Australia should be a multi-racial society with freedom of religion but not a multicultural society according to the Family First Party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lead Senate candidate for New South Wales, Lyle Shelton, said yesterday\u2019s appalling antisemitic threats to kill Jewish hospital patients by two Bankstown Muslim nurses underscored the failure of multi-culturalism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cJew hatred, which sadly is central to the culture in many Muslim countries and increasingly amongst un-Australian left-wing elites, has no place in Australia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMigrants who come to Australia and trash the trust that underpins our health system, or any other Australian institution for that matter, should go back to their country of origin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAustralia is a proud Western nation built on the Judeo-Christian ethic,\u201d Mr Shelton said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The antisemitism crisis since October 7, which peaked yesterday, is a wakeup call to all Australians to renew our commitment to the values which have made this nation such an attractive place for people from all over the globe coming to seek a better life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Labor\u2019s \u201cDoc\u201d Herbert Evatt, through his ground-breaking work at the UN, was instrumental in the creation of the state of Israel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Support for Israel was a pillar of the Hawke Labor government\u2019s foreign policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mr Shelton said the abandonment of support for Israel in its just war against Islamic terrorism by the Albanese government, our universities and large swathes of the media would have Doc Evatt and Bob Hawke rolling in their graves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAustralia\u2019s antisemitism crisis has festered and metastasised because the Israel-annihilationist \u2018River to the Sea\u2019 movement has been granted legitimacy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis must stop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe antisemitism crisis culminating in yesterday\u2019s outrage is symptomatic of the failure of multi-culturalism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAustralia has always made room for religious diversity and freedom and that should continue where non-Western religions are willing to adapt to overarching Western values.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIf Islam is a religion of peace, it should prove this to the Australian people by disciplining its numerous antisemitic preachers who have spouted hate and violence for Jews on our streets and in their mosques since October 7.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur university vice-chancellors should do the same with their antisemitic academics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Australian culture is pro-Israel, proudly pro-West and underpinned by the Judeo-Christian ethic of love of neighbour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe ANZAC values of courage, mateship, perseverance and sacrifice – which spring from the Judeo-Christian ethic – have stood our nation in good stead and now must be contended for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThese are the culture and values which define Australia, not what we saw at Bankstown hospital yesterday and since October 7,\u201d Mr Shelton said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
