Under new registration rules, Israel has barred Save The Children, one of the oldest & best known in Gaza, where it helps around 120,000 children.

The impact will be catastrophic on any survivors of Israel's genocide, @albomp.bsky.social.

Is this also a "value" you share with Isaac Herzog? #auspol

Pieces like this physically hurt me.

@albomp.bsky.social's lightning fast to condemn violence towards Jews in florid language, but his silence for 809 days since the genocide started .. is profound

Words "ceasefire" & "two state solution" are meaningless

Headlines fade, but the need does not.

In Gaza, homes are still destroyed, food is still scarce and children are still going hungry. As winter ramps up, it’s as important as ever that we not forget about those families still in need.

In December 2023, Isaac Herzog was pictured signing bombs to be dropped on the men, women & children including babies of Gaza.

In December 2025, the prime minister of Australia @albomp.bsky.social invited Isaac Herzog to visit with him in Australia.

This story should be framed not so much about ABC management's 'defence' of Tingle and Ferguson.

The trial of Anthony Albanese. The Z-lobby wants to find him guilty but this government has done more for the J-community than any other. So what’s actually going on? Politics, of course, and the court of public opinion should throw the case out. #AUSPOL open.substack.com/pub/newpolit...
The trial of Anthony Albanese
The Bondi Beach memorial was hijacked to force Albanese to act in a way that fully supports Israel’s interest, even though, essentially, it’s what he’s being doing all along.

The NSW parliament is about to pass a law empowering the police to prohibit all public assemblies in whatever area they specify, for 14 days when a terrorist incident has been declared (also by the police). Clearly unconstitutional, even if you accept a direct link between protests and terrorism.

Western nations colluding with Israel to televise a genocide and demand we all go along with it is an exercise in destroying empathy, democracy and human rights. If we accept it, which we currently are, the next wave of brutality will target us directly.

Israel must be brittle and weak. If they're trying to make it so it's illegal to criticise and protest a genocidal apartheid state in distant colonies far away, that must mean Israel is extremely vulnerable to the truth. And the establishment is choosing fascism to deal with it.

Sussan Ley completely lacks what it takes to be Prime Minister or even lead a political party.

What a grubby nothing of a person she has revealed herself to be this past week.

I suspect many Jewish Australians would be disgusted by how grossly she has used this tragedy.
