How politicians are failing on anti-Semitism
ABC News Daily - A podcast by ABC

The firebomb attack on a childcare centre was the eighth anti-Semitic attack in Sydney in just three months. So, is enough being done to stop the crimes and are our political leaders making things better or worse? Today, social justice advocate Tim Costello on the unrest in our cities linked to the October 7 terrorist attack and the bloodshed in Gaza. He says there's an urgent need for political leaders to turn down the temperature. Mr. Costello shares his personal experiences and observations on the impact of these attacks on the Jewish and Muslim communities in Australia. He calls for justice for both sides and stresses the need for grassroots efforts to foster understanding and cooperation.
