The Albo government's antisemitism bill is a rushed hatchet job. Nobody has proper time to consider it carefully enough, and it will have all sorts of unintended consequences if passed. It is the worst kind of law-making: moral panic induced, pandering to powerful lobby groups' demands.

Things the Bondi RC could examine to aid our public discourse:
-The difference between antisemitism and anti-zionism, and why it is dangerous to conflate them
-The impact of Israel's conduct on perceptions of Israel, and by extension Jewish people, due to the unfair conflation of Israel and Judaism
-The difference between antisemitism and anti-zionism, and why it is dangerous to conflate them
-The impact of Israel's conduct on perceptions of Israel, and by extension Jewish people, due to the unfair conflation of Israel and Judaism
For over two years now we've been having the same argument over what constitutes antisemitism. Is it possible that the royal commission could actually contribute meaningfully to the public dialogue?
Could the Bondi royal commission actually be good for our public discourse?
Probably not, but imagine finally having a substantive national conversation about what constitutes antisemitism.

Albanese is mentioning Deborah Conway and the criticise she has faced for her pro-Israel views as an example of why he needed to call this RC. Again, if you needed more proof as to what this was really about.

The idea that changing a definition to include criticism of Israel as being anti-Semitic and cracking down even further on anti-genocide protests would have in any way made anyone safer is madness. That the Coalition have so comprehensively jumped to blame here is insanity. Who is this speaking to?

Incredible the entire press gallery is actually buying the line (promulgated by Netanyahu!) that Albanese is personally to blame for the Bondi attack.
No one is actually explaining how firing academics for opposing Israel’s genocide would stop two people who never went to uni from this shooting.

A bit perplexed at the headlines about today’s #marchforhumanity saying “perilous” and “police feared the worst”. Surely the story is that, in spite of police fears, the march was peaceful, demonstrators full of goodwill and happily cooperated with police instructions to manage the huge turnout.
