Disgusting comments by the Greens

The Post reports:

News the Israeli embassy is moving to a new Wellington location, with some tenants currently unaware, is drawing parallels to “human shield” allegations made against Hamas.

The Israeli Embassy is on the 13th floor of a Brandon St office block but is soon moving to Ballance St, in a building shared by a number of other organisations, including the French Embassy. …

Green Party foreign affairs spokesperson Teanau Tuiono said questions needed to be asked about why the embassy chose a multi-storey building shared by non-embassy New Zealanders.

It seemed “’close to the ‘human shield’ issue Israel is accusing Hamas of doing”, he believed.

What a disgusting comment to make. The Greens are basically saying that they think the Israeli Embassy should be a standalone building, so that it can be blown up, with only the Jews in it killed.

An Embassy is not a military installation. To compare the placement of an Embassy to the Hamas practice of placing terrorist bases below hospitals is grotesque.
