Unilateral attack on Iran must be condemned – Greens
“Trump and Netanyahu’s unilateral attack on Iran must be condemned as an illegal and unprovoked act against the people of the region and any genuine pathway to peace” Green Party Co-Leader Marama Davidson says.
“This latest escalation in aggression is part of a decades’ long pattern of behaviour of the US dragging the region into more wars, violence, and bloodshed.
“The wider region has immediately been drawn into this violence, with hundreds reported dead in only a single day. The idea that it’s okay to bomb other countries because you don’t like their leader is reprehensible.
“The Prime Minister Luxon’s failure to condemn Trump’s illegal actions again demonstrates his lack of leadership or moral courage, and willingness to act against New Zealander’s values.
“New Zealander’s deserve better than this. Our voice is powerful on the international stage. The Green Party urges Luxon’s Government to condemn illegal warmongering, and unreservedly advocate for diplomacy, international law, and peace for the Iranian people.”
Marama is a disappointment. Not as bad as Chloe though. The Greens need to focus on climate change and the environment. I would support that. Instead they morpnically and thoughtlessly throw their hat in the ring on the side of the Ayatollah’s regime that has caused mayhem in the region (and world) and literally murdered 35000 innocent Iranian protesters in the last month. The Greens should rename themselves The Mullah Proxy Party to leave room for a real Greens Party to emerge.
