In short:

Australia has voted in favour of a UN resolution demanding Israel rapidly end its occupation of the Palestinian Territories.

The vote represents a shift in a longstanding position. Australia abstained on similar resolutions at previous meetings of the General Assembly.

What’s next?

An international conference to work towards a two-state solution is set to take place next year.

        A right-wing nationalist state, long since purged of any socialist/secular-humanist idealism its founders may have had, and they have the idea of “Judaeochristianity” to promote it. Also, it gives them a free pass from any antisemitism allegations no matter how many times they mention George Soros or “cultural Marxism”.

    Just in time to have crushed protests, fired media figures, supplied weapons (I’m sorry, supplied parts of weapons platforms. Very different), and starvation to have kicked in.

    One must hope that better late than never holds true.
