Just a reminder, Penny, your govt has committed Australia to a nuclear military future through #Aukus & Fleet Base West. #auspol

The state of #Iran is like the Persian Carpet Gallery for WMDs. But instead of “Closing down in a few weeks”, it has been “just weeks away from a nuclear weapon” for decades.

Just consider for a moment that Penny Wong, who flounces around the world dictating everyone else follow the “Rules-based order” now says she supports Trump going to war illegally without Congress’ approval and dragging Australia along with him. #auspol

Tens of thousands of US military pass through Shannon Airport every year. At times, it’s the largest de facto US war base in the world, despite Ireland being neutral & pretending it doesn’t notice. All US military should be obliged to provide >their< social media accounts, in advance, unlocked.

Irish people applying for US visas must now detail all social media accounts they've used in past five years, according to requirements outlined today by the US embassy in Dublin.

Amazing. NYT has more confirmation that Trump's decision to bomb Iran was motivated in large part by the way the Israeli strikes were "playing" on Fox News, which drove him to want credit for it

Yup, international law is just so quaint and nostalgic when our allies are the ones breaking it. But God forbid someone we have designated a threat step anywhere near the lines we’re hastily pretending never existed

While the country braces for the possibility of attacks from Iranian sleeper cells, we can all rest easy knowing that Trump’s put this 22 year old former part-time grocery clerk and landscaper, in charge of terrorism prevention. He’s got zero experience. NEVER worked in counter-terrorism. SMDH

You don't understand! The ALP government has to support Israeli genocide, US war crimes, the destruction of the rule of law, and the north west gas shelf, because it only has a 51 seat lead on the Coalition. Something something Murdoch. They're really progressive, I swear.

Look, we need to be serious here. We are talking about a country led by jingonistic religious fanatics that are obsessed with demonstrating their military might. They even make school kids pledge allegiance to the flag every morning and... hang on someone just handed me some notes.

Some people get into journalism because they’re skeptical of power, and others do so because they’re impressed by it. Moments like this are clarifying with respect to who’s who.

🎙️You might ask what it takes to remember When you know that you've seen it before Where a govt lies to a people And a country is drifting to war. On the radio talk shows & TV You hear one thing again & again How the USA stands for freedom And we come to the aid of a friend. youtu.be/o_8UAYJLU98?...

Trump’s attack against Iran is illegal and immoral. And any leader who tells you otherwise is lying to you.

It’s still pretty absurd that another country having a nuke is somehow a threat to national security but somehow the US or it’s allies having one is fine and dandy. Like maybe no one should have them perhaps.

Good thing we didn't vote for Dutton, or cripes, we'd have a govt that is full throated in its support for illegal bombing of a sovereign nation.

I hate when I go to bed early on a Saturday night and wake up Sunday morning only to discover we’ve gone to war in the Middle East without the consent of Congress. 😡
