Our university leaders have failed us again. This time at QUT. Antisemitism has become normalised in Australia as Jews are singled out for ridicule and hate in a way we would not accept for any other minority group. What will it take for the Federal Education Minister to act?

No, Vice Chancellor! Public support for Hamas, a listed terror group, cannot be defended “under the banner of free speech & academic freedom.” The ANU VC’s parliamentary testimony is alarmingly reminiscent of the now ousted Harvard President’s infamous testimony to Congress.

Honoured to join Deborah & Alex as The Australian’s Australian of the Year. It’s not about us, it’s about the cause. Combatting antisemitism is about more than just the safety of the Jewish community, it’s about defending Australian values & freedoms. This is Australia’s fight.

Neale Daniher is a brilliant choice for Australian of the Year. His bravery is inspirational and his leadership in founding FightMND gives us the best chance of finding a cure for the disease. To Neale & Jan, a huge congratulations and thank you for what you do.

This year with antisemitism dangerously on the rise, International Holocaust Remembrance Day is more important than ever. The tragic events of our past must not become our future. Never Again. My oped in Herald Sun👇

In a must read piece, Professor Marcia Langton has powerfully exposed the shameful failure of our university leaders to stop antisemitism on their campuses. Their weakness has “exposed Jewish staff to clear danger and intimidation.” This is a wake up call to act now.

Last night I joined Fran Kelly on ABC Radio National to discuss the rise of antisemitism in Australia. It comes the same day a caravan was discovered laden with explosives with the apparent intention of targeting the Jewish community in a ‘mass casualty event.’abc.net.au/listen/program…

How has it come to this? We’ve been badly let down by our leaders who have lacked the moral clarity and courage to act. It was all predicable from day one. A stronger response is needed fast. This is Australia’s fight.

Melbourne. Sydney. Perth. More attacks in the last 24 hours. The epidemic of Jew Hate is a national crisis. With Federal Parliament resuming this week, the Government must act and stop this domestic terrorism. This is Australia’s fight and we all have a right to be safe.

In the face of rising antisemitism and hate, a group of Jewish and non-Jewish Australians have established The Dor Foundation to promote tolerance, understanding, and strengthen social cohesion. We must reclaim what we have lost. Link to our website➡️ Thedorfoundation.org.au

It was a privilege to speak at Sky News Australia Antisemitism Summit. It’s time to mobilise the majority & take back the stage from the loud minority who have grabbed the microphone to defend the indefensible & whip up the hate. This is Australia’s fight. Extract of my speech here⬇️

With antisemitism on the rise, our leaders first decided to ignore what was happening & hoped it would go away. Now they are starting to appreciate the depth of the problem. What matters most now is what we decide to do from here. My speech Sky News Australia⬇️ thedorfoundation.org.au/blog/skynews20…

BREAKING: Extraordinary statement by ASIO boss Mike Burgess highlighting how dangerous antisemitism has become in Australia. More action is needed & fast. “Right now in terms of my organisation and threats to way of life [&] threats to life, it’s my agency’s number 1 priority.”

Great to join this morning Kooyong’s Liberal candidate, Amelia Hamer, and a group of dedicated volunteers as the 2025 election campaign officially kicks off! Only Peter Dutton and the Liberal Party team can get Australia back on track.

When you firebomb a synagogue with people inside & attack a local restaurant because it’s owned by Jews, it’s NOT about Israel, it’s NOT about protest, it’s a hate crime. Violent antisemitism is a threat to us all & until it’s called out for what it really is, it will continue!
