Australia moves to ban pro-Palestinian slogan and symbols under law carrying up to 2 years in jail

In the wake of the shocking Bondi Beach terror attack, Queensland is set to propose a ban on a pro-Palestinian slogan under the new hate speech reforms announced by the state government. Premier David Crisafulli said on Sunday that the proposed reform will be introduced in state parliament on Tuesday following the attack that killed 15 during a Hanukkah celebration on December 14, 2025.
