The role of the Australian Zionist lobby in the censorship of Elon Musk’s X
It appears there is an internal battle within the Australian Zionist lobby over whether the disinformation misinformation bill serves their interests.
The Australian government is embroiled in a battle with Elon Musk over their request to censor X (formerly known as Twitter). This story unfolds after a renewed push for the "misinformation and disinformation" bill, a law proposed in November 2023 that will threaten free speech online.
The leader of the opposition party, Peter Dutton, who is known for his servility to the Australian Zionist lobby, initially opposed the law. However, he appears to have changed his stance after the Australian Jewish Association (AJA) complained about the wrongful naming of a Jewish man as the Bondi attacker by the Australian Channel 7 news, citing it as evidence of antisemitism. Peter Dutton has since reversed his position for a second time after Musk was asked to delete a tweet posted by the Australian Jewish Association depicting the stabbing of a Sydney Assyrian Orthodox Bishop by a 15-year-old suspected Salafist. Neither Musk nor the Australian Jewish Association agreed to delete the video, and they are now in a legal battle with the Australian government.
It appears there is an internal battle within the Australian Zionist lobby over whether the disinformation misinformation bill serves their interests. On the one hand, the law could be selectively applied to remove any criticism of "Israel", and on the other hand, it could potentially interfere with the AJA’s ability to spread Islamophobia to Australians to justify the genocide of Palestinian Christians and Muslims.
The proposal, which has not yet been made into law, is worded vaguely enough that it can carry a very vast net when it comes to freedom of speech. The Australian government itself will be exempt from the legislation. The law proposes that the following speech should be banned:
(a) hatred against a group in Australian society on the basis of ethnicity, nationality, race, gender, sexual orientation, age, religion or physical or mental disability;
(b) disruption of public order or society in Australia;
(c) harm to the integrity of Australian democratic processes or of Commonwealth, State, Territory, or local government institutions;
(d) harm to the health of Australians;
(e) harm to the Australian environment;
(f) economic or financial harm to Australians, the Australian economy or a sector of the Australian economy.
Point (a) “hatred on the basis of nationality” could be selectively applied to block criticism of the terrorist "state of Israel" or any calls for its dismantlement. Point (b) "Disruption of public order" could include calls for protests against the genocide in Gaza. Point (c) "harm to the integrity of the Australian democratic process" could include speech exposing the amount of control the Zionist lobby has over Australian politics. Former Australian Foreign Minister Bob Carr said that the "pro-Israel lobby" influenced government policy to an ‘unhealthy level’. Former Australian prime minister Kevin Rudd claimed that the Zionist lobby threatened to replace him with Julia Gillard when he complained about the theft of Australian passports by Mossad agents to perform assassinations, a threat which was fulfilled soon after. Such speech could be censored under the proposed new laws. Point (d) "harm to the health of Australians" can censor speech critical of vaccines made by Pfizer, which is run by outspoken Zionist CEO Albert Bourla. Point (e) could censor speech against the carbon credit system proposed to combat global warming (now conveniently called climate change). Point (f) "economic or financial harm to Australia" could include calls for Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) against "Israel" or calls to block Israeli ZIM ships from bringing cargo to Australia.
To conclude, if the "misinformation and disinformation" legislation passes, it could suspend social media companies that fail to comply with the law, such as X. This could depend on whether it is resisted by the opposition party and its leader, Peter Dutton. Dutton has previously called for the deportation of pro-Palestine protesters, a call which was supported by the president of the Zionist Federation. He has criticized Australian Foreign Minister Penny Wong’s calls to recognize a Palestinian state and decried Australian Prime Minister Albanese for not silencing Pro-Palestine speech at universities.
Clearly, this man is not a defender of free speech, but rather a water boy for the Zionist lobby, acting on their whims. Pity Australia and its democracy, with such leaders at the helm.
