Australian Muslim groups condemn those who are upset at healthcare workers who threaten patients for political reasons

Last week I noted that Australian Muslim groups were silent as the larger Australian community expressed outrage at the video of Muslim healthcare workers claiming to kill Israelis and promising to kill more.

Now we know why. They were outraged at the reaction, not the video itself. The nurses who were laughing at the idea of killing patients were "clearly emotional." They may have technically breached some ethical standards, but look how "Zionist lobby groups" orchestrated a huge reaction! That's the real crime here!

Here is the entire statement from a group of fifty (!) Australian Muslim organizations, so no one can accuse me of taking anything out of context. (Emphasis mine.)

On Wednesday, 12 February 2025, Israeli content creator Max Veifer posted an edited snippet of a video conversation with two nurses from Bankstown Hospital.

This incident has since sparked “outrage,” largely amplified by a coordinated media campaign and inflammatory commentary across shock-jock platforms. It has since emerged that Veifer is a recently serving member of the IOF and was thus involved in the genocide of the people of Gaza.

As representatives of the Muslim Community in Australia, we affirm that all forms of discrimination based on race and religion are unacceptable and that healthcare should be provided justly to all. However, this statement addresses the selective outrage and political motivations surrounding the recent controversy involving two nurses from Bankstown Hospital.

We emphasise the following key points.

1. Selective Outrage and Political Convenience
The most revealing aspect of the reaction to the nurses' video is not the video itself—but the speed, intensity, and uniformity of response from certain political leaders and media outlets.

The Prime Minister weighed in. The NSW Health Minister declared it the most “vile” thing he had ever seen. Journalists and commentators mobilised to express their collective “horror.” Yet these same voices have provided active diplomatic and journalistic cover for ongoing crimes by the Zionists—as blatantly demonstrated this week with The Daily Telegraph's shocking attempt to fabricate an "anti-Semitic incident" at a local café.

This is more than hypocrisy. It is calculated, politically motivated outrage. It is not a failure of consistency; it is the deliberate engineering of public morality.

Outrage is manufactured when it serves a political narrative, with silence strategically deployed when the truth might expose the complicity of those in power.

2. The Weaponisation of “Anti-Semitism”
The labeling of this video as "anti-Semitic" follows a well-documented pattern of gaslighting by Zionist lobby groups and their friends within government and media circles.

We are unequivocal: Israel is committing genocide against the Palestinian people. The frustration and anger directed at Israel is a direct response to its violent and inhumane policies—not an expression of hatred toward Jewish people.

Attempts to weaponise accusations of anti-Semitism to silence dissent are not only intellectually dishonest but also dangerous.

3. The Sanctity of Healthcare
We recognise the importance of professionalism and ethical responsibility within healthcare and that the nurses' actions breached the codes of conduct for health professionals. The statements made by the nurses regarding "killing Israelis" were clearly emotional and hyperbolic, as supported by subsequent investigations.

Healthcare professionals are bound by their duty to treat and care for all individuals. This principle is most powerfully exemplified by healthcare workers in Gaza who, even as their hospitals are bombed and their colleagues targeted and killed, continue to provide life-saving care to all who need it.

We urge the Australian public to see through this manufactured moral panic and recognise the deeply political nature of this response.

We call on our leaders and media institutions to apply their professed moral standards consistently—not only when it is politically convenient but when doing so requires confronting uncomfortable truths.

Selective outrage? As far as I can tell, not one of these organizations condemned Hamas' pogrom on October 7 but within days they called Israel's response "genocide."

Weaponization of antisemitism? Perhaps the Muslim community is unaware of how the huge increase of attacks on Jews and attacks on Israel in Australia have been done by the same people, like this synagogue graffiti last month that says "Hitler on top," "Allah hu Akbar" and "Free Palestine" with a swastika.

Sometimes the attackers enjoy making the connection themselves.

The sanctity of healthcare? You mean like the doctors and nurses who openly support a murderous terror group? Are they talking about the number of Jewish medical professionals worldwide who are reporting being intimidated on the job skyrocketing since October 7? Perhaps the doctors who attempted to explode car bombs in the UK in 2007?

This press release is a rehash of a well-known method of terror apologists, an attempts to change the subject and claim that "The real problem is..." whatever they want to misdirect people to.

They are saying that the problem isn't that everyone has to worry that their "pro-Palestine" Muslim healthcare workers might physically harm patients whose political views disagree with their own. They say the problem is publicizing that inconvenient fact.

It's an argument that only an antisemite could love.
