The right-leaning Australian Jewish Association (AJA) said Sammy Yahood’s visa was cancelled three hours before his flight was due to depart.

The AJA has criticised the cancellation of Yahood’s visa, and said he was scheduled to speak to the AJA in major synagogues and to other organisations across Australia.

“Sammy is the latest Jew to have his visa cancelled by this government. As in other cases, they wait until the last minute,” the organisation wrote on X.

“Parliament just voted to increase the powers of Toby [sic] Burke to cancel visas as an apparent response to support the Jewish community following the Bondi massacre.”

    The AJA described one event, due to be held in Melbourne, as “a unique introductory session to self defence. Working through physical exercises to learn essential techniques and principles for personal safety. Let’s take accountability for our security together.”

    Imagine if ISIS flew into Australia do give “self defence training” in Mosques and encouraged everyone to join them in colonizing Kurdistan
