Why a 73 year old Jew had himself arrested
johnmenadue.com
After being arrested in Brisbane for wearing a T-shirt that read 'Jews for a free Palestine from the river to the sea', a 73-year-old Jewish protester writes that the law is suppressing dissent and targeting supporters of human rights.

It’s why I stood to be arrested on Friday, and why I wanted to write to you today; to encourage ongoing, collective resistance in this long tradition. This repression will continue unless we demonstrate massive and popular opposition… You need not get arrested, but we must fight back.

    Yeah reading his history of activism and standing up for human rights is inspiring.
