Conflation of Jewish identity with Israel driving antisemitism, Jewish Council says in submission to royal commission

Progressive Jewish group calls for more focus on the threat from the far right and the recognition of a diversity of views within the community

Yes it is ...

and "Australian Jews should not be held responsible for Israel’s actions."

Correct ...

The problem is some Jewish Australians DO have agency in what the Israel Defense Force is doing ... and publicly voice their support for what the Israeli government is doing.

So much so that 7 Jewish Associations had to come out and advertise that they don't support what Israel is doing.
But all the general public hear from is the AJA ... who actually warned Australians to "Do not mess with us"...

And wear 'noose' pins in public, and are paid from the public purse to push for a ban on the use of words like 'watermelon' and phrases like "from the river to the sea" ....

Furthermore ... the "growth of far-right, neo-Nazi and conspiracist movements" represent a significant threat to all communities ... not just in Australia, the rest of the world too ...

So brave of them. Respect. πŸ™πŸ»

@Jinjirrie
This is very likely true. But, yet again, what I see here is an unwarranted conflation of terms, #AntiSemitism is not #Anti-Zionism and opposition to the #Netanyahuwarcriminal and his administration, while also being #Anti-Israel, is definitely NOT #AntiSemitism .

#Journos ought not to propagate the conflation of those terms, it confuses everybody (just as the #Zionists intend it to) FFS.

@RaymondPierreL3 must definitely, antizionism is not antisemitism, and opposition to Netolini and Israsel is not antisemitism. Many journos are white supremacist, and spew their own biases.
