So he is calling for the elimination of Israel? Or is he calling for a one-nation state where a Palestinian majority will supposedly conduct a democracy without misogyny, homophobia ignoring the Hamas agenda to expel all Jews?
Am well aware there are a growing number of Jews with an agenda to expel all Arabs from Gaza. I wouldn't want ABC propagating sloganeering from them either.
He's calling for an end to the genocide, and for the Australian government to cease promoting genocide by doing two-way arms trade with the genocidal state.
Anything else is whataboutism.
Listen to the words he actually said
He said 'for Palestine to be free, from the river to the sea'.
That is a call for Islamic Imperialism, for the end of Israel and the killing of all Israelis including the 20% of Israelis who are Muslim.
He qualified what he meant by that statement in his very next breath. And it very much wasn't a call for imperialism.
It doesn't do anyone well to ignore the clearly stated intentions behind somebody's words.
You are right but it wasn't in the Crikey article of OP so go maybe easy on the commenter.
Wasn't it? Okay.
Its [email protected], i hope they know, i know they're a good person.
Lots of AZ regulars know each other's views fairly well now. I's actually surprised this was seagoon's first comment in this thread tbh.
