Australia has always been a reliably supine lapdog to US foreign policy...with perhaps a brief lapse during Whitlam period. Whereas both Canada and NZ have always taken a more independent stance more in line with their own national interests. And haven't suffered for it.

I've had multiple people message tonight about some Zio proganda fest on the ABC and I gotta say I'm pretty ok with having no idea what the fuck they were talking about. Just cut the cord already, why would you ever listen to habitually news that lies about genocide and war?

Penny Wong says the reason the war on Iran is worth supporting is it will
β€œkeep Australians safe”

Supporting an illegal war for regime change with no evidence of a threat will not keep us safe. It will create a new wave of terrorist groups & who hate us like after Iraq. #auspol

Dozens killed as Israeli special forces raid Lebanese village in search of 40-year-old remains Overnight, one Israeli operation saw at least 41 people killed and 40 injured, according to the Lebanese health ministry.

Israel is behaving like a medieval state.

This is fucking insane.

It took two hours for Albanese to declare support for the latest US/Israeli war crimes.

How long has it taken the Labor Party to consider raising the rate? To halting fossil fuels? To seriously address the racism to First Nations and Muslims?

The ALP in your head is long dead.

Australian gas producers reap windfalls as Iran war chokes global supply Santos, the country’s second-biggest listed oil and gas producer, finalised a deal with a commodities trader at more than double recent market rates.

We should be taxing the fuckers into the ground.

Israeli ambassador says it’s β€˜mind-boggling’ to question legal basis for war on Iran Israel’s new ambassador says Australia was on the β€œright side of history” by backing strikes against Iran as he warned against calls for a ceasefire.

"Israel’s new ambassador to Australia says it is mind-boggling anyone would question the legality of the US-Israeli strikes against Iran"

it is mind-boggling that this propagandist for a genocidal apartheid rogue state is cited as an authority on international law.

The hardest part of a limited two-week military action is the first several years.

Albanese has now admitted that Australians were onboard the US nuclear sub that sank an Iranian vessel and left the crew to drown, in a violation of international law. This was always an inevitability of AUKUS. End AUKUS now.

Labor has so many reasons to get Australia out of AUKUS.

Canada sees it’s a dud deal and doesn’t want to join any more.

There’s another illegal Trump & Netanyahu war in the Middle East that Australia should not be supporting.

Adelaide University cancels literary festival event with UN Gaza investigator Francesca Albanese Festival organisers criticise the university for last-minute booking cancellation of event headlined by special rapporteur for Palestinian territories

Adelaide Uni - Academic freedom, freedom of speech!

Francesca Albanese - Great, let's discuss human rights, war crimes, and genocide.

Adelaide Uni - Oh, not that much freedom. Cancelled, soz.

Genuinely pathetic and embarrassing cowardice.

Guardian live blog extract: Headline: "US attacked Iran 'pre-emptively' after learning Israel was going to launch strikes - Rubio"

Text:
"The US attacked Iran β€œpre-emptively” on Saturday to protect US forces from retaliation after learning that Israel was going to strike, Marco Rubio told reporters on Monday.

The US secretary of state said: β€œThere absolutely was an imminent threat. And the imminent threat was, that we knew that if Iran was attacked, and we believed that they would be attacked, that they would immediately come after us. And we were not going to sit there and absorb a blow before we responded.”

He added: β€œWe knew that if we didn’t preemptively go after them before they launched those attacks, we would suffer higher casualties.”

Six US service members have been killed since Saturday."

This justification of an "imminent" threat is extraordinary. The US's position is that it had to strike because it knew that its ally Israel was going to attack and induce Iran to respond
