There were 69 journalists killed in all of WW2. 63 in Vietnam. The Israelis have killed more than 200 in Gaza. Deliberate murder to silence reporting.

Let’s shout this loud & clear so maybe President Trump will hear it.

President Zelenskyy is the democratically elected leader of a sovereign country, a hero who is bravely standing against the illegal invasion of Ukraine by a murderous ACTUAL dictator called Vladimir Putin

Folks should remember ONE thing about the coalition - & for that matter, RW ideology & oligarchic strategy..

They NEVER factor in the human cost of anything they do. It’s immaterial.

Human cost to them equates to extra expenditure that they need to enrich themselves and their rich ASSociates.

Trees are losing the battle against climate change
Climate change, wildfires, and disease are pushing trees to the brink. They aren’t regrowing in cooler areas like scientists expected.

No surprise coming from the man who walked out on the Stolen Generations apology.

The irony is that this cheap hollow nationalism does nothing but deepen divisions and drive more Australians to distance themselves from the Australian flag that has the British flag in the corner.

Unprecedented stupidity. That's it, in a nutshell.
The devastation on its way is unimaginable - like nothing humanity has ever witnessed before - and everyone will wish they had been climate activists and ‘hysterics’ when they had the chance. We are in a moment of unprecedented stupidity

Dutton's nuclear 'plan' would devastate the planet. Dutton serves the fossil fuels industry only, supported by the mainstream media (incl. our ABC). Will these facts be reported by other news media (even our ABC)? 😠 #auspol #energy #nuclear #renewables #climate www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

As a Jewish woman living in Australia, I am far more likely to be attacked and murdered by a pathetic little man who feels somehow slighted than I am in danger of any antisemitic attack.

The imbalance in the responses to almost 100 dead women is very telling.

Cartoonist David Pope nails it. Albo is trying the "middle road" position that both Israeli AND Palestinian lives matter. Dutton is a fanboy for Netanyahu, who has been charged with war crimes by the #ICC. Meanwhile, everybody knows that Israel is committing #genocide. 😔 #auspol #GazaGenocide

Cutting people off payments who have no other income is not what #SocialSecurity is for. Mutual Obligations have created “work” for JobSeekers, not found them work. #auspol
Exclusive: JobSeeker payment system errors prompt review
The hunt for ‘anomalies’ in the JobSeeker compliance system will take months and the Department of Employment is unable to say if it is legal.

Don’t think of Dutton as an ex cop, that was a brief career, think of him as a Queensland property developer.

Think of the morals and care for the community of a Queensland property developer.

The sort that trades under half a dozen different names.

Queensland property developer, Peter Dutton.

In fairness to Sussssan though, she doesn't confine her ignorance to Israel/Palestine issues. She maintains it across the board. Consistency is one of her virtues.
