No more fence sitting … the Australian Government must condemn Israeli genocide! – Pearls and Irritations

The number of Palestinians killed in the Gaza Strip has risen by more than 200 to 4,385 since the beginning of the war with Israel two weeks ago, the Hamas-run Heath Ministry said.

Unfortunately voting “No” in the recent referendum suggests we still do.

We must make it clear to the current Israeli administration that our nation can no longer accept its actions and certainly do not “share its values “

As the International Court of Justice was preparing to release its most recent directive to Israel, Prime Minister Albanese made an encouraging statement declaring that Australia was a sovereign state and would chart its own course, so let us hope that means being guided by international law and the humanity of Australians.

Has British Law has been thrown out the window by what Mark Regev simply ALLEGES?  12 Independent UNRWA workers out of 13,000 weren’t  “Independent” ERGO the biggest UN Aid Agency is a systemic agent of HAMAS? Stop the aid!! Mark Regev is a proven systemic essential of Israel’s  current offensive he is a central suit in Israel’s attack on Gaza. The 12 UNRWA workers of 13,000 weren’t! What bullshit logic is being applied here?

12 black sheep don’t define a herd of 13,000.  One sandwich doesn’t make a picnic. We didn’t judge Israel or suspend arms supply when allegations of genocide were made or that the IDF was ordered to shoot their own citizens. We continued supply when it was alleged Palestinians in the West Bank and Jerusalem were being murdered and kidnapped. In fact, we allowed Israel to conduct their own investigation sometime in the future. That is an Israeli Promise!

Within 24 hours of an allegation made by Mark Regev, an advisor to Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu to the BBC last Friday, that 12 employees of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) participated in the October 7 operation, foreign ministers of the US, UK, Canada, Australia, and a few other countries, jumped to announce they are pausing their funding to UNRWA, thus collectively punishing millions of Palestinian refugees throughout the region.

David McBride verdict a sad day for democracy

Mark Dreyfus AG is related to Alfred Dreyfus the French artillery officer of Jewish ancestry from Alsace whose trial and conviction in 1894 on charges of treason became one of the most polarizing political dramas in modern French history.

Australian replay of the U.S.-UK persecution of WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange; the war criminals are running the persecution while the whistleblower is facing five indictments for the leaks, which carry maximum sentences of ten years each.  

A roll call of Australian whistleblowers and politicians was on hand to lend support. They addressed the assembled media and the McBride supporters, decrying what some described as a “war on whistleblowers” and others called the “war on truth”.

Damage in Gaza Strip during the October 2023

ALP Shame

Albanese of old isn’t today’s man. He once disagreed with our subservience in favor of our Indpendence

“At the height of the Cold War, Prime Minister Menzies agreed to the British request for a permanent site to test nuclear weapons… This was a political decision by a government that was subservient to the British government, and today there are parallels, with the Australian government being once again subservient to the decisions of a foreign power.” “Our government is about to redefine us in the eyes of the world as willing backers of US militarism.” – Anthony Albanese, 2003.
