A BOOKLET produced by Australian Labor Friends of Palestine accusing the “pro-Israel lobby” of sending politicians, party officials and journalists to Israel to get a “carefully orchestrated, one-sided perspective” on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict has been slammed as “disingenuous” by communal leaders.
The publication is billed as “An essential briefing for lucky politicians and journalists receiving an all-expenses paid trip to the Israel of Binyamin Netanyahu”.
It states, “The pro-Israel lobby is very powerful and is responding with one technique: it is spending millions of dollars on sending politicians, party officials and journalists to Israel to get a carefully orchestrated, one-sided perspective on the conflict between Israel and Palestine.
“They aim to soften the critical capacities of the participants.”
