‘Do better’: NRL star backflips on controversial Palestine post
NRL star Josh Addo-Carr has apologised a day after he uploaded an Instagram post comparing the Middle East conflict to Indigenous land rights.
“As a proud First Nations man, I saw a message of support against displacement and land rights, and I shared this without full consideration to, or understanding of, the current events happening overseas. “That’s why I would like to own this mistake, and recent actions, express my sincere apologies, and ask that we aim to treat each other with respect.
The territory, which occupies 363 square kilometres along the Mediterrean Sea, is one of the most densely populated places on earth, with more than two million people living there. The impoverished Palestinian enclave has already been under a blockade since 2007, with tight restrictions on what can come in or out.
