Why
Join with other members of the Benalla regional community to oppose the visit by Israeli President Isaac Herzog and to support human rights and justice for the Palestinian people.
A short speech will be made outlining the situation, followed by a group photo.
Please bring flags or placards with our key messages below.
President Herzog has been the head of the Israeli state throughout the military assault on Gaza that has resulted in tens of thousands of civilian deaths.
In October 2023 Herzog stated that "It is an entire nation out there that is responsible" - endorsing the collective punishment of the entire civilian population of Gaza for the actions of Hamas on October 7.
The UN Independent International Commission of Inquiry concluded in 2025 that President Herzog had incited the act of genocide. His words were also referenced by the International Court of Justice in its January 2024 provisional ruling, highlighting that Herzog's words had contributed to a pattern of rhetoric indicative of genocidal intent.
Inviting Herzog to Australia does nothing to promote the social understanding that we need to build after the horrific antisemitic massacre at Bondi.
Join this peaceful community gathering to support the following:
- Oppose Israeli President Herzog's visit
- No to anti-semitism and racism
- Support human rights and justice for Palestine
- End the genocide and military occupation
