Australia, in which Jews were overwhelmingly welcomed, appreciated and embraced, died a year ago, on October 7, 2023 – the day when the murderous act of a terrorist group against Israeli Jews on the other side of the world also exposed an underestimated underbelly of anti-Semitism. The fallout from the massacre of more than 1200 Israelis on October 7 and Israel’s subsequent war on Hamas in Gaza which has left more than 40,000 dead, has not just changed Australia, it has convulsed it. Not since the Vietnam war, more than half a century ago, has a foreign conflict so divided the nation. As The Australian's Chief International Correspondent Cameron Stewart revisits the night that changed the nation, the greatest tragedy for Australia is not the rights or wrongs of this political debate, but that so many critics of Israel veered so quickly into naked anti-Semitism.
