New Zealand requires Israelis to disclose IDF service details as condition for entry

It has been reported in the Times of Israel on 28 January 2025 (New Zealand requires Israelis to disclose IDF service details as condition for entry | The Times of Israel) that New Zealand now requires Israeli citizens to declare their IDF service details such as their unit, location of their unit, and if they have participated in the ongoing war against the Hamas terrorists, in their application for a tourist visa. The article also states that Australia is doing the same.

What do Australia and New Zealand have in common today other than their shared proud British imperial heritage? They are both led by left-wing political-correct governments who sympathise with Palestinian terrorists.

Is not the requirement to disclose details of military units and location of bases a requirement to disclose confidential information vital to national security? This requirement also gives rise to the possibility of extreme left-wing officials illegally sharing those sensitive details with people they sympathise with. Therefore, this endangers the security of the State of Israel.

Remember, these two countries are not friendly to Jews lately. Antisemitism is on the rise there partly due to the tolerance by left-wing governments. Australia has ceased to recognise West Jerusalem as the capital of Israel (https://www.bbc.com/news/world-australia-63280855.amp).

We can only hope that the Australian and New Zealand governments reverse their errors and be more friendly towards Israel and the Jews.
