Now living in Perth, Western Australia, the distinguished research scientist, London-born of Jewish parentage, is a derider of Israel, posting this on Facebook, for example, at the time of Bibi's highly successful visit to Australia early last year, when the recently deposed Malcolm Turnbull was prime minister:
Nor does he like President Trump's Middle East policy. For instance:
Or the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA)'s working definition of antisemitism:
In fact, he dislikes the latter so much that he's now written a long screed of his own about the definition of antisemitism:
Which is very much liked by Baroness Tonge:
As I showed here, the talented Garcia-Webb's forays into "social fiction" make no secret of his antipathy to Zionism.
But that aside, some of his tweets have been eyebrow-raising:
Not as grossly startling, granted, as these social media sentiments (brought to public attention by Aussie Dave in his post here), by one of Tonge's Facebook friends, anti-Israel activist and "human rights"lawyer Simone O'Broin (aka Simone Burns). The same woman whose drunken racist and sexist abuse of Air India cabin staff has gone viral on the internet (interesting take by David Collier here):
As has been widely observed, O'Broin's rant provides a stark reminder of the slime that lurks within the anti-Israel movement:

Here's the ghastly Pamela Hardiment aka Pam Arnold, for instance:
I wonder how Milady and her cobber Down Under would define that!
“… [Al Qaeda] recruits would fill out forms
ReplyDeletedescribing their health, age, family, and education.
Religiosity was also measured, with recruits asked
how much of the Qu’ran they had memorized.”

“Pornographic files are commonly found on the
computers captured when terrorists are arrested
or killed—including the computers captured
when terrorists are arrested or killed—including
computers found in the Bin Laden compound.
Nor are animals safe: a sniper rifle sight
using thermal imagery captured two Taliban
fighters satisfying themselves with a donkey.”

“The United States has poured billions of dollars
into Pakistan’s counterterrorism efforts…
Much of the money went to buy conventional
military equipment for the constant struggle
with India, and thus did little to help
Pakistan to fight Al Qaeda or other jihadists.
Corrupt officials siphoned off much of the aid,
and the money did not significantly improve
Pakistan’s ability to fight terrorism.”

PERSONAL COMMENT:
Expecting Pakistan to fight against Islamic
terrorism is like expecting the KKK to fight
for the civil rights of African-Americans.
Expecting Pakistan to fight against Islamic
terrorism is like expecting neo-Nazis
to fight for the civil rights of Jews.

This sentence SHOULD have said:
“Al Qaeda, like most Muslims everywhere,
rejects Israel’s very existence…”
