We need someone, or a couple of someone’s with clout & power to come out & say enough! We need brave people to start & others will follow - where the hell are they!
Ordinary people try & are treated abysmally & dismissed — I hate that this starts like a song but - we bloody well need a hero! #AusPol.

@feather1952 💯 There have been a few voices - Spain has been strong and a lot of the charities have been strong in their condemnation. Our Government has been disgraceful though. A few stern words and then carry on regardless. It's well past time that we cut all ties to Israel.

Most governments have been disgraceful. All use weasel words that mean nothing.

Good call: where are our heroes? 🤔
“The failure of Australia and Western governments to hold Israel to account enabled the abuse of Gaza flotilla detainees, Jerusalem Peace Prize recipient Stuart Rees argues.
If bullies notice that no one intervenes to stop their behaviour, they may interpret such non-intervention as permission to continue bullying.”🧟‍♂️
