I think people who knowingly break the law and cause thousands of deaths are murderers.
Our Ex PM did this, and the current one covered it up using more criminal behaviour.

UN approval of Gaza ‘Stabilisation Force’ slammed as ‘Denial of Palestinian self-determination’
CodePink said the plan “will leave Palestine in the hands of a puppet administration, assigning the United States, which shares complicity in the genocide, as the new manager of the open-air prison.”

Australia's LNP opposition says net zero & renewables will lead to higher power prices & even "wreck the economy".
Does any other country dumping coal & developing clean renewable energy say the same thing?
Of course not. It's bullshit. LNP picks the line it thinks will appeal to people's pockets.

GENOCIDE
So what does "peace" in Gaza look like?
It looks like GENOCIDE
"Peace" was just a device to allow Western governments to slink away and wash their hands
Like Australia .. still delivering military equipment (secretly now) to Israel

How many times has Israel violated the Gaza ceasefire? Here are the numbers
Since the ceasefire took effect one month ago, Israeli attacks have killed at least 242 Palestinians and injured 622.

the great "unknown unknown" in all of this is agriculture. our food systems are all constructed on a specific kind of climate. make an area - say NW vic where loads of wheat is grown - a lot drier, what will that do to wheat yields? what if it gets wetter? suddenly you have rust and ergot problems.
