As the conflict in the Middle East escalates, Christian leaders are condemning increasing anti-Semitism as well as other aspects of the war.

The Archbishop of Sydney, Kanishka Raffel, wrote: ‘In recent days we have witnessed repugnant expressions of anti-Semitism in Sydney which have appalled most Australians and heightened fears among the Jewish community.

‘The conduct of some individuals in our city including flag burnings and aggressive verbal incitements to violence against Jewish people have shocked and repulsed our city. It deserves the strongest condemnation and must not be tolerated.
