How low will the Albanese government sink in its desperation to pander to the Greens and the Muslim voters of Western Sydney? Not to mention the red-browns of the Labor left factions.
Australia’s foreign minister, Penny Wong, is a left faction member. And it shows:
Australia has voted in the UN in favour Palestinian statehood and for the withdrawal of Israel from the Occupied Territories, in a dramatic shift by the Albanese government, breaking ranks with the US and further damaging its relationship with the Jewish state.
If you ever had any doubt that the UN has become a thoroughly anti-Semitic body, its deranged hatred of the Jewish state lays all bare.
The resolution, which was carried 157 to eight with seven abstentions, called for the realisation of “the inalienable rights of the Palestinian people, primarily the right to self-determination and the right to their independent state”.
It also demanded that Israel, “the occupying power … bring an end to its unlawful presence in the Occupied Palestinian Territory, as rapidly as possible, to cease immediately all new settlement activities and to evacuate all settlers from the Occupied Palestinian Territory.”
Yet the UN has never voted to condemn Hamas’ unprovoked slaughter. In fact, the UN explicitly rejected a US resolution condemning Hamas.
Like the UN, the Albanese government is firmly on the side of the terrorist enemies of humanity.
Liberal deputy leader Sussan Ley has slammed the Albanese government for changes to its position on key UN votes on Palestine – one of which would support an “irreversible pathway” to a Palestinian state – saying the move would be “rewarding terrorists” […]
“We still have hostages in tunnels under Gaza, we still have Hamas in the Gaza Strip, almost in control, and how is this not rewarding terrorists at this point in time?” […]
The Australia/Israel & Jewish Affairs Council said it was “deeply disappointed” in the government’s latest “one-sided” positioning in the UN on Palestine.
“This is a resolution that puts many obligations on Israel but asks nothing of the Palestinians,” AIJAC executive director Dr Colin Rubenstein said.
It’s clear that the UN – and the Albanese government – is determined to force Israel to endure having a terrorist state explicitly committed to slaughtering Jews as its neighbour in perpetuity.
The government’s stance is also directly at odds with the incoming leader of our biggest ally.
As president, Donald Trump plans to be a ferocious and unqualified supporter of Israel in the war-torn Middle East, including by joining forces with the Jewish state to maximise military and diplomatic pressure on Hamas to release its hostages in Gaza.
Total support for Israel was the clear message the president-elect was trying to send with his incendiary threat to the terror group to release all Israeli hostages by the time he takes office or be hit “harder than anybody has been hit in the long and storied history of the United States of America”.
Trump’s statement was a startling change of tone compared to the qualified and safe diplomatic language from the Biden administration on the Gaza conflict.
As I’ve written before, “qualified and safe diplomatic language” is the last thing anyone should use against Islamist terrorists. Because where the globalist elite hear “qualified and safe”, terrorists only hear “weakness”.
From Hamas’s perspective, Trump’s comments are a further example of the longer-term futility of continuing to fight a war the terror group has so clearly lost.
They’re already begging for mercy.
This week, Hamas’s partners in terror to the north in Lebanon, Hezbollah, agreed to a ceasefire after being hammered by Israeli forces in recent months, while Hezbollah’s puppet master, Iran, is wary of military confrontation with Israel after Israel launched two military strikes against it earlier this year […]
Trump was a firm supporter of Israel during his first term, recognising Jerusalem as its capital, thereby bolstering its claim over the disputed city, and helping forge the Abraham Accords normalising relations between Israel and the UAE, and Israel and Bahrain. Trump also pulled out of the so-called nuclear deal with Israel’s sworn enemy, Iran, and pursued a much more aggressive policy towards Iran than did the Biden administration.
Now all Australia has to do is rid itself of the irritating infection of the Albanese government. No matter how much the Jew-hating, red-brown left and the swivel-eyed Mahommedans of Western Sydney screech and tear their beards.
For a mob who like to bellow so often about “the right side of history”, it’s clear how history will judge Albanese and Wong. It won’t be kind.
