A member of the UN commission that accused Israel of genocide will defend its findings before a Melbourne Jewish audience next month, at an event organised by the activist group ABC Watch.

Chris Sidoti, one of three commissioners on the UN Independent International Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory, including East Jerusalem, and Israel, will debate military law expert Dr Brian L. Cox on Thursday, October 8 at 7.45pm.

Sidoti is a former Australian Human Rights Commissioner and a former commissioner of the Australian Law Reform Commission.

About 400 people are expected at the venue, which will not be announced in advance for security reasons.

“So far as I’m concerned, it’s not a debate,” Sidoti told The AJN.
