Being arrested and deported back to your own country after illegally breaking a naval blockade on a sex cruise with flags during a war is not being “kidnapped”. Being kidnapped looks like getting dragged out of your home in your underwear at 6:30am at gunpoint and held in tunnels
I have also directed DFAT to call in Israel’s Ambassador to Australia to reinforce this message.
My wife Toby and I are in @Israel becoming citizens. At the Interior Ministry, the official reviewing our papers - a Jew who came from Ethiopia in 1991 - asked me for proof that I was Jewish. I showed him letters from our rabbi. As I did so, tears began to flow. I told him: “I remember the 1970s and ’80s, when we marched and protested so Ethiopian Jews could come home to Israel. Back then, many questioned whether Ethiopian Jews were Jewish at all. We insisted our Black brothers and sisters were as Jewish as any of us.” And now, 35 years later, here was a holy Ethiopian Jew confirming my Judaism. We had come full circle. Holding his hand, I sang: “Zeh hayom asah Hashem, nagilah ve’nismechah bo” - This is the day God has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it. Jews from East and West have returned home together. Am Yisrael chai v’yichyeh.

Zohran Mamdani just became the first NYC mayor in 61 years to skip the Israel Day Parade. Every mayor since 1964 showed up. Mamdani won’t stand with Jewish New Yorkers.
