AJA STATEMENT (From X here)

The Australian Jewish Association (AJA) is urging all Members of Parliament to reject the draft ‘hate speech’ bill

AJA CEO Robert Gregory said:

“Antisemitism has surged in Australia under the Albanese Government, and it is clear that decisive action is required. While the proposed bill contains some potentially useful measures, the manner in which it is being rushed through Parliament is deeply concerning.

This process denies Australians the opportunity to properly scrutinise and comment on legislation of significant consequence. I have spoken with members of the Jewish community who are shocked that measures purportedly designed to protect them are being introduced without genuine consultation. The Australian Jewish Association was invited to make a submission but was given less than two days to do so, despite the significance of this legislation.

The Government’s haste is particularly offensive given its failure to act on the Segal Report, which was handed to it in July 2025 by the Special Envoy on Antisemitism, an envoy the Government itself appointed.

It is also unclear what problem this bill is intended to solve. The Bondi Beach Chanukah massacre was allegedly motivated by radical Islamic ideology, yet the proposed legislation goes out of its way to avoid confronting that reality. By excluding radical Islamic extremism, it is difficult to see how this legislation will have any impact on preventing future Bondi-style attacks. If the legislation is expanded, as expected, it could perversely result in victims being prosecuted for criticising the ideology that inspired the violence against them.

Furthermore, the bill’s carve-out for hate preachers fatally undermines its effectiveness.

There are serious concerns that the Government intends to expand this bill to cover additional ‘protected attributes’, potentially criminalising the sincerely held views of many Australians, particularly people of faith. Ironically, many of the victims of the Bondi Beach attack were religious Jews whose traditional beliefs may themselves fall foul of future expansions of this legislation. For that reason, this bill will rightly be seen as an attack on religious freedom.

Any government that proposes to criminalise speech must act in a sober, cautious, and bipartisan manner. Governments should concern themselves only with the most egregious forms of speech, such as direct incitement to violence. This bill risks regulating subjective opinions and relies on vague concepts such as ‘intimidation’. Australia risks heading down the same path as the United Kingdom, where thousands of people are arrested each year merely for expressing opinions.

I am deeply concerned that invoking the Jewish community as the justification for this deeply flawed bill will, in fact, lead to an increase in antisemitism.

I have consulted with leaders from other religious organisations, and they share these concerns. Legislation of this magnitude must command broad community support. Australians, both Jewish and non-Jewish, must be given the opportunity to have their voices heard. I urge all Members of Parliament to reject this bill.”

My Commentary….
Just as I believe the case was with NZs Radical Globalist PM Jacinda Ardern and her Gun Confiscation legislation which immediately dropped just days after the Christchurch Terror attack,
Many Australians believe the Albanese Labour Regime has had their 500 page draft legislation… ‘The Combatting Antisemitism, Hate and Extremism Bill 2026’… that outlaws criticism of his governments immigration policies, and bans the patriotic fervor of Australians for their own heritage and culture was sitting ready to go in a draw waiting for the opportunity to rush it through into law.

Like Ardern, Albanese has attempted to use The murderous Terror attack on Jews at Bondi by Islamic extremists as pretext to call parliament back into session early so as to push through this absolutely shocking piece of legislation into Law before the people of Australia have time to rally against it.

The Bill is supposed to combat Antisemitism.
It does nothing of the sort.

Thankfully… due to outrage expressed on the Social Media platform X none of the other parties in the Australian parliament are prepared to support his bill… and as you can see (above statement)… not even the Jewish community supports it.

The above statement by the Australian Jewish Association clearly states that the bill utterly fails to address Islamic extremism which was the key factor involved in the Bondi Attack, and also the legislation is a violation of Australians Rights, and Religious liberty including the religious liberty of Australian Jews!

The proposed legislation is being described as even worse than what the Starmer Regime has enacted in Britain under which 12000 Britons exercising their legitimate rights have been arrested for newly enacted ‘Speech crimes’.

This is what Albanese intends for Australians who critisise his schemes. Jail and fines for you all!

It’s easy to appreciate why Albanese’s legislation is completely devoid of prohibitions against Islamic Extremism and hate because the last thing he wants is legislation that imposes an obligation on Australian Police to start arresting Islamic migrants within whom Antisemitism is rife!

The exposés how corrupt The Globalist Albanese government is and how the truth of the matter is this legislation has zero to do with addressing the real sources of Antisemitism and everything to do with empowering his government to suppress legitimate Australian resistance to his Mass immigration destruction of Australian society, and identity.

He has exposed his hand. This was an attempted MASSIVE power grab that had it succeeded would have mobilized the police against them in any attempts they made to prevent their Nation being irrevocably changed… for the worse!
Australians now have all the evidence they need to see Albanese for the snake in the grass that he is.
He is the enemy of Australian Heritage, Culture, and identity.
It’s no accident this parallels what is happening in Starmer’s Britain.
Both Starmer and Albanese work for the Globalist Cabal against their own peoples.
They both are working to overthrow their Nations Christian Western society of Freedom and Enlightenment values and reduce their countries into
Multicultural Globalist Tyrannies… unrecognizable to their traditional values and culture.
Australians cannot allow this subversion of their Nation to be propagated against their will… right under their noses.

Thank God for Free Speech on X!
Now you can see why these same Globalists are determined to Crush Free speech on the internet.
