What’s happening today is going to have ramifications for Australian art and speech for a long time.
Read @NourHaydar’s reporting on it.

It must be our priority to exit AUKUS immediately—we cannot tie our security to American imperialism, not only because it directly endangers us, at exorbitant cost, for no gain, but also because they are demonstrably engaged in crimes against humanity.

Albo and Dutton should categorically rule out sending troops to Gaza. Panama and Greenland too.

So much respect for @antoinette_news' , her composure and tenacity in the face of such hostile ‘gotcha’ line of questioning from ABC’s defence is formidable.

"Ita Buttrose pushed for Antoinette Lattouf to be taken off-air, asking why she could not 'come down with flu, or COVID or a stomach upset?' after receiving a tranche of complaints about her."
Ooft. Can't wait to hear what Ita has to say on the stand.

I'm finding it very hard to comment on events in the Middle East. The indifference and even enthusiasm towards the indiscriminate bombing of Arabs and Muslims speaks to something deeper and dark. It never went away. But I never thought I'd see it presented so unapologetically.
