While the head of the Israeli genocidal state was being welcomed by our political leaders, Sydney witnessed one of the most savage attacks on the democratic right to rally and march in years.

The NSW police, egged on by Chris Minns, tried to bludgeon the Palestine movement off the streets on Monday night. When thousands defied Chris Minns' ban on marching, the police resorted to capsicum spray, and horrifying violence. One 69 year old woman was hospitalised with 4 fractured vertebrae.

Albanese and Minns have revealed just how complicit they are with Israel's genocide.

Isaac Herzog will leave Australia but the genocide continues. Minns wants to ban "globalise the intifada" because it is a call for international solidarity and struggle for Palestine.

It is a call to end Australia's complicity, to end the export of the F35 parts, and the armoured steel to Israel.

On Monday night the movement showed the defiance needed to beat Minn's anti-protest laws, and build a stronger movement to Free Palestine
