As I wrote last week, when hate teacher Randa Abdel-Fattah threatened to sue South Australian premier Peter Malinauskas for defamation, lawyers guffawed. Mark Leibler, lawyer and national chair of the Australia/Israel & Jewish Affairs Council, said he “hoped and prayed” the case would go to court.
Then, as Leibler pointed out, Malinauskas would have a cracker of a truth defence. “If it goes to court, there can only be one finding,” said Leibler. “In what world are those things she has posted... not antisemitic?”
Even better, if Abdel-Fattah has to front up to a judge who forensically examines her litany of hateful rhetoric, it will not just be an embarrassment for her personally. It will blow apart, in a court of law, the whole lying, hateful narrative of the Pallywankers.
Abdel-Fattah describes Israel’s Jews as settler colonialists. Yet the Jews are the original descendants of the Canaanites who first settled the land Abdel-Fattah now calls Palestine as well as parts of Lebanon, Jordan and Syria.
Jews are from Judea. Judaism is the religion of Judea.
Many who call themselves Palestinians today would have once been called Arab Muslims and were themselves settler colonialists from the Arabian peninsular – most in the late 1800s when the land was controlled by the Ottoman Turks. Judaism predates Islam by 2500 years.
In fact, a large number only flooded into the area after WWI because the British Mandate brought economic opportunity to the region that the moribund Ottoman empire never had.
Hypocritically, too, the ‘pro-Palestine’ movement is grafted onto the Aboriginal ethno-separatist movement that likes to gibber catchphrases such as, “Always was, always will be”, and “sovereignty never ceded”. At the same time, they openly deny the unbroken presence of the Jewish indigenes in Israel.
And while many Jews who had been driven from their lands by the Romans 2000 years ago did return from Europe after the Holocaust, other Jews stayed on – both in what is today Israel and in the major cities of the Middle East.
As for the so-called “Nakbah”, in which they claim Pallywankers were ‘driven’ from their ‘homeland’, the fact is that the Arab colonisers fled en masse. Firstly, because they were terrified the Jews would visit on them what they’d been doing to Jews for centuries and, secondly, because Arab leaders told them to clear out, while they ‘drive the Jews into the sea’. The newly returned Jewish state, meanwhile, openly begged Arabs to stay. Some did: today they are Israeli citizens who all get to vote alongside Jews and can elect members to the Knesset.
In fact, the only driving-out was Arabs expelling centuries-old Jewish diaspora communities.
While Palestinians today mourn the 1948 Nakbah when some lost their land, UN Resolution 181 had offered them all the land east of the so-called Green Line to Jordan. When the Arabs were defeated after the new Jewish state was invaded by Egypt, Jordan, Syria, Iraq and Lebanon, most Jews were expelled from these countries. While 700,000 Muslims became refugees from Israel, neighbouring Arab countries drove out 800,000 Jews.
Abdel-Fattah might also be forced to account for the Arabs appalling behaviour in WWII.
Haj Amin al-Husseini, the Mufti of Jerusalem, spent much of World War II in Berlin working for Adolph Hitler. A renowned Jew hater and supporter of the Muslim Brotherhood, he bequeathed his people a legacy of failure driven by paranoid antisemitism.
Reflect on speeches by Hamas’s backers in Iran, including Ayatollahs who praise Hitler’s Final Solution and spend billions trying to destroy Israel.
Al-Husseini became the only Nazi collaborator leader in the post-war world to return home to a hero’s welcome.
Abdel-Fattah will also see her own lies laid bare. Lies, to damn her with faint praise, she only bellows in chorus with most of the legacy media and the entire Pallywanker movement.
Only last week on the We Used To Be Journos podcast, host Jan Fran allowed Abdel-Fattah to claim a baby in Gaza had “frozen to death” even though minimum temperatures in Tel Aviv and Gaza seldom dip below 10 degrees at the height of winter. The Guardian reported the child died of hypothermia.
Last year, many social media images of children allegedly starving to death were proven by the Free Press to be of children with serious long-term diseases.
Many journalists have fallen for the false Gaza starvation narrative and false claims Israel has targeted journalists when many so-called journalists killed in Gaza were Hamas officers. Check UK journalist David Collier’s website for yourself to see the names.
Then there’s Abdel-Fattah’s grotesque denialism.
Abdel-Fattah and AWW former director Louise Adler have been criticising Israel since the Hamas-led murder of 1200 women, children, old people and young attendees at a music festival for peace on October 7 2023. They have not been keen to discuss that bestial pogrom.
In fact, Abdel-Fattah not only, within hours of the massacre, changed her social media profile picture to an image of a Hamas terrorist carrying out the attack, she kept it for five months, despite claiming she wasn’t aware of the scale of casualties when she adopted it. She has also systematically engaged in rape denialism, repeating claims of “no proof”.
So, please, please, please get your arse in the dock and answer for all of that.
