What is so shocking about Australian women on the flotilla being raped, is not that Israel did it (modus operandi) but that they knew that our Ausralian government would give them a free pass.
Why is there not more outrage in the community about our govt's behaviour?
Australia's wild brumbies. Thousands of wild horses in Kosciuszko National Park were slated to be shot from helicopters in June. Mares. Foals. Stallions. Entire family bands. Please call Australian Embassy at 202-797-3000 and express your opposition to this horrific operation.
This is what Elon Musk doesn't want you to see on this platform. This’s what your media won’t report.
Lebanon is being ethnically cleansed in real time.

OPEN LETTER TO MINISTER RE: BRUMBY SLAUGHTER
By Emma Hurst MP
An Open Letter to the NSW Environment Minister Regarding the Killing of Horses in Kosciuszko National Park
Dear Minister,
I write to you regarding the ongoing killing of wild horses in Kosciuszko National Park.
Few issues have generated as much community concern and distress as the mass aerial shooting taking place right now.
The last Government aerial shooting program was horrendous - as many feared it would be. Horses were found with multiple bullet wounds. Foals were killed, while others were left orphaned and vulnerable to starvation or predation.
Many people were concerned we would see a repeat of the Guy Fawkes aerial shooting program. In some ways, what happened may have been even worse.
That's why this second killing program has ignited even more outrage. It has highlighted to the public that these large killing programs do not work. The Government claim to have killed thousands of horses, but now claim the numbers have skyrocketed again. If this is true, what this points out is that aerial shooting is a band aid solution- it is not a long-term solution. The Government cannot justify further aerial shooting - period.
I want to you to take a moment to think about each of the animals this decision effects. The fear, pain, and long-lingering deaths that this aerial kill will undoubtedly cause the horses residing at Kosciuszko National Park.
We both care about the environment and native animals. The protection of Kosciuszko's unique environment is exceptionally important. But animal welfare is important too. We can recognise both truths simultaneously.
As elected representatives, we have a responsibility to seek solutions that ensure both environmental protection and broader compassion are considered. This may not be the easy road- but it is the right road. It involves proper community consultation, opportunities for rehoming, considering the latest science and technology and looking towards humane long-term solutions rather than going down the route of taking action simply for a headline that implies action is being taken, when we know that the action itself will cause great suffering and no long-term solution.
I therefore ask you to immediately cease the current killing program and convene a genuine roundtable involving environmental scientists, animal welfare experts, rescue organisations, brumby advocates, regional communities and other stakeholders to identify a practical and humane way forward.
I have personally been calling for fertility control since I was elected seven years ago. The heartbreaking reality is that if governments had invested in these solutions when they were first proposed, the killing taking place today may have been avoided.
Trials have still not been started- instead a report was released criticising the old outdated technology in this space, and didn't give any proper consideration to the latest technology that overcomes those issues. It suggests either a total lack of interest in humane options, or a lack of understanding around the issue and the latest technology. No decision this great should ever be made in either of those scenarios.
This issue has become unnecessarily polarised. I am hearing rehomers are being blocked out from rescuing some of the horses. This has become an aggressive campaign by the Government - it is heavy handed for no reason, and the victims of this will be the animals.
We must stop 'picking sides' for political purposes, and instead stop and find the best solutions for all involved.
I urge you to show that leadership now. The shooting must stop, and a humane path forward must be found.
Yours sincerely,
Emma Hurst MP
Member of the Legislative Council

Brumby supporters are camping out in the National Park as protest against the slaughter of the brumbies!!! Help us stop the slaughter!!! https://t.co/i6500FNtFi
Photo is for attention from a previous aerial cull - and this tragic little fellow has sadly lost his mother) In Australia we urgently need international intervention and public advocacy to stop the inhumane aerial shooting of thousands of brumbies in Kosciuszko National Park,
The @ChrisMinnsMP shocking smoke and mirrors toward the cruelty and cold blooded shootings of the Australian iconic Brumbies living in the Kosciusko National Park where some die of slow agonising deaths!
Wild horses face death from above in Australia
@thetimes
The culling of wild brumbies will resume in Kosciuszko National Park this week, despite public outcry
It's so inhumane to shoot these horses from the air, leaving them to die slowly and painfully

Please don’t scroll past this.
The reports coming out of Kosciuszko National Park are making me sick.
Brumbies are being aerially shot right now, many Australians are devastated by this cruel and brutal attack on these horses.
People are travelling to the area and putting themselves at risk because they are so desperate to stop this.
Australians are not being heard, we are being ignored, and are sick with worry that by the time the rest of the public becomes aware of what is happening, it will be too late.
We need help. Reports are coming in of supposed protocol breaches, including allegations that quad bikes are being used to herd horses into the line of fire.
Please look into it for yourself, ask questions, and decide where you stand.
These horses cannot speak for themselves.

Join @MlcHurst and call on the NSW Environment Minister to reject the Draft Kosciuszko Wild Horse Management Plan and instead support the use of fertility control in sensitive areas of Kosciuszko National Park.

Trump just admitted that making money for himself and his friends is one of his main motivations for this pointless war.
He also admits that the American people are seen obstacle because they “don’t have the stomach” to pay the cost of the war for him.
