The third hearing block of the Royal Commission on Antisemitism and Social Cohesion will focus on the spread of #hatespeech #online and in traditional media sources."

"The #antiSemitism report talks about a permanent burden for the #Jewish community in #Switzerland. How does this manifest itself in everyday life?

We have noticed that #Jews are increasingly withdrawing from public life. This became clear after the #terrorist attack last December on a Festival of Lights celebration in #Sydney, #Australia, in which the perpetrators attacked an event on #BondiBeach and shot 16 people dead. On the same day, a festival of lights was held by a Jewish community in #Zurich - half of the registered guests stayed away from the event."

"#Antisemitism in #Australia was left unchecked and became normalized after the outbreak of the war against #Hamas in #Gaza in October 2023, fueling violence against #Jewish people, the country’s #nationalsecurity and #intelligence chief said on ‌Monday.

The frank remarks were made during a #publicinquiry into last December’s #BondiBeach #massshooting in #Sydney, the worst #terrorist attack in Australian history.

“There is no doubt that the war in the #MiddleEast invoked a range of emotions in Australia,” said #MikeBurgess, director-general of the #AustralianSecurityIntelligenceOrganization. “Some of those violent aspects ... and those behaviors, including antisemitism that, in our view, were left unchecked, were therefore normalized and gave more permission for violence ..., and Jewish #Australians were on the receiving end.”
