Australia Joins UN Chess Game, Checkmating Gaza Again
Australia announced it will recognize a Palestinian state in September, joining the UN General Assembly trend led by Canada, France, and the UK. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese called a two-state solution 'humanity's best hope to break the cycle of violence.' Meanwhile, Israeli PM Netanyahu dubbed it a reward for Hamas' 'monstrous terrorism,' and Secretary of State Marco Rubio labeled early recognition 'clumsy' and 'irrelevant' before hostage releases. Penny Wong and Rubio had a diplomatic chat—whether she gave him a heads-up, though? Crickets. Classic international theater: starring hope, skepticism, and timing mishaps.

Australia just hit the 'collective global headache' button on the Middle East peace remote. Spoiler alert: no fast-forward, rewind only makes things worse.
Calling it a two-state solution sounds like naming a problem hoping it solves itself. Hint: It’s like labeling your junk drawer 'organized'.
