Okay, but this won't stop the genocide, @albomp.bsky.social.

You need to ACTβ€”
SANCTION Israel
IMPOSE a total arms embargo
EXPEL the ambassador
BREAK THE SEIGE
SUSPEND ALL TRADE AGREEMENTS until Israel ENDS the GENOCIDE, the APARTHEID and the ILLEGAL OCCUPATION

Burnet's pathogen air sampling symposium reinforced the potential for air sampling applications, particularly in healthcare settings, while highlighting the importance of sharing standardised methodologies across the research community.

At the moment of truth, in the face of a genocide, it turns out far right US politicians and commentators like Marjorie Taylor Greene, Steve Bannon, Matt Gaetz and Piers Morgan have more moral fibre than @australianlabor.bsky.social

The IHRA definition of antisemitism, in conjunction with hastily added laws, seeks to make opposition to genocide a hate crime. Dismantle this. Anywhere this definition holds power over an institution, genocidal ghouls are trying to silence dissent against their slaughter of Gaza

One Last Swipe: Australian Taxation Office still punishing whistleblower Richard Boyle - Michael West Richard Boyle argues he shouldn’t have a conviction recorded against his name for blowing the whistle. The ATO thinks otherwise.

Richard Boyle didn't act with any malice. But it's hard to conclude the ATO isn't doing so in its endless pointless pursuit of this brave man.

Australia has a gas export problem.

Australia Institute research shows 80% of Australia’s gas is exported by foreign-owned gas corporations...who then tell us we have a gas shortage.

Australia has enough gas, it's where it's going that's the problem.

I feel a little sick seeing this image of someone extremely complicit in Israel's genocide trying to save face. Expressing dismay for the horror she's enabled while peddling the BS of a two-state solution (Which Israel has literally never wanted) is peak centrist bullshit

A year after Israeli politician Moishe Feiglin invoked the mass murder of our Jewish ancestors in the Nazi holocaust as a model to take over Gaza, the calamity of the Israeli government’s genocide has reached a new and staggering level of mass violence.

From @theguardian.com: The Israeli government knows how much food is needed in Gaza. It has been calibrating hunger levels for decades, initially calculating shipments to exert pressure while avoiding starvation.
