Hamilton,
Regret that I have not had the time to
write you properly: but the below / earlier sent items should keep you
busy.
It was deemed by myself that I had to
put a stop to the ‘silly talk’ by our ‘troika’ of
troglodytes.
I think they will be careful in future –
and maybe you can expect co – operation from them – if you were so inclined to
request it.
The damage will be entirely rescinded
only by your incipient success!
I do not think you could go past Tzvi
Fleischer – he is a highly intelligent, good man. A straight shooter. He may be
useful – even if his boss AIJAC HEAD Mark Leibler I KNOW to be ‘troika’ –
oriented.
If you care to phone me in the next few
days note that I work from home and am available if you want to speak to
me.
In the interim I proffer this advice:
know who are your real friends and be aware of others’ childish, petty
jealousies. To listen to them yesterday in Mizrachi Shul was pathetic: I
remonstrated with them all: and even though my emails to you, to the editor of
AJN – and the likely article in the AJN are not known by them – MY POSITION IS
KNOWN TO THEM ALL.
Note links as below to my
person.
I am also known to Shurat Ha Din – do a
google search of ‘Geoff Seidner Shurat Ha Din’ to find my blog
refs.
Shalom
Geoff Seidner

GOOD ON YOU, SHURAT HA DIN!!
On 15/5
Professor S Rees of Sydney University thought the signing
by more than 40 Parliamentarians of The London Declaration against anti semitism
was ‘’childish, thoughtless but easily
populist.’’
Throughout it all we have the Vice Chancellor Spence seemingly
vitiating the boycott – yet allowing it to be promoted at his
University!
The
Executive Council of Australian Jewry has issued a statement detailing their
reasons as to why they are not aligned with Israeli Human Rights group Shurat
HaDin’s move to litigate against a NSW professor who advocates BDS against
Israeli academics.
In a prepared
statement, executive director of The Executive Council of Australian Jewry,
Peter Wertheim states: “The campaign to boycott academic and other contacts with
Israel is repugnant to all who sincerely seek a just and lasting resolution of
the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians,” said Peter Wertheim, the
Executive Director of the Executive Council of Australian Jewry (ECAJ). “The
path to a just peace is through mutual engagement, not vilification. Contacts
between Israeli and Palestinian academics should be encouraged and facilitated
by their Australian and other colleagues, not
stigmatised.”
The ECAJ has
long been a vocal critic of the anti-Israel boycott campaign. “The boycott
campaign is a calculated attempt to demonise, isolate and ultimately dismantle
Israel through the distortion of international law and human rights. The
hate-filled protests outside Max Brenner chocolate shops and the ill-considered
scheme of Marrickville Council to boycott Israeli products at a cost of millions
of dollars to its rate-payers, which was subsequently abandoned, have rightly
been condemned and derided by most Australians. All major parties including the
Greens, except for a handful of their MP’s, disavow the anti-Israel boycott
campaign” Wertheim said.
“The ECAJ
believes that the most appropriate and effective way to combat
the boycott campaign is to expose its deceptive and sometimes racist rhetoric,
methods and aims public scrutiny. In our view, attempts to suppress the
campaign through litigation are inappropriate and likely to be
counter-productive. It is for this reason that the ECAJ has had no
involvement in the action brought by Shurat HaDin and will continue to
fight the boycott campaign through public discourse. If any
individuals believe they have been adversely affected by racially discriminatory
policies and practices of the Centre for Peace and Conflict Studies they are
entitled to have their day in court, but we are opposed to litigation if
it is pursued merely as a political
tactic.”
Asked whether he
believes that all criticisms of Israel are antisemitic, Wertheim answered “No.
Israel is a vibrant pluralist democracy and its citizens – Jews, Bedouin, Druze
and other Israeli Arabs – are often its most incisive critics. But it is also
false to suggest that no criticisms of Israel are antisemitic. There is clearly
an overlap, as has been acknowledged by the European Agency for Fundamental
Rights, the United Kingdom All-Party Parliamentary Inquiry into Antisemitism,
the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe and the members of
parliament from many countries, including Australia, who have signed the
London Declaration on Combating Antisemitism and the Ottawa Protocol on
Combating
Antisemitism.”
