Hamas is publicly challenging Israel & its United States backers to allow an open, impartial international investigation into Oct 7.

They say photo's never lie (haha) but they certainly don't always tell the truth. So much processing is done in your phone without even being aware of it.

Now that phones alter our photos without us knowing, how do we know what’s real? | Isabel Brooks
Comparing the pictures taken with my camera’s automatic software to those taken with a ‘zero-processing’ app, the results are shocking. Is this a good idea, asks writer Isabel Brooks

#Auspol If Australians are not allowed to criticise Israel over its Genocide in Gaza and land theft, how long before we see laws banning us from criticising the USA over ICE, murder of fisherman off the Venezuelan Coast because Trump says it's hate speech that endangers Americans in Aus?

How in the everloving fuck do we live in a place where most of our politicians and all our mainstream media orgs point-blank refuse to understand the vast majority of Australians are not in any way anti-Jew but are most definitely anti-Genocide?

Our hearts are shattered – and some have broken them further
There is no going back to where we were before December 14. But a social contract Australians relied on has been destroyed by the Coalition.

I've been sick for a few days, no voice, shocking cough. Never good timing but I'm event Secretary for a Hillclimb this weekend. Last Motorsport event for the year. Not firing on all cylinders. Will still be there doing my job but it's going to be a long day.

The @nswsocialists.bsky.social make some excellent points here re the recent explosion at the chemical waste facility operated by Coopers Environmental in St Marys, western Sydney. I wonder if ABC News will report these concerns. 🤔 #auspol #nswpol #environment #NSWSocialists

This is one of Albanese’s three great betrayals of the Australian people.

1. Woodside over the environment and indigenous heritage

2. US military complex over the entire budget and our sovereignty

3. Gambling industry over the most vulnerable.
“Australians lose close to $32 billion a year from gambling” but “Labor's leadership decided it was not worth acting on gambling advertising and upsetting the powerful lobby”.
Pure ALP.
Fear rules on gambling in Albanese government
Andrew Wilkie has asked the PM to allow a free vote on banning gambling advertising and it appears many Labor MPs would support it.
