One month has passed since the terror attack in Bondi during Hanukkah celebrations, an event in which 15 people were shot while gathering on the beach to celebrate Chanukah, including 10 year old Matilda and holocaust survivor Alexander Kleytman. It has been the worst terror attack on Australian soil and shocked communities across Australia. As the Jewish community and the country mark the one month anniversary since the attack, reflections have focused on mourning, continuity and concern about the future. Jewish leaders and commentators describe a community still grieving while also grappling with questions about safety, antisemitism and whether Australia’s multicultural fabric can withstand rising tensions.

Nomi Kaltmann, a prominent voice within Australia’s Jewish community, has spoken out forcefully against what she views as the federal and state governments’ insufficient response to rising antisemitism across the country. She argues that up until the attacks in Bondi, existing laws and policies failed to adequately deter hate speech and targeted harassment, and that the government did not take strong enough leadership to minimise the threat, despite ongoing pleas from the Jewish community.

SBS Hebrew speaks to two rabbis. Rabbi Avi Weiss is an American Open Orthodox ordained rabbi, author, teacher, lecturer and activist who led the Hebrew Institute of Riverdale in The Bronx, New York until 2015. The moment he heard about the terror attacks in Bondi, he boarded a plane to Australia straight away. Rabbi Avi was also one of the first interfaith representatives at the site when the Twin Towers fell, he was in Paris in the wake of a kosher supermarket shooting and in Buenos Aires after the bombings at the Israeli embassy. He is joined by his student and ordained rabbi Rabbi Mike Nasielski. In and amongst the sorrow, together they deliver powerful words for the Jewish community.

In the wake of the Bondi Beach terror attack over the weekend, the Albanese government is fast-tracking a suite of legislative reforms aimed at cracking down on hate speech and tightening migration laws to avert individuals with extremist views. While the government faces pressure to introduce harsher border policies, it has rejected calls for a Royal Commission, arguing that immediate executive action and enforcement are more urgent than a lengthy public inquiry.
