Former free range farm kid & lapsed Catholic. Still hate the nunsπŸ˜‚. Love life, laughter & good humans. Tired of so called leaders who sell fear, want war & treat people like stepping stones to power. Thrive on the clever & funny folk on social media.

All praise for political cartoonists.
They say in a single phrase what needs to be said by the mainstream media & western governments / leaders.
Any comment @senatorwong.bsky.social

As western governments & media lapped up the Israeli government murder & lie program - political cartoonist analysis continued to succinctly deliver the truth.
Why?
I guess political cartoonists were the one group Israel forgot to buy off.

RFK is surely starting Genocide by stealth, isn’t he? The military won’t be happy but I imagine his policies are going to be as effective as their guns!

Meanwhile how many nations in the Pacific are facing imminent threat?
Oh white people are affected ABC…I see…well of course we need a story then!

Marwan Barghouti is a giant. He will inspire generations & generations for good. He is the leader Israel fears so much they have to lock him up.

An increasing number of world governments are defying the US to recognise a Palestinian State. Trump has ended US global policy supremacy in 6 mths! Meanwhile he flies off to have talks with Putin…Donald is the only person who doesn’t know what Putin position will be eh?
