🚨After caving into the mining & logging lobby, Labor & Liberals have just voted together to kill the Govt’s own nature laws.
A shocking capitulation to the vested interests.
Labor has abandoned the environment. The Greens never will.
We will fight for our forests and koalas at the ballot box.

Just A-grade pure cowardice.
This is genocide, ethnic cleansing, and the United States suggesting it will seize and occupy the lands of the Palestinian people. And the Australian prime minister can't even offer an opinion.

What he's announcing is a concentration camp. A deeply illegal, unconstitutional, anti-human rights atrocity. Anyone who supports this is complicit. Anyone in any federal service, military or otherwise, is morally obligated to refuse to carry out any orders related to this deeply criminal act.
Trump announces an executive order authorizing a 30,000 capacity migrant detention center in Guantanamo.
"Some of them are so bad we don't even trust the countries to hold them because we don't want them coming back, so we're going to send them out to Guatanamo Bay."

Cognitive dissonance: your political/media class is busily normalising an incoming US administration which is openly racist and whose de facto leader just did a Nazi salute, while simultaneously wringing its hands about the mysterious "rise of antisemitism".

Words matter. They're chosen for a reason. The ABC's coverage of this slaughter could serve as a lesson for media students wanting to understand how consent for atrocity is manufactured
The language of the commentary about the ceasefire is telling. On the ABC they speak about the swap of Israeli "hostages" for Palestinian "prisoners".

So, quick background, Australia’s pro-Israel attorney-general last year outlawed display of Nazi gestures & symbols, claiming it was happening at pro-Palestine protests.
So far, a man was prosecuted for a swastika on a sign that read, “Israel is a Nazi state”.
You know who hasn’t been prosecuted?

Occasional reminder that there’s no, “it’s too late, its over” for anthropogenic climate change. Every molecule of CO2 that doesn’t go into the atmosphere makes a difference. Preventing 0.1 degree of warming makes a difference. Every bit of climate resilience we build together makes a difference.

The sad and inevitable truth is in another 10 years, when it is all said and done and it is irrefutable Israel committed a genocide in Palestine, there will be many a handwringing think piece from those who defend Israel's actions now, claiming 'we didn't know'. They know. Remember that they knew.
