"If the Royal Commission is serious about investigating the nature of antisemitism and its 'key drivers', it should begin with Australia’s Israel lobby – the leading proponents of the conflation of antisemitism with antizionism."

Foreign influence in Australia

"The reach [of the Israel lobby] extends into the newsrooms and it has been there for decades. Veteran ABC journalist John Lyons documented it in his 2021 book Dateline Jerusalem, writing that in forty years of journalism he had never encountered a lobby as formidable, well-funded, or relentlessly effective as the pro-Israel lobby in Australia, and that material the lobby succeeded in suppressing here was routinely published in Israel without consequence or controversy."

The Guardian shows "the same patterns of systemic bias, deliberate distortion and deceptive underreporting" as other British mainstream media:

@immibis
The article at top of this thread lists many examples of silencing by @germany

Your recollection may hint at an earlier incident:
#Oyoun, a migrant-led cultural center, refused to give in to political pressure and cancel the 20-year anniversary event of the Jewish anti-Zionist group Jüdische Stimme in November 2023. #Berlin’s Culture Minister #JoeChialo ended the center’s contract with the city government, effectively shuttering Oyoun.

They announced: “This decision feels like more than just a closure; it resembles the setting of a precedent that all state-funded institutions may now fear. The implications are far-reaching, impacting the very essence of artistic freedom and expression.”

There is a protest at 1pm in Dublin to request Ireland to "publicly denounce Germany’s role in the criminalisation of pro-Palestinian voices, and Germany’s active participation in genocide in Palestine. Ireland must lead by example in Europe, immediately enacting the Occupied Territories Bill".

In 1910 in Copenhagen, the 2nd International Conference of Socialist Women adopted the idea of an "International Women's Day" from a proposal by Clara Zetkin (German Social Democratic Party), although no date was set.

The "Journal du CNRS" notes that "Women's Day was therefore the initiative of the socialist movement and not of the feminist movement, which was very active at the time". The historian Françoise Picq adds that "it was precisely to counteract the influence of feminist groups on the women of the people that Clara Zetkin proposed this day", rejecting "the alliance with the 'feminists of the bourgeoisie'": https://lejournal.cnrs.fr/articles/journee-des-femmes-la-veritable-histoire-du-8-mars @histodons
