  You haven’t told me why you care. Do you not think Palestine should be recognised as an independent country?

    Because I imagine a state needs to be defined physically before it can be recognised.

    Labor seem to be working on the hard yards, Greens are trolling with theatre.

      It seems you don’t care enough to track down the statement parliament was asked to sign.

      I saw the statement before I ever saw the result of the vote. It’s excruciatingly simple.

      This House recognise the State of Palestine.

      It couldn’t be more simple.

      Labor doesn’t support it because they support Israel and the genocide Israel is perpetuating. Or to be more accurate, they’re accepting of genocide as long as it doesn’t upset America. There’s nothing more to it.

        That is simpleton level of simplicity.

        Penny Wong went to the region pushing the 2SS. That is about 15 million.
