Those countries 'recognising' the non-existing state of Palestine are as obtuse on the issue as they are with the non-climate problem. Our own Prime Minister has made an absolute fool of himself on the subject, whining away to a nigh on empty chamber. Australia is a pissant on the world stage, and our leader sounds like a 'Dad and Dave' character. The fool couldn't even stop himself from a getting a teenage girl selfie with Donald Trump, who had a WTF look of embarrassment on his face.

Dear Ttbn,

By commenting here, being the first to do so, you have just given the "David Singer" bot a platform.
So long as an article has no comments, it does not appear on this forum's main page, so very few people are even aware of it.

I don't read those AI-generated "articles", but on title, why not allow these so-called "Palestinians" to have a state of their own, should they want to? That will serve two distinct purposes:

1) It would demonstrate to the whole world that there are no "Palestinian" people, as they will use all possible excuses to postpone having their state and keep it permanently in future tense. Having a state means responsibility and accountability, not anything they want.
What they really want is for Israel not to exist, so they can rejoin greater Syria, having been forcefully separated from it by England and France in World-War-I - they will obviously not achieve that goal and a Palestinian state cannot advance their cause.

2) Reprimanding Israel for Netanyahu's crimes, not only against "Palestinian" civilians, but also against his own subjects, the citizens of Israel. Israel can only regain sanity once it is confined to its own borders and if it does not or cannot itself take care of its own health, then it is a good thing for the rest of the world to help it.

Compare the full capacity crowd listening to Donald Trump with the few people at Albanese's whine. The left media laughingly claimed that Albanese ‘told the world….’, when most of the world wasn't there to listen. Australia simply does not figure with the ‘world’.

Now, the Dad and Dave team wants a seat on the Security Council! Remember when Rudd couldn't bribe enough Third World countries last time? It still cost us an arm and a leg.

All you have to do is go online to see how very few people were interested in hearing Albobozo bore for Australia. What an embarrassment for us: people who are told that we can ‘go it alone’ in the Pacific, without the help of America.

Hell. We can't even bribe PNG to choose us over China.

Then there was Bowen doing his own thing in a back room somewhere telling - how few people: the audience or lack thereof wasn't shown - what a wonder Australia was on climate change, aspiring to reduce our 1% of the world's emissions by 62%-70% by exporting them to China and India, America, Russia, who are all increasing their emissions by the day, with gay abandon.

If Australia disappeared off the face of the Earth, it would have no effect on climate change or emissions. Just like it has no effect on anything else, including the equally useless United Nations.

There is no excuse for a little band of Zionist-Nazi apologists, including the author of yet another piece of drivel. David, give up with the 103 year old nonsense from the long gone League Of Nations, put it in the same dust bin as the Treaty Of Versailles from yesteryear. You also clam legitimacy for the Zionist state based on the fairy tail book of the Bible! What you should condemn is the genocide and murder of 65,000 innocent Palestinians in Gaza, and the murderous crimes being committed by the illegal Zionist settler population in the West Bank, all condoned by the great war criminal Naziyahu!

The palestinians don't want a state. They want a base from which they can kill Jews. Surprisingly the Jews don't want to be killed.

All the western nations who are running scared of their native Mohammadian voting blocks can recognise whatever they want. It won't make a lick of difference on the ground.

The "western nations" - soon to be part of the Third World - and their 'non-discriminatory' mass immigration (or more correctly the knob headed politicians of the West) didn't have a clue what was going to happen when they decided to import lunatics nothing like the locals.

Fortunately, the knob heads are going to suffer the consequences, along with the rest of us. There is nowhere for them to go now that the entire West's knob heads have all done the same thing in the way of importing Muslims, Hindus, Sikhs - anything non-Christian and crazy. Even the once vanilla Switzerland has allowed itself to be over-run. There is no escape.

Interesting that you would include "(b) a defined territory", in your article singer. Something israel has refused to do for 70 years.
So where are israels borders singer?

It was good to see the majority of world leaders take action by walking out on the accused war criminal and Zionist-Nazi Fuhrer Bibi Naziyahu at the United Nations.

In trying to understand all this two state schnozzle I go back to the
7th century when the Arabs in Arabia apparently lived in a reasonably
well defined state.
However someone (Mohammad ?) decided to invade Mesopotamia in 650+-ad
and successfully conquered the whole area.
It appears from that time Arabs from Arabia settled in the area.

My question is does this occupation give the Arabs the unquestionable
right to ownership and the right to destroy or remove everyone else
living in that conquered area ?

This appears to be the crux of the matter.

No Paul, it was not good to see them all walking out.
It just shows how cowardly they are that they are not able to face
any criticism and defiance.
Further more it shows why meetings on a cease fire are 100% failure.

The walkout just showed what ignorant pigs infest the United Nations. They just hate hearing views other than their own. No wonder nothing changes, and the killing continues.

It was a toss up as to who had the smallest audience: Albanese or Netanyahu. Different reasons for the lack of numbers. The pigs hate Netanyahu, Israel and Jews. But most of them wouldn't have a clue who Albanese was.

