As an Australian and a supporter of democracy, the rule of law, human rights and social justice, I find it almost impossible to express my utter disgust and dismay at the statements made by US President Trump about clearing the Palestinians out of Gaza.
This statement amounts to a proposal of straight-out ethnic cleansing.
While nothing can be done for a very long time about the direction of the United States, it would be a small comfort if our own government could express a clear denunciation of such thinking.
