Petition: We will not be divided after Bondi. Add your name: jewishcouncil.good.do/unity/jewish...

Media release: Unity must guide the Government's response to Bondi attack, not divisive pro-Israel wishlist Full release available at the link in our bio.

Since the horrific events of the first night of Chanukah, we have been moved by the support that has come from across Australia for the Jewish community. For those wanting to show their support, we invite you to join us and @GetUp and take a photo of a candle by your window.

We are horrified and shaken in the wake of the mass shooting at a Chanukah event in Bondi this evening, which has left at least ten people dead and injured many more. This is the first night of Chanukah when we gather with loved ones and friends to light the Chanukiah. 1/4

"We know there are congregations and Rabbis who are moving towards speaking out and it's really important for us to work with these institutions to make more space. But what we're thinking about at the Jewish Council is how do we build our own institutions." youtu.be/CH2i5dgMYt4?...

Thanks to all who came to hear us last night for the important conversation: Should antisemitism be exceptionalised or should we combat all forms of racism together? As we head into Yom Kippur, we're recommitting to fighting all forms of racism.
