Aussie Theater Rejects Jewish Group for “Colonialism”

Does incessant demonization of Israel lead to discrimination against Jews? Increasingly, the evidence seems to be pointing in that direction. Last month, a Jewish candidate for student government at UCLA was initially deemed unsuitable for the post because of her involvement in Jewish organizations.
Now, a theater in Australia has refused to rent a space to a Jewish group seeking to stage a series of performances about the Holocaust. The official reason, apparently, was opposition to Israel’s policies towards the Palestinians.
Hillel, a Jewish organization for students and youth, attempted to book The Red Rattler Theatre in Sydney. But In a terse e-mail, the theater responded: “‘Our policy does not support colonialism/Zionism. Therefore we do not host groups that support the colonization and occupation of Palestine.”
Following accusations of discrimination from New South Wales Jewish Board of Deputies CEO Vic Alhadeff, the board of directors of the Red Rattler appeared to back away from its original position. In an email to the Australian Jewish News, the board indicated the original response “does not reflect the values of  the Community Board of the Red Rattler Theater
The statement continued: “The Red Rattler condemns racism of any kind. We welcome organizations  from all cultures and walks of life and actively encourage cultural diversity.”
The original act of discrimination is all the more galling in light of the explicit anti-racism policy listed on the theater’s website:

The Red Rattler was set up as a space where racism, homophobia, transphobia and sexism are not welcome on stage, in the audience, at the door, and at the bar.

We ask you to join us in efforts to make this space welcoming, stimulating, and happiness producing to people regardless of their ethnicity, sexuality or gender.

Apparently, the apolitical Hillel organization did not qualify for this blanket protection. Somehow, even a theater that promotes equality “regardless of ethnicity” found room to discriminate against a Jewish organization.
The increasing incidence of direct discrimination against Jews parallels the increasing effort to single out Israel for boycotts and sanctions. While BDS leaders insist that their activity is directed towards Israel, the effect is an increase in hostility towards Jews with no direct links to Israel.
And if a theater actively engaged in fighting racism can discriminate against Jews, who is left to fight the growing anti-Semitism.

Further evidence showing the effects of promotion of antisemitism by the far left.

Legally it was wrong for the theatre to deny them since they are not the state and are free individuals.

but Morally the Jewish council is not being honest they promote Jewish sharia and have actively campaigned to have religious laws and special exemptions for Jews.
the anti-Semitism is not without reason, any issue with Muslims fundamentalists here is 10 fold with Zionists. The Jewish council is the biggest cause of anti-Semitism here, they are theocratic and work in conflict and to pervert our secular democracy.

Additionally they keep blocking naming Israel a terrorist state or human right abuser Which it clearly is, which then means Australian councils will not buy stuff from it.
Also it is not Isolating Israel we did the same thing to South Africa while they practised apartheid.

If you support secularism then the Jewish council must be dissolved since they clearly and openly advocate theocracy. No problem with Jews individually but too many issues with Israel and the Jewish council to deal with either at all.

And if you read further into the group trying to book it then the theatre blocking them is not anti Semitism if they would also block someone preaching Wahhabism, this group Hillel is another fundamental theocratic group that has no place in a secular community

The Jewish group, Hillel is a not-for-profit educational and cultural organisation which aims to ‘inspire university-aged young adults to engage with Jewish life’ and become future leaders

they are a group specially designed to promote a theocratic way of life that is in conflict with the Australian Secular ideals. they do support political support for Israel and it's actions so they are not just discriminating against jews in general but a specific Zionist group Hillel.

