One Nation senator Malcolm Roberts has rejected calls from Jewish leaders that he repudiate the work of an anti-Semitic author he has cited to support his claim that a “cabal” of international bankers is trying to create a socialist global government.
The B’nai B’rith Anti-Defamation Commission and the Australia/Israel And Jewish Affairs Council have demanded Senator Roberts dissociate himself from the writings of Eustace Mullins, an American anti-Semite who claimed that international banks and the US Federal Reserve were part of a Jewish conspiracy to introduce global socialism.
Senator Roberts has cited Mullins’s 1952 book The Secrets Of The Federal Reserve as a primary source for his claim that international banks are part of a “tight-knit secret group” using climate change to usher in a new world order. The senator wrote widely on the issue in his previous role as project director of the climate-sceptic group The Galileo Movement.
Senator Roberts said he saw no reason to repudiate Mullins’s book because it did not contain any anti-Semitic material.
