Ed Husic has been making some noise recently (https://aussie.zone/post/33103714). These sanctions are probably intended to allow Wong to claim they're doing something (they're not).
Perhaps there's too many rumblings in the community and they have to look like they have some moral authority ๐ ๐ก PLUS these sanctions mean nothing as they do not stop Israel in continuing their daily destruction of the Palestinian people. So, the govt can get a bit of moral PR while still continuing to support the Israeli lobby and the genocide.
