Description:

When journalist Deborah Stone learned of the Hamas terrorist attack in Israel one year ago, she had to get to work. 

As a Jewish woman and editor in chief of The Jewish Independent news website, finding a balance in the reporting was what she strove for now and then. 

It’s been a challenge, as Jewish Australians reflect on the bloodiest single day in Israel’s history and the death toll from the controversial military response grows. 

Today, Deborah Stone shares her reflections on the past year and whether vastly different views on what’s happened since can be reconciled. 

She highlights the increased anti-Semitism faced by Jewish Australians and the impact on their sense of safety. 

Deborah Stone also shares a powerful story from a young woman with both Jewish and Arabic heritage, illustrating the possibility of caring for both communities.
