Shane Desiatnik: "Jewish community leaders raise concern about new Polish Shoah laws" 18.3.2018

For the latest in the Australian Jewish community, listen to our chat with Shane Desiatnik from the AJN...The Executive Council of Australian Jewry commissioned a poll on Australians views on the recognition of a Palestinian State, which showed only low support for such a move without a prior peace agreement with Israel, but a much stronger support for Australias recognition of Jerusalem as Israels capital. The prominent Israeli Rabbi Itzhak Grossman who pleaded for Malka Leifer the former principal of the Addass Israel School in Melbourne, who is facing 74 charges of sexual abuse and assault against former students at the school, and who has so far avoided extradition on grounds of alleged mental illness, to be placed under house arrest, had completely withdrawn his plea following protests in Australia and Israel.
