Hooy meeting Palestinian diplomat earlier this year


One of the strongest diplomatic messages that a state or pseudo-state can give is to summon the ambassador of another country to show how upset the host country is over some egregious act done by the other.

From Wafa:

The Palestinian Foreign Ministry today summoned an Australian diplomat over the Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison’s remarks in favor of Israel.

Undersecretary of the Foreign Ministry, Amal Jadou, stated that the Acting Director of the Australian Representative Office, Warren Hooy, was summoned following Foreign Affairs Minister Riyad Malki’s instructions over Morrison’s remarks in favor of Israel.

Jado met with Hooy to express Palestinian “dissatisfaction and resentment” of Morrison’s remarks in which he underscored a shift by his government to take “an even stronger stand against the biased and unfair targeting of Israel in the UN General Assembly.”
Yes, Morrison said he would fight the UN bias against Israel, and the PLO was so incensed that it summoned the closest thing they could find to an ambassador from Australia.

The full statement that Morrison made about Israel to US Vice President Pence at a luncheon a few days sgo was:

Beyond our region, we share a commitment to the sovereignty, also, and prosperity of Israel.  For 70 years — and especially recently — we have, in Australia, together, consistently advocated for the nation of Israel and for a peaceful future for the region.

Most recently, under my government, we have taken an even stronger stand against the biased and unfair targeting of Israel in the U.N. General Assembly, together with the United States.  And, Mr. Vice President, we will continue to do so.  (Applause.)
Notice that nothing Morrison said implies any less of a relationship with Palestinians. But to Palestinians, if Israel wins anything, they lose.

Usually a summoning will make the news because this is the biggest weapon in the diplomatic pouch.

This story is in Palestinian media, an obscure Latin American news site - and that's it. Apparently, Palestinian rage over trivia is so normal that even something like this makes no waves.



We have lots of ideas, but we need more resources to be even more effective. Please donate today to help get the message out and to help defend Israel.
