Australia summons Israeli envoy to protest settlement plans.
In happier days. PM of Australia Julia Gillard and Benjemin Netanyahu.
Australia summoned the Israeli ambassador on Tuesday to protest against Israel’s decision to expand Jewish settlements in east Jerusalem and the West Bank and withhold tax revenue from the Palestinian Authority.
Australia’s move followed similar actions in Europe including Spain, France, Britain, Sweden and Denmark in the wake of the Palestinians winning de facto UN recognition of statehood
Australia has long opposed all settlement activity,” Foreign Minister Bob Carr said in a statement after Israeli Ambassador Yuval Rotem’s meeting with senior Australian officials. “Such activity threatens the viability of a two-state solution without which there will never be security in Israel.”
Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu pushed back on Monday against intense international pressure to reconsider plans for building 3,000 housing units in east Jerusalem and the West Bank and stepping up the planning of the controversial E1 site, saying no one should expect Israel to sit on its hands in light of Palestinian unilateral steps at the UN.
The Palestinian unilateral moves at the UN are a blatant and fundamental violation of agreements to which the international community was a guarantor,” the official said. “No one should be surprised that Israel is not sitting with its arms folded in response to the unilateral Palestinian steps.”

My comment:
There is an ongoing global diplomatic war, to delegitimize Israel.
The idea is that when Israel is condemned for blocking “World peace”, the International community needs to punish her.
You might get surprised, that the Nations quickly will agree to take military actions against Israel. Like enforcing a “no fly zone” over Gaza, to “secure” the present “cease fire”. NATO will be used to secure that the Islamic terrorists in the Hamas can rearm and get ready for the final battle for Zion.
The military built up up forces to fight Israel, will stand in radical contrast to the World’s handling of a nuclear Iran. While Israel must be punished, the Global elite dragging their fetes, not even willing topper imply economical sanctions of Iran.
While the Ayatollah is permitted to build the ultimate bomb to force the Wold to live in submission to Sharia laws, building of Jewish schools, kindergartens and houses as branded as the real threat to “world peace”.
This evil against the Jewish people is as old as the election of the Jews as God’s chosen people. And it will never end before it will be abruptly abolished by the return of the Messiah.
Please stand of up for Israel. Please bless the Jewish people.

Perhaps the Welsh Prime Minister of Australia may like to stop building on land belonging to the Aborigine people of Australia after all they were there first before we took it off them. Another hypocritical leader whom forgets they have skeletons in their own cupboard.
