Police are investigating Australian children’s author Matt Chun’s online content after he denied the existence of anti-Semitism and condemned any expression of grief for the 15 people killed in the Bondi terrorist attack.

In a Substack article titled “We Don’t Mourn Fascists,” Chun criticised both the political left and right for expressing sadness over the event, accusing them of falling for what he described as a Zionist anti-Semitic narrative.
