No no, just a semi-serious prediction. It feels like we're waiting for the other shoe to drop on these laws.. they're repressive and it's a matter of time before an anti-Netanyahu journo is charged. Might take until the next govt for an admin who wants to wield the power that harshly though.

The new law includes very loose legal tests like just 'ridicule' or 'contempt' are now hate crimes when referring to the nation state of Israel or Zionism, under threat of jail time.

Even the Jewish Council of Australia said it is deeply concerned that the new laws are "an attempt to slander and intimidate hundreds of 1000s of Australians who have been protesting against Israel’s genocide and egregious human rights abuses".
