The UK has condemned #Isreali actions in the #GazaStrip as #EthnicCleansing. Richard Murphy claims, presumably as the UK Govt would, that this is not calling what’s happening in Gaze a #Genocide. My Q is, when is ethnic cleansing not genocide?
When the ethnic cleansing is not 100% of the population? When the killings of an ethnic community does not amout to 100% of the its numbers? By this reckoning, the Holocaust was ethnic cleansing then… How abhorant is this play on words when faced with the resolute and calculated mass killings committed by #Israel. I also welcome the lastest condemnations (from twelve coutries… so far) of Isreal, its govt and the military. Sanctions do not go far enough. Now if only #TimidAlbo would step up…“It is very welcome that the UK government has made some important distinctions.
It has said that criticising anyone for being Jewish is unacceptable. At the same time, it has made entirely clear its view that criticising the Israeli government is not an act of antisemitism, because, of course, it never could have been.
It has made clear that Israeli occupation of the West Bank is illegal, which as a matter of fact, it is.
It has said that Israeli action in Gaza amounts to ethnic cleansing, because that is what it is and what it has been from the outset.
It has not yet said that the Israeli government has committed genocide, but it has made very clear that it is inclined to think that is the case and that it would support legal action to confirm that opinion.
These are major restatements of UK foreign policy, and without exception they are welcome.”

@jhaue
It’s not just the UK, it’s twelve other countries including France!
#AlboPM is surely captive of the #ZionistLobby. Shame on you #Anthony. -
#RachelWithers as sharp as ever: “There’s another lesson in this for the PM, who remains so very concerned about what News Corp says. You can’t appease the top end of town. And you can’t convince conservatives that the Labor Party is not “anti-wealth” — not if you want to engage in serious structural reform that will help regular Australians “get ahead” in an era of increasingly “entrenched privilege”.

Greg Jericho (in The Guardian) concludes with:
“Right now, the government is choosing to deliver $50bn a year to the richest 10% of Australians for no real, discernible public good that benefits the nation. Maybe that deserves a bit more attention than we give predictions of budget estimates which will soon be forgotten and likely be wrong.”
Come on #AlboPM what are you waiting for? Christmas?
I guess I have now confessed my deep regards for #GregJericho’s economic nous. Ah well, he deserves it. He is in the same basket as #AlanKohler in good company.
