Whose shrapnel??

When ABC runs stories about the starvation, thirst and suffering in Gaza, we still get these headlines that avoid the key fact:
ISRAEL DID THIS.

Are news editors *still* worried that they'll be monstered by the Israel lobby? #ThisIsNotJournalism

Thirteen-year-old Abad died weeks after shrapnel ripped through him in Gaza
As a child dies from shrapnel wounds to his stomach and Israel denies starvation is occurring in Gaza the UN's aid urgency issues a warning that kids may soon die of thirst.

Latest long-read analysis about Australia’s inaction and weasel words on #Gaza. OK, it’s going to piss off people who ask “what can we do?” but the election is over and no more excuses. What are they afraid of? READ, SHARE, SUBSCRIBE. #AUSPOL @dlew919.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/newpolit...
The silence and cowardice on Gaza continues from the federal government
The Australia government, through its silence and inaction, is becoming increasingly complicit in the suffering of Gaza through its do-nothing approach.

Under the cover of the on-again/off-again Coalition drama, Labor is gearing up to approve an absolutely catastrophic gas project.

Woodside’s North West Shelf is an untapped climate bomb.

This approval would mean supercharged floods, fires and species extinctions.

Answer us this. Qld youth crime makes up 13% of total crime in the state. You ignore the 87% adult criminality. You apply the punitive measures from the larger problem to the smaller one. If those penalties aren't deterring adults why do you think they'll work on kids? #qldpol

Israel carried out its plan to erase Gaza over the course of 18 months. Now that the plan has clearly fallen into place, the Netanyahu government is openly discussing ethnic cleansing. And still, Israel enjoys complete international impunity.
Exterminating Gaza was always Israel’s plan, but now it’s official

Never forget how many of those advising the ALP are patting themselves on the back for ensuring the govt did nothing in this.

“Not an issue/we made sure it hurt the Greens”

Those doing so are truly putrid. At best excusing murder, at worst cheering for it.

Imagine going to work in the morning, being told to go and harass homeless people and throw away their only shelter, then going ahead and doing that instead of refusing?

None of this happens without compliant, complicit “officers of the law”.

Perception is wild.

Mainstream media reported on Ita Buttrose's testimony last week, describing her as 'confident', 'commanding', and 'professional'.

I didn't see that. I saw some entitlement. I saw privilege and disgust. I saw a genocide apologist resentful at mildly being held to account.

Labor just voted with the Coalition to kill THEIR OWN Nature Positive reforms🤯

Enough crossbenchers voted to keep it alive in the Senate for Labor to have passed their long promised reform.

The best and most effective carbon capture and storage plant is exactly that, tree’s.
The ALP/LNP duopoly are all too keen to embrace the gas cartel’s colonial vision for Australia’s future: FIFO workers at remote facilities exporting gas; reimporting carbon for vast profits; paying zero corporate tax; all while gouging Aussie consumers & manufacturers.🤦‍♂️ #auspol
