When reporting Israeli claims that are demonstrably false, known lies, REPORT THIS! Some suggested phrases:
"Israel falsely claims ..."
"Israel repeated the proven lie that ..."
Words matter. Facts matter. Otherwise it's not #journalism, it's propaganda. #Israel #Palestine

What will it take for regular people to understand that if they refuse to stand up against fascism they will not be spared? Fascism is a serial killer with no restrictions on who it targets.

Faruqui is right: past time for Labor to do, not just say. What is happening in Gaza is so obscene a “progressive” government must step up. What line has to be crossed before Labor do, rather than say something? What is Albanese waiting for? What’s the line? How much worse does it have to get?
