Dutton’s pro-Israel stance is just bonus

Our focus should be on what matters most to us as Australians as at the end of the day, Australia no matter which political party is in government, does not really matter when it comes to things pertaining to Israel. Yes, I found it repugnant to see the Greens being so anti-Israel, and the Teals supporting funding UNRWA, the Labours turnabout when voting at the UN as well as the blatant bias shown by Penny Wong and the lame response from the PM with the incessant anti Israel/pro Palestinian protests, but my vote is for Peter Dutton and the Liberal Party because of the financial mess that we have been left with after just 3 years of the ALP and what they have done with the skyrocketing cost of living and persistent pursuit of renewables to the exclusion of other options such as nuclear and gas. The fact that Peter Dutton is pro Israel just happens to be an added bonus.
