Have been watching the antisemitism RC closely & struggling to find actual examples of antisemitism. Zero institutionalised racism, segregation, or systemic exclusion like First Nations people still face. Examples lack evidence & rely on hearsay.
Clearly just a massive beat-up.
Husic really not holding back on the Israeli Embassy’s intervention into Labor’s policy platform.
“It’s out of their playbook”💥
Says they’re seeking the same type of “leverage” they have in the US.
And that it’s time for “concrete steps” against Israel. “Not just statements”💯
A tonne of work went into this. Not just me but the organisers, the protesters and our First Nations. Please give it a look. Donate to The Shot so we can keep doing this (we only take funding from supporters) and help get the word out. I'm tired. Thank you

Ed Husic for PM! He's the only sitting Labor member (that I know of) that consistently speaks out against the TERRORIST STATE OF ISRAEL. PS. That's why he was demoted to the backbench (and also speaking out about the AUKUS SCAM got him demoted quick smart too).
I am extremely proud of this achievement. We have distributed more than 100 parcels of fresh and assorted fruits and vegetables, each weighing 12 kilograms, to families facing very difficult conditions.
You cannot imagine the happiness we saw on people’s faces, especially the children. Seeing them eat fresh fruit with joy after a long time of deprivation brought a feeling to my heart that cannot be described.
We are still continuing our humanitarian projects. We have delivered more than 100,000 liters of fresh drinking water to camps and areas in need, and we continue distributing food parcels and supporting families.
The United States has military bases in approximately 80 countries.
Not 8. Not 18. Eighty.
There is no other nation on earth with more than a handful of foreign military installations.
The United States has entire base ecosystems: multiple facilities, tens of thousands of personnel, prepositioning of weapons and vehicles and aircraft on every inhabited continent.
And the word used to describe this, in American political discourse, is not "occupation."
It is not "empire."
It is not even "presence."
It is called "security commitments."
The language is doing everything.
The language is the whole operation.
Because a "security commitment" sounds like something you offer to a friend. It sounds bilateral. It sounds consensual. It sounds like a favor.
It does not sound like what it is: the physical infrastructure of dominance.
The material fact of a single nation that has decided, and enforced the decision for eighty years, that it will have a military footprint on every strategically significant piece of land on earth.
And that any nation that objects to this will discover what the footprint feels like when it comes down on them.
Security commitments.
Eighty countries.
The most militarized nation in human history is the one that sets the global agenda on peace.
And somehow that sentence is not the first line of every newspaper every morning.
Isreal’s supposed
“Purity of Arms” doctrine - 1988 In 1988, Israeli Defense Minister Yitzhak Rabin ordered soldiers to beat and break the bones of Palestinian protesters to crush the First Intifada uprising.
