when about 20 swastika symbols were spray-painted on to a section of the mural, while another three were later located around Ebley Street in Bondi Junction.
"The swastika represents the ultimate in racial hatred. It also represents the Nazi regime which our country fought against so bravely in World War II. The residents of Bondi will join all well-meaning Australians in condemning this act of blatant anti-Semitism," he said."All forms of bigotry are unacceptable and it is essential that leaders across civil society call it out and condemn it whenever it occurs. It is not what this country is about.
