ICYMI, this was an excellent interview with Chris Hedges. Kudos to Dave for getting this exclusive. But there is a key question arising that mainstream media pretend they don't have to answer: Why are Australian journalists so scared to confront the truth about Israel and Palestine? #auspol

News dot com spruiking "huge news" about Mason Cox's career. Short of running for parliament, it's hard to see how a 34 y.o fringe player could generate huge news

#ChrisMinns ( @chrisminnsmp.bsky.social ) exaggerated the scale of #antisemitism in NSW – & won't apologise The #NSW premier had Australia believe #antisemitic hate was running rampant. Police data has shown that to be false. www.deepcutnews.com/p/chris-minn... #AUSPOL #NSWpol #IsraeliLobby #Zio

Pope Leo XIV has blasted how wealthy people live in a “bubble of comfort and luxury” while the poor suffer. In his first teaching document Thursday, Leo confirms that he is in perfect lockstep with Pope Francis on matters of social injustice.

Labor of course do not need one single vote of the LNP to pass any laws, so they are choosing to make the laws weaker.

News that shocks no one: Carbon offsets do nothing for climate.

ABC’s John Lyons has slammed Israel for wiping out an average of 28 children in Gaza “Every Day. Week in, week out, month in, month out” Lyons “There are on avg. a classroom of Palestinian children in Gaza today, who this time tomorrow will be killed by an Israeli bomb”😳 #Abc

Serious question: What's stopping the State of Illinois from arresting Stephen Miller & charging him with incitement? The Senate didn't confirm him. He's just a guy. At some point, the states MUST use their authority to prosecute, because the federal government certainly will not.

Anyway, Mr Hedges will be speaking @ RMIT in Melbourne/Naarm on Friday, OCT 17 about 'Palestine Betrayed: Reporting on a Modern Day Genocide'.

A note written by Susan Abulhawa. I agree with every single word. Zionists of the world, we can see what you are. And we won’t forget. We see you. (Got my trigger finger on the block button. There is no debate.)

ICYMI, National Press Club is the latest institution to cave in to the Israel lobby. At least it helps explain a mystery: why Australian mainstream media has been so reluctant to investigate the capitulation of our institutions to the Israel lobby. #auspol chrishedges.substack.com/p/the-nation...

Pathetic by the National Press Club open.substack.com/pub/chrished...

I don’t buy for one second that Trump voters didn’t know Project 2025 would be his playbook. They just didn’t think it would touch them. Oops! CNN needs to own its role too, letting Trump lie unchecked and pushing that lazy “both sides” framing between him and Kamala Harris.

It needs to be said that by rebranding Charlie Kirk's views as moderate by both right wingers and liberal cowards resets the extremist views he held as normal and pushes the Overton window to the far right

Hey @australia.theguardian.com - the synagogue arson attack is a newsworthy antisemitic hate crime. But why lead with a lecture from the butcher of Gaza? And neglect to mention that he has an ICC arrest warrant for war crimes and crimes against humanity? 1/2... www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

The conversation the Australian government should have with the Israeli Ambassador is when he will be expelled for his governments criminal, calculated & callous violence in the Occupied Palestinian Territories. Oh, and cancelling all trade, defence & intelligence sharing immediately.

Fascinating. It sounds like @chrisminnsmp.bsky.social has something to hide. Very interesting how all these attacks seemed to subside after criminal projects and an unnamed foreign national actor was named. (We definitely have a (small) Neo Nazi problem but the media depicted as other.) #auspol
