The genocide in Gaza is the greatest crime of this century. It will come back to haunt Israel. It will come back to haunt us. We have sown a minefield of hatred and violence. #auspol #gaza @ChrisLynnHedges

Spud talking about "helping" young people to buy their first property is like Dracula wants to help you to give blood. He has 26 properties. What fucken hypocrisy. He is the problem @albomp.bsky.social @jimchalmers.bsky.social @australianlabor.bsky.social

96% of Australians want more done to protect nature. Meanwhile, just 0.06% of the budget went to on-ground biodiversity programs. We’re losing species we love & major parties are sleepwalking through it. Australians care. It’s time politicians did too. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

How Israel tests military tech on Palestinians | The Palestine Laboratory www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Gvk...

Just heard that the Head of the Australian Broadcasting Corporation described the phrase ‘illegally occupied Palestinian Territories’ as an "antisemitic expression". Does he realise he just called the International Court of Justice antisemitic? WTF happened to Australia's establishment?

Israel has destroyed the last remaining hospital in northern Gaza. We have witnessed the total decimation of Palestinian healthcare, met with silence from political leaders who refuse to acknowledge the horrors they have enabled. This is the dehumanising reality of genocide.

Number of days Keir Starmer has been supplying weapons and military support to the IDF, which is committing genocide against the Palestinians: 170

“Netanyahu is using this moment to announce more settlement activity in order to entrench that occupation and make it permanent,” Odeh said. “Much like he’s doing in the occupied West Bank: land grab, settlements, permanent occupation.” aje.io/lry1en via @ajenglish.bsky.social

Labor and Liberal governments have passed 49 anti-protest laws across the country over the last two decades. It is damning (& history will judge us harshly) but no surprise that 🇦🇺 leads the world on climate protest arrests. www.abc.net.au/news/2024-12...

$28 million for Macquarie Harbour "to help salmon companies that are foreign-owned, been making a mincer out of us for years & years & years...their profits are huge & yet, they haven't paid any tax for 3 years. Why aren't they cleaning up their own mess?" - Senator Jacqui Lambie #auspol

But of course: If Israel has murdered you, you must have been Hamas. Axiomatically. The epitome of the licence to kill that any genocide worth its name cannot do without. www.theguardian.com/world/2024/n...

Ofer Cassif was suspended from the Knesset for doing his duty to the people of Israel: highlighting the tyranny of Netanyahu and the genocide that renders every Israeli unsafe, physically and morally, for decades. He deserves our support and admiration. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

'Al Jazeera has investigated thousands of posts from social media documenting war crimes by Israeli soldiers in Gaza. What does this database expose about the last year of war – what’s being called the first “livestreamed genocide”? www.youtube.com/watch?v=3tKP...
