Once there were giants - Biko, Mandela, Tambo, Tutu. Today, in Australia, they would be jailed for 'Jew hate speech'.

In his submission to the Royal Commission into Antisemitism and Social Cohesion, Zionist Federation of Australia (ZFA) Chair Jeremy Liebler refers to UN Resolution 3379 ("Zionism is a form of racism and racial discrimination" passed in 1975) as a lie. South Africa played a prominent and leading role in the passage of 3379. The resolution was that the political ideology of Zionism equals racism and racial discrimination.

Israel had a close ideological alliance with the brutal apartheid regime in South Africa and was providing De Klerk with weapons and technology. African nations viewed the resolution as a way to draw a direct parallel between apartheid and Zionism, condemning similar brutality in Israel's treatment of Palestinians, and aligning with anti-racist movements.

Australia's Envoy for Antisemitism Jillian Segal's family of Segal fled South Africa at the time that the apartheid regime faced collapse. She said life here was difficult at first, without her black servants. 20% of NSW Jews came from that place, and the influx of white suprematism into the diaspora saw the rise of Zionism in this country. Visiting Rabbit Dov Lipman said, "I see the Australian Jewish community as perhaps one of the most Zionist I have come across." We are not talking about Judaism: Israel is one of the least religious countries on Earth. (Haaretz) That is why the Envoy's Plan relies on redefining antisemitism to embrace criticism of Zionism. There's a tsunami of understandable anti-Israel emotion being reframed as Jew hate.

The Envoy is still one of five executive‑level office holders at ECAJ and chair of the Australia-Israel Chamber of Commerce. Their plan is to force antisemitism education across schools, universities, police, judiciary, and public sector leaders, monitoring media organisations' reporting on Israel, empowering the government to withhold public funding from institutions or individuals deemed 'antisemitic', revoking tax-deductible status for charities, assessing visa applicants, stronger legal action against social media commentary and so on. Her family invested in Advance Australia because they campaigned against the Greens at the election; the only party to oppose them and support Palestine and free speech.

In the Australian Jewish News in 1993, Sam Lipski wrote, “... the ECAJ and the ZFA allowed, and the Likud government encouraged, a blurring of the roles between the ECAJ/ZFA and the Israeli Embassy. These two bodies became quasi-diplomatic agencies.” ECAJ are also implicated in tax-deductible donations used to send Australian/Israelis to join the genocide. Israel recently released data on soldiers in the IOF; there were 621 individuals from Australia.

Bob Carr said that Australian foreign policy was "subcontracted to Jewish donors" and Rudd stated that about 20% of Labor’s 2007 election funding came from the Jewish community. A small network of genocidal actors exerts disproportionate sway over public discourse, policymaking, and the boundaries of democratic debate. Backed by governments on three tiers to criminalise truth-tellers, the forcible imposition of a single, all-encompassing ideology is a core characteristic of fascism.

Once there were giants - Biko, Mandela, Tambo, Tutu. Today, in Australia, they would be jailed for 'Jew hate speech'.

Mandela said, "I will never have respect for a government that wants to whitewash cold-blooded murder, but I must tell them that the truth will come out." That's our job now.
