The demand for a royal commission into the Bondi killings reflects media and political pressure rather than any clear investigative necessity.

There is no international law now, but that of the jungle. Might is now right. No one can appeal to morality anymore. Trump is no better than Putin & Netanyahu. All the flowery talk in the US constitution about ‘we the people’, checks and balances, and separation of powers is exposed as vacuous.

Not one person has lost their job or been forced to apologise for supporting Israel’s genocide.
You can support the mass murder of Muslims & you will never be in danger of losing your job in media or politics or the arts or business or education.
Suggest Israel are wrong, & you will be targeted.

It’s hard to believe a president would time an illegal military attack to distract the public’s attention, but today is the statutory deadline for DOJ to release its report on the Epstein file production. Maybe it is just a coincidence.

It would be practically and legally impossible to hold a royal commission that goes anywhere near the actions or motivations of the accused killer, before his criminal proceedings are concluded, which could take years. That limitation would render the royal commission itself pointlessly premature.

RC into Bondi is unwarranted.
Most pressing need for RC is into media ownership - its role in stoking division in society, its effect on the democratic process, and the diminishing level of truth in journalism (with particular reference to Murdoch)
