"The US and Europe’s pretence that they couldn’t have done anything to prevent Israel’s supposedly pre-emptive strikes against Iranian sites echoes their hand-wringing in relation to the genocide in Gaza and ethnic cleansing in the West Bank." johnmenadue.com/post/2025/06...

Dr Assal Rad— "They call this "self-defense" too."

Diplomatic cable also emphasizes the IDF's remark that the strikes are part of a "planned war" rather than than a "limited option"

A man with a green card said ICE agents arrested him in #Lynn, Mass then took him to a detention facility—but first made a detour to a cemetery, where they took him out of their vehicle and beat him. #mapoli #Massachusetts

You’ll be too young to remember, but there was a time when you could wake up as many as three mornings in a row and not find the world had lost its fucking mind.

It’s looking more and more like a dictatorship. That’s no way to treat a U.S. Senator. Claiming he was an attacker and failed to identify himself is delusional he’s a sitting senator. America is watching, and the tides are turning.

Media release: Israel’s bombing of Iran places entire region at risk

This story is incredible. “For 15 years now, engineers and quality control specialists have implored regulators, journalists and airlines to take a closer look at the 787 Dreamliner.” Of particular concern: the planes delivered to Air India

What Britain and the US live for: slaughtering brown people in the Middle East. #FuckIsrael #FuckTheUSA #FuckTheUK

refusing to breathe this air that is full of indifference #KeepTellingofGaza #GazaGenocide‌

The Albo govt's approval of Woodside's North West Shelf Extension climate bomb was contingent on a number of conditions, which were not made public Would love to know what the conditions are & how they relate to the priceless Murujuga rock art cultural heritage

"You're not alone in thinking Australia is getting taken for a ride." Other countries are making a fortune from our gas exports, while Australians pay a premium price for our own gas. @richarddenniss.bsky.social with @punterspolitics.bsky.social 🧡 Our EOFY appeal: theaus.in/support_EOFY25

NEWSOM: "It's a vulgar display. It's the kind of thing you see with Kim Jong Un, Putin, dictators that are weak… How weak do you have to be to commandeer the military for your birthday?“

Let's be clear: Israel's attack on Iran is not simply a violation of the UN Charter. It is a manifest violation of it. Few acts are more unequivocally illegal than preventive (non-imminent) self-defence. So Israel's attack is both unlawful and criminal -- the crime of aggression.

The complete eradication of Rafah - a city with a quarter of a million residents - should and will be remembered as a crime against humanity, amongst the worst modern urbicides

Every word of this is false. Why would the New York Times even print this?

Prof. Jeffrey Sachs: ‘Israel has run American foreign policy for 30 years…we have a plan for 7 wars in 5 years. They carry out this madness and don’t explain any of it to the American people. We’ve had 6 of those the 7 wars. The only one that hasn’t happened is Iran.’

Yes. According to Army protocol, congressional staff are VIP Code 5, with a rank equivalent to a two-star general/admiral. Members of Congress are of course significantly higher. I have never seen USCP, FPS, or any other federal LEO treat any Member with anywhere near this disrespect and violence.

#auspol Dump #Aukus @albomp.bsky.social DUMP AUKUS !

One aspect of Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill" that isn't getting enough attention?  It would give ICE tens of billions in additional funding to conduct more violent raids and abductions across the country. A big, ugly, authoritarian nightmare.

Of all the options open to peoples, a naval escort for boats carrying humanitarian aid to a beleaguered starving people would represent not an act of war, but a long overdue, life-saving intervention. #auspol #madleen

Construction on the newest Australian submarine began the year this was released. Formal processes around new replacement subs have been going since 2007, with real billions already spent for zero current prospect of getting an actual submarine. And it's "vital." Well done all.

Astonishing. Trump did say before election he wanted to be dictator, and US voted for it. Will citizens now overturn dictatorship?

I do hope the fact Israel has cut off the internet across the Gaza Strip to prevent us watching the IDF round up starving Palestinians and slaughter them has made you feel more comfortable with your complicity in the Gaza Genocide, @albomp.bsky.social @senatorwong.bsky.social. Have a lovely day.

Billionaires want you to believe immigrants are taking your job because then you won't realize they are actually coming for your job with AI and other types of automation. We need universal basic income.

"The mass killing of civilians, the destruction of universities and schools, the levelling of libraries and mosques, these are not collateral damages. They are acts of cultural erasure." johnmenadue.com/post/2025/06...

Flagging it. Today’s @theage cartoon.

Inflammatory. My @smh cartoon.

When people say it’s hyperbolic to compare Trump to Hitler or to infer that Republicans are Nazis, they’re obviously very unfamiliar with history. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

At the end of this Instagrammed infanticide the ABC will be able to say it didn't know, it was distracted making 17 million pieces of content about a beef Wellington

"Peace doesn’t mean quiet. It means truth. And that truth has just been insulted — in full public view — with a medal. "Let’s not pretend otherwise." johnmenadue.com/post/2025/06...

President of the Mexican Senate, "We'll build the wall and pay for it. But we'll do it according to the 1830 map of Mexico... Mexicans were settled in these territories before the U.S. The Mexicans living there are in what has always been their homeland."
