Calls for academic to be sacked after ‘encouraging’ children to chant anti-Israel slogans
Shadow Education Minister Sarah Henderson has called for Macquarie University academic Randa Abdel-Fattah to be sacked and stripped of grant funding after she was seen '‘encouraging" children to chant anti-Israel slogans.
It comes as a video shows Ms Abdel-Fatah standing with children at Sydney University and clapping along as a young child leads a chant of “intifada, intifada”.
Ms Henderson said Ms Abdel-Fatah should be stripped of her Australian Research Council grant funding and removed from her position at Macquarie University.
“I’ve called for that grant, a very substantial amount of money $837,000, to be terminated - again, the Education Minister Jason Clare has refused to intervene which is absolutely pathetic, absolutely spinless,” Ms Henderson told Sky News host Chris Kenny.
“It is very clear that this academic has breached the responsible code of research which applies to every Australian Research Council grant.
“The indoctrination of children, encouraging them to make these threatening and violent chants is absolutely appalling.
“She needs to be sacked and the ARC grant needs to be cancelled.”

Sacked? She should be arrested, charged and, depending on her citizenship status, either deported or incarcerated.

It’s deeply disturbing that the generation of parents have worked hard and paid for young people to go to universities to be radicalised and used by activists
Universities used to be a place of learning and you could take pride in getting a placing. Now they are places for protesters to gather. Pro Palestine chants give them something new, they must have grown tired of the climate change thing.

CHILD ABUSE MONEY TO UNI SHOULD BE WITHDRAWN AND CHARGES
Please tell me were those children Muslim? Because the lens was blurred. Understandably, because the child leading them sounded no older than six years of age. But, yet there is more. This type behaviour is the training given to Palestinian children in Gaza and the West Bank (Judea and Samaria).
Notice how all western countries have the exact same behaviors happening simultaneously? Not a coincidence.
using children to spew your political war chants is a line that should never be crossed. I don't care what side anyone takes on this palatine or Isreal war; kids should not be dragged into adult politics. Same thing for Russia and Ukraine; leave the kids out of this.
It is a signal ! Take it for what it’s worth but it isn’t good !

Children have an innate right to innocence as well as all the status that Human rights imbibe. This "academic" is using her funded privilege to influence young innocent minds who are incapable of understanding the context of what they are chanting even if it may have some relevant context ,which it doesn't, and her behaviour is abhorrent, deeply disturbing and reeks of the most blatant self interest imaginable. Defund and dismiss her immediately
These people are so concerned about the children then poison their minds with this crap and CRT 🤦😄
Disgusting behaviour and my niece years ago thought it was to do drugs because a uni lecturer stated as a country we are suppressed and drugs are an understandable way to cope Load of B.S influencing young minds
Not just sacked but arrested
Yep. Your job is to educate not to get involved in political movements.
remember when groups in NY forced diners to say Black Lives Matter?
Hamas is an Arabic acronym for Harakat al-Muqawamah al-Islamiyya," which means "The Islamic Resistance Movement." But "hamas" is also an Arabic word that means "zeal." Although Arabic and Hebrew are sister languages, the Hebrew meaning of "chamas" is "violence," according to the Hebrew-English volume of Reuben Alcalay's Hebrew-English, English-Hebrew dictionary. "Cruelty" and "injustice" are additional definitions, but not "zeal." Truth is thus stranger than fiction. For Israel and for Jews everywhere, chamas indeed means violence, in its terrorist form. A second curiosity of language: In Spanish the word "jamas" pronounced the same way as in Hebrew, means "ever and "forever." In their zeal to eliminate Israel from the face of the earth, a vow they regularly and ardently proclaim, Hamas terrorists leave no doubt in anyone's mind that they will never ever cease their efforts to do so.

Sarah Henderson, former employee of "our" ABC, is talking the good talk here, but does she support the Coalition's lack of interest in a Royal Commission into draconian government behaviour during Covid? Does she support "misinformation" laws or Australians being subjected to proposed WHO intrusions into civil liberties? These are vote deciding issues.
Politics should be kept out of the classroom. They can make their own minds up when they are older.
A balanced article was published in Fairfax today about the tents on campuses, the trash tabloid style media are part of the problem.
This is disgusting! It's not safe - why do we want this kind of division in our communities?
Twelve months ago, few of these students could have pointed out Gaza on a map, and they were probably unable to spell it either.
Give you good idea who israel is dealing with.
I think the university professors need a bit of a slap around. They are woke but not awake! If these people are academics the universities are in big trouble!

Thought indoctrination was the job of politicians and religious types, not scientists and educators 🤷 silly me, eh!

Again goes to show words, policies and procedures are all just spin. Because when they clearly should be applied, cowardice prevails. Pathetic.

SKy UK showed a vid of somebody lobbed a Firework into the protesters camps and it triggered violence with one man from the Palestinian side dripping in blood. So its awfully one sided. But coming from the same company. You guys sister in UK. but i guess in AU it is all show dependent.

Firstly, the English translation for "intafada" is "resistance" which is not a "threatening and violent chant", Sarah. Secondly, don't be crying about "indoctrination of children" on a propaganda channel that wants to indoctrinate children. And you want to be the nation's Education Minister???
