Former Prime Minister Tony Abbott criticises Australia's decision not to join military action in the Middle East, calling the country weak for not standing up for freedom. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese's measured approach receives support from commentators who argue staying out of the conflict demonstrates strategic thinking rather than weakness.
