Original Note:
The attacker has been named and is Joel Cauchi. There is no Islamist connection and stabbings are not an “Islamist style” crime. There is no correlation of knife crimes to religion or ethnicity, although they are more common than gun crimes in countries with strict gun laws. https://apnews.com/article/sydney-shopping-center-stabbing-shot-bondi-22068107d1569dbc374f709a74539c30
