The lack of pressure on Israel to release the thousands of Palestinian hostages (including CHILDREN) says a lot about what Peace that lays ahead, for the Palestinians. There cannot be peace without justice, human rights and dignity of ALL. Palestinian lives matter.

The Greens are not playing this time
A Green government would proscribe the Israel Defense Forces as a terrorist organisation. The forces currently actioning war crimes and genocide upon the people of Gaza on behalf of the Israeli government. This must not be allowed to continue. Free Palestine 🇵🇸
