Australian Jews’ warnings about rising antisemitism were ignored, U.S. lawmakers say

Netanyahu urged Western governments to act immediately after a deadly antisemitic attack killed 15 at a Sydney Hanukkah event, citing ignored warnings and rising global hatred.

  • U.S. lawmakers say warnings went unheeded, noting the Australian Jewish community and a global coalition of Jewish leaders had long alerted rising antisemitism before the Sunday attack.
  • U.S. lawmakers and Jewish leaders said Australian authorities ignored warnings that antisemitism was `a cancer` and predicted deadly consequences, echoed by Rep. Brad Schneider.
  • AJC leaders urged concrete steps, saying Ted Deutch, AJC CEO, called for prompt confirmation of Rabbi Yehuda Kaploun and increased security funding to prevent massacres like Bondi Beach.
  • Some leaders pointed to Canberra's policies, noting a months-ago letter to Anthony Albanese after recognizing Palestinian statehood, while Australian authorities said the attack appeared motivated by Islamic State ideology and groups described a global pattern targeting Jewish communities.
