News24 host Rowan Dean delivered a blunt assessment of the royal commission into antisemitism, questioning its effectiveness and future. “Speaking of the royal commission into antisemitism, it increasingly appears as if, as we repeatedly predicted on this show, it will end up being at best completely toothless and pointless and at worst seriously counter-productive," Mr Dean said/ “It is looking like being so thoroughly compromised that perhaps we should just put it out of its misery here and now. “In my opinion, there are only two words required to explain why Bondi happened … . Radical is one of them, Islam is the other. What this country actually needs is a royal commission into Islamic radicalisation within Australia and Australian institutions.”
