yeah great, when's the election?

What a moron. Need to fix Australia before trying to promote himself on the world stage. At the G20 he proved he was another grinning court jester just like Abott when meeting real leaders.

That's if you can get a few serious palestinians to the negotiating table. Good luck with that

ScoMo decision that infuriated our neighboursThe Australian government’s decision to recognise West Jerusalem as the capital of Israel has sparked fury across the world. Across the Muslim world maybe, but seriously, the capital of Israel is Jerusalem. It was 3000 years ago and that is a couple of thousand years before the foundation of Islam in the first place. No fury from sensible nations. And still this fool wont change his mind. What a political joke.

Australia won’t move embassy in Israel but ‘recognises’ West JerusalemAustralia recognises West Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and is keeping embassy it’s in Tel Aviv in accordance with the wishes of Israel. ScottMorrisonMP This is not a backdown. He thinks he is being cute but people can see right thru him. He is more transparent than glass ScottMorrisonMP As we know was never happening. ScottMorrisonMP Great photo. Australia's own Ernst Kaltenbrunner is probably the only one to benefit when Australia is actually attacked by terrorists for acting against its national interests on West Jerusalem. Stupid decision from a stupid man in a stupid party.

Israeli embassy will be moved 'when practical' | Sky News AustraliaPrime Minister Scott Morrison has officially recognised West Jerusalem as the capital of Israel in a major speech on international relations today. \n\nMr Morrison says Australia is committed to a two-state solution and ‘we look forward to moving the embassy to West Jerusalem when practical’. \n\nWhile the Australian embassy will not immediately be moved from Tel Aviv, Mr Morrison committed to establishing a trade and defence office in West Jerusalem now. \n\nImage: News Corp Australia \n\n ScottMorrisonMP Well said Scott. Now move the Embassy. ScottMorrisonMP Downside for Australia in that it will probably damage our exports. Where's the upside? ScottMorrisonMP There will never be peace between Israel and Palestine. There will always be illegally occupied territories. There will always be Arab children indoctrinated with hate from the earliest age. The history is too long, the grievances too deep.
