"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
Says the man standing next to a minigun while at the murder machine expo
All the reporting has been fucking obscene, and everyone I've overheard talking about this has bought it hook, line and stinker
police commissioner telling reporters he wants protesters to go home and think about they way they acted after how they were treated
they were shooting mainstream journalists with definitely not rubber bullets (foam bullets, phew)
Oh, I went home and thought about my actions alright
