Sydney – A Sydney train driver use the loudspeaker system for anti-Israel political slogans.
This isn’t the first similar incident to occur. “from the river to the sea” is widely recognised as a coded call for the elimination of Israel (which has borders from the Mediterranean sea to the Jordan River.)
AJA Statement:
“Public transport should be for all passengers and not co-opted for political stunts. This particular chant is widely recognised as a genocidal call for the elimination of the State of Israel. This is not the first such incident on Sydney trains . It’s understandable if Jewish passengers don’t feel safe. It appears the NSW government’s response to previous incidents has not deterred them from occurring. We are calling for the dismissal of any NSW Government employee engaging in these actions.”
