This is an instructive story of how mainstream Australian Jewish groups are petrified that a) the public will hear critical and truthful views about Israeli behaviour in the West Bank and b) a desire to “protect” Jews from even understanding what Israeli occupation means. A feature appeared in The Age and Sydney Morning Herald last…

Recipient of Israel lobby hospitality, from Murdoch press, calls on military strike against Iran
The Zionist establishment must be rubbing its hands with glee. Another media figure, who has enjoyed those glorious trips to Israel to savour some Israeli apartheid, demands the West take action against Iran. Alan Howe, from Melbourne’s Herald Sun, has form. Here’s some of his latest bile: Islamists differ from the rest of us; we…
Playing politics with Palestine? Perish the thought
Israel’s trusted friend in the Australian media, Rupert Murdoch’s The Australian, today publishes a piece that is so banal as to be comical. Guess what people, BDS supporters and Palestinian backers are daring to “play politics” with human rights in the Middle East. And what exactly does the Zionist lobby and Zionist propagandists in our…

Murdoch’s Australian offers advice for #LeftTurn; go right, my blind followers
This was inevitable. Take a former speechwriter for Labor Prime Minister Kevin Rudd, current columnist for the Australian and constant public advocate for more right-wing policies that are rejected time and time again at the ballot box and your insights are inevitably tres deep. But hey, maybe failure will be rewarded? It certainly has in…
Israel lobby friend and Murdoch man defames Arabs in a good day’s work
It can’t be easy for a Murdoch editor to find new ways to damn Palestinians but the… Herald Sun’s Alan Howe constantly comes through with the goods. Here’s his latest that proves once again that the Zionist lobby, who sends people like Howe to Israel, creates individuals who loathe Arabs even more than before they left:…
