1970: Bertrand Russell on Palestine
The tragedy of the people of Palestine is that their country was 'given' by a foreign power to another people for the creation of a new state. The result was that many hundreds of thousands of innocent people were made permanently homeless. With evert new conflict their numbers have increased> How much longer is the world going to endure this spectacular wanton cruelty?  It is abundantly clear that the refugees have very right to the homeland from which they were driven, and the denial of this right is at the heart of the continuing conflict. No people anywhere in the world would accept being expelled in masse from their own country; how can anyone require the people of Palestine to accept a punishment which nobody else would tolerate? A permanent settlement of the refugees in their homeland is an essential ingredient of any genuine settlement in the Middle East. Bertrand Russell 1970.

Utter madness from the far right.

There is no such fucking thing as "antifa" except inside their tiny little fascist minds.

Never forget this: The forces rigging our economy, undermining our democracy, polluting our planet, and stoking hatred are counting on you to give up. Cynicism is how they win. Stay clear-eyed and ready for the fight ahead.

The mainstream media loves making it seam like dysfunction in Washington is coming from both parties.

Hello?

Much of the GOP no longer accepts the rule of law, or the norms of democracy, or the legitimacy of the opposing party.

Enough of the false equivalence.

So is ABC or any media going to show us or spk to any Palestinians who are miraculously still alive after 2yrs of daily bombings by Israel? Seems pretty one sided at the moment. Palestinians wrongly held captive by Israel are also being released today, barely a mention.

A trillionaire who helped create exploding cars that crash and rockets that explode and who stole data from all Americans and who proudly performed a Nazi salute and who played a significant role in crashing democracy.

Esp if said trillionaire seems to have made it his goal to destroy democracy, decency & empathy across the globe

Musk is probably one of the single most dangerous humans of our time

Teachers are burnt out from doing School Admin paperwork because it's been dumped on them because Admin departments have become non existent, plus new subjects that were never teachers jobs, teachers have had every social problem dumped on them to clean up with kids, it's wrong

Unless we have a properly built debarment regime we will be back here again. The Govt must have the power to impose appropriately apportioned bans (for up to 5 years) from Govt contracts for bad behaviour.

Access to social media for kids is not the problem, it's what social media companies allow on their sites and worse still what they won't take down even when authorities tell them too, Governments need to tell companies to remove it or we will shut down your platform

Speaker Johnson: "People’s faith in the government is at an all time low.”

Gee, I wonder why?

Crazy race, but I think the 5 second penalty for taking out the leader of the race so close to the end of the race was definitely not enough, they should have never been allowed to take a place on the podium

Safety car now, that puts the cat among the pigeons

They sure can Ian, if any driver keeps it on the black stuff they're in with a chance, it's going to get crazy if we get another safety car

Powerful speeches at the Sydney pro-Palestine rally in Hyde Park today before a large and engaged crowd. So many great signs but this was sadly my favourite. Thanks Palestine Action Group Sydney. #auspol #SaveGaza

OUR tax dollars are being used to bail out Argentina, OUR troops are being put on the ground in Israel & OUR soil is being used by Qatar for a military base of their own.
While OUR government is shutdown.
Anyone who believes OUR so-called “president” when he says he is “America first”, is an idiot.
