In the midst of Trump’s depraved, lying and delusionary speech to the nation yesterday, not many commentators—while debunking Trump’s transparent attempt to disrupt the November elections—pointed out that over the decades, the biggest disrupter of elections in foreign countries, along with overthrowing many governments outright, has been the United States.
Ask Central and South Americans how many times the CIA and other agencies interfered in their elections. So frequent that they saw it as normal, however abhorrent. The hubris of Empire! -R
Andrew Wilkie was the only serving intelligence official in Australia, the UK or the US to resign publicly before the Iraq invasion. He read the intelligence and knew the case for war did not hold. He was right.

This doesn’t look like someone that was begging Trump for anything….looks more like a typical Italian mom yelling at her child for doing something dumb
This crime of abducting humanitarian activists from international waters, and torturing and humiliating them, activists who have been trying to break a cruel, terrorist siege imposed by an occupying and terrorist power and tolerated by the majority of the world’s governments, is a dark stain on the face of humanity.
Shame on governments for allowing Israel to impose this siege and for doing nothing to stop it.
Shame on governments for allowing Israel to abduct and torture citizens who tried to do what their own governments failed and refused to do.
Israel and its terrorist government and military forces think they are intimidating activists from trying to change the reality imposed on the occupied Palestinian people.
More than ever, the entire world sees the evil of Israel.
Israel is not a democracy. Israel has no respect for humanity or international law.
Palestinians have the right to exist on their land and live in dignity. And every human on this earth has the right and duty to support them.
Vance says the DOJ is investigating Ilhan Omar: You read the things about who she married and whether she didn't marry this person or that person. It certainly seems like something fishy is there, but everybody's entitled to equal justice under the laws. So we're going to investigate it. We're going to take a look at it. If we think that there's a crime, we're going to prosecute that crime, and that's something the Department of Justice is looking at right now
@SenatorWong@MaryKostakidis What did you think about settler harassment, theft & murder in the West Bank? Any thoughts on the constant breaking of the ceasefires in Gaza & Lebanon by Israel?
@Jarrapin@CSGstinks Also on ABC PHON latest announcement re Sovereign Wealth Tax - no mention that this has been Greens policy for years & lately also David Pocock.
Absolutely. I notice a former activist interviewed brought up the contrast between current statements with the lack of outrage over Palestinian deaths & mistreatment.
Global outrage at Israel’s brutal mistreatment of the western Flotilla activists. Deafening silence when Israeli so-called ‘settlers’ attack Palestinians in the West Bank, killing families, seizing their homes and farms, bulldozing their olive trees. The. hypocrisy is disgusting
@AlboMP & @SenatorWong still jumping to Netanyahu’s tune in their condemnation of a political rival. You didn’t notice the piracy, the corruption of international law, the thousands of dead or homeless Palestinians?
🔥 Israeli Ambassador Hillel Newman in desperate damage control defending the indefensible says despite Ben Gvir’s horrific tormenting of detainees inc Aussies, he’ll face zero consequences & a verbal condemnation is punishment enough.😳
This man is a disgrace & must be expelled
We are being treated like a weak colonial territory for the plunder — foreign corporations pushing over corrupt politicians along with the local habitat.
“If they can do this to us, they can do it to anyone.”
Believe it. We were stopped at sea—4,000 km from Israel.
Unarmed. Civilian. International waters.
If this is allowed, no one is safe.
