I take the 15 victims at Bondi Beach and divide them by the 71,000 deaths in Gaza as of this writing. I get a fraction of 0.0002143.
I read in a BBC report that the victims of the Dec. 14 shooting at Bondi Beach, along the coast a few miles from central Sydney, were "generous, joyful and talented."
These were Jews who had gathered, a sizable group, to celebrate Hanukkah under Australia's summer sun.
