FWIW, the quoted 2023 Defence web page appears to be archived at Trove, here: webarchive.nla.gov.au/awa/20230426.... It wasn't at the several other web archive services that I checked, which is a little unusual.

Keep pretending this is OK?
Jewish people are not the only people who are semetic. By denying Palestinians this. You are being antisemetic.
They weren't protesting for HAMAS. They were protesting agsinst the Israeli zionist thugs. @albomp.bsky.social just showed his zionism.

Labor could have decided to fund public education fully. They chose to starve them for another decade.
Australian governments led by the major parties have knowingly denied an entire generation the education they deserve.

Why would an Australian want to die for the flag with the Union Jack of a failing Great Britain in its corner?
Why would an Australian want to fight under a flag which represents the brutalisation of indigenous people?
Or a flag worn by bigots & racists?
The UAE is an authoritarian autocracy, a petro-state with no income tax for citizens, to bribe them for the lack of democratic voice or free speech

The scope of this headline has a stench ...
Were it only American support lacking - it is global condemnation, as it should be for GENOCIDE
Australian news papers unable to boldly tell the truth, in an age where self-censorship fits the current hidden govt agenda with Segall and "Schultz"
"The claim by the PM, premiers and their education ministers that public schools will be fully funded by 2034 is a blatant falsehood"
We've reached the point where I dare anyone - quote a government minister who describes policy truthfully
Add that to his already 34 criminal charges. Between him and Bondi, they have a lot of pardoning to do.

They really don't like playing fair do they? Always wanting to steal your time and your worth.
Would you give up your overtime pay, penalty rates, and rest periods in exchange for working from home?
No? I mean, why should you have to trade in your rights? This isn't a swap shop.
This, however, is what employers are currently asking for at Fair Work. It's wrong, and unions will fight it.
Of all the evil things Howard did, the NT 'intervention' takes it. And your Labor political party enthusiastically pressed on with the shit.

You can joke about Pam Bondiโs ridiculous unprofessionalism all you want, but Iโm deeply shocked by it: She acts as if she fears absolutely no consequences, convinced that there will be no more political power transfers. โ This should shake everyone to their core.

But they wonโt ban gambling advertising & other key recommendations even though most experts say it WILL work
