She will. I knew Virginia Bell when she worked at Redfern Legal Centre and I was a lowly law student volunteer. Her integrity and passion for justice had a profound effect on me, and I've watched her career since then, all the way to Justice of the High Court. She will not tick boxes.
Quite genuinely, this is why Frydenberg et al never wanted Bell as commissioner. She will no doubt examine real, appalling instances of antisemitism, and the extremism that led to Bondi massacre, but I suspect she will spend at least some time on the plain truth of Israel’s campaign for silence.

Trying to overturn a fair election in an attempted coup against his own government is the very definition of TREASON. We can never move forward until this is fully adjudicated. #ShameOnUS🇺🇸

Trump’s rhetoric harkens back to the muscular talk of the late 19th and early 20th centuries when American presidents deployed the military for territorial and resource conquests, including to Cuba,

I can not get past Australia’s very generously publicly funded Special Envoy for Combatting Antisemitism reciting social cohesion to advance zionist agenda when her husband and brother in law are among the biggest donors to Advance.
How grotesque. At a time where we need positive political leadership that brings us together, unites us, protects our social cohesion & multiculturalism these dills seek to exploit tragedy, division and fear. Shame on them all.
