On the eve of Winston Peters’ trip to meet US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, the Palestine Solidarity Network Aotearoa is reminding our Foreign Minister that New Zealand upholds a rules-based international system.
“We want Mr Peters to remind the US administration that the rules apply to Gaza as well” says PSNA Co-chair John Minto. “Mr Peters should be suggesting to the US that it should stand up to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu”
“The US helped broker a ceasefire and hostage exchange deal between Israel and Hamas less than two months ago. Key to that deal was Israel allowing in humanitarian aid”
“Eleven days ago, Israel shut off all food, water and fuel entering Gaza, and now it’s just turned off the electricity, which is vital to desalinate salt water and pump water supplies”
“More Palestinians will die of starvation and thirst in Gaza, just so Israel can try to avoid a permanent ceasefire and withdrawal of Israeli troops from Gaza which are part of stage two of the January ceasefire agreement”
Minto says Trump has publicly shown his differences with Ukraine President Zelensky.
“But he can’t seem to do the same with Israel and the Israeli lobby. He even puts up with Israel complaining when the US has direct negotiations with Hamas to release American hostages.”
Minto says Trump’s own Gaza plan is unacceptable too.
“Trump is right. Gaza is in ruins. But if some people need to move as a result, then they should be allowed to go back to their homes in Israel. New Zealand votes every year in the United Nations for this to happen. It’s time to put it into practice.”
PSNA has just posted an open letter to Winton Peters on its website, inviting people to add their names to a demand that Peters condemn Israel’s humanitarian blockade on Gaza and the US/Israel plan to ethnically cleanse the territory of its Palestinian population.”

Winston Peters needs no advice from the PSNA, a group of professional protesters.
Winstone will do fuck all, he has already shown he is coward and arse kisser if Australia get tariffs, then so will we no matter what or who goes there.
Bob the first – Calling them “Protesters” is being kind, how about Professional Whingers…?
Here’s some advice for you bob. John Minto is a fucking amazing human being. You, are not, just an fyi so my advice to you then is to fuck off.
Plus 1 to that.
Golly gosh I’ve got you chaps on the run.
Wonderful.
You’re a complete idiot, mate. The Gaza Genocide is our Holocaust. And you can’t see it. Congrats on that.
Minto was right about South Africa and now. A great person.
Must be hard getting up each morning Mr Minto knowing your open letters and protests do not move/change Israel’s resolve and tactics of killing the Hamas terrorists.
Einstein’s quote about repeating the same thing hoping for a different outcome was written with you in mind.
At least he has the satisfaction of knowing that it annoys you and provokes you to demonstrate just how simple you are with your pointless false comments on every article he writes. Israel are doomed and it’s just a matter of time before they implode.
Bonnie, there’s no evidence of Israel being doomed. Looking at Gaza, the Palestinians are unfortunately living doomsday now.
That’s why we walk by faith and not sight. While their ultimate fall will be in the future it is still certain.
One thing is certain. Israel will long outlast you.
Your Crusader state will be gone soon enough. Anti-semitic me. You’re a fool, useful at best. How about persuade we rational. Have you noticed you can’t?
Keep the pay, or if you’re that level of daft, ffs go to Israel.
I believe that I will receive eternal life, Israel rejects the source of that life so you are wrong again, at least you are consistent.
And here’s bob the firsts nom de plume.
Here’s some advice for you Im right but then you may have read this elsewhere. John Minto is a fucking amazing human being. You, are not, just an fyi so my advice to you then is to fuck off with dick head bob but then you are the same thing aren’t you?
You can shove your letter up your arse.
Yeah about those “terrorists ” JP has an article today about arrested terrorists their evidence was 2 gas canisters for cooking which equates to “bomb making” fuck Israel.
Winstone will do fuck all, he has already shown he is coward and arse kisser if Australia get tariffs, then so will we, no matter what or who goes there.

John – Can we sign an Open Letter to “Demand NZ to stand up to Hamas, and its’ killers”…?
But but…aren’t Hamas the good guys?
Krautet Haus – Well put…
Germans suffered because of Hitler Palestinians are hurting due to Hamas . While the Israelis are dishing out a hard reply they are fighting for their lives . I hope an answer can be worked out but it will not b3 easy.
israel is committing unspeakable atrocities against civilians including kids and animals who were living on their own lands. israel has written its reputation in granite for eternity. There’s no coming back from that. israel has, in effect, foisted itself by its own horrible petard. What the israelis are doing will never be forgotten so consequently the israelis specifically and the Jews globally, whether innocent or not, will never know peace.
I think not the Jews — we’re humane enough for that and recognize Jews are separate to Zionism. The best opponents of Israel are Jews.
The other angle is everything is before the soon oncoming tsunami of climate change extinction of the species. Maybe we’ll get out from under by some means, but it’s a maybe. Getting to this wall should be the fundamental guide to us not this nonsense of we are going on forever.
Peters wont do fuck all except bend over and take one .Yes mister president anything you say mister president we will remove all sanctions against russia and gie all out support to the genocide in Gazza .
So while the USA is trying to take over the world the people of Gazza are being staved to death .Note we have not heard a word this week about gazza due to the tarrif smoke screen to cover up what is happening .
