Jordonsteele You mean, like how they listened to US over the death penalty we agonised over as a nation re Andrew and Myuran?

Jordonsteele We don't tell them what to do. They should bugger off

Jordonsteele Dear Jordan, You are an alarm bell. Bye

Jordonsteele It would be best to tell the Indonesians that we don’t have any immediate plan but in any event we don’t go the kind of deal they want. If they want to do trade then that’s up to them. Otherwise fuckem....

Jordonsteele Are you sure. Utter lunacy. We are a sovereign nation. You would cave in to blackmail?

Jordonsteele It is wiser to tell them to mind their own bloody business!! Stick to screwing up Indonesia, what Australia decides to do is none of Indonesia's business!

Jordonsteele It was a dumbass thing for Morrison to suggest in the first place. Good luck skirting around it now.

Jordonsteele I going to pretend Labor wanted to move the Embassy here for a moment. WHATS WRONG WITH THE OLD ONE? WE SHOULD LOOK AFTER OUR FARMERS FIRST!!!! Am I Right ?

Jordonsteele AUSTRALIA FIRST!!!!!!!

Jordonsteele Personally I think it would be good to look at the comment history re: Israel of many people who are against this move. There is a lot of antisemitism from the Left disguised as actual concern.

Jordonsteele Jordan apparently thinks that it's fine for Indonesia to have a say in what is entirely a decision of the Australian government. Moving our embassy in no way changes who we are or how we deal with Indonesia. Also you comments re Trump: no, it is not only the US who moved.

Jordonsteele Hate cowards

Jordonsteele Tell Indonesia to bugga off! We don’t tell them how to run their country!

Jordonsteele I support Jordan's good work engaging people with disabilities in political debate, but his Green-partisanship and promotion of anti-sematism is incongruent with the basic tenants of dignity for all persons. It's a bad idea and a misrepresentation of PwDs, his core constituent.

Jordonsteele All this international diplomatic commotion caused by a cheap politician pulling a cheap stunt in a vain effort to win cheap votes in an Australian by-election. Cheap is as cheap does...

Jordonsteele Yeah, key regional neighbours who receive shitloads of money from AUSTRALIA!!!!! 🖕🏻

What?! So the Greens want us to take Foreign policy advice from Indonesia where they persecute homosexuals and other minorities? Sorry, but I’d prefer to take advice two of the Worlds greatest democracies and parliamentary/constitutional republics being Israel 🇮🇱 and the USA 🇺🇸

Jordonsteele Go on The Drum at their Far Left ABC. It's more your forte.

Jordonsteele Jordan, it would be wise to do a little more thinking before sharing your opinions. We'll make decisions about embassies, not Jakarta.

Jordonsteele It would be wise to listen to a close neighbor that we have been paying off so they don’t attack us for years - Steele

Jordonsteele and they talk about SkyNews after dark....sheeshh

Jordonsteele How about pull out of israel all together they are no allies

Jordonsteele The notion of Indonesia protesting on behalf of the Palestinians shows the hypocrisy of the Islamic world on the issue. Comparatively wealthy & powerful Islamic countries have not used their influence to urge the Palestinians toward peace with Israel, they prefer the status quo.

Jordonsteele They won't sign a free trade deal if we move our embassy? How about we don't give Kemlu_RI the 300 odd million a year ScottMorrisonMP. They might change their mind.

Jordonsteele I repeat tell Indonesia’s Islamic ideologically driven agenda to go and get fucked. This is Australia and we will move the embassy

Jordonsteele Fake news

Jordonsteele Cut there aid then. That will show them

Jordonsteele Americans are Australian Allies.. Indonesia has Islamic Law.. There's a reason for common sense here.

Jordonsteele One of the key regional parasites cut funding, spend on homeless, hungry Aussies

Jordonsteele They aren't a key trading partner - they're a key charity recipient. Cut off their aid and watch them capitulate.

Jordonsteele Yeah right. My neighbors are child abusers..Not listening to a thing they say... Now move The Australian Embassy to Jerusalem..🎼Islamic Law has No rule in Australian Government..🇦🇺

Jordonsteele Its important to remember the Greens tried to force Steele to give up his seat back to the original incumbent after the dual citizenship fiasco. He is in way over his head, and will parrot whatever the Greens powerbrokers want him to say.

