‘Reality check' comes in as Australian protest call for Israel and Australia's destruction
Zionist Federation of Australia CEO Alon Cassuto discusses the scenes in Sydney and Melbourne where pro-Palestine protestors held marches. 'There is a unique hatred that manifests when it comes to Israel that doesn't manifest in any other conflict around the world,' Mr Cassuto told Sky News host Steve Price. 'Israel is fighting for some very specific values … against a psychotic Islamist terrorist organisation, bent on its destruction. 'A reality check came when we saw that the same people who protest Israel and call for Israel's destruction … and worse, they call for Australia's destruction.'

‘March against Israel': Sydney protestors used Harbour Bridge as a ‘symbol of hate'
Zionist Federation of Australia CEO Alon Cassuto says the Jewish community is 'shaken up' after seeing the 'glorification of terrorism' from the pro-Palestine protest on Sydney's Harbour Bridge. 'This so-called march for humanity, which was promoted as a peaceful demonstration, was anything but,' Mr Cassuto told Sky News host Steve Price. 'These images are not about peace. 'If these people wanted peace, then they'd stand side by side with Jews and Palestinians. 'This was a march against Israel… this was not a march for peace.'
