A coordinated, concerted and sustained effort is needed if Australia is to succeed in the fight against antisemitism, which has moved from the ugly fringe to the public square, writes former Treasurer of Australia Josh Frydenberg.

I wanted to use my voice to ring the alarm bell and inform my fellow Australians about what is happening and how bad it really is.

Rather, Hamas is a death cult, with a deep-seated hatred for Israel and Jews that fueled this ISIS-like attack. SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA - OCTOBER 09: A Palestine supporter holds a burnt Israeli flag into the air outside the Sydney Opera House. It is a pattern of conduct playing out right across the country, from our large capital cities to our small country towns.

Award-winning musician Deborah Conway speaks emotionally in the documentary about the attacks she and her husband Willie have faced following October 7, including attempts to have her cancelled from performing. Equally heartbreaking is to hear from the daughter of Holocaust survivor Paul Drexler talk about how her 10-year-old child asked her ‘why is it bad to be identified as Jewish?’ after their local school asked, as a safety precaution, that the students not wear their uniform outside the school grounds for fear of being identified as Jewish.It is abundantly clear that since October 7 there has been a failure of leadership across our government, our institutions, our society, to stop antisemitism.

Education is also key. A theme to come through the documentary is the disinformation and misinformation being circulated about Israel and the conflict, with many younger people increasingly relying on social media as their principal source of news.
