While Winston Peters hobnobs with the US the people of New Zealand are standing up against the Israel/US slaughter of Palestinians
After 90 days of indiscriminate killing of Palestinians in Gaza, Foreign Minister Winston Peters has met online today with US Secretary of State Antony Blinken.
While we know the war on Palestine was discussed, we also know Winston Peters would not have breathed a word of criticism of the US or Israel because Mr Peters has refused to condemn anything Israel has done – although he has been keen to repeatedly condemn the killing of Israelis.
This anti-Palestinian racism also runs through the US-instigated statement condemning attacks on Israeli shipping in the Red Sea which New Zealand has signed up to despite the statement’s refusal to acknowledge the reason for the attacks – Israel’s genocide against Palestinians in Gaza!
The far-right Israeli government has now announced it wants to send the Palestinian people of Gaza to the Congo. This is the ongoing plan for the ethnic cleansing of Palestine –a process begun by Israeli militias in 1947 and now intending to apply it to Gaza.
Not a word from Winston Peters on any of this shabby, shameful preparation for another Israeli war crime against Palestinians.
New Zealanders will be out across the country again this week in rallies, marches and vigils to call out Israel and the US for their genocide of Palestinians and to call for BDS (Boycotts, Divestment and Sanctions) against the apartheid state of Israel.
Winstone Peters is making a fucken fool of us as a country he is talking about not travelling overseas and said when he does, he will travel by night, fuck is he all there, maybe he has had too much time down the rabbit hole. When Nanaia didn’t travel the shit hit the fan and people were quick to criticize her for not travelling let’s hope Winstone gets the same treatment.
Winstone condescending and nasty attitude to his own people is sickening.
In the past we saw a Winston running more on instinct with a decent team. This time it’s a bellow average NZFirst team and we’ll need to see a more strategic thinker so more piggy backing on U.S. interests amoungst other things for instamce incouraging a larger american enfluence in the South Pacific security and aid. I’m not saying it’s a good or bad stratagy just that it’s a valid play with all things considered.
Personally, I think Winston is showing signs of cognitive decline.
The only people Winston is interested in are his corporate sponsors. To hell with the rest of the world.
I am sure the 6% are of the same persuasion. Just selfish arseholes.
I guess Winston should be having online catch ups with Majorie Taylor Green. They can compare fruit cake recipes. Of course Majorie’s ‘Jewish space laser’ musings may have to be carefully negotiated but I am sure Winnie’s up for some other batshit crazy ideas. After all that’s the currency of the con artist these days.
