The Labor Party’s national conference is heating up as former minister Ed Husic pushes a bold resolution accusing Israel of genocide and apartheid, sparking fierce debate. Foreign Minister Penny Wong seeks compromise with MPs like Jewish MP Josh Burns and Palestinian refugee descendant Basem Abdo. Husic’s motion calls for withdrawing diplomatic staff from Tel Aviv, prosecuting dual nationals who served in Israel’s military, and imposing trade sanctions — while also backing full diplomatic ties with Palestine. Tensions rise as Jewish groups protest the party’s earlier stance on Hamas, and another union proposes an even tougher position against the group. If passed, the resolution will become an appendix to the party platform — a powerful, if not binding, statement.
