Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

Meanwhile, the Australian government consolidates its commercial links with this merchant of death and state terror, Palantir. #auspol
Palantir is suing the Swiss magazine Republik who pointed out Palantir's links to ICE and the Genocide in Gaza, which caused the Swiss Government to call them a catastrophic threat and ban Palantir from Swiss Government.

"[T]he restrictions imposed by Israel ... are not merely about controlling aid — they aim to criminalize humanitarian work, weaken aid infrastructure, harm civilians, and increase daily suffering."
On January 1, the Israeli occupation revoked the licenses of 37 humanitarian organizations including MSF, the Norwegian Refugee Council and ActionAid, from operating in Gaza, and it has now warned they must “must complete the cessation of their activities by March 1, 2026.”
Israel Destroyed Gaza’s Hospitals. Now It’s Banning Doctors Without Borders.
Israel says it will start enforcing its ban on 37 aid groups in Gaza in March, putting more Palestinian lives at risk.

Staff at the CSIRO have accused both the former and current leadership of the organisation of failing to “adequately plan for the predictable withdrawal” of the Covid-19 cash. They have said leadership has failed to “make the case for a permanent, real increase in funding”. satpa.pe/zzQy2lR
CSIRO funding falling short by ‘at least’ $1 billion
Internal correspondence and Senate submissions show the CSIRO is running out of money and may lose its position as a leading research agency.
