Australia Takes a Stand Against Anti-Israel Bias
(Australian Jewish News) Evan Zlatkis - Jewish communal leaders have lauded the Australian government's stance at the UN Human Rights Council (UNHRC), after it was the only country to vote against all five anti-Israel resolutions at the UNHRC's recent session. The UNHRC has a history of systemic bias against Israel, leading the Australian Mission to the UN to blast its "disproportionate focus." "Australia has been consistent in its principled opposition to biased and one-sided resolutions targeting Israel in multilateral forums," the mission said, adding that the resolutions "do nothing to contribute to lasting peace and stability for Israelis and Palestinians."
