Instead of recognizing Palestine as a state, countries should withdraw recognition of Israel.
One of the conditions of being accepted into the UN is that member states should adhere to UN resolutions, and any country not abiding by UN resolutions, should be expelled from the UN.
BREAKING:
🇮🇱 Israel attacked the Global Steadfastness Fleet' that is carrying food for Gaza
Israeli drone strike against a second vessel of the 'Global Steadfastness Fleet' that are attempting to breach the Gaza-blockade.
The ship targeted, Alma, was the largest of the fleet, and once again within Tunisian water-spaces.
The vessel was docked at Port Sidi Bou Said, Tunisia, when it was struck by Israel.
ABC’s John Lyons has slammed Israel for wiping out an average of 28 children in Gaza “Every Day. Week in, week out, month in, month out”
Lyons “There are on avg. a classroom of Palestinian children in Gaza today, who this time tomorrow will be killed by an Israeli bomb”😳#Abc
Congrats to @steph_march and the whole @ForeignOfficial team for this jarring piece of work.

Antisemitism Envoy Jillian Segal — whose is paid over $1,000 a day in a role costing taxpayers over $1 million a year — is a top executive of a pro-Israel lobby group. https://t.co/OLgvr5l85U
“Distinguished epidemiologist Prof Fiona Stanley said she was “deeply sad” and “ashamed” after the Fremantle hospital that bears her name abruptly cancelled a 2024 event featuring Palestinian Australian doctors speaking about their experiences in Gaza—”

A convention of Australian politics is that foreign policy, whatever the domestic debate, is outwardly singular. Formally promising contrary policy to a foreign government is very shabby behaviour. Conservatives once valued propriety. https://t.co/5PigVAVlMk
Neither to my knowledge has any Australian hospital or medical college or association commented on the deliberate destruction of hospitals in Gaza and murder of substantial number of doctors and health professionals. The testimony of UK doctors has been ignored. Why the silence?
While the Australian media have triple heart bi passes cause the PM hasn’t bent the knee to Trump, our PM should be congratulated for emphasising his commitment to a more independent foreign policy.
Anthony Albanese has read the Australian electorate.
An electorate that’s not under thumb of Murdoch etc.
Australians overwhelmingly support the government recognising a Palestinian state.
The PM has said and has now proven, our foreign policy decisions will be made around the Cabinet table.
Not off the demands of the White House or Netanyahu.
Finally we have a leader that puts Australia’s interests first.
I’ve never heard an interview with this immediacy. I came close to tears. How can this be allowed to happen? Who can hesitate to say “genocide?” Who dare say that this eyewitness account of an Australian doctor is Hamas propaganda? https://t.co/1Dvx0RgSuj
Albanese has a voice and a platform to demand a fresh focus on peace-building as a priority of his government. Will he accept this urgent challenge? #auspol#Palestine#Gaza

Be sure to share and tag @albomp let him know that this is not enough, not why we’ve marched, rallied, petitioned for… we demand an end to complicity, accountability and freedom!
