The historic Harbour Bridge protest for Palestine on August 3 proved what opinion polls had already shown: A majority want federal Labor to sanction Israel for its genocidal starvation policy. This has Labor, both state and federal, worried that they are losing the so-called “middle ground”.
Immediately after the march, federal Labor ministers were clearly reeling from the images of hundreds of thousands of people standing in the rain for hours for Palestine; they know many were joining their first protest.
…
Labor is now looking for cover and its sudden rush to support a two-state solution may be it. Just what a Palestinian state covering an obliterated Gaza and a besieged West Bank would look like has not been answered by the government, even if the Zionists in charge of Israel’s genocidal policy were to accept it (which they won’t).

It’d be interesting to know why some people want a ceasefire, yet do not want their government to take any action to reach that goal.

Must feel bad realising your pro-genocide stance is putting you in an ever decreasing minority, eh?
