AFTER the paranoid but politically sly Jewish lobby raised silly anti-semitism allegations against Senator Malcolm Roberts last month via media, One Nation suffered a drop in polling and the Liberals suddenly decided they were a separate, viable force.
The ridiculous accusation by the Executive Council of Australian Jewry, was that because Senator Malcolm Roberts used the term “globalist parasites” in a 2024 interview with the independent journalist Efrat Fenigson, he had “normalised a well-known antisemitic trope”, the Sydney Morning Herald reported.
Fenigson, by the way, is Jewish and a critic of the Israeli government, notably of its delayed response to the October 7 Hamas terrorist attack. She is probably a target of the Israeli government and the ECAJ also – an important point curiously missed by the Herald.
Fenigson runs a popular podcast and is well aware of attempts by organisations like the ECAJ and the World Economic Forum to censor and persecute critics of powerful elites.
The ECAJ is headed by legal eagle Jillian Segal AO, Australia’s Special Envoy to Combat Antisemitism, who has been beating her “antisemitism” drum at the Royal Commission on Antisemitism and Social Cohesion, for instance, whining about the ABC’s negative coverage of the IDF’s obliteration of Gaza.
The ECAJ deputy president Robert M. Goot AO SC is co-chair of the World Jewish Council Policy Council and member of the WJC steering committee since 2015. The WJC is bulging with multi-billionaire members and backers, yet perpetually peddles the Jewish victimhood narrative.
Goot appears in our featured image with none other than former PM and Liberal Party president Tony Abbott, who, of course, knows which side of his bread his butter is on. Under Abbot’s current presidency, the Liberals under Angus Taylor have swerved away from One Nation.
Alexandra Marshall, the online editor for the Spectator Australia posted on X: “As part of their hit job on One Nation – Australia’s largest mastheads are claiming that globalism is Jewish. That’s the line. Protect the globalists by falsely conflating them with – uh – the Jews?
“This is like saying you can’t criticise Marxism because there were Jewish Marxists. Even when Marxism is knocking at your door.”
Marshall went on to explain that globalism “is its own unique ideology developed and practiced by all sorts of religions and non religions.
“It is international socialism re-branded for the corporatists. I am disgusted with every single journalist who is making this claim. Either they are f-wits or f-ing idiots.
“They are basically saying to us ‘you are no longer allowed to criticise globalism – you know – the ideology that is destroying sovereign nations. The media have lost their minds and they don’t care.”
Another branch of the Nine Entertainment empire, the TV program Sunrise, jumped on the poll results showing One Nation’s support dropped three points, suggesting that Pauline Hanson’s comments on “monoculturalism”, paid-parental leave and abortion were responsible.
The Jewish lobby’s sudden “concern” about a two-year-old negative comment on globalism smells suspiciously like an organised hit job and wedge politics operation in cahoots with media.
The ECAJ and the Liberal Party, are up to their eyeballs in global big business and populist political movements worldwide are threatening the grip of global big business on national economies.
The ECAJ co-chairman Alex Ryvchin made the following comment to the Herald: “Senator Roberts may not be contemplating Jews when he talks about globalist elites and parasites, but to the extreme right the words are interchangeable, which is why such references serve to validate dangerous prejudices and normalise them.
“The Jews were always perceived as a suspicious presence living throughout the world and without a national centre of their own, which made them the perfect villain in theories of national identities being polluted and washed away.”
Is Ryvkin so naive as to not see how such paranoid whining and influence peddling, as the late Charlie Kirk noted, simply reinforces anti-Jewish prejudice and stereotypes?
This looks very much like influence peddling and an attempt by the Jewish lobby to stem of the rise of political populism in Australia and drive a wedge between One Nation and the supposedly conservative LNP Coalition.
The Herald carried Ryvkin’s allegations just Senator Hanson was preparing to front the National Press Club in Canberra for the first time.
The Senator did a pretty good job with her presentation, largely ignoring the stupid stunt by GetUp, and fielded questions from some hostile journalists.
In the 2024 interview with Fenigson, Roberts spoke out against the propensity of the United States to use military force and labeled it “the world’s greatest terrorist organisation”. The Herald suggested such comments “will challenge Hanson to bring her controversial colleague to heel”.
“A spokesman for Roberts declined to comment but said the senator would be happy to speak to concerned Jewish groups. Hanson’s chief of staff James Ashby declined to comment, referring this masthead to Roberts,” the Herald added, demonstrating a typical case of the “polite media” hit job.
The Herald article then went on to detail Roberts’ “controversial comments” in the Fenigson interview, in the light of the fact that if One Nation continues its rise in popularity, Roberts “would be in the box seat to hold a senior ministerial or shadow ministerial portfolio such as Defence or Foreign Affairs if the party can translate its surge in support into more seats and a formal conservative coalition role at the next election, due in 2028.”
The comments that apparently sent shockwaves through the ECAJ were these: “That country (the US) that I had so much respect for is just the world’s greatest terrorist organisation now. American people are fantastic; they are lovely people. So caring, so frank, so easy to engage, so wonderful. But their government has been hijacked by these globalist parasites since 1913 and probably before, and it’s now controlling the world’s largest military force ever.
“They don’t even need a fraction of what they’ve got. They can walk into any country on Earth. They can bring Australia along, with us just like little patsies following. Britain’s going in after them.”
The Herald continued: “Roberts then said he agreed with former US Republican congressman Ron Paul that “every major war since 1913 is directly attributable to the Federal Reserve Bank”.
“Ron Paul has repeatedly been accused of antisemitism in the US, but has denied he holds these views.
“The remarks are embarrassing for Hanson, who used her appearance at a conference at US President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort last November to urge Australia to lift defence spending to at least 5 per cent of gross domestic product, and has steadfastly backed the US invasion of Iran.
“This is not the first time that Roberts, a close ally of Hanson, has created a headache for the party leader. He told a Youtube podcast on May 1 he doubted the Bondi terror attack was “a false flag” – a hoax where an attack is ordered to pin blame on another group – but he didn’t have the facts.”
Tut, tut! Shock horror! A Senator mentioned the phrase “false flag”! Will this be another “antisemitic phrase” that the Royal Commission will recommend be made illegal?
