As many as 40 former and current IDF soldiers and associates are coming to Australia to compete in the Sydney Marathon on August 30, a trip sponsored by AIJAC and the Zionist Council of NSW.
The series of events is likely to be controversial. Australian Chris Sidoti, UN Human Rights Investigator, has called for Israeli military personnel who have served in Gaza to be interrogated for war crimes.
The events are showcased on the Zionist Council of NSW Facebook page and are being billed as a “peace delegation”.
