Israeli ambassador to Australia Amir Maimon has accused Australian Labor Party prime minister Anthony Albanese of contradictory messages over the war with Hamas, declared the Jewish homeland’s fight against terrorism has been held to a different standard from Australia’s own operations in Afghanistan and lamented that his citizens did not feel secure in this country, in a piece published in the Australian newspaper over Christmas and at the National Press Club of Australia.

In an interview called “The Agony of an Ally: Anthony Albanese’s Gaza Contraditions” by Alexi Demetriadi published in the Australian on December 25, Maimon says:

“The Prime Minister understands that Hamas cannot be part of future governance in Gaza… yet supports a ceasefire. These are contradictory positions.”
