Do you support the government calling for a permanent ceasefire in Gaza?

Yes, but Hamas is to lay down its arms and dissolve, the hostages are to be released, and the Israelis must be subjected to a more 'boots on the ground' review.

The government should call for an end to Hamas rule in Gaza as a pre-condition for a permanent ceasefire.

No, tell Hamas to surrender. If Hamas surrenders the war is over straight away.

No, Hamas has support of Palestinian people and will just regroup and continue attacking Israel. They want nothing less but destruction of Israel and Jews. Israel is in an existential fight for survival

No, not until all hostages are released and Gaza is no longer under Hamas terrorist rule

No, this is none of our business and being involved offers no benefit to the Australian people, nor do we have any tangible influence on it in the first place

Absolutely not, due to terrorist organisations like Hamas, we should be sending aid to Israel, to help diminish Hamas

I believe that Australia should instead, take Gaza as its own, and use it to begin Christo-Pagan crusades into Israel and the West Bank.

Demand a plan for peace and justice in Israel and Palestine, to end the genocide in Gaza, to free all remaining Israeli hostages, demand Hamas to disarm, Netanyahu to be sent to ICC with Hamas leaders and for elections in their respective societies. Push for an end to Israeli settler occupation in West Bank and protect Jerusalem and important Holy places by putting them in a neutral territory managed by Christian, Jewish and Muslim leaders. Push for two-state solution.

I call for the Government to ensure all Israeli hostages are released, Palestinian genocide is ended, Israel to stop occupation in parts of West Bank, launch Jerusalem as a third UN-Vatican-Israel-Palestine state and call Hamas to disarm

No, the Australian government should call for the release of the hostages, and the destruction of Hamas.

Yes, provided the hostages are released and both sides promise to refrain from actions that harm civilians on both sides, and the Israelis allow for food and aid to be sent into the strip.

Id want a ceasefire in both sides. I don't really stand for either side hurting each other and we should also stay out of this mess before it gets us into it.

Yes; enough destruction and blood shed has occurred in Gaza, and a permanent ceasefire would bring the beginning of peace.

Yes, but under the condition the hostages are released.

The stats given in the description above are biased and show heavy favour to one side of the story.

I support international pressure for a ceasefire, but the conditions included must be that Israel returns the Palestinian territory it has seized since the beginning of the war. Hamas must also be removed from Government and both countries face an international court for war crimes. Palestine should be internationally recognised as a country.

Israel needs be pressured to end its conflicts in Lebanon and all other territories it is attempting to occupy. We cannot encourage expansionistic colonising mindset, or it will lead to a repeat of the current situation.

No the Philistines are desert nomad's and have no country

GOD gave the promise land to the Jews not the philistines

Yes, provided that both sides show commitment to show restraint and a willingness to negotiate in good faith and that the hostages or their remains get released.

Stick to home issues and stop importing trouble makers who refuse to sssimikate before Australia is its own war zone

I support the government putting boots on the ground to physically stop the Palestinian genocide being conducted by Israel.

Yes, and Israeli government officials and IDF officers wanted by the ICC should be treated as war criminals.

No as this conflict does not directly involve Australia.

In theory absolutely, however it depends if Hamas accepts the existence of Israel. Gaza had decades and huge amounts of fundings from Arab nations to make the place better but spent on weapons and tunnels. Israel has the right to exist and decent itself. The government hasn't been tough enough calling out Hamas and Palestinians supporters in Australia.

Yes, but I would also want to see the hostages taken by Hamas to be released unconditionally.

no point since irseal is going to continue they war crimes

Yes, and Australia should recognise Palestine as a country.

If they mitigate the resulting anti-Semitism in Australia

Yes, but I would like to see the hostages released.

It’s none of our business we should not be involved

Austrslia needs to back out of areas where its not our business. Get these people out of our country and get us out of theirs!

The British should own the land or the Aramaic people

Yes, but only if it means returning the land to Palestine under International Law

No, not until HAMAS is defeated because otherwise it is just kicking the can down the road to come back later

I don't believe Australia needs to take a stance on matters concerning the Middle East.

Yes, but instead of a military approach, we should help Israel take a diplomatic approach in conquering Hamas.

Yes, but instead of a military approach, we should help take a diplomatic approach towards ending Hamas' rule in Gaza.

No, Hamas has demonstrated, it will not abide by a ceasefire and will continue to use Hostages and Palestinians as human shields

Gaza has been allowed to operate as a terrorist nation for too long, and needs to have a stop put to it.

No, I don’t support the genocide of Israel. A proper solution is in order, not telling the victim the rats can hurt them as they please.

No, a permanent ceasefire in Gaza would destroy the Israeli state and would displace Jews

No, but unless you have to remove the terrorists to keep Palestinians alive until the end of the war, Israel will pay for the damage in Gaza that was destroyed and kill innocent people.

This war doesn't involve us nor affects us stay out

No. Not without a call for / resolution for the immediate return of hostages and immediate laying down of arms by Hamas, whose direct actors must be imprisoned. Followed by the dissolution of Hamas and UNWRA

No. Gaza have sown the wind, and are now reaping the whirlwind. A ceasefire would undermine the efforts of the IDF and show the West is more concerned about optics than doing what has to be done.

There is no reason for a ceasefire to be entertained at this time.

Gaza have shown that their only desire is for the destruction of Israel and the killing of the Jews living there. Every time that Israel or anyone else has extended an olive branch to them, they either rejected it outright or took it and then attacked them immediately. They see mercy as weakness - and so they will respond with war. If they desire war so greatly, they shall have war - in all of its brutality. Perhaps, when they are treated like the losers in a war, they will see reality.

It took the total and utter annihilation of Germany and Japan's ability to wage war in order to get…  Read more them to surrender. I believe it will take the same for Gaza - their people are similarly indoctrinated to a similarly extremist ideology. Furthermore, for peace between Israel and Gaza, there will likely need to be a decades-long occupation - a real occupation, with soldiers on every corner. Not whatever protesters have been calling an 'occupation' for the last 20 years.

No, the Gazans don't deserve peace. Not until they surrender unconditionally.

Yes, the government should call for a permanent ceasefire in Palestine, Lebanon, and all other territories that Israel is currently attempting to occupy. The government should also call on Israel to cease its occupation of Palestine, and cease their expansionist actions. We should also commit to prosecuting any war criminals that make it onto Australian soil, regardless of their nationality. It is also vitally important that Australia firmly insists that our allies cease dealing arms to any state that is infringing on the sovereignty of another, and that we ensure we also do not engage in this profiteering, war mongering behaviour.

I believe that there should be a permanent ceasefire on both sides wherein Hamas stops using both Palestinians and Israeli as shields and where Israel is held responsible for the unjust genocide and continued segregation of Palestinians. No one's hands are clean. This is the escalation of an apartheid within the nation that has been present since its partition, it needs to be resolved in diplomacy, not violence.

Yes, Australia as it stands is complicit i the genocide of Palestinians and can and we must do more to see Israel held accountable for its war-crimes