I watched both Trump's and Netanyahu's addresses, and both gave an honest summing-up of the useless UN. Very refreshing.

It was realised before Netanyahu's speech that his audience would be small because most of the world's leaders had already returned home.

The ‘big walkout’ was just a bunch of ‘movie extras’, nobodies, left behind for effect.

It was known that Netanyahu would have to take a longer route than he normally would to get to New York, so most of the attendees could do their bit of business, and scarper early.

Netanyahu was late because he had to avoid flying via, or even over, countries who had threatened to arrest him, and who might force him to land to do so.

Don't forget that the International Criminal Court had issued an arrest warrant on charges of war crimes supposedly committed by Israel in Gaza.

So, stuff the corrupt and evil United Nations. Netanyahu will be safe in America, with Trump, who feels that he now has a viable plan to stop the war.

The Zionist-Nazi leader should be made to face justice for his alleged war crimes. Just as Trump had his day in court and was found guilty, so should Naziyahu be given the same opportunity to tell the world why he ordered the execution of 65,000 innocent people.

Naziyahu? One minute Netanyahu is 'hard right'. Next he is National Socialist: a man of the extreme Left, like Afolf Hitler.

It's always the most ignorant who make the most noise, and blow silly figures and ridiculous assertions out of their arsehole - such as the deaths of 650,000 people being ordered by a man who warns the enemy to to leave an area prior to attacking it. A man who feeds the enemy, only to have the food stolen and sold on at inflated prices by Hamas, the terrorists these same 'poor' people voted for. No evidence. Just raving-mad screeching from a mentally disturbed troll.

More immigration sneakiness.

Dozens of Gazan "refugees" entered Australia Friday night. Welcomed by Tony Burke, who tried to keep it quiet in the name of "modern Australia".

Dear Paul and Ttbn,

Regarding Netanyahu/Naziyahu:

The truth is somewhere in between:

The man is not interested in killing anyone, nor in feeding anyone, nor does he have any true ideology of his own.
All he wants, for completely personal and family reasons, is an ongoing, slow-burning war that will go for as long as possible.

If people from both "sides" happen to be killed and wounded on the way, oh well, that was never his intention (though it is of some Nazis he had to gather around him to survive because no decent people want to be his friends), just let not too many die too quickly, so the war can go on.

Its popular for people who support extremism to try and distance themselves from one, by claiming; "Oh, they're on the extreme left, I'm in the other direction." Just as ttbn is calling Hitler extreme left, where does that put him.

Then ttbn says; "It's always the most ignorant who make the most noise, and blow silly figures and ridiculous assertions out of their arsehole - such as the deaths of 650,000 people" Well the figure is 65,000, you're out by a factor of 10, but whose counting, probably never went school, or failed kindergarten, now who is ignorant!

Dear Paul,

Be it 65,000 or 650,000, the Gazans are not the only ones suffering in this war.

Apart from those murdered, wounded and kidnapped on October 7th, 2023,
about 1,050 Israelis were killed, 29,500 wounded and 143,000 displaced. Over 37,500 rockets were fired at Israel and about 10,000 Israelis lost their homes in the war with Iran alone (not including homes with just minor damage or broken glass).

295,000 IDF reservists were called up, often against their will, to forsake their families, livelihood and everything and participate in this bloody war for many long months. In today's news, 1/3 of their wives/partners considered divorce as a direct result and the longer they served the higher this proportion. Children too grow up without their fathers.

Even when not physically hurt, Israelis also rarely get a full night's sleep as they are regularly woken up by air-raid sirens to run into shelters.

Netanyahu doesn't care about his own people any more than he cares for the Gazans.

Hi Yuyutsu,

You can't be in a war zone and not suffer. Its always the innocent who suffer the most, some more than others. In the Middle East the Israeli people are suffering as well, the deaths of the 1200 was not incidental it was a tragedy. All deaths caused by violence are a crime. I see no right and wrong side in war,only wrong, only suffering. The majority of the Israeli people, as are the majority of Palestinians, both innocent, they are not the cause, but rather the effect of war.

Who's lying?

Here’s the full text of Trump’s 20-point plan to end Israel’s war on Gaza
http://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/9/29/heres-the-full-text-of-trumps-20-point-plan-to-end-israels-war-on-gaza

"While Gaza re-development advances and when the PA reform program is faithfully carried out, the conditions may finally be in place for a credible pathway to Palestinian self-determination and statehood, which we recognize as the aspiration of the Palestinian people."

* may ?

LIARS!

Benjamin Netanyahu: "There Will be No Palestinian State"
http://youtu.be/rQhnsRMia0c

Hi AC,

I think Trumps 20 point plan is commendable, and with no Hamas in government the Palestinian people deserve a pathway to peace, and self determination. The vast majority of countries (including Australia) recognise that a two state solution, minus Hamas, is the only reasonable outcome

Dear Critic,

«the conditions may finally be in place»

Yes! The one condition needed is a different government in Israel, and it will take a bit of time as elections in Israel should be held no later than October 27th, 2026.
