US support "to Israel's right to defend itself is ironclad... and that's not going to change."

The US' "ironclad commitment to Israel's security... has never been stronger."

"Without humanitarian aid, even our best friends will find it difficult to support us for a long time."

"Israel has to be very careful, because you're losing a lot of the world, you're losing a lot of support."

"If [Israel] keeps this up with this incredibly conservative government... they're going to lose support from around the world."

Israelis "are facing major, possibly generational damage to their reputation."

"[U]nless Israel changes its course it will continue to lose support."

Israel is "burning through its reserves of international support."

"When all this is over... International sympathy will have expired and Israel will be forced to exist in an even greater state of siege."

The Royal Commission on Antisemitism and Social Cohesion began its first public hearing in Sydney on Tuesday, led by former High Court Justice Virginia Bell. The inquiry was established following a December 14 attack at a Hanukkah event at Bondi Beach that killed 15 people and injured 40 others.

Sajid Akram was shot dead by police at the scene of the attack, while his son Naveed Akram survived and faces charges including 15 counts of murder, 40 counts of attempted murder and committing a terrorist act. Police allege the gunmen were inspired by the Islamic State group.

Commissioner Bell stated the inquiry will not hear evidence from eyewitnesses to the attack to avoid prejudicing ongoing criminal proceedings against Naveed Akram. She said the trial will be the occasion to lead evidence of the attack and the commission must work without risking prejudice.

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese initially resisted calls for a royal commission, arguing it would take too long to provide answers, but reversed his decision following pressure from Jewish leaders, victims' families and opposition lawmakers. The inquiry absorbed a separate review by Dennis Richardson.

Senior counsel Richard Lancaster said dozens of notices had been issued to commonwealth and state agencies to produce documents, but the level of responses was not presently where the commission would like it to be. He said further notices were yet to be issued to various organizations of interest.

The commission must deliver an interim report by April 30 and a final report by December 14, the first anniversary of the attack. Bell said delivering the report by the anniversary was a matter of critical importance and acknowledged that for some it will never be right to speak of closure.
