The key thing to understand is that he has been trying to do this all along. It is not new. He in fact did this with the Dural caravan fake bomb nonsense, hyping it up as terrorism in order to pass new rushed laws when he and authorities knew from the outset that it was staged. He is not fit to lead

I totally agree with the Jewish Council here.
I will continually speak out against the Netanyahu Govt’s killing of 20,000 innocent children in Gaza.

The bodies were barely cold before opportunists like Segal, Frydenberg, Howard, Burns and Ryvchin, racialised the Bondi attack and tried to own the tragedy. No commentaries have noticed that the killers' IS ideology does not care about Gaza, mocks HAMAS and rejects Palestinian nationalism.

You CAN condemn what happened to the Bondi Jewish community and you CAN oppose the genocide and you CAN oppose Oct 7 and you CAN condemn the oppression Gazans faced before that, without it justifying anything that came next.

The committee that settled on the phrase “underscoring his determination to challenge scientific orthodoxy” should be dissolved and its members compelled to take a remedial course on the scientific method.
Breaking News: Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said he personally instructed the CDC to abandon its position that vaccines do not cause autism. The move underscores his determination to challenge scientific orthodoxy — in this case, that vaccines save lives — and bend the health department to his will.

Shoutout to Rooney Mara; and oh no what will Olivia Coleman and Emma Stone do now? Oh no they will never become famous
Under new head of Paramount David Ellison, the studio has drawn up a list of actors who opposed the Gaza genocide and will not allow them to appear in its films and TV shows.
Does this sound familiar?
Also, "Ellison is reportedly aiming to take over Warner Bros. next."
