No disrespect to all who died or were captured 2 years ago @albomp.bsky.social
You fail to mention any abuses prior to 7 Oct; or resistance to occupation is a right. Just a reminder: Nelson Mandela & ANC were once labelled as terrorists.
History will not judge Australia kindly, so thanks for that!

No wonder you went quiet on the Voice referendum. It's loud & clear: you have no intention of listening to First Nations voices. Shame on you, charlatans & posers. You preside over our own slow genocide; no bombs, just 1000's of cuts to body & soul

@australianlabor.bsky.social more smoke & mirrors, watch the boys club of Cook & Albanese do another backroom deal. We don't have a minister for the environment, Watt is the minister for fossil fuels

Somewhat curious about this immediate msg when trying to go to the Australian National Press Club website just now; an earlier attempt today definitely showed Chris Hedges in the list of speakers for upcoming events, same msg if you try the link to NPC Speakers #auspol

Screen shot says 'connection has timed out' - this is the immediate response when attempting to go to the Australian National Press Club website today 6 Oct 2025

Department of Defence emails show that a website dedicated to Australia's role in the global F-35 supply chain used by Israel to maintain its jet fighters was removed at the start of the war in Gaza.

Emails show government 'quietly' removed F-35 website at start of Gaza war

Make recognition meaningful. A majority of Australians want you to take action NOW. You cannot wait for the phony ceasefire, Israel is already ignoring Trump's stated 'command' to stop bombing Gaza, & the deadline for Israel to quit illegal settlements in Palestinian territories.

Hi Maggie, wondering if you watched the video?

jc2042.bsky.social @jc2042.bsky.social · 5d

Or, we could listen and learn from the First Nations people who carry the knowledge of how to manage fire to promote and protect the environment we all live in...whereas letting cattle into national parks will have it's own destructive impacts

That job is to act in the interests of Australian citizens, which to me means don't squander taxpayers $ on MTC on Nauru, USUKA, Elbit systems, housing for USA defence, Fossil Fuel subsidies...the list is a long one of failures so far.

Not strictly a reply, just wanted you all to see this. I messed up post so
That's Dr Mustafa and Mal Frankcom with friends in Braidwood last Sat: a memorial for Zomi, a weekend of fundraising for Dr Mustafa's work for children in Gaza. So far the count is at about $20,000.00. Awesome for a tiny town

jc2042.bsky.social @jc2042.bsky.social · 15d

It's past time for the UN to prove it goals & objectives go beyond words. Take action now. At the very least, where are the UN members with navies protecting the flotilla of food & medicine into Gaza?

The ALP's sensible center (political spin) and the great abysmal divide in the LNP.

The LNP fissure has turned into an insurmountable crevice for Sussan Ley to bridge because of Andrew Hastie and his supporters, which include Jacinta Price (and Gina Rinehart & Advance Australia),

Zomi Frankcom's friends & family seeking JUSTICE, as well as remembering.
@albomp.bsky.social absented this event...but Mal Frankcom & Dr Mustafa did...THEN jumped on flights to those same UN meetings (see @australian.guardian.com photo of Mal with @senatorwong.bsky.social ) 🤔

These two guys traveled many hours to be present; to remind us that Zomi & others deserve justice. They called on us not to give in despair, maintain hope & compassion, & that justice will come.
