The Prime Ministers of Australia, Canada and New Zealand are making sounds of living fighters for international justice. We have known for a long time that the western democracies have lost their credibility in matters related ti Israel’s genocidal campaign in Gaza and over the Palestinian Problem. 

What a credible spine looks like

Since 1948 Israel has cornered the support of many nations with the outcome that entire populations and states are willingly ignorant of the following

• concern for human life is impartial
• international consensus has no teeth even in the United Nations
• humanitarian policies in all war situations
• genocide is not beyond trhe State of Israel’s paranoia
• Israel cannot pursue it annihilation war and expect to have a hostage release proceed alomgside a release of Palestinians from Israeli prisoms
