The Labour Party also donates tax payers money to UNWRA, we are contributing to Hamas. Extreme organisations that call for more martyrdom and have a president and leaders that have embezzled billions of dollars in donations. They are billionaires and millionaires whilst claiming poverty and victim mentality.
I think many of us know that when it comes to Labor looking for votes in certain electorates that they are prepared to compromise their principles and do whatever it takes.
Keep asking the real and relevant questions Patterson. After all, the ALP were making the most noise about transparency against us . Different when their own high level powers of perception is flipped back on them , isn't it ? Different when the shoe is on the other foot . Well Australia, what's good for the goose is good for the gander . They need to be practicing what they were obsessively preaching , at our citizens. Patterson keeps those bastards honest .
In July I heard Naser Mashni speak. He lies about many things, including his origins. He claims that the Israeli Defence Forces removed his father at gun point from his village Deir Dibwan in 1948. Of course this is impossible. Deir Dibwan was then under the control of Jordan, not part of Israel. It is presently in the West Bank. Naser can go back there any time he'd like to. But he also loves to declare Israel will not allow him to return to his father's village. APAN is a registered charity. Go figure.
Does whats been stated, present a threat to political independence or a security threat? Please review article 3 ANZUS TREATY "Parties will consult together, when in the opinion of any of them, territorial integrity, political independence or security is threatened..." ANZUS treaty was perfectly put into practice by G Bush Sept 11 2001, look up Article 5.
Gee we live in democracy here we have freedom of press..our indigenous hard-working progressive our immigration policy so great for building our country...Australia is on way to third world status..these pollies have no idea how to fix it..
Unfortunately the Labour Party is seen as weak by evil actors, both internal and external ,this puts the people of Australia at considerable risk. The Foreign Minister and the Immugration Minister are both totally hopeless and an embarrassment , neither are fit nor competent in their roles or to represent Australia on the world stage . I appreciate James Patterson being the voice of reason .
Actually, china is not a "thousands of years old" civilisation. England, on the other hand, comes close to a thousand years old (1066), and I never experienced racism there despite my all year round tan. I can't say the same about neither Australia nor Ireland
@yolandabrinkman2653 so what China is doing to the wigga people isn't racism? What would you call it then? The word China isn't thousands of years old. But I did say thier civilisation didn't I? What racism did you suffer in australia?
Senator Paterson must be close to burnout. Although he is supposed to serve australian taxpayers he is almost always on SKY instead. He is a senator for Victoria but talks endlessly supporting israel. Someone give this baby faced man a map so he knows that Victorian taxapayers are in australia not 12,000 kms away in the middle east. Do your proper job, mate.
Senator Patterson would be better served not trying to make political points from a tragedy. There is plenty of fault on both sides, but the dullards that respond below are to cognitively impaired to see that.
Despite the positive influence that Jews brought to the places where they lived, more than 850,000 Jews were forced to leave their homes in Egypt, Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Yemen, Libya, Morocco, and several other Arab countries in the 20 years that followed the Arab-Israeli war of 1948. Another major forced migration took place from Iran in 1979-80, following the Iranian Revolution and the collapse of the shah’s regime, adding 70,000 more Jewish refugees to this number.
@pacnbeans You couldn’t be further from the truth with that comment. The existence of Israel and the history of the Jews for over 3500 years has remained 💯 % true.
The people of Israel are still being attacked every day every hour from hamas and hezbolla because of Netanyahu's ridiculous decisions to continue destruction and not accept a peace deal to allow the 100 + hostages to be released! Even the good people of Israel have had enough and want the air raid sirens to stop !