The Racing Minister, always for Racing, stopped dog racing because he cared about dogs. Not so personal about humans.
yes the two faced old cunt .Shutting the dogs down is him pandering to his big doners from the galloping side of racing who poured a million into getting this coalition of cunts elected .
Criminals, Illegality, Law Breaking … and why supporters of Zionist crimes and criminals hate MFaT.,,, as well as hating Palestine Solidarity Network Aotearoa ,,,, or anyone else who brings up International Law and Israels non stop breaking of it.
So Good on John Minto for keeping a focus on international law and rules ,,,,
What do you call a person who says — ‘You can shove the laws up your arse’,, apart from ‘Criminal’.
Love Criminals, Illegality & Law Breaking?,,,, then Love Israel.
“it’s much easier to prove that a law has been broken than it is to prove that an action is unambiguously and unanimously regarded as unjust”
“If you’re talking about the law it’s incredibly clear you know,,, if the legal Frameworks that the world claims to uphold,,, International Law,,,, if it were to be enforced on Israel the way that it’s enforced against other nations then there would be no ambiguity whatsoever about this situation,,
,,, this isn’t speculation, this is not opinion, this is simply what the law states, this is what the law dictates , so for example there would never even be any question about an immediate ceasefire in Gaza. In fact an unconditional ceasefire would have been imposed on Israel under the Fourth Geneva Convention long ago.
Collective punishment, indiscriminate bombing, and targeting of civilians, these are war crimes … Meanwhile this is exactly how Israel has conducted its military campaign in Gaza,, that’s literally their approach.
Entire families wiped out, hospitals bombed, Food Supplies blocked, and so on,, these are not just tragedies, these are crimes under the law and it’s not ambiguous and it’s not open to debate…
it’s literally what they have been doing and of course by law the occupation itself is illegal.
United Nations security Council resolution 242 demanded that Israel withdraw from the territories that it occupied in 1967,,, that was nearly 60 years ago”. 60 years of law breaking…
The occupation is illegal under article 49 of the Fourth Geneva Convention which explicitly prohibits and any occupying power from transferring its own population into the occupied land. Every settlement in the West Bank and East Jerusalem is a war crime,,, this is not an opinion, it’s the Law.
Our MFaT referencing international law (as they should), caused local Zionists to lose their shit ,,,, and report MFaT to our police!# :0 …
,,,, I’m sure there’s a joke in that ‘complaint’ … Criminals gone Woke in a Zionberg Karenist way ,,, how dare MFaT mention Laws and Israel,,,,They Demand to speak to the police chief,,,
Don’t force them to get their good friend Stephen Rainbow involved … :0
*********************************************************
This is a old video exposing the Human shield lie ,,,, https://www.bitchute.com/video/MksDsWs30GvR
“Dr Cumin attempted to defend Israeli brutality against unarmed Palestinian protestors in the Great March of Return protests by saying Palestinians engaged in
“…violent riots on the border with Israel to which they bring children to use as human shields. The quote of Israel’s first woman Prime Minister sums the situation up beautifully. Golda Meir said: “there can only be peace when the Arabs start to love their children more than they hate us””
The above video shows David Cummin is a bald faced Liar …… He’s a Zionist fraud telling ‘human shield’ lies ,,, The lethal and maiming violence shown above,,, from Israel only ,,, is a war crime.
Cummins lies are the worst alibis for Israel criminally shooting children and civilians….if he did it in court it would be perjury.
Such a shameless libeler and bullshitter should be sacked from Auckland Uni ….
The only thing he seems to dislike about Israel shooting Palestinian kids is the reputational damage to Israel … Why else does he lie ?
Hi Benny, it’s Winnie from New Zealand i tried calling you at home in Poland first but you weren’t there and had changed your name so I called Israel.
Hey listen buddy about your cousins the Palestinians, i know the Zionist party slogan is “let my people go” but hey do you think the 687 dead Palestinian Men, woman and Children’s bodies held in Israel in the “Graves of numbers” has any bearing? Just saying.
Sorry about October the 7th, at least it wasn’t as bad as 1948 in relation to massacres. I’m wondering is it true the first car or letter bombs were Israeli?
Condolences on the Bibas children those red headed little rascals, any truth to the well documented stories that Israel bombed them to death and Hamas offered to release their bodies almost immediately but you declined? It was kind of weird how you declined then conducted a mass media campaigned to get them released alive despite knowing you killed them only to accuse Hamas of “killing them with their bare hands”.
Sorry we cant send you military support but our cupboards are bare, how about we just pass a law with your definition of antisemitism as a way of showing support? NZ doesn’t have a problem with antisemitism but im sure the 6 million kiwis wont mind losing their rights to free speech. Something about Voltaire comes to mind but it escapes me.
The detention of Mahmoud Khalil in the US is quickly turning into a George Floyd moment – the US is going to burn over this.
There not bullies John, they are genocidal Zionist mass murders!
Peters will file the letter with all the others…in the trash. He just gave Swarbrick a good mauling in the House over her demonising of Israel and support for genocidal terrorists. Rubio, of course, is a passionate supporter of the Jewish state. Long live Israel.
