"Is the #Jewish community being seen as too influential?

Not influential in the ordinary democratic sense. Communities organise, #lobby, make submissions, meet politicians, fund causes and argue for their place in public life every day. Business groups do it. Unions do it. Environmental groups do it. Faith groups do it.

But when Jewish organisations do it, the language often changes. It becomes “the #Jewishlobby”, “political pressure”, “powerful donors” or “media influence”. The words may be modern, but the suspicion is old.

That is why this matters to the #RoyalCommission into #Antisemitism and #SocialCohesion.

Antisemitism is not only hatred. It is also an explanation. It gives people a story about who is really behind events, who has too much power, who is protected and who is manipulating the system. It survives because it adapts."
