If imitation is the greatest form of flattery, Friends of Palestine (WA 鈥 FOPWA) must be doing something right: Friends of Israel (WA) was launched on August 8. The group鈥檚 website is a mix of nationalism and barely concealed racism. 鈥淚srael is in the front lines of the global battle between those who love life and those who glorify death鈥, it says. The launch took place at the Victory Life Centre, a fundamentalist Christian church, in Osborne Park, Perth.
