I bring up the issue of the slaughter of Palestinians in Gaza. We need to accept the disparity between a huge military power like Israel and the Palestinian people. We have also had the de factoannexation and stealing of Palestinian land. We can only consider this a continuity of a plan for Israeli expansion. What will the Government propose in relation to our seat on the UN Security Council and in relation to the EU, which took action on the Crimea? How will we use our relationship with Joe Biden? We need a change in how the administration in America operates. This needs to be done. South African apartheid was broken by international solidarity and sanctions. It became a pariah state. This needs to be done for Israel and everything has to be on the agenda, even consideration in relation to the ambassador here.
