Holocaust Survivor Warns of Rising Antisemitism in Australia Ahead of Royal Commission Report

A Holocaust survivor from South Australia, Andrew Steiner, is sounding the alarm on a surge of antisemitism in Australia, just before the royal commissions interim report is due in April. The commission, established by Prime Minister Anthony Albanese following the Bondi terror attack last December, will release its full findings in December, marking the attacks first anniversary. Steiner, who experienced the horrors of the Holocaust, believes Australia has shifted from a caring, egalitarian society to one fueled by lies and online manipulation, particularly targeting Jewish people despite their long history in the country. He advocates for more education, interfaith collaboration, and plans to submit a report alongside his museum and community council, emphasizing equal protection for all without special treatment. Meanwhile, hearings are set to begin in Sydney from May fourth to fifteenth, exploring the roots of antisemitism, personal stories, and strategies to combat it, with the goal of promoting social cohesion for everyone.
