Queensland Jews were stunned when the Woodford Folk Festival late December 2023 turned into a hate fest of anti-Israel sentiment and Jew hatred. With may incidents since then, late May this year it was serious neo-Nazi graffiti on the Gold Coast, followed a few days later with 100 plus members of the Jewish community celebrating the Shavuot festival holiday at a private function, only to be gate crashed, abused threatened and intimidated by a protest bunch of left-wing and Islamic Jew haters. We hear from Jason how the nascent state of the art Queensland Holocaust Museum and Education Centre, capped off its first year winning gold and silver recognition at two prestigious international awards, and how the Holocaust museum is having a real impact educating Queenslanders young and old about the Holocaust, with the aim of educating and inspiring Queenslanders to stand up against all forms of racism and hatred.

This lack of effective action has led to some faculty members leaving the university and has potential students questioning whether attending the University of Sydney is their best option for continuing their studies. Les also condemned the involvement of some faculty members in newsletters that contained virulently anti-Zionist material and called for a single Palestinian state, although the university has now clamped down on this activity.

The Lions of Zion carrying Israeli flags and more, have been organising counter rallies and attending the pro-Palestinian Jew hating rallies that have been plaguing the Melbourne CBD most weekends since October 7. With inappropriate move-on laws and so-called breach of the peace laws, the Victoria police have not given The Lions of Zion a smooth pathway to exercise their rights to also protest and show their support for Israel and the Jewish community. The Lions of Zion have marshalled continued growing support from a broad cross section of the community, both Jewish and non-Jewish inspiring stronger unity, courage and pride within our community, and will continue to rise and face the enemies of the Jewish community, no matter who they are or how many they are, the same way our people have for thousands of years.

Title: Peter Lavac – I hate injustice and will not put up with it (*from 8:53 mins) Description: Morry Frenkel speaks with high-profile Sydney barrister, Peter Lavac, an outspoken supporter of Israel and the Australian Jewish community. Peter talks about the factors in his childhood that set the foundations for him pursuing justice through the Law as an adult. He believes Australia has a serious problem, not only with the protesting ‘thugs’, who are blatantly antisemitic, but these extremists also hate our country and its citizens. Peter is critical of the Federal Government’s lack of effective action and the unwillingness of police to enforce the law. Peter describes what he hopes to do when he visits Israel in the near future and how he will use the information he gathers to educate the broader Australian community on the war in Gaza and Israel’s response to the horrors of October 7th, 2023. Peter, who is not Jewish, has offered to provide advice to or represent anyone pro bono, if they have been impacted by antisemitic acts. His podcast, The Lambo Lawyer, is highly recommended and can be accessed by searching the internet with the title.

Rachel and Evyatar Edri – Cookies for terrorists is a recipe for survival (if someone is hungry they are going to get angry) (*from 41:13 mins) Description: Maurice Klein speaks with Rachel Edri and her son police officer Evyatar Edri, who with IDF Special Forces miraculously rescued his parents Rachel and David when they were taken captive by Hamas terrorists on October 7 in their Ofakim home. We hear how Rachel was able to placate the monster terrorists in her home by engaging with and feeding them, cleverly buying time and all the while relaying information to her son and the IDF Special Forces who were then able to execute the 20 hour rescue of Rachel and David Edri. Ofakim, 30 kilometers east of Gaza was the furthest point where the Hamas terrorists were able to carry out their barbaric evil, with 53 residents and police officers killed on October 7. The Edri family story is one of amazing resilience, survival, hope and the power of family.
