Australian government acting 'irresponsible' telling Israel to not go to war with Hezbollah

Former British Army commander Richard Kemp says the Australian government is acting "irresponsible" for telling Israel to not go to war with Hezbollah.
"In the last two hours, Hezbollah has fired a massive bonbardment of rockets into northnern Israel which is still going on now as we speak," he told Sky News host Andrew Bolt.
"Hezbollah claim they've fired at least 200 rockets at Israel in the last couple of hours."

The Japanese entered Sydney and Darwin harbours in WW2. In similar circumstances, and based on Labor’s pronouncements re the Hamas-Israel war, should we expect an Australian Labor government to decide we had no right to mount a defence and instead to offer to cede parts of Australia in a ceasefire arrangement? Given 2022 federal election results, Tassie is sitting pretty for a trade, and the risk of WA changing its political allegiance, plus its distance from Labor heartlands, could make any parts of that state without mineral deposits a tempting bargaining chip. The Australian population definitely has the right to know who would feel the sharp edge of Labor’s ideologies if Australia suffers terrorist attacks and bombardment.

A pro Israeli major gives his opinion on Australian politics . In his opinion Australian politicians are irresponsible. The UK and it's allies were irresponsible when they illegally invaded Iraq. It does not make any difference what Australia says or does. Benjamin Netanyahu has stated in many occasions that he does listen for one second to any countries criticism of Israel. So, this conversation is absolutely pointless. The same conversation will not be listened to in Australia. The truth is most Australians don't care about Israel. I don't see many young Americans or Australians or British running to sign up to fight for Israel .

[@indoman8887]

Some points: (1) I am no fan of Hezbollah, but the rockets came after Israel killed one of its senior commanders in an airstrike. It is just a continuation of the tit for tat strikes against one another. (2) The government did not tell Israel not to attack Hezbollah, it said it would not support an attack, for example, in international forums like the UN if a vote condemning Israel was held. That is, Australia would abstain, thereby not showing support. (3) After British intelligence received information of German rocket research at Peenemunde island research centre, they bombed it in August, 1943 and also started bombing the V1 launch ramps in France before the first missile landed on its soil. The factories for the V1 and V2 systems were underground and not much affected by bombing.
