"History suggests we should be sceptical of peace plans without justice, peace at any price, and peace imposed by outsiders without Palestinian consent." So many red flags, says Ben Saul. Common themes are ignoring Palestinian rights and Israeli accountability.

At the National Press Club this week, Ben Saul argued that Australia is more than a modest middle power and must step up on Palestine.

The onus is on the party committing genocide to stop committing genocide. The onus is not on the victims of the genocide to sign agreements in the hope of saving themselves from the genocide. This is obvious to anyone who isn't a psychopath.

The Labor Government allowed the Israeli Government to whitewash the killing of Australian aid worker Zomi Frankcom with a sham investigation. Zomi’s killers continue to walk free, and not a single person or entity has been sanctioned for her killing. The time for impunity is over.

Just last week, the Foreign Minister said we must protect aid workers who deliver the food, water and medicine that civilians need to survive. Now is the test of whether she actually meant it, or whether it was just more of the empty words we have come to expect from this Government.