OMG so because they are just Jews, veya just tried to discriminate against them.
There is also no such thing as Jewish Sharia, what an idiot, there is Beth Din courts based on the Torah.
Again we are seeing again the true nature of the extreme left antisemitism.
Israel is not a terrorist state, that is you trying to claim they are even though there is no evidence that they are. Becuase israel has defended itself from aggressors and does so actively this makes the left make yet again unfounded accusations and why?
Because as seenb they prove they are antisemitic

they are not just Jews it is Hillel one of the most notorious Zionist anti Secular groups on the planet
http://www.theshalominstitute.org.au/Hillel/Home/Home
did you miss that part
where this is a political lobby group that HAS actually prevented sanction against Israel in the past... And actively try and get other speakers banned and even get professors and researchers banned...
Hillel are EVIL in every single way they should be removed from secular society like an ISIS support would be

http://www.inminds.com/boycott-israel.php

Beth din / Sharia same thing Identical I will not accept the promotion of either evil, nor should any secularist.

Sorry Brasdias TO HAVE to Justify letting this religious Hate group operate... sick of legitimate complaints about an Anti secular Anti democracy group being called anti Semitism they are ANTI ZIONISM.

It is a group putting on a play about the ho9locaust which has nopthing to do with israel showing you have not the first clue what you are talkiing about and again using this as a means to justify your antisemitism
If they are secular how on eath are they then trying to impose sharia laws?
Seriously, you just proved you just invent nonsense to justify your antisemistism.
Your view this group is evil is subjective based off lefty sites who's intent is antisemitism.
Nopthing on your links backed any of your claims lol
Seriously you constantly contradict yourself.
Je wiz, the extreme left are the new Nazi's it seems

Hillel are not a group of actors..... but they try and rent a stage for a convenient play from a group that has been open in their support of boycotting Israel yeah that's not suss at all.

their own words

Hillel provides an avenue for young innovators to collaborate and be
part of a movement to build and reimagine Jewish community.
Hillel professionals specialise in leadership training, curating unique
and thought-provoking events and mentoring student leaders.

Fuck me you are naive or just a straight up Zionist
Considering the way you promoted secularism the other week I think YOU need to work out what you stand for....

So a Jewish community is now religious law?
Cannot stop laughing if that is your evidence.
Go back to your playpen please I do not have time for someone so utterly ignorant they invent and make abusrd claims as seen above.
Thank you for proving you are antisemitic though, and it is always those who hold extreme left wing views it seems.

YES Jewish Community is code for ANTI SECULAR
Cause secularist DONT try and separate themselves from the rest of the community.

So now you are trying to say Hillel and the Shalom institute that are openly political lobby groups are just a little community group trying to put on a play?

that happen to have billions in international sponsorship

http://www.jca.org.au/sponsors.cfm

Yeah OK I return to my statement about your nativity or your Zionism.
For a man that supposed to support secularism and wants to see Religion disappear before Rape disappears you are a contradiction to yourself.

There you have it, so now Jewish community is now according to Veya a code for anti secular based on no evidence, proving further this is all about his hatred of the Jews clearly from that load of nonsense to claim with nothing to back it up.
I am saying trying to stop a play about the holocasut which has nothing to do with any political argument but about a horror that occured in history is showing how some people clearly discrminate against Jews.
Support of Israel as a nation is not an automatic right for people to discrminate, just as much as it would be if someone supported Palestine.
I support a two state solution and I do not back the argument of Zionism to have a home based on religious grounds, but I do back them having a home on legal grounds where they bought up land legally and then made the area prosporeous to the point it then had Arabs flock to the region also. Hence both have a right to a nation as before in the mid 19th century they placr was sparcely populated.
Jews made it prosperous. You forget the Palestinians also use a religious argument to claim the land, which is absurd also, but both  have a legal right to the lands based on ownership.
So again you poorly deflect because you are getting your arse wiped in a debate you know absolutely nothing about and even worse show up your antisemitism by claiming Jewish community is a code for anti secualr, man alive, Hitler would be patting you on the back and making you next in line to take over the Schutzstaffel with that anitsemitic view.

Anyway I have to go and if when back in a couple of hours you once again fail to answer and show any comparrisons on laws to apartheid or any evidence to a Jewish community being anti secular, then we know how disingenious some of the left really are. It proves beyond doubt some are very antisemitic because they still clutch at straws trying to prove something that just does not have any validity which furthers proves their antisemitism.

One last chance Veya, but I suspect it will be more feeble excuses.

