"If 'no one left behind' is to mean anything, Australia should immediately cut all military ties, close the Israeli embassy, and impose real sanctions on a state that treats our citizens and international law with contempt." #auspol

A group of Australian citizens were kidnapped on international waters and beaten on camera by their captors - Israel Jillian Segal, the most prominent Israel advocate in Australia, has so far said *nothing* about the welfare of her fellow Australian citizens, nor condemned Israel's brutal actions .

Israeli drones launched an airstrike on a vehicle in Zefta, southern Lebanon.

That governments across the world are outsourcing their data, IT infrastructures and surveillance systems to this man and his company, Palantir, is one of the most dangerous and irrational phenomena of modern times.

THREAD 🧵 An Al Jazeera investigation has found that military goods from at least 51 countries were sent to Israel, even after the ICJ warned in January 2024 of a plausible risk of genocide in Gaza and ordered states to help prevent it. 🔗: aje.news/2f90pn | #Infograph

Contributions to the Sameer Project are way down even as they continue to engage in life-saving projects, including indigenous water infrastructure building. This is anti-colonial praxis too. Please please give whatever you can 🌱🌱🌱

IDF takes pictures and videotapes the rapes & abuses, and upload them online to humiliate the victims. Liedtke said she's coming forward bc others can't. She says it's not her shame to bear. Her bravery is impressive!

Anna Liedtke of the #FreedomFlotilla was raped by Zionist soldiers. "I’m sharing it for all the women who experience sexual violence [and] on behalf of those who did not survive those attacks, those who cannot speak about it because they are still in prison." www.thecanary.co/global/world...

The only solution to Israeli war crimes.

During the night, a massive Israeli airstrike targeted a residential building in Al-Nuseirat camp in central Gaza.

Israel is a terrorist state. Just because most of the world’s governments are participating in an Emperor’s New Clothes scenario doesn’t change the facts.

During the night, Israeli occupation forces abducted several Palestinians in Bourin village, south of Nablus in the occupied West Bank.

A new @epi.org report found that US companies are spending more than $1.5 billion a year on union-busting consultants and lawyers. They’ll spend unlimited money crushing workers’ voices and then claim there’s no money for better conditions.

This lion is a rare example of ancient Egyptian sculpture in clay. It was found with a cache of royal sculpture in the temple enclosure at Hierakonpolis. In Egyptian mythology, paired lions often served as the guardians of entrances, and sculpted lions performed the same function in temples.

Locusts’: Organized looting, destruction of displaced Syrians’ homes by ‘demolition forces’ and regime-affiliated groups.

The Assad regime has also carried out looting in the homes of displaced Syrians, including in the Yarmouk camp. This is yet another example of how Israel is cut from the same cloth.

After discovering a recent article about LLMs fabricating analyses from nonexistent data (arxiv.org/abs/2603.21687), I did an experiment with our new lab-sanctioned chatbot. Well, here’s the result (in case that’s not clear, I never actually uploaded any grades-intro-cs.xlsx file).

Here is why we HAVE to stop eating commercially caught seafood — our greed is emptying the oceans of life. When the oceans die, everything dies.

“Our findings suggest human activities are playing a larger role in recent methane increases than previously thought – especially fossil fuel emissions in regions like China and India – while emissions from natural wetlands in the Amazon appear lower than expected,” Yu said.

John Menadue, with years of senior government, business & journalistic experience behind him, made a cogent submission to the antisemitism Royal Commission. Let’s hope the Commissioner gives it due weight. #auspol

Great pick up from @doubledown.news The far right English Defence League is described as having a “Jewish branch”. This reporting makes clear that the EDL & “Tommy Robinson” are products of the terrorist linked Jewish Defence League. The Islamophobia network “made” this thug youtu.be/QkhbsR4yiS0?...
