The Queensland government is targeting your right to speak up for Palestine.
The issue is war crimes, not thought crimes.
Pro-Israel politicians and lobbyists just helped shape a Queensland law - not to keep you safe, but to silence Palestinian voices and protect itself from criticism.
It bans slogans. Words. Used by ordinary people, to express a view about a foreign conflict and freedom. Not a single Palestinian was consulted before these laws were introduced.
And it's just the beginning.
Australia has committed troops to support a country that is committing genocide and starting illegal wars. Our government has been providing diplomatic cover for years. Australian-made components end up in weapons dropped on civilians. Now Australians military are being sent.
We've seen this before. We know how it ends.
The jump from these laws to your life is shorter than you think.
When our government passes laws to protect a foreign state from criticism - a state The UN says is committing genocide - it isn't just something far away, it's an attack on all of us, right here.
Yesterday it was police violence. Today its words. Tomorrow it's a knock on your door.
We won’t be intimidated into silence.
The issue is war crimes, not thought crimes.
Tell Premier Crisafulli that Australian rights aren't for sale. Two minutes. Please do it now
