Israeli President Rivlin has just declared his preference for one state , where all would have equal rights.
The Zionophobes / antisemites who throw around the apartheid bogeyman, seem to think that they are clairvoyants.

Two years ago. You sound like Trump over his swearing in ceremony crowd.

Dear Michael,
1,090,025 Australians visited Indonesia in 2016. I guess they didn’t go for the technology, science, medicine, start up etc but still found enough interest, adventure, beauty and friendliness to keep returning. Making an enemy of Indonesia does not sound like wisdom.

In a decade or two Indonesia will be in the top 20 economic nations; the so called G20.

Indonesia is a stable democracy and has fewer, per capita, right wing political extremist than Australia has.

Really Mr Burd, I can’t let your comments go. ” You would be the first to start whinging if Jewish zionists took to the streets with placards demonising and vilifying Muslims , Islam and chanting offensive remarks about Muslims .
Interesting Larry isn’t it that this actually does not happen , wonder why”

So are groups like Lehava a fiction? https://972mag.com/the-right-wing-group-trying-to-keep-downtown-jerusalem-arab-free/110658/ , or soccer hooligans beating up Palestinians in a shopping mall, or a group (I think it was Lehava youth), turning up to intimidate a peaceful protest outside the mayor’s residence in Jerusalem (I was there) or in the Old City to celebrate Jerusalem Day filmed chanting ‘Death to leftists,’ singing ‘Muhammad is dead (http://www.ynetnews.com/home/0,7340,L-3083,00.html) or firebombing and leaving slogans on a Palestinians home (see the video here with Yehiel Grunemann). The list is all too long.

Sorry Larry as much as the hard looney left love to use moral equivalence in order to white wash atrocities and human rights violations usually by the religion of peace you won’t get away with using this propaganda tool comparing all racists or arguing there are other racists and bigots .
The gold medalists would have to go to those that have a history of bigotry towards
Jews , Christians , gays , LBGT , woman , different sects of their own faith , Americans to name a few .
I don’t think any others would come close to these champions of bigotry and rascim .

btw You would be the first to start whinging if Jewish zionists took to the streets with placards demonising and vilifying Muslims , Islam and chanting offensive remarks about Muslims .
Interesting Larry isn’t it that this actually does not happen , wonder why ?

Only one point fast, Mr Burd. APAN is not a Pal Islamist Lobby Group. If anything, it is strongly Christian.

Further, every single pollie I met several years ago in Canberra when I went with APAN–and we made our different orientations clear–supported the existence of Israel.

As for the rest of your accusations, well, that’s a political difference about Netanyahu which many share.

And in any case, you miscontrue APAN. Its key objective is “To advocate for peace and justice in Palestine/Israel based on UN resolutions and international and humanitarian law;”.

I realize that George Browning and others see everything drift towards one state, but that is a widely shared viewpoint. So I share a recent comment of Brownings “Australian politics is at a crossroads in relation to Israel. Bi-partisan political support for a two state solution continues. If this policy has any meaning then both sides must be unequivocal in their stand against all settlements even to the point of boycott and sanctions. If there is no stomach for this, then policy must change to face the reality that Australia is dealing with Israel as a ‘one-state’ apartheid nation requiring the same sanctions as apartheid South Africa.” You can disagree with his BDS stance, but rational people see with real danger of a one-state apartheid nation he puts is.

And to deal with Mr Winter and Mr Nemesh. If it walks and stinks like an anti-Semite. I’ll call it out. It were not the case here.
Mr Burdo, I have not read that the the image was created by the
Shabak, whether or not they infiltrated various fascist circles. But it was circulated.

My correspondence is closed with all these 4 individuals.

The last Pro Israel demonstration in Sydney drew a crowd of over 1000 in 2015. And I am not part of a “Hebrew” population I am Jewish.

Unfortunately, Adrian, all Indonesia has to offer besides Islamic extremism and a history of Australians being murdered by jihadists is their gateway to illegal Middle East asylum seekers looking for free handouts and welfare, nothing much by way of technology, science, medicine, start up etc …….. Australia would do better by nurturing closer relations with Israel than with the corrupt Islamic state of Indonesia.
