"In a press conference on Monday morning, Albanese said: “#Israel’s actions are completely unacceptable.”

“It is outrageous that there be a blockade of food and supplies to people who are in need in #Gaza … People are starving. The idea that a democratic state withholds supply is an outrage.”"

    For those unfamiliar with Prime Minister Albanese:

    • Founding member and secretary of Parliamentary Friends of Palestine around 2000[1]
    • Complicit in the zionist regime’s recent invasions and ongoing genocide in Gaza
    • Australia trades with the regime, and arrested port protesters and members of the Maritime Union of Australia, including the leader of the Sydney branch
    • Australia is the sole exporter of the F-35 bomber fuselage
    • Australia repeatedly supported the invasion through UN voting

    Everyone is now doing the “Democrats after trump is elected: Ethnic cleansing is wrong” meme.

    At least it’s being called out, but it’s not like Israel’s behaviour has changed one iota, it’s just now there’s the prospect of there being a trump tower built on the ruins of Gaza.
