DEAR News Of The Area,
THE greatest strategy employed by weak leaders is the art of distraction.
While this week’s MAGA focus has been on the US’s “spectacular” bombing of Iranian nuclear facilities, Israel’s genocidal annihilation of Palestine continues.
While our PM’s support for the highly questionable US action was sadly predictable, any justification must seem pretty ridiculous from the perspective of surrounding countries in the Middle East.
The real long term existential threat in the region has arguably been the extremist Netanyahu government, an obvious US proxy, with its ongoing unhindered military annihilation of not only Gaza but forays into neighboring Lebanon, Syria, Yemen, and now Iran.
Remember Netanyahu was pivotal in the US (and Australia’s) invasion of Iraq and has made no secret of his personal 40 year agenda to bomb Iran.
The world also seems to have forgotten about Israel’s ‘illegal’ nuclear arsenal estimated to be between 100 to 200 warheads.
While our opposition leader Ley seems to have lost her tongue, spokesperson Andrew Hastie made the extraordinary claim that adherence to the rules based order is just ‘nostalgia’!
Really? So we are to embrace chaos and stupidity?
We wouldn’t allow that on the sporting field, so why in real life.
At least Greens leader Larissa Waters and Independent Jacqui Lambie have made clear and concise statements which appear to have an honest grasp of the situation.
Regards,
Dave WOOD,
