Demonising Israel - Another Low from Labor

You’d think with all the chaos in the world, our government might spend its time on issues that actually matter to Australians — energy prices, housing, cost of living. But no. The Albanese Labor government has decided that its moral mission is to demonise Israel.

In a blistering and much-needed critique, Chris Kenny lays bare the hypocrisy and intellectual laziness of Labor’s latest foreign policy posture in his Sky News video, “Hamas propaganda’: Demonisation of Israel ‘sinking to new depths’”.

Let’s be clear. Israel has been under attack. Again. Yet the Labor government seems more concerned about how Israel defends itself than why it has to.

Kenny rightly points out the disgraceful double standard: Israel is blamed for defending its citizens, while the actual perpetrators of violence — Hamas — are given a pass. Worse, their propaganda is parroted by Western media and politicians who should know better.

Australia once stood firmly with democratic allies. Now, under Labor, we wobble toward the woke brigade — more worried about “optics” than facts. This isn’t a balanced foreign policy. It’s appeasement masquerading as principle.

And it sends a dangerous message: terrorism might work if you spin it right.

The truth is, moral clarity matters. And on this, Labor is failing badly.
