Let’s get a few things straight. It’s not us. It’s you. Australia, and Australians, are really easy to get along with. But we don’t take gaslighting well, at all. Including attacks on Australia for fulfilling the most rudimentary duty to hold any country accountable to international law. You, the perpetrator, are wholly responsible for the impacts of your crimes. As a wanted war criminal leading a state alleged of genocide, the deliberate starvation of innocent children, found guilty of racial segregation and apartheid over many decades and of systematic attacks on the international legal system that we rely on. Our obligations to the international court extend to not promoting or supporting genocide or the discriminatory practices of apartheid, in any way. This includes the refusal of entry to any official, individual or group guilty of incitement, or supportive of ethnic cleansing or apartheid. So says the International Court of Justice. Whilst we are legally required to do more, Australians are, in fact, rightly taking pride in finally taking a stand against genocide, and apartheid. The surest way to secure a visa to Australia, and our famously loyal and valued friendship as a country and people is not to perpetrate, support, fund or promote genocide, ethnic cleansing, deliberate starvation or apartheid. Hope that helps.
