A pathetic piece from Bongiorno in which he:
- whitewashes the visit of genocide enthusiast Isaac Herzog,
- positions Albanese as a statesman above the fray of extreme reactions, and
- completely ignores the influence of the Israel lobby.

Confirms the decision to cancel my subscription last year.
Israeli president Isaac Herzog praised Albanese as “an important world leader” for his legislative response to the massacre. It was the ultimate repudiation of Sussan Ley’s crude politicisation of the atrocity, writes Paul Bongiorno. satpa.pe/Txnhq2f

Israeli violence in the West Bank isn't as dramatic as in Gaza, but it is methodical, durable, and sometimes harder to understand. Here’s how Israel is using settler terror, financial policies, and legal tactics to suffocate Palestinian life.

"cognitive devolution... the influence of global capital. That we have allowed this system to exploit us, to fill our bodies with carcinogens & micro plastics, condemning the future of our own children, surely means that we have little agency of who we are, where we are going, & where we want to be"

Last words before Robodebt 6 findings are published. Saturday Paper’s Jason Koutsoukis reports on the still unnamed 6 who implemented unlawful cruelty. This scandal has exposed the failure of both the Commonwealth public service and the National Anti Corruption Commission.

Meanwhile, the Australian government consolidates its commercial links with this merchant of death and state terror, Palantir. #auspol
Palantir is suing the Swiss magazine Republik who pointed out Palantir's links to ICE and the Genocide in Gaza, which caused the Swiss Government to call them a catastrophic threat and ban Palantir from Swiss Government.

When someone says their country executes pedophiles and you respond by claiming that they are calling for the execution of Donald Trump, you are revealing that you know Donald Trump is a pedophile.

Thank you for you attention to this matter.

Modifying thermobaric bombs to prolong their impact and increase temperature to double that used by crematorium ? Israel is one, sick, evil, country, and so are government leaders like @albomp.bsky.social

Israel used thermal mass destruction weapons in Gaza that made thousands 'evaporate'

Israel's “vacuum” or “aerosol” bombs disperse a cloud of flammable vapour that is then ignited into an enormous explosion. @skwawkbox.org reports

Anyone currently involved in federal immigration enforcement, every officer, every bureaucrat, every lawyer, every judge, is a member of the most evil group of people this country has seen since Reconstruction. Darkness personified, every one. Doing this to children is beyond depraved.
On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.

The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.

But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

Trump let slip there are 1.5m people left in Gaza. There is no point simply quoting ‘found body’ death numbers without qualification

I’d call what’s happened over the last two and a half years an industrial scale political and media disinformation campaign.

This young Third Reich fan is allegedly a star to a third of Republican staffers. His popularity has surged after he was re-platformed in the collapse of ethics in the communications platforms that has accompanied the Trump era. You need to see what young “conservatives” are watching.
And just like that, Gilead was no longer dystopian fiction.

"I personally witnessed four sexual encounters that the Plaintiff was forced to have with Mr. Trump during this period, including the fourth of these encounters where Mr. Trump forcibly raped her despite her pleas to stop."
🚨 In 2016, a federal lawsuit was filed in NY naming Trump as 1 of 2 alleged RAPISTS of a 13 year old girl.

The plaintiff, alleged in 1994 she was held as a SEX SLAVE in an apartment belonging to Epstein (2nd defendant in the case).
