clearances.
An industrial dispute between unions and the government’s submarine maintenance corporation ASC has exacerbated the problems, setting back work on HMAS Sheean and preventing HMAS Rankin from being lifted from the water.
The Australian Manufacturing Workers Union is leading a campaign to boost South Australian ASC workers’ pay by 18.5 per cent to match rates paid by ASC in Western Australia to keep workers from jumping to the mining sector.
The punters have been selling off Trump in the betting markets over the last 3 days. Have to wonder what news they are reacting to.
The long running industrial action problems associated with the Colander Class submarines. A problem that can be resolved by DCM, we no longer require your lack of services. Typical union action. Eff em all.
The Tuvalu Navy, as you would expect, has no submarines. Australia has one operational submarine.
Let’s see if they hold the line.
?They should. The only people who care about this will never vote LNP anyway.
😀

Not to mention that there are principles involved here that go to the heart of our polity and its ethos (e.g. citizens should not be treated differently on the basis of “race”, for starters) that one might expect the LNP to defend against the divisive attacks of the socialists.
But a mere twelve months ago Crisafulli was “me too” on Labor’s “reforms.”

Any pussers type Cats help out? I thought the Japanese submarines lacked the range and the weapons payload for Australian requirements?
I can’t quite convey my absolute fury and disgust at the federal court’s decision in favour of the sinister Jew hating Fatso Faruqi. The fact that anyone has been found guilty of racially vilifying Fatso Faruqi is laughable and shows just how far this country has fallen. You put Hanson and Faruqi in a room and the only racial vilifier IS Fatso Faruqi.
I hope Pauline appeals.
However, I’m reminded of how last year Pauline joined in the woke and sanctimonious pile on of Mark Latham for his spicy (but accurate) tweet against the creepy and sinister homosexual Alex Greenwich, Clover’s bum boy, who’s been the member for Sydney for decades.
Pauline could have stood by Latham but she did not, she could have and should have said that whilst she did not agree with Latham’s choice of words in the tweet, it’s called….free speech and she should have told the creepy homosexual Greenwich to toughen up but instead she chose to side with the sanctimonious woke against one of her own.
And of course, as we know, last month Mark Latham lost his case against the creepy and sinister homosexual.
This afternoon after work I went to visit my mother in hospital and whilst she’s frail, her mind remains sharp. We discussed Pauline and Fatso Faruqi and Mum said how amusing it is that Fatso Faruqi claims she was racially vilified by Hanson in that one tweet where Pauline tweeted ‘piss off back to where you came from‘ but as Mum reminded me, Fatso Faruqi says exactly the same thing. Faruqi’s shouts and screeches at the endless Jew hating celebrations she’s participated in, where she shouts ‘From the river to the sea Palestine will be free‘ is also racial vilification, and something worse, it’s advocating genocide of a particular rade. So, it appears Fatso Faruqi is all in for the ethnic cleansing of Jews from the country we know as Israel, she wants a Judenfrei Palestine. And as my darling Mum said to me tonight, if that’s not racial vilification then she doesn’t know what is.
I’ve decided not to use embedded responses. They get lost and waste my time.
Agree

One Nation leader Pauline Hanson will appeal a landmark Federal Court finding she racially vilified Greens senator Mehreen Faruqi when she told her to “piss off back to Pakistan” in a 2022 tweet.

JC, you haven’t kept up. Since 7th October 2023 the middle eastern Nazis have been rehabilitated by the western academic establishment while at the same time Israel and any Zionists anywhere have been demonised. It’s funny how it all turned over within 48 hours.
In the case of Ukraine, since Zelensky is a Jew Ukraine and their war is now on the outer. I blame everything on the European and American leftist degeneracy that is about to deliver the US election to the Democrats and then it’s all over. There will be no revolution, it will not end with a bang but with a whimper.
Freedom of political speech is in play here.
The constitution trumps positive law (or should) in that regard.

