CPJ calls for Anas Al-Sharif’s protection in face of Israeli smears - Committee to Protect Journalists New York, July 24, 2025β€”The Committee to Protect Journalists is gravely worried about the safety of Al Jazeera Arabic’s Gaza correspondent Anas Al-Sharif, who is being targeted by an Israeli military ...

Just two weeks ago, the Committee to Protect Journalists called for Anas Al-Sharif’s protection.

He was subject to repeated Israeli smears that were believed to be the precursor to his assassination.

The IDF have admitted they targeted him tonight. Because they know there will be no repercussions.

The answer is Yes. Israel has killed over 1200 Palestinians gathered at food distribution sites since May. An IDF soldier called it "a killing field."

The Australian govt should immediately announce $500m funding for mRNA vaccine development.

Get those scientists here.

Just an amazing opportunity handed to us by the brain worm infested loon.

AI (artificial intelligence) requires huge data inputs, including the original intellectual property created at great expense by all content makers. US AI tech giants must compensate Copyright holders. Our Productivity Commission’s proposed AI exemption will destroy local creativity. πŸ‘‡

Young people deserve representation in the parliament. What is the point of this fkn article other than to shame someone for not being born in the 1970s? Shock horror - 20-somethings are among us and sometimes they are in the parliament.

While the the Australian media squibbles on about the dangers yesterday's anti war demo on the Bridge produced, few seem capable of reporting more Gazans have died than the number of Australians photographed on the bridge.

How Did Hunger Get So Much Worse in Gaza? Less food is going into Gaza now than during most other times in the war. Hundreds of Palestinians have been killed while heading toward aid sites. Many others are suffering from serious malnutrition,...

Antisemitism training designed by pro-Israel groups is becoming compulsory at US colleges. What’s in it? Training asks students to attribute the statement β€˜every time I read Hitler, I fall in love’ to an β€˜anti-Israel activist’

US students are being forced to attend political propaganda sessions in which facts are distorted and issues conflated. It looks like the kind of "re-education" imposed by dictatorships.
I speak as someone fiercely opposed to antisemitism:
*This does not help*.

Catching a few glimpses from self-identified writers of "Well, everyone is using AI, so I have to too, otherwise how else can I keep up?" And seriously: GFY.

Also lots of discussion of how to attract more readers with very little "have you tried being a better or even good writer?"

President Trump calls on emaciated Gazan children to be more grateful for the American weapons that have killed some 18,000 of them and helped starve almost all of them.

You Don't Want to Know Where Scientists Just Found 27 Million Tons of Plastic For years, scientists have struggled to solve the

27 million tons of nanoplastics now haunt the North Atlantic.
It rains plastic. We drink it, bleed it, and breathe it.
The question is no longer how bad it is, but how long we can endure it.

We're undergoing an unprecedented loss of freshwater across the planet Rising temperatures are causing water to evaporate and driving humans to extract more groundwater, which is moving freshwater from the land to the seas and creating a "continental drying" trend

Since 2015, freshwater loss from land β€” mainly from pumping groundwater β€” has contributed more to sea level rise than melt from Antarctic ice sheet. πŸ§ͺ
