The Great Green Tradition of Hate

The shameful onslaught of open anti-Semitism in Australia and New Zealand shows no sign of abating. While odious Greens Jew-baiter Chloe Swarbrick is finally being called out by some for her repeated invocations to Jewish genocide, just as many in the Israel-deranged media-left are resorting to ever-more threadbare excuses.

Meanwhile, Muslim congregations in Australia aren’t even pretending that it’s not all about wanting to massacre Jews.

A Sydney Islamic centre where a preacher urged Muslims to engage in jihad has broadcast another sermon by a prominent Sydney cleric reciting parables about calls to kill Jews and spruiking anti-Semitic tropes.

Al Madina Dawah Centre uploaded the sermon on the weekend by Abu Ousayd, who it is understood runs the centre, ­titled The Jews of Al Madina.

The “parable” in question is a notorious hadith (saying of the Islamic prophet Muhammad) which incites Muslims to kill Jews. The hadith has been used, among other things, in schoolbooks distributed by the UNRWA to Palestinian children.

“Towards the end of times, when the Muslims will be fighting the Jews, the trees will speak,” Mr Ousayd said, citing Islamic scripture and parables.

“They will say ‘oh Muslim, there is a yahud (Arabic for Jew) behind me, come and kill him’.”

Mr Ousayd also claimed Jewish people had their “hands everywhere in business” and how they used “wealth to gain authority over the weak”.

“Jews own the majority of banks, who are happy to give the most oppressive interest loans to people in need, knowing that they are impossible to pay back,” he said.

This is just a day after another sermon in which the Islamic preacher called for global jihad, and praised the ISIS and al-Qaeda flags as the “flag of the Muslims”. He also lavished praise on the Hamas butchers who perpetrated the unspeakable horrors of October 7 as “freedom fighters”.

Once again, Labor’s Muslim MPs are trying to make it all about them.

Bankstown NSW MP Jihad Dib said there was a “a responsibility on all of us to use language that unites rather than divides” […]

“Anti-Semitism has no place in our multicultural society, nor does Islamophobia, or any type of vilification.”

Where does so-called “Islamophobia” come into this? Dib is standing on top of a pile of Jewish corpses, wailing, “But what about us Muslims?” Shame on him.

And shame on gutless politicians too afraid to risk the ire of the Jew-haters in their constituency.

The Canterbury-Bankstown Council, however, declined to condemn Mr Ismail’s remarks.

The Australian

These are the Canterbury-Bankstown councillors. Make of them what you will.

But Chloe Swarbrick can at least rest assured that her counterparts in Australia are just as openly, hatefully, anti-Semitic as she is.

The Greens have accused the Albanese government of “being complicit in the massacre of innocent Palestinians” and “aiding and abetting Israel”, after the party staged a free Palestine protest in the Senate chamber.

Attempting to ratchet up pressure on the government to “show some guts” over the Middle East conflict, Greens deputy leader Mehreen Faruqi demanded Labor endorse the United Nations’ call for Israel and its allies to agree to an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and “condemn Israel for its war crimes”.

Note that the Greens have consistently refused to unequivocally condemn Hamas for its horrific crimes against humanity.

Their anti-Semitic slip is showing for all to see.

Executive Council of Australian Jewry co-chief executive Alex Ryvchin said the Greens’ inability to condemn the mass atrocities of October 7 “without attempting to justify crimes that no decent person would ever justify, destroyed what little human rights credentials they had”.

“The Greens have shown themselves to be the enemies of peace and launderers for antisemites at home and murderous thugs abroad,” he said.

“Their continued patronage of anti-Israel rallies with their genocidal chants and incitement to violence has endangered Australian Jews and our society. They pose as pacifists but they know that a ceasefire will hand victory to Hamas and encourage more jihadism in the West.”

The Australian

It’s no coincidence that the first genuinely “environmental” party was the NSDAP. Nor that many ex-Nazis were instrumental in the formation of the first official Greens parties.

Revolting, racist creeps like Faruqi are just keeping up a grim, green tradition.
