00:00Double standards, that's how Senator Fatima Payman has labelled the treatment of two Bankstown nurses film bragging about refusing to treat

00:08Israeli patients. This says police continue to investigate any possible charges over the vile video

00:15almost a week after it went viral.

00:19They've apologised, they have been punished. What is the end goal here?

00:24Senator Fatima Payman fired up over the backlash two Bankstown nurses have received

00:29since a video went viral of them bragging about letting Jewish patients die.

00:34They made a terrible comment yet are being treated as if they have committed the absolute worst crime imaginable.

00:41Comparing the public condemnation of the nurses to an alleged failed stunt at a Newtown cafe last week

00:48involving the Daily Telegraph and a prominent Jewish figure.

00:51How can we allow a major media organisation to get off scot-free?

00:55The senator's outrage echoed in a joint statement from prominent community bodies saying the controversy

01:01isn't about what was said in the video of the nurses, but instead the speed, intensity and

01:07uniformity of response from the government and the media

01:11describing the weaponisation of the word

01:13anti-semitism in coverage of the incident.

01:17As strike force detectives assembled to investigate anti-semitic attacks work to determine if any charges will be laid against

01:24Ahmad, Rashad, Nadir and Sarah Abu-Lebdeb.

01:27This task force designed to confront head-on what we regard as

01:31naked racism, anti-semitism in our community, but they've got to get on with the job.

01:36Today, Ahmad's lawyer apologised once again on behalf of his client.

01:40By no means does my client protect what he has done.

01:44By no means does he hide from it.

01:47Detectives are still yet to formally interview both nurses.

01:50Ahmad's lawyer has told 9 News he is planning to attend Bankstown Police Station when he is mentally fit to do so.

01:58He is more than happy to cooperate with police.

02:01At Bankstown, Erin Ramsey, 9 News.
