2 Blaming this horrific act of violent antisemitism on peaceful protest against the actions of the Israeli government is dangerous and irresponsible.

3 Pushing divisive policies to censor universities, monitor media, and punish civil society, in the name of Jewish safety, will only make all of us less safe.

We are already seeing the consequences. In addition to what we have been experiencing since Sunday, Muslim, Palestinian and Arab communities are all reporting surges in abuse. This is what happens when leaders abandon solidarity and choose scapegoating instead.

There is another path.

Effective action against antisemitism is solidarity-based, rights-protecting and system-focused.

It reduces harm by strengthening democracy — not hollowing it out. That is why the Jewish Council of Australia is calling on the government to reject the Envoy’s divisive plan and act on measures that actually save lives and rebuild trust.

Suggested points to email your MP and the Prime Minister

Subject: Reject divisive response after Bondi — choose solidarity and safety

* I urge you to reject the Antisemitism Envoy’s plan, which relies on censorship, funding threats and the conflation of antisemitism with criticism of Israel. These measures are authoritarian, counterproductive and deepen social division.

* Conflating antisemitism with protest or dissent places Jewish, Muslim and Palestinian communities at greater risk and strengthens the far right. This approach undermines social cohesion rather than protecting it.

* If the government is serious about preventing violence, it must act where evidence shows lives are saved: urgently strengthen national firearms licensing and vetting standards, with real-time information sharing across jurisdictions.

* Antisemitism and racism are most effectively confronted through education, dialogue and solidarity across communities, not speech policing. Fund national, evidence-based anti-racism education programs instead of punitive controls.

* Australia needs responses that protect democratic freedoms, not expand censorship or surveillance. Safety comes from trust, inclusion and strong democratic institutions — not fear-based politics.
