Hmmm...we could build 47,000 new homes annually and solve the housing crisis...
or
Keep giving our gas our gas resources away for free to foreign owned energy corporations.
Weird the Government is doing the latter 😕

Entire Palestinian communities across Area C of the occupied West Bank are being erased from lands they have lived on for generations by Israel's accelerating policy of ethnic cleansing and annexation.
Sign the petition and call on world leaders to halt Israel's ethnic cleansing of Palestinians in the occupied West Bank now and end its unlawful occupation: https://t.co/0AutaRXNx3

Former Labor Foreign minister rips Albanese a new one:
“Belief US would defend Australia in event of an existential attack is a ‘ludicrous delusion’.”

“The ABC’s Managing Director Hugh Marks has said Charlie Pickering’s comments about Grace Tame didn’t breach ABC’s code of conduct. Very weird given Antoinette Lattouf was told she’d breached the ABC code of conduct for posting a factual Human Rights Watch post”
@MarkOgge@Tony_Burke@AlboMP@SenatorWong As a nation it is so wrong that we continue to allow Israel to continue its genocide unchallenged. As an Australian who served in the defence forces I am horrified at our political stance.
Fascism does not arrive saying “I am fascism.” It arrives saying “law and order,” “border security,” “anti-woke,” “election integrity,” and “national emergency.”
@implausibleblog We do not have:
1. The Geneva Convention"
2. International Humanitarian Law
3. The Rome Statute
4. The International Criminal Court
Trump and, in particular, the inaction of all western countries has obliterated this norms.
Sometimes, I feel like I'm living in some kind of a parallel universe. The fucking brazen audacity of these shameless cretins to propose banning Russian soldiers from entering the EU while allowing Zionists to go from the EU to Palestine and commit the very worst of war crimes and return home without fear of santion. How did these evil people get to rule our lands and our lives?
@AlboMP@SenatorWong
I can't believe how low you will sink. And you justify your support how? International law is no longer in effect, partially thanks to you, and the ICC is marginalised, partially thanks to you. I hope you both have trouble sleeping as this is not Australian
Israeli minister calls for kidnapping of Lebanese women and children to break Hezbollah morale
——
Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir urged the political-security cabinet to abduct and imprison Lebanese women and children as a psychological warfare tactic against Hezbollah, according to a closed-door leak published by Hebrew news outlet Walla.
During a high-level ministerial meeting reviewing expanded military calculations, Ben-Gvir demanded that Tel Aviv abandon conventional strategy and explicitly target the social and familial core of the Lebanese resistance network.
"We must think outside the box regarding Hezbollah," Ben-Gvir asserted to his fellow cabinet members, according to the report. The Israeli minister added that alongside occupying southern territory and intensifying lethal strikes on personnel, Israeli forces should actively round up civilians.
"We should arrest their women and children and take them to prison; this is what hurts them the most," he stated.
BREAKING:
Israeli settlers are burning Taybeh in occupied Palestine.
A village that has stood for thousands of years.
A place where Jesus once walked.
Home to the oldest living Christian community in the world.
And not a peep from Western mainstream media.
This is an abomination, should never be allowed. The basing of US military at HMAS Stirling and Tindal air base in the NT mean total loss of sovereignty and has massive implications to our $ spend on military equipment, its type and our force posture. The last being so important
Why did every Australian government from Chifley to Rudd, 1945-2010, not allow permanent US military bases in Australia?
Because when you allow bases you give up sovereignty.
Gillard changed it, and now, as a US diplomat told me, Australia is effectively under US occupation.
One of the most brutal scenes in human history has been leaked.
The moment the tents of displaced people were bombed in the southern Gaza Strip, in the Mawasi area of Khan Yunis, killing more than 500 civilians.
A video that the world must never forget.
@Logically_JC America has to be one of the most capable countries that does not look after its citizens. It reflects the culture of the individual, not working for the collective good.
