Alex Dafner:Yom Hashoah, Commemorations during Coronavirus, on-line Yiddish Report 19.4.2020

A witness collaborated the mainstream media’s report about the Police’s closure of a Passover prayers gathering run by a group of breakaway former Addass-Israel Orthodox men in Melbourne’s Ripponlea area, who despite previous warnings, did not adhere to the Corona Virus pandemic rules and continued to meet and whose leaders were in consequence issued with a $1652 fine. The Jewish Anti-Defamation Commission strongly condemned the planting of a Nazi Swastika flag, with two Chinese flags and a banner with the words "COVID-19", above the Telstra phone tower on Bradley Street in Kyabram, 212K north of Melbourne, an act that is understood to be racially motivated during the coronavirus pandemic and which led the Commission to again urge the Victorian Government to ban the public display of all Third Rich symbols. The ECAJ again appealed to Amazon and Australian Dymock’s book sellers to remove Hitler’s “Mein Kampf” and some 60 Nazi, racist and antisemitic titles from their online book store, stressing that the implementation of these ideologies have led to the killing of tens of millions of people between 1933 and 1945.
