AUSTRALIA REJECTS ISRAEL BY REJECTING JERUSALEM – The Leftist government of Australia has decided to end the former “conservative” government’s policy of recognizing Jerusalem (specifically “West Jerusalem”) as the capital of Israel, a decision that was made after then-US-President Donald Trump decided to do so first.

Australia said Tuesday it would no longer recognize West Jerusalem as Israel’s capital, reversing a contentious decision by the previous conservative government.
Foreign Minister Penny Wong said the city’s status should be decided through peace talks between Israelis and Palestinians, and not through unilateral decisions.
“We will not support an approach that undermines” a two-state solution, she said, adding: “Australia’s embassy has always been, and remains, in Tel Aviv”.
