Australia to ban human rights abusers? Gimme a break.

Quick question, what's the likelihood of this applying to Israel? None? Gotcha.

Sanctions kill children.

nuh all talks. I dare you to sanction the Americans 🥱

Are we proposing to sanction the United States?

when do we start sanctioning the US then?

So America then?

The wording isn’t accurate if “country” includes innocent people, people can never decide on war yet they have always been victims. So let’s put it straight: the Chinese Communist Party is the core of evil that must be taken down ASAP. TakeDownTheCCP

So, is Australia banning itself?

Could be used against the US for police abuse of African Americans.

Very little substance in here, and the only comment was from a Liberal senator Yeah no shit he's gonna say its tops. This article sucks.

I mean JFC Australia is violating Human rights with its off shore detention policy. Some now locked up for over 8 years. We are sickeningly hypocritical

Hopefully first off is the USA
