This week, we examine serious allegations of sexual violence, physical abuse and rape made by Australian citizens detained by Israeli forces following the illegal interception of the Sumud Flotilla, with the acts now referred to the International Criminal Court. As scrutiny grows over Australia's response to Israel's actions in Gaza and Lebanon, we explore questions of accountability, consistency, international law, human rights, the ICC, Anthony Albanese, Penny Wong and whether Australia's foreign policy principles are being applied equally – or only when politically convenient. #auspol Subscribe to New Politics for weekly briefings and full analysis: www.newpolitics.com.au Support New Politics: Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/newpolitics Substack: https://newpolitics.substack.com Song listing: ‘La Femme d’Argent’, AIR.","meta_description":"The Albanese government frequently presents Australia as a defender of international law, human rights and the rules-based international order, but does t…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":1034,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/new-politics-australian-politics-news-analysis-commentary-711789/episodes/discarding-human-rights-for-the-sake-of-israel/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/new-politics-australian-politics-news-analysis-commentary-711789/discarding-human-rights-for-the-sake-of-israel.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
