The Universities Australia recommendation is not just merely unworkable or untenable, it is unconscionable. It should be set aside for the Jerusalem Declaration

This should not be standard that the QUT Governing Council accepts – because under the IHRA / Universities Australia definition it would be wrong to criticise Israel for war crimes, even if the IDF dropped a bomb on a QUT building. This is incredibly unreasonable

In my letter to the Registrar, I wrote that I have no allusions about how the State of Israel would have treated Queensland University of Technology if this institution was located in Palestine, given that the IDF destroyed the last remaining university in 2024

The UA definition reflects the propaganda of the Zionist lobby, by defining antisemitism in a way that marginalises other forms of racism, including criticising the genocidal, war criminal actions of the State of Israel. Its real intent is to silence academic freedom and criticism of war crimes
July 23, 2025 at 12:24 PM
The UA definition wrongly conflates anti-Zionism and antisemitism, and silences criticism of Israel — a conflation recently rejected by the Federal Court

In QUT’s response, they said that they had adopted the deeply flawed Universities Australia definition

The report also had findings such as this desperate and weird thing…

One recommendation was “The Council of the University should adopt and publish a definition of antisemitism…”

I had just woken up at my parents’ house in Mumbai to an email that QUT had released a report on the Carumba Institute’s National Symposium on Unifying Anti-Racist Research and Action, folllowing attacks on the Carumba Institute
