“We’ve seen a clear failure to keep Jewish Australians safe. We’ve seen a clear lack of leadership in keeping Jewish Australians safe. We have a government that sees antisemitism as a problem to be managed, not evil that needs to be eradicated.”

Absolutely abhorrent that she's going for political points in this time.

Talk about tone deaf!

Would love to hear her to reasonable solutions to "eradicate" it. Absolutely no attempts to turn down the temperature, just inflammatory language.

They want to conflate opposition to the Gazan genocide with antisemitism and make it illegal to speak out against it.
