For Such a Time As This: Australia-Israel Allies Relaunches for 2025

Political, faith and community leaders have converged at Parliament House as the Australia-Israel Allies Caucus formally relaunched in 2025. Part of a global network of Parliamentarians who support Israel and the Jewish people, the Australia-Israel Allies Caucus has now reached into the nation’s federal and state parliaments in its efforts to advance the Australia-Israel relationship.

With the rise of antisemitism and the deterioration of the Australian Government’s relationship with Israel, Australia’s national security and global standing are under threat.

Australia is facing an antisemitism crisis, and it is incumbent upon all Australians – and especially those elected to lead the country – that we stand up, speak up, and show up for Israel and the Jewish people. The world is watching – allies and competitors alike. We must have each other’s backs in the fight against antisemitism.

The Australia-Israel Allies Caucus exists for such a time as this, by uniting political leaders, in the cause of combatting antisemitism and to advance the Australia-Israel relationship.

Australia and Israel are two pioneering and freedom-loving nations sharing a rich Judaeo-Christian and democratic tradition. From the battlefields of Beersheba to the tech hubs of Tel Aviv and Sydney, Australia has partnered with Israel in the contest for democracy, trade, and invention. We want to celebrate that heritage and nourish a vibrant economic relationship for many years to come.

There has never been a more important time for political leaders to support Israel and the Jewish community in Australia. The Australia-Israel Allies Caucus provides the vehicle of support.
