Across the western world Palestinians are being silenced for being visibly #Palestinian.
Supporters of Palestinians must not stop.

Josh Frydenburg is right now using the mass murder of 15 people to raise his own public profile again, presumably as a precursor to securing his political re-election and thus a potential run at a future Prime Ministership.
