Muslim voters call out federal government over death of civilians in Gaza

The 'Muslim Votes Matter' political movement has accused the federal government of being complicit over the deaths of civilians in Gaza.

In their first television interview, its spokesman has made it clear Labor won’t be able to rely on Muslim voters in the next election.

Muslim Australians are marshalling, driven by Israel’s ongoing war and the death toll in Gaza.

Tell your buddies back in Gaza to release the hostages and stop supporting Hamas.

[outback]

Muslim values are not Australian values.

[DOWNUNDER.]

The dregs will never vote for anyone except for labor or one of their own.
Iam voting for one nation

[simongross]

"If you have the ability to do something and you don't do it, you are complicit". True, but they have the ability to condemn terrorists and to demand the release of hostages and they don't. Therefore they are complicit. Clean up your own house first.

I don't think Albo of Arabia would like being accused of this by his own supporter base.

[rogermckinnon]

As the son of the founder of Hamas stood up in the and UN said, there are "no"civilians in Gaza.

[danielmendes]

Let’s hope the coalition wins the next election.

[Chrisplumbgas]

Christianity trumps Islam every time and in every place in my view.

Sky wiping comments about Sydney Muslims celebrating Oct 7 attack on Israeli civilians. What a joke!

[kimberlyh]

Be careful one day Australia became Hamas

[puddintayne]

Perhaps gaza should not have attacked Israel. Then gaza wouldnt be getting attacked now.

Is Hamas protecting gaza citizens ? No, I didnt think so. Hamas uses those people as human shields.

[YuryGurevich]

Values indeed. Does it mean that Hamas and Israel now decide how muslim voters vote? If hamas and Israel start another war Australian government can do what? Will jewish and christian parties appear on our political horizon? You oppenning a can of worms. Will religion decide where and what you can and cannot buy? How the foregn aid be directed? In accordance to your beliefs and loyalty? We are sending money to UNRA now, even though we know they supported hamas. Will we recognise hamas as freedom fiters? Now political parties will have an identifieble demographic to target and God only knows what they will do to win that demographic. What will this change do to our ties with USA?

[AndrewCarthy]

Always voted Labor, just shows their character.

[JohnnyUTAH]

Isn't this actually the definition of Democracy ? Yet look what Labor did, The parties are not a Democracy.

[julimaynes]

Sick of people telling Australia what to do in another country.Who Israel is fighting to survive.

[judycorbett]

Why do they not sanction Hamas and stop the conflict ?

[RonZatuchny-sxye]

Cool put foreign policy above all and be surprised and play secterian games, then be angry people don't like that

[DonaldDeCicco]

Why is every country now the judge of every other country. Has the Chinese social credit system been implemented for countries now? Makes you wonder who's keeping score.

[dominicpelle]

Maybe this guy would prefer the LNP PHON UAP in power...

[Peter-put]

Muslim voters are allowed their opinions in our system of government, their issues appear to be veiled threats to the reigning political party quite frankly. If they feel so strongly they should spend more time helping out where the troubles are.
