LETTER OF THE DAY

    Today's Australian.
    More questions raised about that Greens Senator
    CHRISTIAN Kerr highlights Senator Lee Rhiannon's communist past including her support for the Soviet Union at at time of "heightened persecution of Soviet Jews" ("Secret past of Greens senator", 28-29/1).

    The Soviet anti-Semitic campaign included allegations that Zionism was a tool of Western imperialism and Jewish capitalism, that Zionists had collaborated with the Nazis to perpetrate the Holocaust and that Zionism was a racist philosophy.

    Rhiannon's support for the Soviet regime during this period poses questions about the motivation behind her support for the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions campaign.
