Morry Frenkel speaks with Dr John Coyne, Director of National Security Programs at the Australian Strategic Policy Institute (ASPI), about his recent op-ed, “PM’s Timid Reply to Antisemitic Terror Is Dangerous: Silence Is Surrender” published in The Age and the Sydney Morning Herald. John shares insights on the role of the ASPI and explains why he felt compelled to write the article. He discusses the government’s rhetoric, which often intertwines Islamophobia with various other forms of hate in addressing anti-Semitic incidents, arguing that this approach is politically weak and strategically harmful. Moreover, he articulates his belief that the rising antisemitism in Australia poses a threat to national security. John also outlines the positive and negative responses to his article.

Maurice Klein speaks with Hila Fenlon, a community leader from Moshav Netiv Ha'asara right next to the Gaza northern border with Israel meters away from the security wall. Hila is one of two guests for JNF The Green Sunday Appeal on 16th February, which this year is supporting Operation Fire Support a fabulous initiative with Australian volunteers bringing Australia's wildfire prevention suppression techniques to Israel training communities, a unique program that fosters collaboration between Australian firefighters and Israel's fire and forestry services. At age 20, Hila established her own agriculture farm that focused on research and development in the field of creating new vegetable seeds. Hila walks us through the past challenges of life on the border with Gaza and the heartbreaking Netiv Ha'asara October 7 Hamas government of Gaza pogrom, with the community losing 20 of its members. We hear how Netiv Ha'asara is recovering and reconstructing its community. The impact of the Operation Fire Support program and volunteering has proven to be invaluable and stands as a testament to the strong ties between Australia and Israel, as well as the power of shared expertise safeguarding lives and property in times of crises.
