As an Australian, no we didn’t. We just had it put in context. Jews around the world are great people, the Israeli government and the hardline supporters are absolute monsters. I hope the Australian government tells them as much. Israel deserves no support and everything that may happen when it’s withdrawn.
It would be a victim complex if they actually believed their stance, but it’s really just a classic case of the abused becoming the abuser… or, more accurately, the genocided becoming the genocider.
No one that was in the Holocaust is in any kind of position of power in Israel, which makes it even more pathologically disturbing.
They were for most of Israels history, and they taught the current gen both nationalism, and how to treat the “others”.
