Kanye West is 'done with anti-Semitism'
Kanye West has declared he is "done with anti-Semitism".
The 'Stronger' rapper has been under fire in recent months over his controversial behaviour, including praising Adolf Hitler and selling t-shirts emblazoned with a Swastika, a notorious Nazi hate symbol, but he's now asked for forgiveness and called for peace.
He wrote in a series of posts on X: "I am done with antisemitism.
I love all people.
"God forgive me for the pain I've caused.
"I forgive those who have caused me pain. Thank you God.
"The earth itself is in Gods Kingdom.
"GOD CALLS FOR PEACE.
"Share peace.
"Share love."
Kanye claimed his outlook changed after he enjoyed a video call with his and ex-wife Kim Kardashian's four children, North, 11, Saint, nine, Chicago, seven, and six-year-old Psalm.
He wrote: "I simply got a FaceTime from my kids and I wanna save the world again."
This isn't the first time Kanye has seemingly had a change of heart as in February, he declared he was "not a Nazi" following "further reflection.
Taking to X, he wrote: "After further reflection I've come to the realization that I'm not a Nazi."
Hours earlier, he appeared to respond to Adam Sandler's 'Saturday Night Live' performance from the show's 50th anniversary special.
In a tribute song written for the occasion, the comedian - whose family are Jewish - made an apparent reference to Ye as he quipped: "50 years of finding out your favorite musician's antisemitic."
Kanye tweeted: "Adam Sandler thank you for the love."
But earlier this month, he released a song called 'Heil Hitler'.
In the song, he blamed Kim for him having "turned into a Nazi" because she allegedly wouldn't let him see their children.
The lyrics included the lines: "With all of my money and fame, I still can't get my kids back/ With all of my money and fame, I still don't get to see my children.
"N***** see my Twitter but they don't see how I be feeling / So I became a Nazi, yeah b****. I'm the villain."
Earlier this year, Kanye had declared previous anti-Semitic comments to be "90 percent Jew proof" and he went on to explain he meant no one had been able to "stop" him.
He wrote: "I will write this more poetically in a bit cause right now I'm finishing my verse for Game's album.
"The idea of being Jew proof is
"I said all these politically incorrect things and nobody was able to stop me extort me threaten me to change anything
"And I made 40 million the next day between my different business
"There's a lot of Jewish people I know and love and still work with
"The point I made and showed is that I am not under Jewish control anymore (sic)"

‘That's so scary': Customer left shocked over AI drive thru
A shocked Aussie was left dumbfounded after going through a Hungry Jack's drive thru, only to be given an unexpected greeting. The popular food chain recently introduced a trial of Artificial Intelligence voice assistants to take people's orders at the drive thru. The fast food customer took to Tiktok, posting to his popular account pnuks, documenting his unexpected interaction while attempting to order a meal - with the video accumulating more than 750,000 views since yesterday. As he is ready to place an order, a screen with a female voice asks the driver 'what can I get you?' The clearly taken aback customer asks 'Are you AI?' and is responded to with 'I'm Hungry Jacks virtual helper, how can I help you.' 'That's so cooked,' the shocked Aussie said under his breath before placing his order. 'Can I get a large ultimate double whopper meal,' he said. If you'd like to view this content, please adjust your . To find out more about how we use cookies, please see our Cookie Guide. 'Did you want double whopper,' the virtual assistant responded. 'Yes a large ultimate double whopper,' the customer clarified. The exchange carried on normally as the he ordered the meal and was told to drive through - prompting the Tiktoker to say 'God that's so scary.' He posted the video with the caption '(Rest in peace) teenagers wanting a job at Hungry Jacks', voicing concern for job safety as the pending fear of AI replacing workers continues to grow. It was a sentiment shared by the 1000+ comments on the video, with little showing support for the virtual helper. 'Goodbye to teenagers who need casual jobs,' one comment said. 'How will kids get job experience with these jobs being replaced?,' another concerned viewer wrote. 'People with accents we are going to have a hard time with this! Even my Siri struggles to understand me!,' someone else noted. 'Why is it so rude, the fact that teenagers are friendlier than an AI is insane,' another wrote. The customer was left shocked after this new feature. Credit: pnuks / Tiktok 'In a cost of living crisis house prices through the roof and now we fighting against AI technology in which thousands of jobs will be lost,' a viewer pointed out. While initially served by AI, customers can request to speak to an employee instead. KFC trailed a similar system 'voice ordering technology' at five of their restaurants in Sydney which was set to be a trial period as well but is still currently in use. The use of AI at fast food restaurants may be relatively new to Australia, but something that the States have been incorporating for a while now, and people have taken advantage of its short comings. The trend saw customers place ridiculous orders to try and beat the technology, with employees often having to overrule the orders.

