This thread highlighting the gross hypocrisy of @MFATNZ & @winstonpeters is possible thanks to the diligence of @IMPACT_SE & @UNWatch. MFAT officials like Deb Collins, Jonathan Kings, Chris Seed, Stuart Horne, & Jonathan Curr know of the issues and still recommend funding. Why?

Officials at @MFATNZ and @winstonpeters say they support a two-state solution. They also fund, with our taxes, schools that educate children for a future without Israel. Do you believe their words or their actions? #nzpol Image from impact-se.org/wp-content/upl…

This advert was rejected by @NZStuff, despite them running at least 3 full-page adverts against Israel this year alone. The Stuff website claims "...We believe in fiercely independent, fair, accurate, balanced, inclusive and trustworthy journalism..." #yeahright

It is abhorrent that anyone would set up a "hotline" so that people with a certain passport can be harassed (or worse). No visitor or citizen should be hunted down by vigilantes. We condemn the discrimination and incitement of John Minto. @NZHumanRights @theplatform_nz

Scenes in Auckland yesterday (Oct 28). These are not protests for peace. These are not protests for Palestinians. At best, these are hateful protests against Israel. And the next generation is being indoctrinated.

The @nzlabour party want Hamas to be part of a peace process. We await their media release asking ISIS to similarly be part of peace in Mali; for Boko Haram to be part of peace in Nigeria; and for the Taliban to provide peace in Afghanistan. It's almost as if @chrishipkins hasn't

The Israel Institute of New Zealand (IINZ) welcomes Foreign Minister Winston Peters’ announcement at the United Nations General Assembly that New Zealand will not prematurely recognise a Palestinian state. mailchi.mp/442df86b7a95/i… @NewZealandMFA

NZ Labour appears to have a problem. First, Damien O'Connor endorses the massacre of Oct 7. Then, Duncan Webb is seen at a protest alongside a PFLP flag. Anything to say, @nzlabour?

Any comment from @NZStuff columnist, @UnPressed, who said hostages were "well looked after" in Gaza?

Helen Clark stood at Egypt’s Rafah crossing and blamed Israel for blocking aid. Problem: Rafah is run by Egypt, not Israel. Fact: 300 trucks entered Gaza from Israel yesterday. Truth matters — Gaza’s suffering isn’t caused by photo-ops or soundbites. israelinstitute.nz/2025/08/helen-…

Our nation's largest newspaper (@nzherald) won't run the attached paid advert without massive cost to bolster security because they fear being attacked. How can we trust their journalism isn't influenced by the same thugs? #nzpol #antisemitism @CAMERAorg @HonestReporting

Take note, @aucklandmuseum. This is how to honour the memory of victims of terror. It is shameful that not one of your board has seen fit to resign. You are not worthy custodians of the memory of the Holocaust when you feel you have to appologise to thugs for the worst slaughter

Is David Seymour really the only anti-racist in parliament willing and able to call out antisemitism (which is at record levels in NZ and around the world)?

Disgraceful that an MP would tweet a phrase used by Hamas, a terrorist group that calls for the destruction of Israel.