That could be, but markets are markets and if he was heavily favored the bids at lower levels would have stopped the slide. The point is that it’s narrowing, but lets see.
Re: mean tweets.
Firstly Faruqi had a lot of options and there is no reason she has to go back to Pakistan as though that’s the only permissible or logical outcome of holding that opinion. She could, as she appears to be, remain and agitate for change from within, for example. There’s also the question of whether the empire became less racist over time, or that it played no role in deciding immigration rules in Australia, meaning Faruqi’s residency is not self-contradictory. We’ve got a parliamentary system that is a product of our forebears deciding the monarch was not beyond criticism. So Hanson’s tweet was ridiculously OTT.
At the same time, without contradiction, there is no reason to believe the comment from Hanson was islamophobic. It is as though the judge punished Hanson for what he thinks Hanson would normally have said and not what she actually said on the occasion.
Yeah, because it didn’t. A completely OTT judgement from this judge who I hope will be found to have erred in the appeal.
I would hope that the exemptions in 18c do not require the offending statement to be absolutely true and correct; people should be able to say things that are wrong and still enjoy protection of the exemptions.

China…what is the truth? Some say it is the future, a utopian world. Some say it is the opposite, a total dystopia where the buildings crumble in your very hands and food is cooked in oil strained from the gutters.

Pauline Hanson’s Please Explain would be a perfect vehicle to run rings around both Fat Faruqi and the mug Justice.

Something that a lot of people haven’t taken into account is the amount of soldiers that have gone through infantry training, been in combat and have left the US Army over the last ten years.
Now, consider the ANG + the skilled infantry that have left the army in ten years.
It’s not as unbalanced in favour of the Feds as it looks.

WOW. AZ = RED.
The lovely old 210 has been sold to a charter outfit in northern SA.
Part of the sale contract requires us to remove the realy, realy kitch Brahman cattle artwork that my lady and I giggled over when when we purchased our retirement property IN 2000. As part of the deal we agreed to apply the purchaser’s artwork.
The workshops recommended painter and airbrusher turned up in a genuinle 80’s Sandman panelvan complete with surf artwork. Only her eyeballs were not tattoed and she had enough metal inserted to make her a target for Sim’s Metals
I panicked and was about to boot her when she popped up her clever portable paint booth and airfilter and after a cursory look at the purchaser’s design got to work.
lI have never seen airbrushing in action before. Eyewatering skill. I was mesmerised. Boot the taxpayer funded galleries. Bring in commercial artists.

Perhaps Juliar was right after all – the man is an unrepentant misogynist, especially when it comes to bashing women not of his privileged (muddle) class.
What a gutless spineless shadow of a man without a chest he was, buckling under the first damp lettuce leaf to brush against him during the audible in space squawking about the possible repeal of section 18c of the RDA – the loudest squawkings of which emanated from an unholy alliance of moozleys and “October 6” peoples of the Hebrew persuasion.
As noted at the time by another gliberal grandee, we all have the right to be big bigoty bigots.
Grate work all round, you monumental forkwits.
Then to add insult to injury, you had the gall to go and inflict Waffles Turnbuckle on us, without the inconvenience of asking us if we’d be happy with such an abomination.
FFS, I hate the gliberals with a passion. As an erstwhile commenter on this blogue noted at the time of the idiotic inglorious events described above, “I hope they all die ablaze in a gutter …”
Although we did at least get to witness the ignominious torchings of the political careers of the likes of porter, sludge and eventually, Goose Morristeen – after he and Joshi Frydchickenburger had single handedly redefined the concept of “fiscal responsibility”, while making Woine Swansteen look like Scrooge McDuck on an austerity drive.

Yep. I was thinking the same earlier.

Aside from reading Hillbilly Elegy, I haven’t read or heard a great deal about Vance, but he speaks very well and comes across as affable and comparatively down-to-earth.

I watched the whole thing. I agree that he comes over as down-to-earth. Or as I think of it, sane. Which is a pleasant change from the dems.

I remember that prick from the 90s showing up at every opportunity during the Clinton impeachment. He’s a leftwing hack.
Lol. It’s quite amusing how your speculations always veer to one side. If peer-to-peer conflict is your position, then it should apply to both sides. If the North Koreans are sending troops to gain experience, then other countries might do the same if they choose to send troops.

He should be flogged. Completely undermines the democratic process (unless he announced the change in the meantime). So sick of people trying to cruise into Government as small targets. Crisafulli was one of the worst.
