Prime Minister Scott Morrison is contemplating shifting Australia's Israeli embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.


After the prime minister confirmed he's considering moving Australia's embassy in Israel, notable figures in the Arab community in Australia had a few things to say. This podcast explores some of their insight. We spoke with Ibrahim Qaadan from Sydney University's center of Peace and Conflict as well as Alaa Samara from the Fitya youth center in Sydney. 

In addition we spoke with Alex Ryvchin from the Executive Council of Australian Jewry.
