After that brutal and shocking massacre of Jewish participants at a
festival at SydneyAs Bondi Beach last month, some bright sparks in
charge of the Adelaide Festival WritersA Week decided that it would be >somehow insensitive to have a Palestinian, Dr Randa Abdel-Fattah
present. Because the very fact that she has been critical of IsraelAs >occupation of her country is tantamount to anti-Semitism, donAt you
know.
So they withdrew their invention to her to attend.
And what do you know, a whole bunch of other invitees see this, quite >rightly, as a total overreaction. And so, to express their solidarity
with this unfair singling out of a Palestinian author, they are
pulling out en masse from the festival. This includes ??As own former
Prime Minister, Jacinda Ardern. And a Jewish writer, Louise Adler, the >daughter of holocaust survivors, too.
