    Australia’s support for the strikes

    Australia was among the first countries to publicly endorse the US-Israeli strikes on Iran. In a joint statement issued hours after the attack on 28 February, Anthony Albanese, Wong and defence minister, Richard Marles, said Australia supported the strikes.

    “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,” the statement read.

    One of the strikes killed more that 170 people at a girls’ school, most of them children. The government has since expanded its involvement. On Tuesday Albanese announced that Australia would send a military aircraft and 85 Australian Defence Force personnel to the United Arab Emirates to assist in the defence of Gulf nations targeted by Iran.

    Experts say the move effectively makes Australia a party to the conflict.

    WTF are they doing? I was hoping Wong at least would know better than turn herself into a war criminal…
