‘Lions of Zion’ Grassroots Group Formed to Stand Against Anti-Semitism

Rally organiser says the movement is also about maintaining Aussie values.

The grassroots Lions of Zion has only been in existence for two months—garnering 3,300 followers on Instagram—and the message from organiser Yaacov Travitz is that it will continue to grow if anti-Semitism doesn’t stop.

Travitz made the comments to The Epoch Times during a rally last weekend on the steps of Melbourne’s state parliament.
