Labor Friends of Israel (Dr Mike Kelly), Israel's Economy (Prof Michael Ben-Gad)

Labor Friends of Israel, Israel's Economy

Talking about the plight of the Jews in France is Dr. Dov Maimon, a Senior Fellow at the Jewish People Policy Institute (JPPI), leading the "Grand Strategy toward Islam" project, the "Israel-Diaspora New Paradigm" project and the Institute's activities in Europe. He is also the author of the action plan for bringing the developing mass migration of French Jews to Israel. 

Born in Paris, he earned a Ph.D. in Islamic and Medieval Studies from the Sorbonne University. He is a laureate of the prestigious prize "Grand Prix du chancelier des universites 2005" awarded to the best French PhD work in Literature and Human Sciences. Formerly a high-tech industry entrepreneur, Dov is teaching at the School of Business Administration of the Ben Gurion University.

The Australian government has been failing to deal with antisemitism. I show the neglect by Labor to carry through with the IHRA Working Definition of Antisemitism and how an ABC radio presenter, who just happens to be Jewish, can be complicit with antisemitism.
