According to the march organisers, the objective is to stop the Palestinian genocide by forcing the Australian Government to take action against Israel.


What action would that be ?Military, Economic, expelling their embassy staff?

Who knows?

Recognising the Palestinian state and condemning the genocide is probably as good as it will get.

Calls to cut military equipment trade probably won’t be heeded because many multinational military projects rely on input from Israeli industries.

I think its working then.  The stance of the Aussie government has changed significantly since it started. 

Ultimately its always a mixed bag of why people do these things.  I think its generally OK for it to continue.  Particularly when its a peaceful protest march.  Otherwise people who feel like doing something, might do something less peaceful as an alternative.

The Australian Government’s stance is firmly in lockstep with that of most similar-minded nations.
