Israel/Palestine

(35,961 posts)If you'd read the OP, you'd have noticed that Australia's not offering itself up as a shining moral example, and anyone suggesting it is needs to read more carefully before commenting. The point is that Australia as a country that's had a dark history could give Israel some pointers when it comes to reconciliation, which despite what some seem to think, will involve the goodwill of both Palestinians and Israelis. Yr reaction to that is a bit on the strange side...
Anyway, Australia remembers and acknowledges its past treatment of Aboriginal Australians and there's been reconcilation and a national apology. I wonder what problem you have with that?
