Comment on Australia sanctions Israeli extremists in response to violence in Palestine

  The EU is doing the opposite. France is fast-tracking laws to penalize pro-palestinian speech and protests as “extremism”.

  EU approves new sanctions on Israeli settlers over West Bank violence

  France joins EU sanctions pressure on Israel

  France bans Israeli minister Ben-Gvir from entering country

  This is a small sample from the last few weeks. What European governments and the EU are doing against Israel is by far not enough, but your statements are outright wrong.

  It does say Australia in the headline.

  A fair number of EU politicians have been pretty vocal.

  Australia is also doing the extremism thing (see ‘Between the river and the sea’ in QLD, protests in NSW, Vic). I see that more as a part of an ongoing campaign against protests in general happening widely across the world.
