Calls to consider jail time as anti-Semitism grows

Calls are being made to consider jail time as anti-Semitism grows in Australia. The harassment and intimidation of the Jewish community is being taken seriously, with demands for harsher measures such as mandatory jail sentences for those convicted of attacking synagogues. Australia's special envoy to combat anti-Semitism, Jillian Segal, has urged leaders to understand the seriousness of the situation. The federal government has already passed laws to ban hate symbols and is committed to improving the safety and security of Jewish sites. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has held talks with premiers and the Australian Federal Police Commissioner to address the issue.
