At a Jewish-owned bakery in Surry Hills, Sydney. Marking a Jewish business with the Hamas death triangle is a dangerous form of incitement to violence that invokes the darkest days in human history. For a year now there has been a permissive attitude towards boycotts of Jewish…

No doubt he has found that displaying racist placards and posing with a mock Hezbollah flag isn’t good for business and has shifted to damage control. Members of the community will reach their own conclusions as to the sincerity or otherwise of his statement but I certainly…

I met this morning with our Ambassador to Israel, Dr Ralph King and conveyed our community’s sense of betrayal at the government’s decision to not oppose a Palestinian resolution at the UN berating Israel, terminating the “land for peace” concept and releasing the Palestinians of…


ECAJ's Peter Wertheim criticised Australia’s UN abstention, saying it abandons "land for peace" and pressures Israel to surrender land without securing peace, risking more violence. Read our statement here: ecaj.org.au/abstention-mor… #unresolution #ecaj #israel

The word you never hear from “anti-war” protestors is “peace”. They use violence and the threat of violence to advance their agenda. Today in Melbourne they have attacked buskers, police and horses. They celebrate when Hamas commits acts of ultra-violence. They cheer when the…

The J7 Global Task Force urges @Meta to reject the Oversight Board's recent decision & to amend its hate policy to prohibit the phrase "from the river to the sea," which effectively calls for the expulsion of half of the world’s Jews. Read our letter here: adl.org/resources/lett…

On this day in '72, Palestinian militants took 11 Israeli team members hostage during the Munich Olympics, murdering them all. ECAJ called on the IOC to allow 1 min of silence at the 2012 Olympics to remember them, but they refused. Today, we honour them 💙 #israeliolympicteam

The Greens certainly know a thing or two about antisemitism but Senator Faruqi sitting on an inquiry into university antisemitism compromises the integrity of the commission and exposes victims of antisemitism to further harm. It could also deter victims from giving evidence. The…

ECAJ campaigned to make Holocaust education mandatory in schools. We will be spearheading the launch of antisemitism education programs in Aussie schools to ensure that teachers, parents & students are equipped to report antisemitism. Watch: ecaj.org.au/ecaj80/#highli…  #ECAJ80

The ECAJ advocates for the Australian Jewish community by urging legal reforms and political measures for their protection. It has sought prosecution for those inciting hatred and pursued legal action against hate preachers. Watch here: ecaj.org.au/ecaj80/#highli#ECAJ80

In response to Oct 7, the ECAJ has again been the voice of Australian Jews when needed. We have advocated for our rights, safety and freedoms throughout the country, reaching a national audience across every platform & network. ecaj.org.au/ecaj80/#highli#ECAJ80 @AlexRyvchin

In 2021, the ECAJ and other Jewish org's made extensive submissions to the Parliamentary Joint Committee on Intelligence and Security, advocating for Hezbollah and Hamas to be listed in their entirety as terrorist organisations. Watch here: ecaj.org.au/ecaj80/#highli#ECAJ80

The ECAJ is unique amongst Jewish org's to successfully file formal racial vilification complaints with the Australian Human Rights Commission, recognised by the courts. An e.g. is the case against Holocaust denier Fredrick Tobin. Watch here: ecaj.org.au/ecaj80/#highli#ecaj80

ECAJ advocated for racial vilification laws in Australia. Their submissions were crucial to the Australian Human Rights Commission's reports that recommended federal legislation against racial vilification and gross racist propaganda. Watch here: ecaj.org.au/ecaj80/#highli#ECAJ80
