Need to have ‘safe’ mechanisms to protect whistleblowers because these guys are powerful

When an inhumane formula works for vulnerable people who live with disability, why not apply it to vulnerable aged Australians?

Thank you, @jewishcouncilau.bsky.social. #auspol #HerzogNotWelcomeHere

Helicopters, metal detectors, snipers on roofs in Bondi??

Australia feeling really socially cohesive right now, so glad the government decided to make that a priority 🫠

🤬🤬🤬

Still wondering why & how he was allowed to be here.
The power Israel has over our govt is frightening!

They say 'Jump!" & our Govt says "How high?"

This visit only shows how powerful they are & what our politicians will do to appease them.

*footnote*
Calling out Genocide is NOT antisemitic!

I'm pretty sure that very few Australians needed the President of a nation state actively engaged in genocide against its neighbour, to come here and scold us on how we should be nicer and less critical of said genocidal nation state 😑 #auspol

Palestinian babies and toddlers are freezing to death in wet tents, because Herzog's regime has bombed 90% of dwellings in Gaza into rubble, and is refusing to let international aid agencies in to provide adequate shelter, health care, medical supplies & food aid.

But at least his hair stays dry.

The Australian government is being co-opted into Israel’s PR machine.
That should never been allowed to happen

Honestly, wasn’t going to attend the Melbourne rally. Not much of a protest attending type. But just watched Herzog dismiss a question about 70’000 dead people by saying “we didn’t start it”. I’ll be going along now. Fuck him & the Israeli government & its murderous troops.

The Zionist lobby, antisemitism and Herzog Australia’s political and media response to Gaza, including the invitation to Israel’s president, reflects the influence of pro-Israel lobbying and the shrinking space for lawful criticism.

"In the name of balance our media gives credibility to Israeli propaganda. No one would think that we should give equal treatment to those who deny the Holocaust. Neither should we give balance to those who deny the continuing Holocaust in Gaza today."

“Hey @apnews.com, would you use the same language if 30 Israelis were killed today?”

The new hate laws will only matter if hate directed at Aboriginal people is taken as seriously as hate directed at powerful groups. Anything less is just the same double standard we’ve become sadly accustomed to.

🟥 In Gaza, Israel has recovered its one remaining Israeli captive, Ran Gvili. It’s all over the news.

What’s not in the news is that more than 10,000 Palestinians remain unaccounted for and buried under tons of rubble.

Perth Invasion Day rally bomb incident investigated as ‘potential terrorist act’, police say AFP flag further changes possible after footage released of alleged bomb being thrown

Police are treating an incident where a man allegedly threw a homemade bomb at an Invasion Day rally in Perth on Monday as a “potential terrorist act”.

Analysis: Attempted bombing in Boorloo exposes Australia’s selective outrage on racism The attempted bombing at an Invasion Day rally in Boorloo/Perth must not be treated as an isolated incident.It is part of a longer, deeply entrenched pattern of racism and violence directed at First P...

The lack of media attention and comment from politicians etc has highlighted Australia's racism to Indigenous people.

Honestly! Why did it take so long for the media to call it a bomb?!! #auspol

My thoughts are with you all from Australia.

We are being gaslit by successive govts in the thrall of bad actors promoting the use of fossil fuels. Meanwhile our communities and farms burn & we pay the price! #climatechange

I cannot emphasise enough how Australia's political and media class are destined to enact the worst outcomes (authoritarianism, race hate, violent suppression) to the Bondi terror attacks, even as the broad population generally supports the least-bad outcomes (community-building, gun control etc)
