Imagine surviving the holocaust and getting murdered 80 years later for being Jewish in Australia. Actually, you don’t have to imagine. It happened today.

When Jews pray at a synagogue, their place of worship can be set on fire. When Jews eat at a kosher restaurant, its windows can be smashed. When Jews study at a Jewish school, they receive bomb threats. When Jews visit a Jewish museum, they can be shot in the street. When Jews stay home, they can be poisoned by a nanny. When Jews gather peacefully to demand the return of hostages, they can be burned alive with firebombs. And when Jews attend a Chanukah party on the beach, they can be hunted down and murdered like animals. This is not a life. World leaders have allowed this to become our reality. Now they must act. We refuse to live like this.

To say the actions of two NSW Health workers are disturbing, frightening and lacking in humanity would be an understatement. In fact, any words are an understatement. For any healthcare worker to have so much racist hate in their hearts for another member of a different cultural community as to threaten to kill them if they were patients, and claim to already have done so, is catastrophic for our nation. These individuals can never be near a patient again. The investigation by police must be full and wide ranging. The penalties must be commensurate with the investigation outcomes to even begin to restore trust. We must come together, those of us working in Australian healthcare, and stare down this hate. Never again.

‘Saying my grandparents were colonialists? They were refugees who escaped Yemen for God’s sake’ @BDYemini, a senior columnist at Yedioth Ahronoth, says “the world has gone crazy” in supporting Hamas, a terror group that wants to kill Christians and Jews | with @benitalevin

The violence in Caulfield, against jewish people, is unacceptable. Hard to believe that in Australia jewish people were unable to welcome the Shabbat. Hard to believe they were advised not to attend services in the local synagogues.

Of all the places in Melbourne to hold a pro-Palestinian rally, they chose Caulfield. In a park next to a synagogue. This is a calculated attempt to intimidate the Jewish community with predictable consequences.
