Your weak as dishwater response (and pretending to care) after the #MarchForHumanity #SaveGaza March on Sunday is infuriating!

I expect BOTH #Insiders' David Speers AND #abc730's Sarah Ferguson losing the Most Popular News Presenter Award to #ACurrentAffair's Ally Langdon will lead to ABC News Mgmt deciding they have to go even more tabloid trash gossip mag clickbait journalism in style. πŸ™„ #Logies2025

Photo of the Day.

Israel threatened reprisals if the press filmed Gaza from above during airdrops.

This is why. A scene of destroyed & burnt out buildings in what is left of Gaza City, the pre-war home to 800,000 people.

In today's presser, PM Albanese seems confused by #MarchForHumanity #SaveGaza march. He seems to think people are only responding to recent images of starving children, rather than being opposed to the Israeli occupation, #IsraeliWarCrimes & #GazaGenocide. He still refuses to #SanctionIsrael #auspol

BE WARNED! This fake news story (note the weblink) is using a fake News Com Au banner, claiming to be a Laura Tingle interview with the PM Anthony Albanese, promising thousands $$$ per month to investors in some AI platform. #scam #auspol

Actor @astounded.bsky.social used his moment on the #Logies2025 red carpet to raise awareness of the #GazaGenocide. He could have been focussed on himself or "the glitz and the glamour", but his gesture honoured a people's suffering and hope for freedom. #RecognisePalestine #FreePalestine

I marched yesterday. The texts sent by NSW Police were unclear and weren't received by every phone. THIS caused confusion. When I asked police face-to-face for instructions, both times they walked away while muttering unintelligible remarks. The crowd were outstanding. #MarchForHumanity #SaveGaza

It is obscene that ABC News continues to air "Israel says" propaganda when the Israeli Govt claim is a demonstrable lie. If, "for balance", you must report it incl. the disclaimer "falsely claims" if it's a lie. Here's the audio: www.abc.net.au/listen/progr... #auspol #IsraeliWarCrimes #GazaGenocide

Imagine in the pouring rain, in a crowd this size, before the march began I ran into a colleague I taught with some years ago! We marched together, and enjoyed a meal afterwards. πŸ‡΅πŸ‡Έ 😊

Reminder: If you hear anyone claiming the #MarchForHumanity #SaveGaza March across the Sydney Harbour Bridge today in support of Palestine is somehow anti-Semitic,the Jewish Council of Australia supports it. πŸ‘‡ And here's their full media release: www.jewishcouncil.com.au/2025/08/medi...

As of March 2025, the State of Palestine is recognised as a sovereign state by 147 of the 193 member states of the United Nations, or just over 75% of all UN members. Australia STILL does not recognise the state of Palestine. #auspol #RecognisePalestine #FreePalestine #MarchForHumanity #SaveGaza

#BREAKING | Al Jazeera found the RAF had flown 47% of all surveillance flights over Gaza during the genocide

More than double Israel itself

I don't think so. The "blacklisting" involves recalling Israeli ambassadors and discouraging Israeli citizens from visiting countries that recognise Palestine. I still expect Israel would try to influence politicians and journalists in Australia with its propaganda junkets to Israel. #auspol

The cracks are showing in what we tell ourselves about multiculturalism When our parliaments, newsrooms, judicial benches and many other institutions all look a certain way, it is clear who is at the centre of Australia's monoculture.

Israel has threatened to blacklist any nation that recognises the state of Palestine. So, I'm guessing Israel no longer supports a two-state solution? What will be Australia's response to this blatant bullying? Let me guess: strong words. #auspol #IsraeliWarCrimes #GazaGenocide #FreePalestine

Please! If you're able, and you support human rights, I encourage you to join the #MarchForHumanity #SaveGaza March across Sydney Harbour Bridge tomorrow Sun 03Aug25, in support of the Palestinian people, and in opposition to Zionist Israel's #GazaGenocide. And if you see me say "Hi!" #FreePalestine

He ran these as banner ads at the bottom of the front-page of major newspapers during the election campaign.

I look forward (at some point in the future) to Liberal MP for Goldstein Tim Wilson being charged with actively supporting the Zionist Israeli regime and its genocide in Gaza. #auspol #IsraeliWarCrimes #GazaGenocide

I have no connection to Dr Mo. Be wary of people who will claim they do and ask for money. I suggest the ABC #AustralianStory program will give accurate contact details. It will air on Mon 04Aug25 8pm.
