In an official complaint statement released by the Israel Law Center and Solicitor Andrew Hamilton, Associate Professor Jake Lynch at the University of Sydney is said to be guilty of unlawful activities under the racial Discrimination Act 1975 which states that:

It is unlawful for a person to do any act involving a distinction, exclusion, restriction or preference based on race, colour, descent or national or ethnic origin which has the purpose or effect of nullifying or impairing the recognition, enjoyment or exercise, on an equal footing, of any human right or fundamental freedom in the political, economic, social, cultural or any other field of public life.

The statement alleged that Mr Lynch had openly participated in public supporting "global movements for boycotts, divestment and sanctions against Israel and Israeli-related business, academic and cultural persons and organisations (BDS movement or BDSM).

The statement particularly pointed out that Mr Lynch "support racist anti-semitic BDSM activity at Sydney University" resulting to the university's student body endorsing his academic boycott of Israel.

"The BDSM engages in racist hate speech."

"The BDSM is hypocritical and does not assist the Palestinian causes," according to the statement.

"The targeting of people or organisations for harm simply because they are Jewish is the classic definition of anti-semitism."

Also, the statement said that Mr Lynch "publicly announced his refusal to work with Dan Avnon, an Israeli professor from the prestigious Hebrew University in Jerusalem, which promotes Israeli-Arab coexistence."

Mr Lynch, according to the statement, had also called for a boycott of the Technion University in Haifa.

The complainants against Mr Lynch are as follows:

A) All Israel linked businesses with activity in Australia which have been or maybe targeted by BDSM organised or inspired protests and boycott activity.

B) All Australian citizens based in Israel who suffer from the activities of the BDSM in relation to cultural boycotts of Israel (attempts to prevent overseas cultural groups visiting Israel);

C) Israeli academics visiting or seeking to visit Australia who have been targeted by BDSM protests and boycotts;

D) Members of the Australian Jewish Community who have been subject to the racist activity of the BDSM including at Australian Universities and in their dealings with the Israel linked businesses referred to in paragraph a).
