I must have a very bad memory b/c I cannot for the life me remember any of these self-serving playactors calling for Scott Morrison's resignation after an Australian man groomed by years of blatant Islamophobia from political and media arenas flew to NZ to murder 51 Muslims. 🤷🏻♀️ #auspol #BondiBeach

Last week, footage emerged of two Palestinian men in Jenin being executed by Israeli soldiers after it appeared that they had surrendered.
Itamar Ben-Gvir, the far-right national security minister, said that the forces involved in the killings have his “full backing”.

A horrendous report on ABC radio from a Brisbane doctor doing a second tour in Gaza with Medecins sans Frontières. She says the ceasefire is in name only, the genocide continues and the deprivation of basic food, shelter and resources means even the injured haven’t what the need to heal.

Stop treating Barnaby Joyce as a serious politician.
He is a drunk and a bufoon.
He is at the end of his political career for well documented reasons.
If you have the opportunity, just pass him his hat and coat.

The western media always refers to “the hostages” as those held by Hamas.
Apparently they are too lazy to access the readily available evidence,
or so imbued with an attitude of dehumanising and ignoring Palestinians (aka racism),
that they rarely mention the hundreds of hostages held by Israel.
