Chris Minns and the Sydney Harbour ‘Gaza Streisand effect’

New South Wales State Premier Chris Minns Is he secretly a strong supporter for the inhabitants of Gaza, where the war diaped?

This is a radical idea, considering that Minns is faced with censorship from his own meeting after trying to stop and stop. Crazy Successful Sydney Harbor Bridge Walking for Palestine on Saturday.

And especially after doing everything possible to suppress Israel’s public criticisms about the persecution of the inhabitants of the occupied regions.

Considering his comments this week, when the Gaza Strip sympathized with the horror given to the inhabitants of the captured inhabitants, could he really use the opposite psychology to provide support for their situation? What independent AUtralia defines a kind of “Gaza Streisand effect ((more in a short time).

Or is it that deputies of the Labor Party are “terrified”? said Protector It happened this week ‘… News Corp Media and Talkback Radio more adapt to their party’ And now is he trying to go back carefully?

Regardless of its intention, the justice support in Palestine in NSW does not seem to be prevented by Minns’ actions, whatever it is. The opposite.

Chris Minns and his “soft left” right

The difficulty of understanding what NSW Premier Chris Minns is is that it is a bunch of contradiction.

Since the Labor Party returned to the government in 2023, Minns has adopted equally conservative positions in a series of matches.

For example, he called for less union influences in the Labor Party and tried to stop wage increases over three percent. Low -paid health workersAnd brought punishing Bail Laws For young criminals.

Not only between the left fraction, it caused internal tensions in its party.

RIGHT FRADE MP reported It’s like saying this week:

“They didn’t go to progressive problems. We – right – and some soft left that raised it, and now the base is really unhappy.”

However, Minns’s heavy stuck against protests to support the controversial anti -Semitism legislation and Palestine is the most national interest.

In February of this year, the Minns government described the police found a loaded caravan. Explosives terrorist land And a few graffiti attacks on the synagogues “As actions of racial hatred and anti -Semitism”Using the incident to hurry from a team Draconian lawsInterest hate -speaking laws and giving the police the power to prevent protests close to synagogues.

Police found it in March Caravan and other 14 antisemitic events In front of Sydney, there was a “conical work ği conducted by an organized crime that was not directed by anti -Semitism.

This led to condemnation Human Rights Lawyerstheir own deputies, a legal challenge and an ongoing call for investigation, Minns National fame He hadn’t seen it since he was Premier.

Until this month, when he tried to stop his gazan activists from walking across the Sydney Harbor Bridge.

Minns and Streisand Effect

Minns became an apparent supporter of Israel for a period of time. At least since 2003, When A political delegation participated in the sacred lands financed by the Opening Graduate of the Ramban Israeli Scholarship Program and the strong lobby group. AIPAC. Of course, this is far from unusual; Many politicians from all sides have accepted the magnitude of Israel and its supporters.

IA “The appearance,” he says, because the last Premier launched the ongoing tragedy in the old Palestine into the spotlight in a way that publishers could not imagine. As a result, Minns was smart enough to return from the wild nature, albeit in the minority government, after running NSW for a better part of the coalition. Undoubtedly, he must be aware of the “Streisand effect ..

. Streisand effect After trying to print a photo of the Malibu house in 2003, the entertainer Barbara Streisand is a digital age term. At that time, the painting was downloaded six times by his lawyers twice. The consciousness of the people showed that the photo was viewed 420,000 times the following month.

Chris Minns, the International Court of Justice and others trying to ban protests on the subject, can try to draw attention that they define it as “genocide ??

Because if the Minns government and the police did not try to stop it, fewer people would hear the march on the Harbor Bridge. So IA It was called “Gaza Streisand Effect ..

Following the Supreme Court’s decision to allow the protest in the media storm, Estimated 90,000 to 300,000 People challenged the painful air, the armed rebellion police allowed them to direct them and even go to Skywring, passing through the bridge. Perhaps the biggest protest seen at the famous turning point and almost absolutely most peaceful.

Justice as Belinda Rigg said In his judgment:

“The walk in this place is motivated by the belief that the horror and urgency of the situation in Gaza require an emergency and extraordinary reaction from the people of the world.”

Sometimes the system works.

The only way that the protest was larger could have decided to ban the judge. Did Chris Minns know that? Is he a cupboard human?

After all, after leaving the last sodden protester, He said What Israel does in Gaza “Great concern ”. Although he refused to ban then Similar walks in the future.

Unfortunately, it can be more contact with Sky News and 2GB viewers than the vast majority of Australians who support justice and peace. And those who are not the slightest antisemitics.