Andrew Miller: Classic car chases educate a child's mind in ways the classroom just can't
This column, in fine dad tradition, pretends to contain lessons — but not 'learnings' a word which should be banned except from the hellscape of LinkedIn where it is a reliable indicator of content you can skip. I was supposed to be helping the six-year-old with reading practice, but we got distracted and ended up watching classic car chases on YouTube. Specifically, comparing and contrasting wanton automotive carnage in the movies The Italian Job and The Blues Brothers. This naturally led to explaining the historical relevance of the Illinois Nazis — who met their demise by driving off an incomplete flyover while pursuing Jake and Elwood Blues — and why popular culture so often circles back to the dark risks of fascism. Nazis famously lost the war through over-reach but, as with measles and polio, modern versions persist, and we remain vigilant. Many problems endure — right-wing extremism; infectious diseases; hospital over-crowding, and politicians dumb or artful enough to argue that legalising bare-knuckle fighting might somehow be wise. We then discussed the actor Henry Gibson, who played the Illinois Nazi leader — beloved for his quirky, subversive flower poetry on Laugh-In and for voicing Wilbur in the wonderful 1973 movie Charlotte's Web. If this sort of education is not what fathers are good for, then I give up. She liked the Mini Coopers in the Italian Job, so we pulled up the online car ads. After our recent epic road trip from Perth to Broome, we visited Carol and Dave Berger's place then flew home. They have recently completed higher studies at the School of Tropical Medicine and Global Health in Nagasaki, Japan. Never ones to shy away from an intriguing intellectual or geographic diversion, they are the sort of positively inquisitive doctors you want puzzling over your hospital bed — setting ever higher standards for themselves and taking your diagnosis and recovery personally. Berger has been sending me new insights on many infectious diseases that we have been battling since antiquity. Diseases whose prevention we must continually take seriously, or they will creep back into our lives — as measles is doing in the besieged USA. Meanwhile, their anything-but-serious Health Secretary's department apparently used AI to author his flagship Make America Healthy Again report, complete with multiple fake references. Any decent university would expel lowly students for trying that nonsense. My reliably logical wife pointed out that the grand Broome adventure has put an impractical distance between me and my only car. She also accurately illustrated, with the weather radar, that it is not an ideal season to be bike and scooter dependent. Serious precipitation is no issue at all in plastic pants and jacket, but raging storm fronts are not ideal conditions for two wheels at the school pickup. Luckily, I still subscribe to an old-fashioned paper magazine about automobiles, as part of my failing digital detox. Reading about how the resistance to electric vehicles has fallen is fascinating. They could range much further if simply made less powerful, but yet another perennial problem the human race revisits is that the adoption of positive developments can easily be sabotaged by the male ego. Ergo, electric cars must accelerate faster — much faster — than petrol ones, or no fluffy dice. We found an ad for a 1978 Leyland Mini coupe — 'Needs work. No tyre kickers.' It will go for around $3,000, which is simply a deposit on future repairs, but it oozes Michael Caine character: 'You were only supposed to blow the bloody doors off!' I explained to her that scenes with Minis racing through running water are misleading, because of the anterior placement of Leyland distributors. Even light showers would more often result in roadside spraying of WD-40 on the sodden electrics, than thrilling escapes from the Carabinieri en route to school. 'Are there really Illinois Nazis?' she asked. 'Yeah, I think so' I replied, 'but we've beaten them before, and we can do it again.'

‘Pogrom at the Opera': Rowan Dean on Jewish hatred following October 7 attacks
Sky News host Rowan Dean reminisces on the hateful crowd chanting occurring on the steps of the Sydney Opera House just days after Hamas' terror attack on October 7, 2023. 'Australia's greatest night of shame – the vile Jew hatred on October 9, 2023,' Mr Dean said. 'The same spot that saw the most grotesque scenes, including crowds chanting obscenities toward Australian Jews, waving flags and placards, and calling out all sorts of religious chants. 'The Jew hatred on display on October 9, 2023, long before Israel had gone anywhere near Gaza, was described by The Spectator Australia as a 'pogrom at the Opera'.'
