(Australian Jewish roof representative bodies, such as the ECAJ, NSWBOD, JCCV and AIJAC made submissions to the Parliamentary Committee reviewing the Racial Discrimination Act, all arguing for the current retention of the 18C and 18D sections of the Act, in light of their experience of anti-Semitic expressions of hate in Australia today. Almost all Rabbinical organizations in Australia have come out against the Victorian Governments plans to make assisted dying, in cases of terminally ill patients, legal in that State. Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull was guest speaker at the Jewish Cares 80th Jubilee celebration in Sydney on the 11th December and recalled the founding of the organisation, so central to Jewish and humanist ethics, following the appeal by the London body to the Jews of Australia to help the German Jews who were suffering under the racist Nuremberg laws passed by Hitler and the Nazi regime in 1935.  )

(Some 100 racist and anti-Semitic posters were plastered across Melbourne University last week, signed with a Neo-Nazi Antipodean website address and a swastika. The posters were quickly torn down or painted over and the incident was reported to the police. The university also reiterated their policies of respect, tolerance, inclusion and opposition to acts of hate and discrimination. Australian descendants of six persons who rescued Jews during the Holocaust, were introduced to descendants and members of Australian Jewish families of those they rescued, in a moving opening to a special exhibition at the Sydney Jewish Museum, prepared by the museum and the Yad Vashem Shoah Museum in Jerusalem, called I Am My Brothers Keeper, last week. An exhibition called Witnesses and Survivors, was opened at the Australian War Memorial in Canberra, curated by the memorial and the Melbourne Jewish Holocaust Centre and features the stories of Holocaust survivors, who settled in Australia after the war, as well as the sketches by Australias official WWII artist Allan Moore, who accompanied British troops during their liberation of the Bergen Belsen concentration camp in Germany. The highly decorated and experienced Australian Major-General Simon Stuart will take over the command of the Multinational Force and Observers (MFO) in the Sinai Desert, which has kept the peace between Israel and Egypt since the signing of the Camp David Peace Accords in 1978 and which now faces increasing challenges from the insurgents acting on behalf of the Islamic State and other extremist organizations in the region.  )
