War is not a war crime

November 3, 2023 | Oved Lobel

The three most common concepts abused by anti-Israel activists are “proportionality”, “collective punishment” and “genocide”. Everyone needs to understand precisely what these terms actually mean.

I have never experienced a more challenging period to live as a Jew

November 3, 2023 | Joel Burnie

It is simply heart-wrenching that in the year 2023 right here in tolerant, multicultural Australia, I have to weigh up whether public display of my Judaism could endanger the safety of my children.

Hamas’s slaughter of innocent Israelis demands its rule comes to an end

November 3, 2023 | Colin Rubenstein

Not only was Gaza not “occupied” when Hamas took it over and made it into a dedicated terror statelet, Hamas is absolutely clear that similar “armed resistance” would continue even if Israel were to give up every inch of the West Bank.

The UN is effectively acting as Hamas’ ally

Distorting international law gives terrorist groups like Hamas impunity

October 25, 2023 | Jamie Hyams

The October 7 Hamas atrocities caused the largest loss of Jewish life on any single day since the Holocaust, and were characterised by a barbarity not seen since ISIS. And just as was the case with ISIS, peace will only have a chance when Hamas is no longer in a position to thwart it.

The Oct. 7 atrocities are already being forgotten

October 25, 2023 | Justin Amler

It should be simple: Israel experienced one of the worst, bloodiest, most inhuman terror attacks in modern times, perpetrated by a genocidal extremist group listed as a terrorist organisation in Australia and around the world. It has the right and duty under international law to do whatever is necessary to defend itself from this terror group, which in the current circumstances can only mean removing that terror group’s ability to run Gaza as a permanent armed terrorist camp. Why is this so hard for people to remember and understand?

Unprincipled Western media outlets ‘amplify terrorism’ by parroting Hamas’ lies about the deadly Gaza hospital bombing

October 24, 2023 | Oved Lobel

The last few years have seen an explosion of moral panic over the dangers of misinformation and disinformation. Yet it’s quite clear when it comes to Israel that many Western journalists are great purveyors of both, and seem constitutionally incapable of accurately reporting on the country, from the broader context down to the basic details.
