"We all have views and opinions, and everyone's entitled to protest, but we're also entitled to go about our business and we do it peacefully," Mr Reddy said.

"They're out there talking about Palestine and what's happening out there. I understand their point of view [but] who's talking about Ukraine?

"We're here to defend democracy and to enable the peace loving people of Ukraine to stand up to Russian oppression. Why is no one talking about that? It's only about Palestine for some reason."

fucking cretins

The ex minister for defence was at this expo, now on the board of some defence company, didnt get alot of attention though

fucking gross seeing so many good journalists trying not to salivate over the big boy toys while they put to you: dont you care for the peace loving Ukrainian people?

a quick search shows the australian grubernment provided 70mil to Palestine (extremely begrudgingly, funding stops anytime israle says boo) in the last 12 months, and more than 150mil to Ukraine

    We're here to defend democracy

    wojak-nooo 'WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY "MASS MURDER" AND "GLOBAL MISERY"??? ITS MUH WESTERN DEMOCRACY!!!'

    and to enable the peace loving people of Ukraine to stand up to Russian oppression.

    War is peace...

    Why is no one talking about that? It's only about Palestine for some reason.

    wojak-nooo 'STOP DRAWING ATTENTION TO THE FASCIST SCUM WE ARE ARMING TO DO A GENOCIDE!!! WHATABOUT MUH UKRAINE FOREVER WAR?!'

    This is an actual example of virtue signalling, some slimy fucking subhuman arms dealers gesturing at "MUH DEMOCRACY" and "MUH UKRAINE" to cynically justify profiting off of the bloody war that is destroying the very country that they pretend to care about and draw attention away from the actual genocide they enable.
