Are we in Australia to assume that no matter what corner of this nation , its people , its sports , education curricula. , creative arts , political commentary, the Netanyahu government is in full control ?? Exactly what does this say about those spineless MPs who sit in parliament ? Have they diverted their oath to serve THIS nation to one of Serving the Zionist Israeli government ? Are there not words for this abandonment of leadership ??
Here are a few words; cowards, sycophants, accomplices, morally bankrupt, servile, amoral, reprobates, pond scum, unrepresentative, avaricious, beholden, financially dependent, mercenary; that will do for starters!
As a lifelong supporter of the Carlton football club, I am disgusted with the club’s sacking of Captain Carlton over their conscientious decision to walk out of a fundraising event for the Israeli Defence Force (IDF).
How dare the club’s mascot be put in a position to support fundraising for the IDF. A foreign army! It’s not even the Australian Defence Force! And then sacked for having the courage of their convictions to walk out.
You seem to forget that members of this club come from diverse backgrounds with a wide variety of political views and economic circumstances. We are not all born and bred with money and influence. You should be uniting members through a common love of the club, not dividing us by supporting foreign armies engaged in genocide!
My membership has only just renewed and I’m not sure I want to be a member now. I am torn between my love of Carlton and my absolute disgust at what the club has done. How dare you associate the club with support of genocide! It is unconscionable. How dare you tarnish my love of Carlton! How dare you!
I will be publishing this correspondence on my social media.
Satire has little room to manoeuvre when blunt-force fascist farces like this are trumpeted and twisted by commodity media out of a principled stand by an ethical AFL employee tricked into an impossible situation.
I will be booing Carlton loudly and with Gusto. Why the hell was a club mascot at a Genocide Fundraiser in the first place?
I would give this person a job if they asked - they have just answered the KSC on integrity right there!
I remember about 6 months ago I spent over $30 at my local IGA, which entitled me to a free copy of the Herald-Sun. As I already had sufficient toilet paper, I declined. Apparently there are still some people who read that absolute garbage.
The thing is the people who organised for the mascot never gave a thought that someone would object. So full of their own ‘righteousness’. These are the same people who lionise Netanyahu, and his BS that he is not committing genocide.
Australia used to be famous for “Cultural Cringe”, no more it seems, all of our “leaders” , political, business, academic, sport are enthusiastic practitioners of “Zionist Cringe”.

I heartily agree , and the list has barely begun . There are people rotting in prison for far
less damage to this nation and its future .
I've just emailed Carlton:
To the Carlton President and Board

Great work :) Share it when you do!
It's IOF -- Israeli Occupation Forces, they're not defending they are killing.

Unbelievable

So much for conscientious objection
I stopped supporting them when they refused to back the gay marriage vote. If I had any paraphernalia left to burn this would do it.
There are none so blind as those that will not see.

Spineless nonentities one and all.
