Australian Nurses Suspended Over Hate Speech Antisemitic Video as Investigation Unfolds

Two Australian nurses have been suspended after a shocking video surfaced, appearing to show them making antisemitic threats against Israeli patients and boasting about refusing to treat them. The man and woman, both employed at a Sydney hospital, are now the subject of a police investigation, New South Wales (NSW) officials confirmed.  

 

NSW Health Minister Ryan Park assured the public that a "thorough investigation" would be conducted to ensure that no patients had suffered harm. He added that an initial "rapid" review of hospital records had not revealed any irregularities. The swift response to the incident underscores the gravity of the situation and the government’s commitment to addressing discrimination in the healthcare system.  

 

The video, which has been widely condemned, was shared on TikTok by Max Veifer, a content creator who identifies as Israeli. His account features interactions with people he meets on Chatruletka, an anonymous video-chat platform that randomly pairs users for conversations. The footage, reviewed by the BBC, appears to have been filmed inside a hospital.  

 

In the video, a man claiming to be a doctor initially compliments Mr. Veifer’s appearance, telling him, "You have beautiful eyes," before adding, "I'm sorry you're Israeli." He then makes a reference to sending Israelis to Jahannam, an Islamic concept comparable to hell. The video takes a darker turn when he gestures across his throat in a slitting motion. A woman later joins the conversation, telling Mr. Veifer that "one day" his "time will come" and that he will die. She also states that she refuses to treat Israeli patients, declaring, "I won't treat them, I will kill them."  

 

The Australian Prime Minister, Anthony Albanese, strongly condemned the footage, calling it "sickening and shameful." Writing on X (formerly Twitter), he stated: "These antisemitic comments, driven by hate, have no place in our health system and no place anywhere in Australia." He further emphasized that "individuals found to have committed criminal antisemitic acts will face the full force of our laws."  

 

On Wednesday, NSW Police confirmed they believed they had identified those involved in the video. The health minister stated that both individuals had been immediately suspended and assured the public that they would never work in the NSW healthcare system again.  

 

This incident has sparked widespread outrage and intensified concerns about antisemitism in Australia. As authorities continue their investigation, the case serves as a stark reminder of the responsibility healthcare professionals have to uphold ethical standards and provide care without discrimination.

Reality is the authorities now need to carefully assess the culture within Bankstown Hospital - in a strong Moslem area of Sydney where a few radical clerics have been allowed to preach their bile for many years.

Totally foreseen consequences from evil Murdoch media and totally ignored by the ABC for the obvious reasons - gormless hive of left wing activism.

I  trust the Australian authorities will do the correct thing and fire and deport these 2 individuals.  They are full of hate and disgusting.
