Comments on: Marrickville Council Condemns Israel https://www.jwire.com.au/marrickville-council-condemns-israel/ Australia, NZ and worldwide Jewish news that matters Sun, 20 Mar 2011 11:23:45 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 By: Mona Peli https://www.jwire.com.au/marrickville-council-condemns-israel/#comment-7802 Sun, 20 Mar 2011 11:02:05 +0000 http://www.jwire.com.au/?p=1227#comment-7802 Actually, Marrickville councillors voted 10 – 2 in favour of the motion, only Councillors Hanna and Macri voted against it but never let the truth get in the way of a good rant.

Even JTA, as far away as New York, can get it right – and right here in Sydney J-wire gets it wrong.

While Mr Alhadeff suggests that the motion is full of inaccuracies but seems unable to specify even one – but then isn’t he the expert on Israel who is unaware of Israel’s nuclear weapons?

And a question for Alhadeff, if Marrickville’s sister city relationship with Bethlehem is “unbalanced” why has the Gold Coast’s similar relationship with Tel Aviv attracted no adverse comment? Or do we detect a vested interest?
