Scummo to leave Straya half-pregnant on Jerusalem

Via The Australian:

The Morrison government is expect­ed to formally recognise Jerusalem as Israel’s legitimate capital following a cabinet meeting today, but may delay the ­relocation of Australia’s embassy from Tel Aviv.

Senior government sources have confirmed a final decision was made by cabinet’s national securi­ty committee last night.

It is believed the option favoured by several cabinet ministers was a formal recognition of Jerusalem and a commitment to move the embassy at a later stage.

This is totally destructive to the Australian national interest, pandering to the biases of the Jewish lobby.

Labor should erase all of it the moment it wins power.
