Great article, all true. The Labor Party needs to remember that 79% of Australians are against Israel. Albo and Wong's weasel words about the genocide show one thing - that they stand with money, the big end of town, and the powerful. Everyone else has to fend for themselves. They're a disgrace.

Well said as always.

While listening to the news from the UK last night, I wondered if our spineless government would take this opportunity to join the UK with sanctions? Then I heard that it wasn't just the UK but also France, Canada, Denmark, Spain, Finland, Ireland, Iceland, Norway, Poland, Portugal and Sweden standing united against the illegal settlements - but no Australia - quelle surprise! If this wasn't the perfect opportunity to not go it alone as our PM and FM seem so frightened to do, then there will never be a good time. They are spineless, inhumane politicians who are only interested in power.

What policy isn’t it just do what the US says on Israel

Fine journalism, thank you. I truly despair and feel shockingly let down by PM Albanese, for whom I had so much respect.

There can be nothing but utter contempt for such a soulless , conscience -free government, whose spineless grovelling to appease

Zionist Israel ( and America ) would not fool any alert Primary School student . Apparently they can say that Palestine has a right to exist , but they refuse to condemn the genocide that is being conducted to make certain that Palestine will cease to exist .

There are words for this , the most polite being unfitness for office in any alleged democracy.

Australian Labor Party (notwithstanding Labor Against War's and UK Labor's good steps) are all talk, and no action on respecting their Gen0c1de convention and ATT obligations. So their campaigners and voters should provide them similar assistance next election.
