YouTube video by Palestine Justice Movement Conversation with Dr Nick Riemer and Professor John Keane - Legal warfare on pro-Palestine activism

Conversation between John Keane, Ahmed Alabadla and me on resisting lawfare for genocide, and the importance of not giving Zionists what they want. Thanks to Ahmed, John and everyone who came and contributed to the crowdfund for our case. www.youtube.com/watch?v=6WPz...

We are delighted and relieved by Justice Kennett’s decision this afternoon, which is a significant step forward for our side, and places real restrictions on the applicants’ ability to conduct Zionist lawfare against us. @marquelawyers.com.au

NSW Supreme Court ruling shows Minns' moral panic is no basis for policymaking NSW’s protest laws are, charitably, a mess.

The current state of NSW protest laws is what you get when politicians combine laziness with false urgency

David Marr’s hatchet job of Chris Hedges last night was appalling. Marr often conducts interviews as though he thinks he’s in a Year 10 debating competition - he doesn’t actually care about what’s being said and nor does he want to fight injustice. A master class in complacency. Terrible.

University of Sydney argues academic’s article not racist against Jewish people as ‘Zionism is a political concept’ Case taken by academics against two colleagues and the university is considered a major test case for hate speech in Australia

Solidarity with @nickriemer.bsky.social, @professorjkeane.bsky.social and @sydney.edu.au for standing up to another Zionist attempt to silence opposition to their genocide.

Sunday at Prince Alfred Park: 10.30 for music, then speeches before joining the Palestine demo in Hyde Park.

Send a message to the racist losers and Nazis behind the 'March for Australia' in Sydney: crawl back under your rocks.

“Historians have a word for Germans who joined the Nazi party, not because they hated Jews, but out of a hope for restored patriotism, or a sense of economic anxiety, or a hope to preserve their religious values, or dislike of their opponents, or raw political opportunism, or convenience, or ignorance, or greed. That word is "Nazi." Nobody cares about their motives anymore. They joined what they joined. They lent their support and their moral approval. And, in so doing, they bound themselves to everything that came after. Who cares any more what particular knot they used in the binding?” A.R. Moxon

It bears repeating eh:

And here is the crowdfunding link itself: chuffed.org/project/1432....

Media release: the massive public response to John Keane and my crowdfunding appeal, for which we are enormously grateful, shows that people reject the Israel lobby’s slur that support for Palestine is antisemitic. We will never allow Zionists to bully us into silence.

Thanks to Gwen Velge and @a4pwa.bsky.social for this conversation.

The End of Argument: Palestine Advocacy After October 7th A conversation with Nick Riemer

The End of Argument: Palestine Advocacy After October 7th
open.substack.com/pub/academic...

It's started. With John Keane and some of our fantastic legal team after the first hearing of the Zionist lawfare case against us at the Federal Court of Australia. Zionists are suing us for 'race hate' because we're opposing a genocide. We'll be launching crowdfunding soon.

Absolutely massive turnout from people of Sydney marching over Sydney Harbour Bridge calling for an immediate ceasefire and end to the genocide in Gaza. March so big NSW Police have now turned us around back over the bridge.. #freepalestine

Allow the March for Gaza on the Sydney Harbour Bridge! Israel's deliberate starvation of 2.1 million Palestinians in Gaza has reached catastrophic levels. According to the UN one third of Palestinians in the Gaza Strip have not eaten for days. 40,000 babi...

The enablers Pure hearts and bloody hands in a genocide I used to mostly think of the powerful bureaucrats at the head of major institutions – public broadcasters, universities, arts bodies, government agencies…

I wrote this to try and get inside the heads of the leaders of major social institutions who effectively support the genocide while claiming to oppose it. This one was a long time in the making. I hope my anger comes through.

Statement on the escalating lawfare attack on John Keane & me by Joseph Toltz, Ariel Eisner, Suzanne Rutland & Yaniv Levy.

Specious claims by Zionists that opposing genocide is antisemitic, & that redressing their alleged victimhood should be a priority, don't bear scrutiny. @marquelawyers.com.au

I'll be talking about my book on the academic boycott of Israel next Tuesday at 9pm Sydney time, 4.30 Indian Standard Time. Register at the link: forms.gle/6uah8weMKgHK....

In the face of genocide in Palestine, "we should not have to talk about universities in the West. But nowhere in society has the breakdown of liberal institutions under Zionist pressure been faster or more obvious.”

In their hounding of Palestine solidarity activists, university leaders have made acquiescing to the killing of tens upon tens of thousands of Palestinians the price of education. An assessment from me in Overland of the Zionist-sponsored collapse of the university. overland.org.au/2025/04/geno...

Trump’s War on the Palestine Movement Is Something Entirely New Never before has a government repressed its citizens’ free speech and academic freedom so brutally in order to protect an entirely different country.

'Zionism can reclaim its hegemonic status … only by destroying the very institutions it wants to “save” for itself. This is not a sign of strength; it is yet one more indicator of Zionism’s terminal decline': Saree Makdisi on campus Zionism. www.thenation.com/article/soci...

There's something about holding an actual copy of your book that makes it all feel real. Thanks to everyone who nourished this piece of work and thanks to @mcgillqueensup.bsky.social for making it look lovely. Official publication is in May. You can order a copy here: www.mqup.ca/dangers-of-y... 🗃️

Earlier this year, John Keane and I invited the AHRC to terminate the Zionist ‘lawfare’ complaint of 'racial hatred' against us. We are pleased that this has now happened. The complainants must now decide whether they are prepared to risk testing their foolish allegations before the Federal Court.

'We see what’s happening in the United States' 'Antisemitism' crackdown intensifies at Sydney University

Pretty shocking abuse of basic governance processes at Sydney University: in its haste to appease the pro-Israel lobby, management falsely claimed that the Academic Board had endorsed a new Zionist-friendly antisemitism definition. Great work by Alex McKinnon uncovering this.

Sydney Pro-Palestinians Call Out Pitiful Major Party Form on Ongoing Gaza Genocide With the resumption of the Gaza genocide, the Sydney pro-Palestinian movement is once again meeting in the park to discuss the failure of local leaders to address the carnage.

“I wonder have we ever experienced such an intense display of depravity and violence, as the one that we are currently seeing unfolding in Gaza, the West Bank and Lebanon?” asked Dr Nick Riemer @nickriemer.bsky.social

In a genocide, Sydney Uni is letting open Israeli propaganda organisations and serving members of the Israeli military use its campus to justify war crimes and discredit the Palestine solidarity movement.

This event has been cancelled at Monash Uni. It should be cancelled at USyd too.

Supporting Israel’s genocide is the compulsory admission ticket to social and political power in the West: my speech at today's Free Palestine demonstration in Sydney.

Congratulations to the large numbers who came out despite the terrible weather.

Victoire inattendue en commission spéciale ce lundi, mon amendement pour supprimer l'HCERES vient d'être voté !

Dans quelques jours en séance, ce pourrait être la fin de cette instance bureaucratique inutile qui parasite le bon fonctionnement de la science et pousse à la compétition !

Universities Australia have obediently folded to Zionist demands to stigmatize and outlaw critique on campus about Israel. Proud to be with staff and students of all faiths and backgrounds at Sydney Uni who refuse to be silenced in a genocide.
