‘You have lost your decency’, father of #Australian on #flotilla to #Gaza tells #Albanese government.
#ChrisOConnor, the father of #student #NeveOConnor, became emotional when he spoke of his daughter’s detainment. It is the second time she has been held by #Israel while attempting to deliver #humanitarianaid to Gaza.
He said when he looked at the global flotilla, he saw a “cross-section of #decent #humans across the world”, made up of:
“Different nationalities, different genders, different religions, different age groups. However, when I look at the #Albanese and #Wong government, I wonder where is the red line? We have watched the genocide in Gaza … Israel has introduced a #deathpenalty only for #Palestinians. We see no #sanctions from the Albanese government. The only conclusion that we can make is that they agree with the actions of the state of Israel.
I say clearly to Anthony Albanese and Senator [Penny] Wong, you have lost your #decency, you have lost your #dignity. If you wish to reclaim them, you will sanction Israel now and you will ensure that the 11 Australians held hostage are returned safely and quickly.” #auspol #IsraelGenocide
