  What questions? It’s pretty simple. Israel is a terrorist state founded by insane cultists with the goal of “reclaiming” a mythical fatherland and cleanse it from the unclean.

  When the rule of law has failed in Israel to stop the fascists from engaging in wars of aggression and genocide its kinda laughable to even imagine much less believe that Israel would respond much less admit guilt for the murder of aid workers.

  I get this stuff needs to be published and broadcasted but the context should be for the citizens of countries around the world to stop buying Israeli made stuff whilst conversely pushing this matter into the political agenda.

  It still does my head in that in Australia, NSW the premier (head of our centre “left” political party, Labor) can hand the conservatives an easy win by pushing the cops to brutally beat up protesters who are protesting against Herzog visit and Israel’s genocide.

  I hold little to no hope the Israeli’s will hold any of their IDF accountable for this. If there will be justice it’ll come from outside pressure. Which seems largely non-existent in halls of power.

  Something our weak PM could do however is commit his government’s financial and logistics support to well run and effective charities like World Central Kitchen.

  Call it the ‘Zomi Fund’ (with the families permission) and direct the fund to support a tight range of international non-military alligned food and medecine charities. Increase Australia’s aid budget to do so, and hopefully replace a little of what has been lost due to USAID cuts.

  It’d give the added benefit of giving the government the ability to claim they’re acting on refugee and illegal migration in a humanitarian way, give the talking heads something more complex than ‘der… stop boats!’ to chew over.

  Thwre were British and Polish people in that convoy as well. The Aus government could coordinate with those countries to implement separate but equivalent funds to compound the effects.
