"You are not likely to see Henry Nowak’s words stenciled on a mural. No corporation will change its logo. The same establishment that made a few words immortal when spoken by a black man in Minneapolis has met the same words, spoken by a white boy dying on a British street, with what can only be described as a determined, institutional silence. That silence is not neutral. It is a statement. It tells you exactly whose suffering the system has decided counts, and whose does not."
🚨 These bombshell revelations by @SharriMarkson about the Bondi slaughter are shocking.
Sajid Akram was flagged twice to the National Security Hotline, in 2007 over his interest in explosives, and again in 2014 over ISIS sympathies and possible travel. Both alerts went to ASIO and the AFP… but they were ignored for nearly 20 years.
“This revelation will trigger alarm about why these early warnings and confidential tip-offs about Sajid Akram were missed. And not just missed once, but twice. And apparently by two agencies, AFP and ASIO.”-@SharriMarkson
AFP and Border Force knew the family was travelling to terror hotspots, Uzbekistan as a gateway to Afghanistan, the southern Philippines the month before the attack, Saudi Arabia, yet NEVER flagged it to ASIO or the NSW Police who issued the gun licences. ASIO’s 2019 assessment missed those explosive red flags completely.
And counter-terror funding was slashed from over 23% to just 19% of intelligence resources, even as the threat level was raised to ‘probable’.
Ignored warnings. Complete breakdowns in sharing intelligence. Resources stripped away when we needed them most. Our security agencies seemingly let us down when we needed them most.
Was this tragedy easily avoidable?
The White House is currently on lockdown after dozens of gunshots ring out. Reports are that a gunman has been killed by Secret Service.
It's unfortunate how accurate my cartoon has become.
The fascinating thing about ancient Greece is it did have diversity and this is obscured by the Oddeissey rewrite.
There were Athenians, Lacedaemonians, Corinthians, Argives, Thebans, Megarans, Macedonians, Phocians, Locrians, and Ellans.
This Hollywood rewrite is culturally appropriating the ancient Greek myth to serve an anti-Western cultural agenda.
Nolan isn't "adding diversity" to the Odyssey. He is obscuring the diversity that is already in the story.
I joined @TheCalebBond on @SkyNewsAust to discuss today’s Giggle v Tickle decision but I’m honestly still in shock. And I’m angry.
Angry that men who claim to be women are not only women in law, but have more rights than the actual women the law was designed to protect.
Angry that women and girls have been told, once again, that our spaces, boundaries and safety matter less than men’s feelings.
Angry that this insanity is being championed at the highest levels by ideologically captured governments and institutions.
Angry that @salltweets has been left to carry this burden for the past 4.5 years when our politicians could have fixed our laws in an instant.
No more cheap talk about women’s rights and safety. Parliament must fix the Sex Discrimination Act NOW.
I will have more to say when I’ve read the full decision. But until then - and always - men still can’t be women.
