“We are doing this because no matter what odds we are against, we have to keep trying, because the moment we stop trying is when we lose our humanity.” - Greta Thunberg

Do Israelis believe that war crimes & starvation in Gaza, attacks in West Bank, bombing Lebanon, Syria, Yemen, Iran will make them…. safer? When you’ve lost yr belief in proportion, negotiation, intl law, human rights or the sanctity of human life, you shd probably question what you’re fighting for

"ICE Barbie"? That's catchy 👇 "MSNBC anchor Nicolle Wallace ripped Fox News for not pushing back on Kristi Noem’s “lie” that California Sen. Alex Padilla didn’t identify himself during her press conference Thursday." www.thedailybeast.com/nicolle-wall...

“Low gay bar traffic and spike in pizza deliveries before strikes boost theory on Pentagon activity during invasions.“ 🤣 www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...

Excellent article by Rock Morton in the Saturday Paper this morning, on consultants Nous. These guys are so endemic in university managements I ended up writing a whole paper about them. They're basically vampires www.thesaturdaypaper.com.au/news/educati...

Please don't say they're a smaller nation and more homogeneous than we are. That's a capitalist red hearing. They have a culture that values health and personal freedom and knows the way to that is through strong, healthy communities where everyone contributes their fair share! Even the very rich!

Will the US review into #AUKUS report the truthful state of the program that’s been obvious for well over 15 months to all but Richard Marles and his Qantas Platinum One admirals? Will the undertaker be called in? Here’s my March 2024 analysis. #auspol

As the world remains fixated on the Israel-Iran escalation, Israel continues its massacres in Gaza. Four Palestinians were killed and others injured after Israeli naval boats targeted tents of displaced civilians northwest of Gaza City.

Netanyahu Calls Iran Strikes Necessary To Prevent War He Just Started

Tunnels, you say. 🧐

I remember when we used to call this civil war

"Three months have passed since the National Anti-Corruption Commission promised an “impartial and fair investigation” into Robodebt. Nothing has been heard since." johnmenadue.com/post/2025/06...

Keating always delivers the clearest message “”AUKUS will be shown for what it always has been: a deal hurriedly scribbled on the back of an envelope by Morrison, along with the vacuous British blowhard Boris Johnson & the confused President Joe Biden," Keating said” www.abc.net.au/news/2025-06...

"But that is not the real story here. The real story is that there is a genocide going on in Gaza and a systematic starvation following the siege and blockade now, which is leading to food, medicine, water that are desperately needed to get into Gaza is prevented from doing so." Greta Thunberg

Now is the obvious time for the Australian Parliament (not the government, the parliament) to inquire into the AUKUS project If the US can take a closer look, why cant we?

If there was ever a time for Albanese to drink the Magical Spine Growing Potion NOW IS THAT TIME

I really dislike this smug, disingenuous, baseless type of critique of Greta Thunberg. For all the millions of narcissists, egotists, charismatic villains and disrupters, she’s a bleeding heart with the courage to take action beyond words. www.smh.com.au/world/middle...

Not just LA

But sure, we should definitely trust them to build a billion dollar stadium. Stands to reason. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

I have a new hero. This owl stole a child's hobby horse and flies around with it!

Dear Prime Minister Albanese, for how much longer should we act like this is a normal ally we should do business as usual with?

What fucking other planet are my fellow Queenslanders on right now? This is full on, corruption in our faces. The Courier Mail has picked up on it. The Fucking Courier Mail has this shit on their front page! Holy fucking shit, people. Jesus Fucking Christ, you lot. #qldpol

How on earth is the US going to host an Olympics? #auspol

How in the shit-flinging fuck do we live in a place where the journos are now all outraged one of them was shot (but unharmed) with a rubber bullet yesterday yet none have said a fucking word about the 200 of their number killed with REAL bullets in Palestine? #NewsCorpse

Not a doctor. Not a scientist. No. A longtime heroin addict and current steroid enthusiast who perjured himself in confirmation hearings in order to pursue a twisted agenda that will kill more Americans than Osama Bin Laden.

Meanwhile, police in Canada are keeping families safe and together ♥️🤍

Australia's Future Fund has doubled its returns by investing in the genocide of the Palestinians #auspol #whatsthescam michaelwest.com.au/future-fund-...

No wonder @albomp.bsky.social 𝘦𝘵 𝘢𝘭. are such big fans of Israel's genocide of the Palestinians. Money talks and brown lives don't matter. #auspol #whatsthescam

I have taken for granted my Canadian birth and citizenship - but never again. We have our own political, economical, and social issues but we are SAFE and we are FREE. 🇨🇦 🇨🇦

Sad new: John Shakespeare, my long time friend and colleague at the Sydney Morning Herald, who had retired after 39 years at the paper, died peacefully at home last night with his wife and son by his side. He was unwaveringly gracious and sanguine in the face of his prognosis, and loved by so many.

Whether we want this or not, 7000 soldiers & lord knows how many tanks & helicopters will be used for Trumps birthday parade. The event will cost us- the taxpayers - at least 45 million dollars. But they’ll cut medicare, medicaid & reduce quality of school lunches etc to save money

To watch the entire West back Israel's non-existent 'right' to board a vessel in international waters and abduct its crew and passengers on the might-is-right principle is to witness the Death of International Law - again! www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...

@jesscraven101.bsky.social is in downtown LA at 2:20 PM on June 9. She just heard that the felon is sending in the Marines. They are literally listening to mariachi music and dancing. There is no crisis No violence. Kids. Dogs. Families. People in red states you are being lied to. #NoKings

##FreePalestine @albomp.bsky.social Great stuff Blocking a genocide enabler Now Sanction Israel www.timesofisrael.com/australia-bl...
