ordered #EuropeanUnion to send firefighting planets to help #Israel in "solidarity" to it while it carries out genocide in occupied #Palestine 's #Gaza, this happens.

Israel heard #Europe's message.

Oh, FFS. Albanese's "heritage" is so meaningful to him he's complicit in a genocide, beholden to the fossil fuel industry, talks constantly of growing up in public housing while most in need no longer have even that luxury & is abusing the human rights of asylum seekers/refugees!

A staggering 85% of Labor MPs voted against condemning genocide in Gaza, while approving $22 billion in arms deals w/ companies enabling it. Domestically, they’ve preserved offshore detention, increased ASIO powers, & passed counter-terror laws targeting Muslim youth.

Death, destruction and ethnic cleansing in Gaza and on the West Bank continues. Israeli savagery, lying, and disdain for international law display the depths of inhumanity, but when challenged to show courage by supporting life for Palestinians, the Australian Government remains silent.
Silence is no response to slaughter, so at least recognise Palestine
