The Israeli state keeps offering example after example of why its existence in its current form is incompatible with peace and any hope of dignity or justice for Palestinians. It simply is not interested in any of these things and it is well beyond time that Western leaders recognised this reality.

This is the situation I refer to the most when trying to explain a the state of book bans right now. Utah has state mandated book destruction for books like Oryx and Crake by Margaret Atwood, and Damsel by Elana K Arnold. The vast majority of the books are written by women.

This risk has always existed because Parliament can do what it wants. But the risk has always existed in the same way that there has always been a risk that you'll be killed by a homicidal clown. It's just that now like four people you know have died to homicidal clowns in the last two years.

Complaints to NZ Media Council require you waive your rights to take any other proceedings against the publisher. If the BSA is scrapped, broadcasters should expect some of the complaints that would've gone to the BSA to instead go to court. It will be costlier to everyone including broadcasters.
