As Louise Adler and many others (outside mainstream media) have noted, this was not just about Dr Abdel-Fattah and AWW.

Cancelling the Australian Palestinian author Randa Abdel-Fattah from Adelaide writers’ week weakens freedom of speech and is the harbinger of a less free nation, writes Louise Adler.

A lot of the anti Zionist or anti Israeli posts here on Bluesky may be criminalised. Once the legislation is in place the tolerance levels can be easily tightened by regulation or interpretation over time. #auspol

All Peter Malinauskas' words about Randa Abdel-Fattah are a false equivalence, ignoring the dynamic of oppressed and oppressor. Palestinian resistance is legal and justified. Israeli genocide is not. I've seen far too many dead kids to tolerate any of this racist, moronic dribble.

Good on Dr Randa Abdel-Fattah.
A Premier publicly likening an academic to far-right terrorists is indefensible.
He should retract the comments, apologise, and resign.
