“There has been a smear campaign against Palestinians… by smearing us as anti-Semites or as people who are celebrating terror and that could not be further from the truth.”
And yet the same guy says:
“I did, at the time, point out there were anti-Semitic phrases that I heard”
I don’t think he understands the phrase “that could not be further from the truth.”

So because a small group of people who were asked to leave said something anti-semetic, that means they all are to you?

Steady on. No need to get dramatic and accusing me of stuff.
If nobody said anything racist then that would be further from the truth.
The guy misspoke saying nothing could be further from the truth.

While it is commendable that the organisers toned down subsequent rallies, I don’t recall even a few bad apples amongst the Sydney Jewish community ever publicly celebrating the slaughter of Palestinians.

What exactly did they tone down, their inherent anti-Semitism?
