What a sick man.

What a sick world.

Israel murdered Australian Humanitarian aid worker Zomi Frankcom in cold blood - no action from our government.

Israeli soldiers sexually assaulted and abused Australian activists on board a flotilla - no action from our government.

israelis have been comitting genocide for the last 3 years, slaughtering 10's of 1000's of children in the process - no action from our government.

Someone please tell me: WTF is going on here??? https://t.co/jAUFZE5YCT #IsraelIsATerroristState #FreePalestine #auspol

Jon Snow was a giant and a fearless interviewer…
Three clips I’ll never forget
When he grilled the current Israeli President Isaac Herzog (minister back then) in 2009
When he pummeled Mark Regev (the Eylon Levy of that time) in 2014
And his heartbreaking report about Gaza also in 2014

[Tucker Carlson @TuckerCarlson]

At some point every Holocaust museum will be forced to include an exhibit on what’s happening in Gaza right now. It’s only a matter of time. Dr. Nick Maynard of Oxford University medical school has been a witness to the genocide.

Perhaps, then, you could restore the graves of Australian diggers you bulldozed in Gaza. The hypocrisy is next level.

[Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur oPt @FranceskAlbs]

Cancelling a Palestinian intellectual to pander to the absurd whining of the pro-Israel lobby backfired. It should not have taken a genocide to get here. But the arc of history is now finally bending.

@antoinette_news Defamatory. He should resign.

[Antoinette Lattouf @antoinette_news]

I'm not a lawyer, but can an expert shed some light on Premier Malinauskas comments about
Randa Abdel Fattah in the video below? Seem defamatory.
For all the talk about combating hate speech ... these remarks sound hateful, grossly offensive and damaging .

[Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur oPt @FranceskAlbs]

GAZA. The so called peace plan is allowing Israel to "finish the job": 450 killed; 2,500 structures destroyed; lifesaving aid blocked.
The human rights movement will not allow those responsible to run away from justice. It is not matter of if. It's matter of when.

Is it a good idea to hold a major event like the FIFA World Cup in a country where the Rule of Law no longer exists

[helen nassar @helennassa]

@jk_rowling Selective feminism on display. Huge disappointment. Where was your solidarity with the women and children of Palestine during the Gaza genocide (which is ongoing) Shameful

Once again, the New York Times sells Israel's genocide in Gaza as law enforcement:

This is another masterclass from the New York Times in how to sell genocide as law enforcement.

According to today’s headline, “new Israeli rules” mean “suspensions” of aid groups from Gaza – that is, the forced expulsion of 37 humanitarian organisations from Palestinian territory illegally occupied by Israel.

These aid groups organise most of the field hospitals currently operating in Gaza and set up after Israel destroyed the enclave’s proper hospitals. The groups also run emergency shelters, water and sanitation services, and treatment centres for children with acute malnutrition.

Israel’s “registration rules” are a death sentence for a homeless, destitute Palestinian population left vulnerable to starvation, floods, winter cold and disease by Israel’s two-year destruction of their homeland.

Who is to blame? Apparently groups like Doctors Without Borders, Medical Aid for Palestinians and CARE. Why? Because they are “resisting” Israel’s “rules” to “provide detailed information” on their staff in Gaza – information Israel has used time and again to kill those aid workers.

As Doctors Without Borders point out, “we support one in five hospital beds and one in three births” in Gaza. Israel, it added, was “cutting off life-saving medical assistance for hundreds of thousands of people".

Another organisation affected by the new “rules”, the Norwegian Refugee Council, noted that Israel had killed hundreds of aid workers in the past two years. “For us, it is a safety concern for our staff. And acknowledging who they are – it puts them at risk.”

The New York Times wants you to forget who is the criminal here.

It is Israel that’s illegally occupying Gaza and other Palestinian territories – and has been for decades.

It is Israel that has bombed Gaza into the Stone Age.

It is Israel that has ethnically cleansed Gaza’s people from their lands, driving them into ever smaller concentration camps on those ruins, surrounded by Israel’s “yellow line”.

It is Israel that has starved the people of Gaza for months on end by blocking all aid.

It is Israel that’s killed at least 600 aid workers, 1,700 medical staff and 250 journalists in Gaza over the past two years.

It is Israel that has eradicated all Gaza’s hospitals and health care facilities, leaving its maimed and starved population vulnerable to infection and disease.

And it is Israel now expelling aid organisations vital to keep this homeless, bombed, maimed, starved, orphaned, traumatised population alive.

Criminals don’t get to set the “rules” – because the rules they set will, by definition, serve their criminal agenda.

Israel has not hidden that agenda. It wants to eradicate Gaza and its population. It has destroyed the people of Gaza’s homes and the infrastructure they need to survive – from hospitals and schools to sanitation services. It has blocked aid and food, and is now driving out the emergency aid organisations that served as a sticking plaster to keep this population just barely alive.

Israel’s goal is to make life so desperate, so impossible, that the rest of the world will consent to the expulsion of the Palestinian people from Gaza on “humanitarian” grounds.

The New York Times, like the rest of the media, are using language to persuade you that none of this is happening.

Before, the crimes were justified as a “war” – one to eradicate Hamas.

Now, during a supposed "ceasefire" in which Israel keeps killing Palestinians, the crimes are justified as a new, different way of ordering affairs in Gaza, again supposedly needed to root out Hamas. The aid organisations are apparently the ones causing difficulties by “resisting”, by flouting the “rules”.

This is the language of genocide laundering, of genocide denial. It has a long and ugly history.

The Nazis and their media termed the rounding up of Jewish populations from the ghettoes they had been forced into as “evacuations”. Those sent to death camps were “resettled”. And the gas chambers were where “detainees” received “special treatment”.

This terminology of good administration – of rules, of order, of suspensions, of resettlement – is needed to numb us to the barbarous reality of the horrors unfolding minute by minute in Gaza. To echo this anaesthetising language, as the New York Times does time and again, is more than just a crime against journalism. It is a crime against our common humanity.

Without the assistance of media like the New York Times, the genocide would have been simply impossible.

Krishnan Guru-Murthy: "Phase 1 of the ceasefire is Gaza is holding, but its precarious"

@FranceskAlbs: "The ceasefire is not precarious, its not existent. Since the day the ceasefire was proclaimed nearly 400 Palestinians have been killed by the Israeli army in Gaza"

[Anthony Albanese @AlboMP]

Ahmed, you are an Australian hero.

You put yourself at risk to save others, running towards danger on Bondi Beach and disarming a terrorist.

In the worst of times, we see the best of Australians. And that's exactly what we saw on Sunday night.

On behalf of every Australian, I say thank you.

[Assal Rad @AssalRad]

If you condemn the horrific, antisemitic attack in Bondi Beach while still defending genocide in Gaza, you’re not actually outraged by the killing of innocent people.

It’s not hard to condemn both, unless you think some lives are more valuable than others.
