'Precursor to violence': Pro-Palestine uni protests 'don't represent Australian
The chants and flags seen at pro-Palestine university protests “do not represent our Australian values” as they are a “precursor to actual violence” against Jews, explains Centre for Youth Policy Director Freya Leach. “When you are chanting ‘from the river to the sea’, when you are chanting ‘Allahu Akbar’ on campuses, what comes after that?” she asked Sky News host Danica De Giorgio. Ms Leach urged politicians and university staff to “take these threats seriously”. “When they are calling for violence against Jews, let’s not just write them off as crazy student protesters because it is scary and it is the precursor to actual violence,” she said. “These encampments, these do not represent our Australian values.”
