Why does ABC News think it’s okay to show helicopter (or worse - drone) footage of a deceased woman (or any person) being lifted into an ambulance?!? Thoughtless and cruel to family and friends! Unbelievable! Do better!!!

@australianlabor.bsky.social This is now a part of our national story. History books will record that the Australian gov supported the genocide in Palestine. Military and governmental support to Israel to starve and kill innocents. No real attempt to stop it.

I feel physically sick to my guts seeing how Trump and Vance have treated Zelenskyy in the Oval Office. I’m disgusted! Australia CANNOT morally or ethically continue to partner with this US “government”. We need to condemn the US behaviour and leave AUKUS. Ukraine deserves our unconditional support!
