A few weeks ago, I posted about some Australian influencers/mommy bloggers, who had been posting the most disgraceful garbage that goes beyond “anti-Zionist” and crosses the line in to antisemitism, while also making a joke of their claims of being “feminists.”
One of them was someone by the name of Constance Hall, who posted this video:

As I mentioned at the time:
Note how besides comparing our hostages to dogs, she refers to us as “the chosen ones”, a blatantly antisemitic mockery of Jewish belief.
Following some pushback, Hall has deleted the video from her socials and uploaded this apology video:
While deleting the video and issuing an apology is a step in the right direction, I am not as impressed with this apology as – say – Hall’s fierce critic Gambotto Burke, who called it “beautiful.”
While Hall apologizes for her reference to the “chosen ones,” saying she understands how Jews could take offense, she makes out like she made it because the IDF uses this concept to rationalize taking over land. This is simply not the case.
Also, she does not apologize for comparing our hostages to dogs, nor has she mentioned the kidnapping, rape, and murder of Israelis – all while she continues to post unsubstantiated claims and outright libels against the Jewish state. At one point in the video she says we have no time to formally educate ourselves – an entirely irresponsible attitude, especially for someone with such a large following of people hanging off every word of hers.
As for her “admiration” for the Jewish people, it are those Jews who are opposing Israel who she truly admires. Those like me and the vast majority of Jews in the world who support Israel’s right to exist and defend her borders? I am guessing not so much.