Jordonsteele When Greens senators think Australia’s foreign policy should be dictated by countries who still flog gays in public.

Jordonsteele I'm not sure young Jordon wants to say that in Mel Ports (where there is a significant Jewish pop. & the Greens are in a 3 way tussle in a marginal seat)..

Jordonsteele So now the prome minister will back down to an Islamic country...more of our Judeo Christian values thrown in the gutter .. along with the Bibles 10 commandments.. leaving the Embassy in palestine...is like the St Kilda football grd in st klda and thier admin in collingwood.

Jordonsteele Why is it any of Indonesia’s concerns where Australia puts its embassy in Israel? It’s nothing to do with Indonesia.

Jordonsteele If Indonesia gets to dictate to Australia on this, WHAT Else will they dictate for Australia to do.

Jordonsteele And we should not do any agreement with the Indonesians until they stop persecuting homosexuals and other minorities. Slightly more relevant than where a building is located, and our embassy should be in Jerusalem whether Indonesia likes it or not. We don’t take dictation by them

Jordonsteele You mean risking our relationship with a key trading and security partner based on a thought bubble Scott Morrison had in the vain hope of saving a few votes in Wentworth is a bad way to run a government....hard to argue. He's not the Prime Muppet for nothing.

Jordonsteele Greens and wisdom are mutually exclusive.

Jordonsteele It would be wise to listen the concerns of Australians,Would it not...You do represent them don`t you Jordan?

Free trade agreement and Israeli embassy move not 'mutually exclusive' | Sky News AustraliaTreasurer Josh Frydenberg insists the government can still bring the Free Trade Agreement to conclusion, telling Sky News the trade deal and the issue of Australia’s embassy in Israel are not ‘mutually exclusive’. \n\nThe trade deal has stalled once again after the Indonesia Trade Minister Enggartiasto Lukita confirmed the agreement would not progress while Australia is considering moving its Israeli embassy. \n\nThe Treasurer says while Australia values its relationship with Indonesia, it’s imperative the government does not have its foreign policy dictated to by other nations. \n\nImage: Kym Smith \u002F News Corp Australia\n\n\n\n\n\n JoshFrydenberg Oh Phuleeze, Simon Birmingham was useless as the Eucation Minister. Now that he's the Trade Minister, the FTA with Indo will be a flop. Birmo would have more success, if he met with Jocko's brother, Whacko Mi Diddleo. JoshFrydenberg In what universe is the Indonesian government going to sell out the faith of their populace for a free trade deal? Because the potentially devastating consequences to Indonesian society is totally worth it right? JoshFrydenberg There’s no backbone in this government and free trade agreements only help big companies not average person on street and lets foreign workers in seen of them has not helped out one bit your payee

Indonesians assured Israeli embassy move is unlikely | Sky News AustraliaPrime Minister Scott Morrison has reportedly privately assured Indonesian officials there is very little chance of Australia moving its Israeli embassy to Jerusalem. \n\nFairfax Media reports Indonesian ministers have been told there is ‘less than five per cent chance’ of an embassy move, following a protest from the Muslim-majority nation that threatened the livelihood of a $16.5 billion free trade deal. \n\nThe assurance signals the Prime Minister could restore the government’s previous stance on Israel. \n\nImage: Graham Crouch \u002F News Corp Australia ScottMorrisonMP ... furthering a Wentworth solution Time to move on ScottMorrisonMP What a self inflicted mess.

John Howard supports Israeli embassy move | Sky News AustraliaFormer Prime Minister John Howard is strongly backing Scott Morrison's interest in moving Australia's embassy in Israel. \n\nMr Howard has told The Australian that the government must establish its own foreign policy following criticism from international partners. \n\nIndonesia's Trade Minister has signalled the nation will not sign a Free Trade Agreement with Australia while Malaysia's Prime Minister has warned a global terror threat could occur if the embassy were to be moved from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. \n\nImage: Hollie Adams \u002F News Corp Australia I don’t get this push for Israel at all cost is it because a lot of the different australian prime ministers mentors have been Jewish ? Who cares what this old goat thinks, moving it is illegal, full stop, it's not up to debate There are more non-Jews support this move than Jews. The radical Christian right .... American evangelism ... is running this country and they're just plain dangerous. Aussies have no idea what they believe or what they're capable of. They cost the taxpayer billions.
