This is darkly funny. But part of the problem with Donald Trump is that this is how people have dealt with him for the past 75-plus years.

Long story short (and friends in Europe, please take note):

This approach DOES NOT WORK.

Trump is trying to sell Palestinian sovereignty for $1 billion per seat while Palestinians are still being bombed and starved under the so-called “ceasefire.”

This isn’t diplomacy, it’s profiteering off genocide. Australia better not touch this with a 10-foot pole.

When Trump wanted 🇺🇸 to ‘own’ Gaza 🇵🇸, Francesca Albanese gave us invaluable advice

It’s never been more relevant:

‘Stay calm’
‘The international community is made of 193 states’
‘This is the time to give the 🇺🇸 what it’s been looking for’

‘Isolation’

As ever, the letter-writers bring the wisdom.
We have a crisis of leadership at so many levels, and you only need to look at theocratic and repressive states to see that harsh, arbitrary rules and punishment do not make a society safe or harmonious.

Labor and the LNP demand that we have social cohesion in Australia, and then constantly manufacture fights about everything to ensure that they hit the news cycle and are seen to be 'relevant'
Apparently it's called 'leadership'
Would be good if a journo could ask them about that
But you know, it’d be nice if we could have rationally considered policy based on its merits rather than political gamesmanship.
Just once this year
Whether or not the #Coalition's concerns are legitimate, almost all are the result of their decision to push #Labor to move quickly. #Albanese has plunged the #Coalition back into rabble and chaos. #Ley's leadership position is as tenuous as ever. #Auspol

It is perfectly reasonable to simply state in your submission that inadequate time has been provided for consultation and the bill should not pass until this has been remedied. Of course, say more if you want to and have time, but inadequate consultation is a sufficient objection in and of itself.

Not one person has lost their job or been forced to apologise for supporting Israel’s genocide.

You can support the mass murder of Muslims & you will never be in danger of losing your job in media or politics or the arts or business or education.

Suggest Israel are wrong, & you will be targeted.

A fair description of our ally @albomp.bsky.social
We are the shithole nation. From Caracas to Greenland to Minneapolis, we are the problem in the world, we are the source of the tragedy, we are the affront to all human dignity. This is the United States now. We are the evil.
NEWS: In a heartbreaking video, after ICE shot and killed a woman in Minneapolis, a woman who was in the same SUV cries out: “They killed my wife. I don’t know what to do."

“We stopped to videotape, and they shot her in the head,” the distraught woman sobs.

@albomp.bsky.social I am sure you have had the same advice from the Office of International Law in the Attorney-General’s Department
Professor Jeffrey Sachs addressing the UN security council today—

"In the past year the US has carried out bombing operations in 7 countries, none of which were authorised by the UN security council and none of which were undertaken in lawful self defence under the charter."

One from the Canberra Times, which accused Albo of gaslighting the population. I’ve never seen the CT go so hard on an issue and I noted in an earlier post that it looks like the Zionist lobby has got to them big time.
