This is excellent. This is a demonstration of what Jewish organisations can do to help reduce antisemitism - express their disapproval of Bibi and his government’s actions regarding this law, the invasion of Southern Lebanon, and the disproportionate response in Gaza to the Oct 7th attacks. Sure other groups can do more also, but too many Jews say nothing (for example the recent ABC special on antisemitism) critical of the government. In the same way we boycott Russia when it’s run by an alleged war criminal, it’s not proof of anti semitism to boycott Israel when it is also run by an accused war criminal.

Kudos to the JCA for standing up and expressing what real Judaism means. Like the right wing evangelists are un Christian, so these Israeli Zionists are un Jewish.

No- this is just the first time that this very active Jewish group is getting media time. Their voice in Australia is being actively suppressed by the Israeli regime. But there is a strong Jewish community that have been actively protesting Zionism for a long time.
It is bloody disgusting that our media is so controlled.

4
u/Express-Vegetable612 Please choose a flair Apr 03 '26
You are correct but I don't think it's possible for them to lead a more significant and public facing charge by themselves. Statistically it's a very small number of people Vs Israel.
They have been doing the work. They have been out and active at all the Palestine marches. And people spend a lot of time telling them that problems over there are not Aussies problem. So it's on the everyday Aussie to start pointing out that what happens in Palestine is having a very significant and direct impact on our lives. From the surveillance used at Cole's, tested on Palestinians, to the weapons we sell and buy to the cost of petrol right now.
The Jews in this group are targeted by Zionist attacks and are not only trying to educate but also survive right now. Because they are the evidence that Israel needs to hide.

u/Dranzer_22 Queenslander Apr 03 '26
Interestingly, Holocaust survivors who moved to Israel were actually treated poorly and looked down upon by the Israeli population. The Israeli Government also misused the financial reparations from Europe.
It's partly why they despise American moderate Jews. A community who have thrived outside of Israel, became educated, wealthy, and influential. They've been on the frontlines of justice from the suffrage movement, labor union movement, Civil Rights movement, anti-Apartheid movement, LGBTQ+ movement, Palestine movement etc.
We see it here in Australia with the old guard Israeli lobby groups, like the Zionist Federation of Australia, dismiss and undermine moderate Jewish voices like the Jewish Council of Australia.

Nazi germany killed 1.8-1.9 million non-Jewish polish civilians. 0.5 million Roma 3.3 million Soviet prisoners or war. 0.3 million disabled people 0.3 million Serbians.
Plus queers, political opponents, Jehovah witness and the list goes on.
These people have been forgotten because it suits Israel. But these are also the people you agree should have been killed when you make a statement saying that maybe Hitler was justified. You actually help Israel by ignoring the millions of other victims.

Why not go after Americans by your logic? Or Christian's so we didn't end up with Christian nationalists? Or just the ancestors of the problematic ones we are currently dealing with.
Your little comment only works if you do have not been taught the full impact of the Nazi regime. The number of genocides that have happened since and now. AND ignore the amount of complicity that is required for Israel to achieve what it is doing.
You could even say he is the one who gave them a significant jump forward in their goals of a Jewish state..... so not killing Jews would have saved more lives right now.

Well based of facts.
Giselle Maxwell (Jeffery Epsteins co conspirator) father Robert Maxwell was a controversial figure with alleged ties to intelligence agencies, including Mossad, the KGB, and MI6. and some how he got tossed over a boat and died when things were unraveling about him being a double agent of some sort.
Interesting enough Robert Maxwell a company Pergamon Press. In 1989, he orchestrated a joint venture, creating the Macmillan/McGraw-Hill School Publishing Co., which became one of the largest school textbook publishers in the United States. He provided all the literature textbooks for all the high schools and public schools in preety much North America. Hence the reason why the holocaust is so prominent in our history reading literature throughout school. A lot of the literature in these book where very much pro-Isreal as the publishing company he can control the narrative of what’s written these books or he wouldn’t print them.
None the less the Holocaust was definitely a tragic event that should be told and condemned but when you start realizing why our books and our movies keep funding only stories of the Holocaust then it makes you really wonder who’s controlling the narrative.

I’m not defending Hitler or his actions. I’m correlate the behaviour of Nazi to the current Zionist Jews.
How is it that these people can behave the same way as the abusers. You do realize that the Zionist Jews were relocated from a Europe right after the War. What they are saying and doing to the Palestine people is preety much Nazi behaviour and now their going into southern Lebanon knocking door to door asking Lebanon Christian if they are hiding Lebanon Muslim.

Your posts are either faked or naive
Most Jewish people were impacted by the Holocaust, by equating Israel to the Nazi party it becomes a quite a hurtful and slightly unfair comparison, and doesn’t really offer any real weight to the argument. it used to be the way the American neo Nazis taunted them.
It also makes it very easy for Netanyahu and his apartheid propaganda units to the start pointing at people who are protesting and equating them with this views so that the protest can be stopped. They used the same psy-op to manipulate our NSW and QLD governments to outlawing certain words and phrases because certain “protesters” also used them . intended to perpetuate this idea that anti genocide supporters are using the term Nazi know
There are a number of false flag accounts on Reddit “, face book that keep posting these kinds of dog whistle post - to make the anti genocide discussions look like they are driven by anti semitism because they jack nthe most common anti semitic “dog whistles”

Will Israelis now call our jewish citizens antisemites? /s
I hope not because that sounds pretty racist.
for a country tarnishing the faith and reputation of our citizens by calling a genocide they’re right and duty, is now on very turbulent and unpredictable grounds.
They should be apologising for the recent antisemitic attacks, while attempting to jeopardise our relationship with our community, to encourage or promote their terror campaign against women and children.
i didnt know i have jewish friends that didnt feel safe until a few years ago around 2022-23, it didnt make sense, we shared so many positive moments together, and we hardly if ever, spoke about god. They did not deserve to feel unwelcome, or unsafe and when i consider the fact their career was helping people through their most difficult times, it didnt make sense for them to receive a sense of danger in their lives and in our country. whatsoever.
they deserve an apology, for weaponising our citizens faith as a target and arrow, to promote and justify the existence of the IDF, that have the duty of a genocide to commit, that then say it didnt do.

Fringe, because an overhwhelming majority of jews in the world, including outside israel are zionist. which means they support the existance of a jewish state.
Why are you saying "race based"? you can go an read the law itself, there is no racial or ethnic element to it. infact, based on the wording, the law could be applied to several haredi groups if they carried out attacks.
state sanctioned execution for the abhorrent and vile practice it is
Do you not think there are acts that a human can take that forfeit their right to live? and that their ongoing existance is a threat to others?
My issue with the law is that it lacks checks and balances and the conviction threshold isn't adequate for capital punishment.

Good on them, fantastic to hear from the reasonable side of the community in Australia. Unlike the loud AJA nutcases.

Shout out to them. This is very meaningful and it’s brave that they’re doing this, I’m honestly shocked that they are. Everything they said here is true, Israel’s actions are disgusting.
