If you don't remember, I made a post about it at the time- https://rdrama.net/post/210557/palestine-enthusiasts-protest-in-front-of
Anyway, the article claims that the footage was edited by some Jewish group who refuses to release the unedited version, and nobody else has any proof it happened. Let's see what /r/australia makes of it-
So let me get this straight
The footage is there but we can't trust the evidence before our eyes because it was supplied by "the Jews"
And instead we have to wait for a group which at best has not condemned this behaviour to incriminate themselves and damage their cause by corroborating this evidence
Pure brain rot
Lot of words to say you didn't read the article
Another reason never to take the AJA seriously. Anti-semitism is a very real and disgusting phenomenon but making up stuff or editing footage is dangerous thing to do.
It is the same organisation that embarrassed themselves in protecting Hamas when they publicly called out Kmart for stocking a Christmas pork oven bag with "MERRY HAM-MAS".
I'm sure a pork-loving Christmas-supporting organisation is upset to hear that a product of their name is no longer going into ovens any more.
If someone managed to get a merry ham-mas bag before it got pulled I will buy it off you
That voice is Avi Yemini he's a Zionist Provocateur he's paid to stir up trouble
Big if true, Avi is a rightoid Jewish lolcow who probably deserves his own post at some point
Probably not true tho so
Finally, some Jewish sneed-
Yeah, that's right.
Every single member in attendance of these protests was a progressive, LGBTQA+ affirming, card carrying members of Socialist Alternative who all maintain an encyclopedic knowledge of intersectional feminism and not one of them would never say something mean or heccin problematic like "gas the Jews".
Lmao. This is just pure cope by Crikey. Why else would they dredge up this event from several months ago to analyse and enhance the pixels to call it into question.
Yes. There were at least some people there; not necessarily the majority; chanting anti-semitic slogans. Yes, a lot of religious fundamentalists and nazis share the same negative opinion on Israel that Crikey readers do. No, that doesn't discredit that belief. Because rational people can accept that a belief isn't bad just because some bad people believe it.
I know its probably giving the Crikey staff an existential crisis knowing that the literal nazi shitlords share an opinion that they do, but these mental gymnastics with this conspiracy bs is a bit much.
!strayans turns out the Opera House Lebs weren't problematic at all

"I've seen the footage and I heard what they said", "but you haven't read the article explaining how you actually didn't hear it" lol.

Then why did the organiser apologise? Interesting they don't address that in the article…

Luckily we have a redditor on the case to explain it- apparently the organiser was apologising for them saying "frick the Jews" not "gas the Jews", which makes it all better

It's conspiracy posting when a rightoid does it, and truth when a libshit does it.

I have some bad news for the poster saying rational people understand a belief isn't bad just because bad people share it.
Or maybe he knows how irrational all these protestors are. 'If there's 10 people at a table and one irrational person, there's 11 irrational people at the table.' One of the many funny things about this whole situation is how hard the usual suspects are seething that they can't just call anyone who disagrees with them a Nazi. There's been some tortured mental gymnastics to try, but most of them have had to broaden their vocabulary ever so slightly.
