🇦🇺🔥📢 The Australian Royal Commission into Antisemitism and Social Cohesion website is now live - and the pro-Israel lobby objectives are clear.

Let’s address the elephant in the room.

For two years Australians have protested the actions of the Israeli state — actions that have been subject to rulings by the UN Security Council, the ICJ, the ICC and multiple UN bodies.

Yet this narrative is being pushed:

Criticism of Israel or political Zionism = antisemitism.

Watch the language carefully. The same framing appears in lobby communications. The same framing appears in sections of the Murdoch press. The same framing repeated over and over during Herzog’s visit last week.

The objective is clear:

• Redefine political criticism as racial hatred

• Lock in the IHRA definition in its broadest interpretation

• Establish monitoring structures to police dissent

Meanwhile:

• The UN Security Council (2016) reaffirmed settlements are illegal

• The ICJ (2024) found the occupation unlawful

• UN experts (2024–25) have raised genocide and starvation concerns

• The ICC has issued arrest warrants for Israeli leadership

• An Australian Federal Court judge explicitly stated that criticism of Zionism is not inherently antisemitic

Australians protesting these findings are not inventing anything. They are responding to documented legal and institutional determinations.

And the evidence of their own eyes.

So the question is simple:

Is this Royal Commission prepared to examine all sources of social division — including the political lobbying structures shaping the narrative?

And that narrative being not to Australia’s benefit - but to that of a foreign state. 🇮🇱

Watch closely.
