Multiple anonymous witnesses professing false hearsay evidence which is not being contested by the inquiry or its lawyers.
Should those who feel that Israel is a safer place than Australia for Jews be compensated for the expense of moving to Israel?
Is it more socially cohesive for Australia to encourage those that feel :uncomfortable" in Australia to migrate to Israel?
"The Bondi Royal Commission into antisemitism and social cohesion has begun hearing evidence, but serious questions are already emerging about how that evidence is being tested. Michael West examines claims made before the commission, the role of pro Israel lobby groups, the media’s treatment of anecdote as fact, and whether a process meant to strengthen social cohesion risks doing the opposite. Anti Semitism is real and must be taken seriously. But if a Royal Commission elevates untested claims, hearsay and political narratives without proper scrutiny, the public deserves to ask, where is the evidence?"
