If Albo is serious about social cohesion, inviting the head of a genocidal apartheid rogue state is an odd move.

As @jewishcouncilau.bsky.social said:
"The far-right Israeli government does not speak for Jewish people in Australia and is not interested in our safety."

While mainstream Jewish organisations have welcomed Isaac Herzog's recently announced visit to Australia, others have expressed dismay.

Prof @adamroberts.bsky.social is a brilliant novelist & short story writer as well as an academic, and there couldn't be a better person to make short shrift of the latest Avatar movie.

The last few sentences are delicious.

I find it incredibly difficult to write about my Jewishness. I didn't want to write this, but I did.

We need to re-embrace complexity and nuance in thinking about and discussing the Jewish future.

Due to the horrors of Bondi, I didn't really promote this, but last Sunday was Part 1 of Utility Fog's best of 2025 - vocal music, songs, raps, that kind of thing!

It was really an amazing year for music, even though on most counts it was a fucker of a year. So, enjoy xx

Zionism endangers Jews everywhere by tying their safety - whether wanted or not, Israeli or not - to this evil colonial project. Again, Palestinians had nothing to do with the Bondi shooting, and this rhetoric attempts to make them responsible for global Jewish wellbeing & punishable on that basis.

This is revolting, racist nonsense and it’s being mainlined everywhere right now. No criticism of Israel is allowed, ever. They can starve as many babies to death as they like, they can mass murder hundreds of thousands and it's fine because they're Jewish.

Incredible story from SBS News about an unnamed second Middle Eastern man who kicked the younger murderer's gun out of the way - and because of his appearance he was briefly attacked himself.

This man is a refugee on a temporary visa and a hero. @tonyburkemp.bsky.social needs to fast-track his case

1. This short thread is about what I see as a serious breach of journalistic ethics, in the making of Sofia Pineda Ochoa’s online documentary Greenwashed. She interviewed me for the film, but neither before, during or after was I given any idea I would be its target. www.youtube.com/watch?v=XjWU...

"Kiryat Shmona was established in 1949 on the site of the depopulated Palestinian Arab village of Al-Khalisa."
Were are the Palestinian Arab villagers of Al-Khalisa whose homes were destroyed ? Shouldn't THEY be considered as the main victims there, not the foreign Jewish settlers ?
#WATCH | Israelis protest in Kiryat Shmona, northern Israel, after their city was bombed repeatedly by Hezbollah for more than a year, suffering immense economic and social crisis. The government still refuses to pay for the citizens who’s homes were destroyed

That woman is 💯 the worst person they could've chosen as the Antisemitism Envoy (whateverthefuck that is anyway).
The media uncritically platforming her is hard to take though.

It goes without saying that she doesn't represent me, but just to be clear: she represents a large part of the problem.
The idea that massive crackdown on anti-genocide protests in universities, and refusing to support Palestinian statehood would have somehow prevented last Sunday's terror attack in Bondi has already infected Aus media so deep that they're taking it as a truism

3 months later and Ahmed is still in a tent, but like many Palestinians in Gaza is suffering from the worsening weather. Please give if you can.

My friend in Gaza, Ahmed, has had to leave his home in Gaza City. He tried his best to stay, but then dozens of people were killed in a bombing just near his home.

He has worked to rebuild his family home. It’s gone. This is all he has.

Please consider giving to him:

Ah yes, that's where a recently unemployed 24-year-old bricklayer, who spent years hanging around Australia's pro-IS network, and his 50-year-old migrant father were radicalised: university anti-genocide protests 🙄
