The Indonesian government has stated its stance of supporting Palestine by calling on Israel to halt its offensive in the Gaza Strip. “The use of military force within Gaza, as happened in December 2008, will have a serious impact on humanity as well as violating international law,” Foreign Ministry spokesman Teuku Faizasyah said Friday as quoted by kompas.com.
“Military attacks that followed the Israeli government’s announcement of its 1,600 new houses in eastern Jerusalem will also hamper pacification efforts,” he added.
Your comments:
What a waste of time, Indonesia. When will the government learn that Israel doesn’t listen to them, or anyone else? They have the United States behind them in everything that they do and the US may complain, but has never taken any action against Israel.

Funny, there was no call for the Palestinians to stop launching
rockets at Sedorot and other towns in Israel.
If Palestinians try to kill Jews, your government is content. Only when Jews react and try to defend themselves is there a call for
a “halt”?
If another country launched missiles at Jakarta, how would your government react?
