There's another interesting article -
Bernard Keane's opinion piece in "Crikey", 30 October 2023.

It tells us that - "By denying Palestinian anger and grief
for the deadly siege of Gaza, Peter Dutton is pushing a
well-worn narrative that serves the interests of terrorists."

Keane goes on to say that "Peter Dutton provided a new
low-point in the already barrel-bottom nature of the
Coalition's exploitation of the Israel-Hamas warp yesterday, in
his attack on Tony Burke for explaining what his own
constituents have been telling him about the siege of Gaza."

Dutton's own words:

"Tony Burke, to his great shame, is playing to his
constituency within his own electorate when he should be
acting in the national interest. He's just going after his
own local political opportunity and putting our national
interest as a second."

Keane tells us that apart from the standard hypocrisy of
trying to score political points of accusing your opponent
of playing politics with an issue. Dutton who returned to
attack Burke again and again during the course of an
interview on Sky News - was engaging in something much
darker.

In rejecting Burke's comments as illegitimate and as
parochial politics divorced from the national interest
Dutton was dismissing the grief and anxiety of Australians
with friends and family in Gaza who can only sit and watch
as loved ones are killed or endure the developing humanitarian
crisis that's unfolding in the region.

When we know the history and origins of the people of
these areas - what's happening today is really awful.
With no solution in sight.

I can no longer watch the news on TV.

What's happening in this conflict is horrendous
And the world is watching and allowing it to
happen. I can't watch any more and I feel for
all the innocent victims.

The following link is a brief summary of the
question of Palestine by the United Nations:

- Watch this then

This is what the Pro-Israel crowd want to convince others is perfectly ok.

Now multiply it by about 5000.

'Move along, nothing to see here', they imply.
'Cut off the internet so no-one sees'

This is not ok, I will not condone it, and I will not give my silent consent to it.
- And anyone who expects others to should be ashamed.

everyone supporting Hamas must be deported if not a citizen. All those crying from the river to the sea Palestine must be free. This means they do not accept the State of Israel. They must be reeducated in our values of not getting involved in denying this right.