Laters

bro I stand by my last post... you just need to visit their sites to follow the paper trail...

YES 'Jewish community' when used by a multi billion dollar lobby group that openly exists to promote pro-Israel policies means anti secular..

In other words you do not have a clue and invent things to further your Jewish hatred.
So that is now to two on here that have shown and proved their antisemitism.

So if you don't kiss everyone of Jewish or Israeli heritage's ass, you're anti-Semitic?

Fuck that, sounds like a bunch of PC bullshit to me

Which proves yet again you have not the first clue in reagrds to discrmination and yet again it is a lefty defending antisemitism.I will dumb this down for you to understand as it seems the left are clearly quite ignorant at times.
Nobody is saying genuine and honest critcism is wrong, in fact I support people to do so, but here where you left wing extremist aussie mate claims a Jewish culture is anti-secular is nothing short of antisemitism, because it has no validity.
Second claiming Israel is on a par with Apartheid, ISIS and nazism is not only disgusting to claim, but seeks to dehumanize israel which is again attacking Jews as a people. I mean this group were dsicrminated against from performing  play which was aboout the holocaust and because they support Israel. Are you now claiming that is not discrmination?
Now if you want to continue to defend those on the left who are anti semitic you make a mockery of standing against discrmination.

Wow, your condescension, insults and arrogance have totally won me over to your side. Tell me what to say, Bra, and I'll bloody-well SING it. I'll start by saying that having some road being designated Jewish-only and others designated Arab-only is TOTALLY not apartheid. Just like this was totally not segregation:

So that is your whole evidence for an aprtheid state is it?
What an ignorant fucking commie if ever I heard one.
Are the roads like this in Israel or outside Israel for security reasons?
You see this is the Jew hater Ben distorting the truth and at least we now know you are another antisemite.
The fact is there is no such roads like this in Israel but ones from the settlements and for security reasons.
Do I agree with this policy?
No, but it does not make Israel an apartheid state you thick idiot.
Jesus, the new Nazis are the left it seems

this is a joke right

Well when exposed the left do not like it. 

Facts are facts, ben just made a right tit of himself claiming israel was an apartheid state on roads not even in israel. Which means the idiot actually thinks Israel is an apartheid state, seriously that really proves his ignorance on this topic and how people like ben by backing such a view further incite hatred of Jews off the back of such a lie. It proves the left are some of the biggest racists going.

To claims this is apartheid shows why some of the left are antisemetic and nothing short of racists

The totally iniquitous thing is that these rules and colour codes refer to Palestinians Israeli's as well. So you can be an Israeli, but if you are not Jewish you can't use the roads!!!!!! The very definition of apartheid Ben.

So Stassi still cannot show any such roads in Israel which should exist if it really was an aprtheid state
The fact is such lies are spread to entice antisemitism and as seen the left are the biggest racists going

SOMETHING that also seems to have bypassed the English commentators on here ~

A LOT of these smaller theatres and venues over here aren't run by public bodies or government departments..

THEY may be operating in a council or State-owned building, but at the same time being operated and managed by either a community "trust" or a private company ~ meaning that they don't automatically have to hire out their venue willy-nilly to any and all-comers ~ irrespective of the building owners' separate policies on the matter.

TO A LARGE extent a lot of these smaller operations are 'private businesses', and therefore out of the state's own multicultural and broader community policies and statements ~ which also means that the final decision on booking is theirs ~ and not some bureaucrat, political organization, or a newspaper reporter with ulterior motives..

All irrelevant to the issue, where they gave the reasons why they turned the group down, where they were discriminating against a Jewish group performing a play about the holocaust, because of their views on Israel. You imagine if a Egyptian Muslim group had been turned away because they supported the present Government, even though the play was in regards to the Battle of the Pyramids against Napoleon. They would be discriminating against them racially as Egyptians
So in this case, it was antisemitism, because they are discriminating against them as Jews for backing Israel.
If the play was based on Israel and was controversial, then things would be different, but the play was about the holocaust.

That these Jews were discriminated against for being Jews.
