A couple of weeks ago, our prime minister was deposed by his party and as a compromise, we ended up with a Christian evangelical prime minister. This guy believes in the biblical prophecies that Jerusalem is a Jewish/Israeli city. Many of his colleagues and the party’s supporters/voters would’ve objected to it, but there is a by-election coming next Saturday for the seat of the former prime minister. Poll after poll has indicated that they will lose this seat and if they do, we will have a hung parliament and then, parliament has to be dismissed and fresh elections be held asap, rather than wait till when it’s due, next year. If elections are held now, the ruling party will be wiped out from power. They are desperate to win this seat (Wentworth, a well off area in Sydney) and maintain their slim parliamentary majority and buy time to improve their polling next year. But first, they need to be creative and offer something unique to the significant numbers of Jewish/Australians living in that electorate. Ladies and gentlemen, our government announced last night that Australia legitimately recognises Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and accordingly, soon, our embassy will be moved there.
Stupidity or political master stroke?
We are the third only country to do so, but compared to Trump, we have smaller balls, will the Arab and Islamic countries cut diplomatic relations and commercial ties with us?

Farah’s in Melbourne need to chill, we’ve enough terrorists in jail already.
