Former ABC director calls out broadcaster not examining anti-Semitism

Former ABC director Joe Gersh has called out the public broadcaster for not examining the explosion of anti-Semitism in Australia.
Mr Gersh said he is a supporter of a “strong, independent and impartial” ABC.
“I observed independently of you and put on social media my concern which is why has it fallen to Sky News?” he told Sky News host Sharri Markson.
“It is a matter of deep concern to me, as a member of the Jewish community, as a former ABC director, and as an Australian citizen that our national broadcaster has not fully understood and dealt with what I believe has reached crisis proportion.”

    According to UN there are 1:1 ratio on the field, so it's the best ever seen in any urban war. IDF are good people. Now It's a fact.

    @@BLUEYGILA ok, what are your stats? It's not the total number of casualties that is in dispute. It is the claimed % of women and children within the total. Which has been reported since March. How many "fighters" have been killed? UN, 6th May fatalities: "9500 women and 14500 children". 8th May fatalities: "4959 women and 7797 children". A huge reduction. What is your comment to that?

    @JB-lx8cw calling a country responsible for genocide which is incorrect, but then going onto to call for the genocide of that country, don’t you think that’s a tad hypocritical, in this instance it is defined as anti Zionism and anti Semitism.

    I’m also deeply disappointed in the ABC. I am ashamed of the obvious bias and the refusal to look at all sides of a situation independently. The ABC has lost its way and is no longer a bastion of news and current affairs nationally and globally.

    (cut from the net). 'I was struck by the following paragraph from Michal Aharony's excellent article: "What is so difficult to accept about Arendt's hypothesis of the 'banality of evil' - and what has aroused opposition to the book in Israel - it posed here a new kind of consciousness. Contrary to the judgment given at the trial, Arendt did not believe that Eichmann 'closed his ears to the voice of conscience' or that he completely lacked conscience, but that the voice of conscience of 'respectable' German society doesn't tell him he should feel guilty for his actions". Isn’t the same mechanism at work in Israeli society?'

    In Israeli society, they are being bombed every single day by Hisbollah and Hamas, 600 000 people are evacuated from the north, each family has anybody, who were killed, wounded, kidnapped on the 7th of October, or fighting in Gaza. They didn't start this war or wanted it, despite what Hamas propaganda tells you. They're just fighting a war against an enemy who wants to kill them all, that's it, no more and no less. Your analogy is completely wrong and just a projection of some European complexes which are absolutely not in touch with this bitter war in the Middle East.

    Let’s differentiate between the Jews, who were peaceful contributors to Germany(and other European countries), and the Arabs who, even before Israel became a state, committed the same atrocities as those of oct 7th. Let’s also differentiate between 6 mil men, women and children who could not defend themselves and a mostly male group who started a war and are in fact known terrorists. In fact, the only reason antisemites so love the comparison between Jews and nazis (absurd as it is) is because they fully intend to hurt Jews, not just physically.

    Sharri interviews Joe Gersch a former ABC director to discuss the sins of the ABC in its coverage of israel and antisemitism. But Sharri does not tell us that Mr Gersch is a leading member of the melbourne jewish community. This is not journalism, a very important fact is hidden from SKY viewers. What a cheap con by sharri.
