Jillian Segal, Australia’s antisemitism envoy - and previously president of pro-Israel lobby group ECAJ - claimed at the Royal Commission that the Gaza death toll was ‘grossly inflated'. When pressed to share ‘material’ to support her claim, she said it’s been 'well reported probably’.

Bisalloy's chairman David Balkin is a prominent figure in Australian pro-Israel circles, having served as president of the Jewish Communal Appeal - a pro-Israel organisation according to @michaelwestbiz.bsky.social. Alongside him on JCA's executive committee at the time was Jillian Segal.

Bisalloy's share price has skyrocketed since October 2023, despite its claims that exports to Israel make up to 1.9% of its revenue.

The ABC also used humanising language 1.58 times for Israelis to every 1 instance for Palestinians.

Our analysis of 81 clusters of articles between October 2023 and May 2025 showed the ABC consistently allocated more space to the official Israeli perspective in its Gaza coverage.

Fact-check: by the time the Sydney Opera House protest happened on October 9 2023, Israel had in fact responded, killing hundreds, injuring thousands and displacing tens of thousands in Gaza.

When Israel launched a full-scale invasion of Lebanon in 1982, Hezbollah did not exist in its current form. Hezbollah was founded in response to the Israeli invasion, which had devastated Lebanese Shia communities in south Lebanon.

The group has also organised mass email campaigns against UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese, Palestinian DJ Sama' Abdulhadi and several Australian masjids.

Security officials in plain clothes and masks are patrolling the surrounds to the Convention Centre, where Isaac Herzog is being hosted at a reception.

Legal observers say police are preventing protesters from joining the rally, threatening people on the outside of police barriers with move-on orders.

NSW public servants have been warned to "defer non-essential travel in and around the Sydney CBD" on Monday as the state government rolls out a massive police operation in support of Israeli President Isaac Herzog's visit.

ECAJ research director Julie Nathan's social media - including a repost calling Palestinians "bloodthirsty hyenas" and a claim that "Gaza = Hamas" - has come under scrutiny, with APAN @apan4palestine.bsky.social president Nasser Mashni calling the posts "unashamedly hateful and racist"

Sidoti mentions that journalists tell him of the "pressure" they encounter when writing about Gaza: "I’ve been doing human rights work for 45 years... I’ve never encountered journalists saying this to me."

Activists aboard the Sumud Flotilla also made shocking allegations of sexual assault, physical violence and threats of murder by Israeli soldiers while they were held in captivity.

Besides the phone numbers of Albanese, Sussan Ley, Scott Morrison and Chris Minns, the third-party site - which Deepcut is declining to name - also publicly lists phone numbers for Donald Trump Jr, French president Emmanuel Macron and former US president Barack Obama.
