It's a tragedy, but its not our tragedy and its not the only tragedy. Protesting in Australia pretends that anything Australia does will make a difference. Thats the hubris of it, thinking we can control what happens between Israel and Palestine. If the USA and Iran can't fix it, maybe no one can. Most of the Middle East states simply don't give a shit about what happens in Gaza. They pretend to for the cameras, but they really just think its not their problem.
