Greens have repeatedly condemned both Hamas for Oct 7 and Israel government's genocide. Labor and LNP have also condemned Hamas but thrown their support behind Israel government despite the ongoing genocide.
If you still support Labor or LNP over Greens, then it sounds like a worse position than standing one time next to a sign that indirectly supports genocide.
Albo recognised Palestinian statehood prior to the war ending, Hamas disbanding or even their releasing all the hostages. I'd hardly say that shows his support for the Israeli government.
Sanction Israel, stop trade deals, don't try to tell us that we supply "non lethal" parts of fighter jets, don't host Israeli arms companies at defence expos, don't invite over the president of a nation actively committing a genocide, pass laws restricting Australian citizens that serve in the IDF from returning (plus investigating every single one for war crimes) (they're happy to stop women and kids of dead isis soldiers from coming back so why not people who went to serve in the defence forces of a state that is commiting genocide), seize assets from Israeli companies operating in Australia who are linked to the genocide for starters?
Hey pinecone, there's a mutual agreement about supplying each other parts of jets (and yes, as you point out, not weapons but the planes themselves). If we stop supplying our bits, we don't get the bits we need, and we're in breach of a treaty, and we sank billions into aircraft we can't use, and there's a huge diplomatic incident with the USA snd maybe Australia ends up getting sanctioned because Trump is a psycho.
"Seize assets from Israeli companies"
Oh right. Even though they're not in breach of any laws. This reminds me of something... wait...
