Anti-Semitic incidents cross Australia

January 8, 2009

SYDNEY, Australia (JTA) -- A Sydney Jewish man was attacked during a pro-Palestinian rally and a major Melbourne synagogue was painted with anti-Israel slogans.

The 47-year-old man, who declined to be named, was attacked Dec. 29 when about 1,000 demonstrators ground Sydney’s city center to a standstill as they marched against Israel’s airstrikes on Gaza, according to a report in the Australian Jewish News.

News of the attack came as Temple Beth Israel, Melbourne’s largest Progressive synagogue, was painted with anti-Semitic and anti-Israel slogans earlier this week.

The Sydney man, who suffered a dislocated shoulder that may require surgery, unwittingly became caught up in the crowd and, faced with the vitriolic anti-Israel slogans, exchanged words with several protesters, according to the report.

Moments after he left the scene, he said three men chased and attacked him. The man was treated at a hospital and reported the incident to police two days later. Police are investigating the incident.

“I love Israel,” the paper quoted him as saying. “They were there to demonstrate. It’s just that I was there by myself and there were thousands of them.”

A communitywide pro-Israel rally is scheduled for Sunday at Central Synagogue, Sydney’s largest synagogu

THE family of an Australian soldier killed in Afghanistan said he was a "kind soul" who would "do anything for anyone".

Private Gregory Michael Sher, 30, was killed in a rocket attack in Oruzgan Province, in southern Afghanistan, early on Sunday evening (AEDT).

He leaves behind his parents, two brothers and a partner, who are receiving support from the defence department.

His family said they and his many friends were devastated by his untimely death, the Herald Sun reported.

"Although the family of any person in the military is aware of the possible risks involved, it is not until the worst happens that you realise the real danger our armed forces personnel face, " his family said.

"Greg, for all who knew him, was a man of purpose and committed determination. He was an extremely positive person with a kind soul.

"He was the sort of mate who would do anything for anyone, and his friends knew him for the great guy that he was.

"He was a loyal and loving family member who always put his family high on his list of priorities.

"Greg was much admired by his Army colleagues and was seen as a quiet achiever who always got the job done. His mates have described him as the best operator they have ever known.

"His decision to serve his country was a true indication of his character. He always wanted to help and be of assistance, and he had this opportunity on a previous deployment to East Timor."

Private Sher was a member of the Sydney-based 1st Commando Regiment and at the time of the attack was with a Special Operations Task Group element that had deployed from Tarin Kowt to a provincial patrol base.

He had also joined the Victorian Association of Jewish ex-Servicemen and Women (VAJAX) two years ago.

VAJAX president Ben Hirsh said Private Sher was the group's youngest member and his death would hit everyone hard.

"He was a very straight forward young man, serious about the work he was involved in. He carried it out faithfully and went above and beyond," he said.

"We considered him one of our finest and to lose him it's a sad thing. He was ready to lay his life on the line and he did and unfortunately he didn't survive. "

Mr Hirsh offered VAJAX's condolences to Private Sher's family and said they would help the family in any way they could.

He said the group had plans to build a lasting memorial to Private Sher.

Private Sher is the eighth Australian Defence Force soldier to be killed in Afghanistan since 2002, but the first to die as a result of indirect fire.

Born in South Africa in 1978, Private Sher moved to Australia with his family in 1986.

He joined the Australian Army in 1998 as an army reserve infantryman and was deployed to East Timor in 2002.

For his service in East Timor, Private Sher received several awards, including the Australian Active Service Medal, the United Nations Transitional Authority in East Timor Medal and the Infantry Combat badge.

He has also been awarded the Afghanistan Campaign Medal, the NATO medal and the Australian Defence Medal.

Acting Prime Minister Julia Gillard said yesterday that she would respect the desire of the soldier's family for complete privacy at this time.
