Our local Federal member here in Australia recently had this on his Facebook page.
‘Recently I met with members of the NSW Central West Muslim community regarding the current situation in Gaza.
We held a meaningful discussion about their concerns, and they have given me a petition to present to the Federal Parliament calling for an urgent ceasefire and the delivery of humanitarian aide to the region.’

This was my comment: “There would have been no conflict if Hamas had not gone into Israel and butchered Israelis. How dare you present a petition for a ceasefire when Israel has a duty to defend itself! Are there any Jews that live in your district? Perhaps you need to talk to them as well! From the River to the Sea may God keep Israel free!”
Was I too harsh? I think not. This politician should stick with Australian duties and leave Israel to defend itself from these murderers!
