Israel condemns Australia's UN 'flip flop', says it rewards terrorism
- In it's most damning statement yet, Israel's President Benjamin Netanyahu's office made clear the decision to promote Palestinian statehood was seen as a betrayal.
The article from The Sydney Morning Herald discusses Israel's strong condemnation of Australia's decision to support a United Nations resolution calling for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza. Israel's Foreign Ministry described Australia's vote as a "flip-flop" that rewards terrorism, arguing that it undermines Israel's right to defend itself against Hamas attacks. The resolution, which passed with 153 countries in favor, 10 against, and 23 abstentions, was seen by Israel as ignoring the complexities of the conflict and the actions of Hamas. Australia's Foreign Minister, Penny Wong, justified the vote by emphasizing the need for humanitarian aid and civilian protection in Gaza, while also acknowledging Israel's right to defend itself within international law. This shift in Australia's stance has sparked debate about the balance between supporting Israel's security and advocating for Palestinian rights.
