Good on Dr Randa Abdel-Fattah.

A Premier publicly likening an academic to far-right terrorists is indefensible.
He should retract the comments, apologise, and resign.

How the hell do we live in a place where @albomp applauds the right of Iranians to protest their government yet AT THE SAME TIME heads a party which has made protest unlawful in at least one state AND intends to legally curtail the right of Aussies to protest a fucking genocide?

Still shaking my head that Malinauskus, after pressuring the board for months to cancel Abdel-Fattah, had the effrontery to add:

“The people who run this festival, which is the board … have got this into a pretty awful situation.”

Israel just fired on Spanish UN Peacekeepers, if they were Russian or Iranian there would be instant condemnation.

Because they are Israeli there won't be a sound.

Adelaide Festival Board & Premier Peter Malinauskas made a race-based consience choice by erasuring the 10,000+ First Nations people who were massacred by British soliders, Aust police & settlers during 1788 to 1930. Some single massacres resulted in 100s of deaths.

In Albo's new antisemitism bill, the definition of "hate crime", which underpins the new regime to proscribe "hate groups" like the Nazis, specifically excludes "advocating genocide". That is, advocating genocide is treated as not being a racist hate crime. Now, why would that be?

It just seems to us Australia is about to bring in laws to make it illegal to criticise or protest the people who are murdering tens of thousands of children and our media is silent on it and if true it’s impossible to recognise this fucking country at all any more …

Yes, I agree they’re ignoring Gaza, like most Australian press, sadly

I read Ha’aretz, Al Jazeera, and others, for news of Gaza

Is it Morry Schwartz’s doing? Probably. And they’ve stopped their journalists going on 7am, which is very poor

But the coverage of Robodebt & NDIS has been phenomenal

What’s the point of writers’ festivals — or, for that matter, writers — if they can’t discuss issues that matter? Australian arts administrators would rather destroy the whole sector than allow Palestinians to speak about genocide. It’s beyond shameful.

All Peter Malinauskas' words about Randa Abdel-Fattah are a false equivalence, ignoring the dynamic of oppressed and oppressor. Palestinian resistance is legal and justified. Israeli genocide is not. I've seen far too many dead kids to tolerate any of this racist, moronic dribble.

"Authoritarian states start by targeting the most vulnerable, those most easily demonized — the undocumented, students on college campuses who protest genocide, antifa, the so-called radical left, Muslims, poor people of color, intellectuals and liberals."

Dr Randa Abdel-Fattah has issued a defamation notice to South Australian Premier Peter Malinauskas over comments he made to the media comparing her to violent extremist terrorists. Several media outlets repeated those remarks without challenge and may also be exposed to defamation liability.
