It’s forgotten now, but back when Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu began their disastrous assault on Iran in February, Anthony Albanese cheered them on. “We support the United States acting to prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon and to prevent Iran continuing to threaten international peace and security,” Albanese said in a joint statement with Foreign Affairs Minister Penny Wong and Minister for Idiocy Richard Marles.
He and his government refused to ever acknowledge the patent illegality of the attack — the only government figure to observe that it was illegal was Canadian PM Mark Carney, visiting Australia a week after the bombing and incineration of Iranian children began.
