Paul Heywood - Smith gets applause from the League of Rights

Birds of a feather flock together...

The latest Australian league of Rights newsletter, "On Target" ALOR - OnTarget Vol.39 - No.20 supports Paul Heywood - Smith's views on Israel....

"Terrorism," he says, "has resulted from 50 years of injustice. Palestine brought us September 11 and Bali." Australian political parties must state their positions - and why: He insists Australian political parties should be forced to state where they tand on this crucial foreign policy issue. "Israel," he says, "cannot be allowed to just react. It must act. It must dismantle the settlements, starting with those built since 2001."

On Target readers could take a leaf out of Mr. Heywood-Smith's book and ask their own federal representatives the same questions he poses: · Do they support the reation of a Palestinian state on the 1967 boundaries? · If not, what do they support and why? · And what should Australia do to force compliance with the 'road map' to peace drawn up by an international diplomatic team?

(My own emphasis added. Sandgroper)

We first reported on the views of the QC, who is also Chairman of the Australian Friends of Palestine Association, on Tuesday 10th May.
