The public rejection of Greens Leader Adam Bandt at the ballot box is a warning to all political narcissists. You will be shamed, disgraced and shunned in Australia because our country isn’t built on hate or civil war. When Australia fights, it does so to help end the wars of its allies in the pursuit of shared values of tolerance and mateship.

Australia’s greatest general Sir John Monash was a Jew; Australian Jews fought for our nation in both World Wars alongside Christians, Muslims, Hindus and Sikhs. One Jew a Londoner then, I read, manned the lonely rear guns of a Lancaster as it bombed Nazi Germany by night. He became the long standing Emeritus Rabbi of Perth.

Heads up Adam Bandt and your Green minions: our boys at Tobruk, the Desert Rats, didn’t save the Middle East from Hitler’s Rommel in 1941 for you to use them today to peddle antisemitism as a money stream for your own existence.

So, take your party’s “anti-Zionist” hate and shove it. Associated Press yesterday, in trying to stain Israel yet again, slipped up admitting that the “two million Gazans” who were in the Gaza Strip at the time of their murderous rampage in Israel on October 7 2023, are still there.

As the UN and ICC agree, there has never been an Israeli genocide in Gaza. Though it’s interesting that ISIS is claiming that Israel is now attempting one in Syria too. No, Israel is protecting Syria’s Druze from ISIS. The Greens and ISIS make a good political analogy.

The Australian Greens are a party of fraud. And if there is one thing Australia can do now with the Greens’ leader gone, it’s to take a broom through our schools and sweep out their teacher sympathisers who took children from their classes to march for the Greens’ Palestinian grift, calling on them to hate Australia, when they deserve and need a better education—a true grounding in world history and the ability to see its values so they can form their own nuanced opinions for a better world to come.

The Liberal Party took a deserved beating this federal election for failing to offer a national vision—at all.

But the Greens that Bandt vandalised, no longer rate as a political party. Just a wannabe, narcissistic, opportunistic rabble that would flush their hero Karl Marx down the toilet if Milton Friedman offered them some money.

Penny Wong’s Labor had better wake up to this fact too: Antisemitism doesn’t win votes Down Under.

And as independent Zoe Daniels learned, you can’t play both sides of the antisemitism card either.

Few countries have been beacons to the world in this regard like Australia, and guess what Greens? It still is.
