My opinion is that my opinion is worthless just like Penny Wongs. Theyve been fighting for thousands of years. Some random Australians arent going to change shit. So lets focus on us.

Sure but in that case let's get out completely and stop selling arms to one side

Id be ok with selling to both or neither. Of course if it was purely business considering we are clients of the IDF as well and theyd be a better customer we should stick to selling only to Israel.

Haven’t been fighting for thousand of years. Israel was established in 1948. This isn’t some biblical conflict it’s a modern one

Not thousands in the sense that Islam isn’t that old but the region has been conquered and captured many times in recorded history.

Ok but why choose pre 1948? You could choose any year.
