I see our Greens and feel shame

There’s a pattern of behaviour that shows Greens politicians are fishing in the sewer of anti-Semitism. Look at the rancid company they keep.

I thought there was something uniquely sick in Germany’s culture for that country to fall for the Nazis.

Now I see our Greens and feel shame.

Here’s a party inciting Jew haters and winning votes.

The pattern of their appeals to Jew haters is unmistakeable.

Let me give examples, before I get to Laura Allam:

• In October, the federal Greens – alone in Parliament – voted against a motion that supported Israel’s right to defend itself and condemned the Hamas terrorist group for slaughtering 1200 Jews on October 7.

• On Wednesday, the Greens demanded the Senate condemn Israel’s “invasion” of Gaza – in a motion that again didn’t condemn Hamas or demand it free its Jewish hostages.

• In NSW, Greens MP Jenny Leong warned the Jews had their “tentacles” everywhere: “The Jewish lobby and the Zionist lobby are infiltrating into every single aspect of what is ethnic community groups” and “their tentacles reach into the areas that try and influence power”.

• Greens leader Adam Bandt tweeted support for a “free Palestine” protest with a map of Israel and Palestinian territories all in one colour – so no separate state of Israel, just what Hamas wants. (A mistake, he says.)

When you fish in the sewer of anti-Semitism, it’s no wonder three Greens senators were listed as guest speakers at the Palestinetoparliament protest in Canberra, alongside Laura Allam, founder of the Al-Jannah Foundation.

So there was Greens Senator Mehreen Faruqi on stage chanting “free free Palestine”, just after Allam had had her say.

But to best understand what rancid company the Greens now keep, read Allam’s tweets.

She’s tweeted pictures of four Israeli solders killed in Gaza, adding: “Good riddance.”

She’s tweeted several media statements of Hamas, and called for an end to Israel: “Who’s (sic) stupid idea was it to put Israhell (sic) in the Middle East? You don’t belong there, GET OUT!”

She’s tweeted “there is NO evidence Hamas raped Israelis”, despite the testimony of eyewitnesses and forensic experts, and insisted: “Hamas should be welcomed in every single Arab nation as they take on the Middle Eastern enemy.”

Most shockingly, the morning after Hamas massacred 1200 Jews, raped many women and took more than 250 hostages, Allam gloated: “Woke up to some great news for our beloved Palestine.”

That’s one of the people now sharing a stage with the Greens. What a disgrace to this country.
