	Description:		The Government’s decision on whether it’ll recognise the state of Palestine has been put on hold until next month. It’s despite our closest neighbour Australia following a sweep of countries moving to support Palestine. 78 years since the United Nations resolution to create the State of Israel and a Palestinian state, Australia’s PM Anthony Albanese said the world “can no longer wait for the implementation of that resolution to be negotiated between the two parties”. So, how should New Zealand proceed? And if it’s a matter of “when not if” -- as David Seymour has said – then why are we behind the eight ball? Today on The Front Page, University of Otago senior politics professor Dr Leon Goldsmith is with us to unpack the complexities of this never-ending conflict.
