Australian Jewish Association statement on Visa cancellation

Signature

AJA Statement - Cancellation of visa 

 
The Australian Jewish Association (AJA) is aware of reports that the Albanese Government has cancelled the visa of Hillel Fuld. Hillel is scheduled to speak at events in support of Magen David Adom, a vital organisation that provides ambulance and emergency services.
 
Notably, AJA previously assisted with a speaking tour by Hillel’s brother, Ari Fuld, a prominent advocate for Israel who was later murdered in an Islamic terrorist attack. The cancellation by the Albanese Government of the visa of Hillel Fuld represents more than just another act of hostility toward the Jewish community, it is deeply antisemitic. This follows the previous visa cancellation of former Israeli Justice Minister Ayelet Shaked, who was also due to speak to a Jewish organisation in Australia. 
 
While the Albanese Government has given away over $100 million in taxpayer funds to Gaza, the Jewish community does not seek government financial support for Israel. Instead, Australian Jews raise funds privately for humanitarian causes like Magen David Adom, which saves lives. Any effort to disrupt or sabotage such fundraising is not only petty — there appears to be a complete reckless disregard about whether it could cost lives. 
 
 In light of the fact that the Labor Government is targeting Jewish visitors by cancelling visas, AJA will issue a formal warning to Jews around the world to consider the risks of travelling to Australia under this government. There is a real concern that Jewish visitors may have their visas revoked after flights and accommodation are booked, a disturbing and discriminatory precedent.
