Hamas-Israel conflict LIVE updates: Gaza ground invasion imminent as Biden warns Iran over possible involvement; Dutton accuses Labor of antisemitism following PM’s speech appeared on www.smh.com.au by Adam Carey.
Opposition Leader Peter Dutton has appeared to accuse Labor of condoning antisemitic slogans chanted by protesters at the Sydney Opera House last week.
While giving a speech in parliament condemning the Hamas attacks on Israel and subsequent rallies, Dutton said that protesters in Sydney fired flares, burned an Israeli flag, and shouted words “we should never hear in our country or anywhere else in the world”.
He quoted three antisemitic slogans chanted by a small group of protesters – which the Herald and The Age have chosen not to repeat – which was met by an interjection from an MP on the other side of the house.
It is not clear which MP raised the interjection.
In fiery comments that followed, Dutton said he would not stop saying those words.
“I won’t stop saying [it] because it should be condemned. The words should never have been said in the first place. And shame on you. Shame on you for condoning those words, or suggesting that those words shouldn’t be condemned in this place,” he said, to an uproar from the other side of the house.
“I won’t stop saying them, I won’t stop saying them. And the Jewish community here in Australia deserves to hear you condemn them as well.”
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese condemned the chants just 10 minutes prior, as he had on several prior occasions.
“The awful antisemitism chanted by some of the protesters at the Sydney Opera House is beyond offensive,” Albanese said in his own remarks, which were made directly before Dutton’s speech.
“It is a betrayal of our Australian values. We reject it. And we condemn it. Our country is better than that. And our country is a better place because of our Jewish community.”
