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.

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

Words are worth nothing compared to action. With a stroke of a pen she could recognise the Palestinian state. With little more effort than that, the Government could cease selling or buying weapons from Israel. Not doing so is a deliberate choice to signal support for Israel.
If you’re going to continue defending genocide, I’m done here. I won’t put up with that shit.
