‘Hamas is the cause': PM slammed for ‘one-sided' criticisms of Israel
Former Howard government minister Peter McGauran has labelled Prime Minister Anthony Albanese as acting 'one-sided' for his attacks on Israel in its war against Hamas. Mr Albanese called on Israel to "comply immediately with its obligations under international law" as Gaza is "in the grip of a humanitarian catastrophe". 'The problem for Prime Minister Albanese, as it is for every Western leader, is that Hamas is the cause of the ongoing suffering of the Palestinian people,' Mr McGauran told Sky News Australia. 'To criticise Israel or to punish Israel without correspondingly condemning Hamas in the same terms, I think is one-sided.'
