We stood together against anti-Palestinian racism and they cancelled our festival. So we organised our own.
Very tired now, but very proud of Constellations!

WH official: “We want to seize all the oil from Iran. The long-term benefit is getting massive oil reserves out of the hands of terrorists.”

NEW BLOGPOST: Keir Starmer and David Lammy are taking an extraordinarily dangerous gamble with our individual liberty
For any MP unsure of how to vote on the government’s proposals to restrict trial by jury.
In my initial reaction, while ridiculing Wong's absurd statements, I also noted that it was highly unlikely that she was telling the truth about having no intelligence about the strikes, or being uninvolved in them, as a member of the Five Eyes alliance, and knowing as we all do about Pine Gap. In the past two days, we have heard the following: • Australia did in fact have a role in providing intelligence to America and Israel. • Two American P-8 Poseidon planes arrived at Perth's RAAF Base Pearce on Monday afternoon and one military source claimed the arrival of the aircraft was "unexpected". Australian and US officials refused to comment on the presence of the P-8s which are primarily used for reconnaissance but can also fire torpedoes or harpoon anti-ship missiles. • PM Albanese says we have deployed "military assets" to the region • Three Australian sailors were aboard a nuclear-powered US submarine when it torpedoed - and sank - an Iranian warship off the coast of Sri Lanka yesterday, killing over 80 people on board.
I’m aware that it’s a lot, but the speed of news at the moment is such that it’s important to slow down and lay out the various pieces so the full picture can emerge. And when you do, you realise the degree of bullshit we’re being fed by a craven and frankly evil elites in politics and the media.

The newly amalgamated Adelaide University brings utter shame upon itself in its first months of operation.
In a statement following this shocking act, it risibly claims it is a place where "exchange of ideas can happen freely".
Not if the ideas include a defence of the remaining Gazans, it seems.
And 165 non-artificial schoolchildren were blown up by all this advanced and precise targeting. Congrats to everyone involved on achieving this brave new world.

Richard Hanania tweet: Has any theory in international relations been more discredited than blowback? It turns out you can just kill bad people and everything is fine.

"Unquestionably blindly following the Americans is, in my view, the wrong thing to do.. I'd pass legislation that said military action could be taken if.. the lawful case for it was made.. there was a viable objective &.. you got consent of the commons"
When's the vote, Keir?
We now see you for what you are. The three war parties: One Nation, the Coalition and Labor who have never seen a US war they don't want to back in. Millions of Australians disagree with you. They want a government of principle, they want a government of peace.

Remember the western media's constant refrain that Russia's invasion of Ukraine was "unprovoked" – despite years of documented western provocations.
Iran did nothing to provoke the Israeli-US attack. Yet notice this: not one media outlet has described the attack as "unprovoked".
When you gain the admiration of actual fascist supremacists, it may be time for for some self reflection.

Does Iran have a right to defend itself?
Just checking because I’m a speech writer for the Prime Minister and we’re not sure if we should apply language evenly across every conflict and all the bosses are busy eating croissants at the trough.

So Albanese:
- supports [unspecified] US action against Iran, even if illegal
- "stands with the brave people of Iran in their struggle against oppression”, but has said nothing about Trump's or Netanyahu's oppression
- is again proving we are a vassal state.

The US and Israel are bombing Iran. Anyone reporting it as “preventive” is engaging in propaganda, by definition. There is no interpretation of what’s happening as anything else than a crime.
You don’t have to like the Iranian regime to understand why this is bad.
In my utopian vision of the future, instead of offloading all the pointless, annoying work tasks (like reports that none one will read and needlessly opaque forms) to robots, we restructure work and society so that the pointless tasks don't happen at all.

So, any other news yesterday?
Anything important?
People will tell you that Reform are still a substantial threat, that Goodwin did what he could in a tough seat, and that it’s immature to gloat about an arrogant twerp losing his composure so thoroughly in defeat.
People with no sense of occasion.
The "most moral army in the world" captured a Gazan doctor at a hospital, tortured him, then brought him a tablet showing a livestream of his home, called in a strike that killed his six-month-pregnant wife, and made him watch until the rescue crew pulled her body from the rubble. #GazaGenocide
