Former Labor MP Michael Danby has welcomed the Australian Government’s decision to expel Iran’s ambassador, following alleged links between Tehran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps and recent attacks on Jewish institutions in Sydney and Melbourne. Danby praised ASIO and the AFP for their investigation, noting the use of local criminals to carry out anti-Semitic violence. He warned that Australia’s relations with Iran are unlikely to normalise until major political change occurs within the country.
