Abstract
The bold display of Iranian military drones over the holy city of Jerusalem symbolises the weakness of the Albanese government. Following Foreign Minister Penny Wong’s weak stance on terrorism, she is complicit in the diplomatic climate that emboldened a direct attack on Israel where any counterattack is unlikely to include support from Israel’s allies. Following one of Australia’s most prosperous periods in history, the Albanese government has managed to increase the cost of living and reduce our sense of security in less than one political term. Further, our government has divided us along cultural lines and perpetuated a self-hating attitude towards all things that are good about our liberal democratic and Judaeo-Christian traditions and heritage. Israel is part and parcel of our heritage, both political and religious. The attack on Jerusalem is an attack on our very traditions.
