Poor Karl. Fails to understand that it was the testimony of actual SAS that has been pivotal to the decision to charge Roberts. Fucking imbecile.

Anyone who has served knows the most important command is to at all times protect the Unit Therefore for 21 members of his unit to come forward & give evidence against him thus exposing the Unit, knows this must have been so far outside the rules of engagement to be extraordinary No doubt he did it

Wowza. So the #GenevaConvention, written by people who had lived experience of war should be ignored because Karl nobody Stefanovic picked the wrong guy to glorify. What is wrong with these pathetic excuses for men? #murderISmurder

Well, Karl, you could go in committed to not murdering unarmed men, women & kids. But also, why the actual fuck are our SAS going ANYWHERE to fight? No-one is threatening Australia. No-one has tried to invade Australia since WWII. We must STOP fighting in OS wars for the USA & UK. #auspol

Unverified video appears to contradict White House Navy claim: 'Forced to turn back' www.rawstory.com/iran-war-267... Well, we all know this Regime Lies, Lies, and Lies some more; ya can't believe one single word emitted by them!

That’s a nice way of saying “CH-CHING!” If anything tax fossil fuelled vehicles higher to disincentivise them. There should be a no holds barred push to get people into EV’s. I just returned from Sydney and i reckon it’s 1 EV to every 4 or 5 vehicles on the road.

On Sunday Catherine King told Insiders they don't want to disincentivise EV uptake "at all". ICYMI that's the opposite of what Chris Minns told me in March - he said fuel shock meant there's no harm in taxing EVs www.afr.com//politics/fu...

Just the worst possible time to implement a new tax regime on a product that we should be actively promoting as a country! #EV #Batteries #NEM #BatteryMetals #RareEarthElements

Trump and Netanyahu’s war with Iran immediately closed the Strait of Hormuz, they continued the war allegedly to reopen it, eventually agreeing to a ceasefire with Iran to open it, now the US plans to blockade it themselves. These are not allies. End AUKUS, sanction Israel.

Did I mention Labor, One Nation and the Coalition all cheered this war on. They wanted it. The war parties are reckless with Australia’s future. One party, the Greens, opposed this awful, destructive and illegal war from the beginning.

And the USA and evict them from Pine Gap

The only Ambassador they should be throwing out is Israel

Yes buying F35 jets where the US knows their exact location would not be a strategic move. Better buy the Swedish Gripen, which you can hide dispersed on countryside highways.

Beyond me why people are still tuning into Insiders Change your viewing for the better youtu.be/BFivajgqZYs?...

Please find an hour to watch this - real Aussie journalism unconstrained by US/Israel minders in MSM #auspol #iran #freepalestine

The USA has also chosen not to accept Iran's terms and continue to pursue death and destruction of the environment and the global economy over peace, and the hard work of a negotiated relationship.

I complain about terrible journalism and journalists in Australia all the f'n time. Fortunately, there are also exceptions to the rule. This morning on Sunday Shot we're chatting with the excellent @amyremeikis.bsky.social and Stephen Long. Join us. www.youtube.com/watch?v=BFiv...

Albo is shaping up to be one of the worst PMs we've ever had in terms of his actual & seemingly blatant disrespect for humans & their lives and his sycophantic sucking up to big business & their profits.

Obvious lesson from the war on Iran is that hosting American bases unsurprisingly makes the host a target when America goes to war. We are through the looking glass, needing American military protection because we host American military protection. Mine for MWM michaelwest.com.au/what-would-x...

Instead of piling all the onus onto us individuals, how about some of the larger transport freight shippers, retailers, warehousers, manufacturers and distributors start reducing your interstate road linehaul? Coles, Woolworths, Amazon and all the rest - here's a chance to do your bit for all of us.

How about we shift some linehaul road freight from road to rail? Even today's diesel hauled trains use just one third of the fuel per tonne-km of road. Just 1-2% of freight between adjacent interstate capitals currently goes by rail, and there's plenty of capacity. www.abc.net.au/news/2026-04...

Because of concerns about the safety of using US Tech, France is getting rid of Windows from its Government computers. It's time, get all US Big Tech, Microsoft, Google, Palantir... out of Europe. It is a security threat.

Given Coles has entered a three year partnership with Palantir you know what to do folks #auspol #BoycottColes #USpol

#Auspol @albomp.bsky.social Rightly you and all decent Aussies are against anti semitism, how about also being against Genocide, land theft by Israel IE Lebensraum and illegal wars. Time to speak out against Israel like we proudly did with Apartheid South Africa. Doing nothing makes us complicit.

Reading about Plan Dalet in Ilan Pappe’s “Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine” was one of those life-altering moments for me.

If they can murder people in Gaza, in Venezuela, in the West Bank, in Cuba, in Iran, in Lebanon. And nobody does anything. They can murder anyone, anywhere and nobody will do anything.

Nethanyahu’s Israel State along with its vassal Trump US State are both ‘terrorist’ authoritarian fascist nations. Both have brought world to the brink of nuclear war. Both are an existential threat to world nations. The beating of the drums of war are getting louder by the day. #auspol

I don’t think people around the world realize how bad the attack on Lebanon was today. It’s BAD. Like 9/11 BAD. Hospitals are overflowing and do not have enough blood. We still don’t know what the death toll is. This is TERRORISM. Pure and Simple. April 8. Never forget.

We reiterate the urgent need for Israel to uphold its obligations under international humanitarian law. Israel has an appalling track record of carrying out unlawful attacks in Lebanon and displaying a callous disregard for civilian life, fueled by the impunity Israeli officials feel they enjoy.

How to vote cards are designed for lazy, complacent voters - the sort of voter that does enormous damage to this country and other Australians Preferential voting means YOU can control your own preferences and build YOUR vision for this country in your vote suebarrett.substack.com/p/how-prefer...

Words cannot describe just how evil Israel is.

Another missed opportunity by Albanese? Clearly there's a gracious escape route here for Albanese to draw down the "alliance," drag $368Bn back into the Australian economy and reduce the number of American personnel on our shores - and become more self-reliant on our own defence (not offence)

2013: Alone among 7 commissioners of the Australian Human Rights Commission, Tim Wilson never had to apply for job. He never had to sit for an interview, be screened by an expert panel, or undergo the rigorous weeks-long selection process that applied to the others. www.smh.com.au/national/geo...

Fascinating, Zelensky coming out publicly more and more and saying that Trump is working with/for Putin. The Ukrainians seem to have determined that telling the truth is preferable to lying to please Trump.

It’s like the Australian Govt is going out of its way to prove that it doesn’t deserve our respect and as a result, our future vote.

Note Australia’s absence

Iran's 10 points, which Trump said he'd accepted, included - literally - that the ceasefire included Lebanon. The US administration is a clown show.

#Australia #Iran Australian Labor government secretly sends SAS to join the war against Iran The Special Air Service Regiment was evidently sent in mid-March, showing that nothing the Albanese government says about the war can be believed. www.wsws.org/en/articles/...

A tragic figure of incompetence and impotence.

One of the biggest, but not only, disappointment of this Labor government. She has a lot of colleagues in this category. Hubris seems to be widely settling in.
