"B’nai B’rith Anti-Defamation Commission Chairman Dvir Abramovich said the Greens’ approach denied the Jewish people the right to self-determination."
The Australian Jewish News B’nai B’rith Anti-Defamation Commission Chair Dr Dvir Abramovich said, “It is hard to believe that a leader of a major political party in Australia would deny Israel’s right to exist as a Jewish state, a position which by extension denies the Jewish people the right to self-determination.

The ADC praises Pope Francis for stating that “anyone who does not recognise the Jewish people and the State of Israel—and their right to exist—is guilty of anti-Semitism.”
