Trump is joking around in this speech. The Israeli parliament is full of laughter. The criminal Netanyahu wears a shit-eating grin. The whole thing is appalling.

Trump, speaking in the Israeli parliament, boasts about the weapons the U.S. has provided and says "you obviously used them very well."
An estimated 20,000 children have died in the war in Gaza.

Who gets to be a hostage and who is a prisoner even when having never charged with a crime and then held hostage

I feel like the geopolitics of the moment is being exposed as very much stubborn malignant normality also

I like it - not just “business as usual” but “malignant normality”

Genocidal war criminal nominates his weapons dealer for the Nobel Peace Prize and our Foreign Minister fawns over it.

Embarrassing.

"Antifa is a useful label […] They can throw it at anyone who is left of them. Anti-fascists haven't even been in the news for five years. Trump brought this up to manufacture outrage. This is manufactured outrage. It's a fake crisis. This is out of the handbook of traditional authoritarianism."

"I support anti-fascism insofar as I think fascism is not good.

And I think the direction this country is heading is really, really scary. Um, and I'm witnessing a little bit of that of myself."

This explains Y western leaders like @senatorwong.bsky.social
are falling over themselves to claim hand in this ‘peace’ plan
It helps them escape accountability for their own complicity by failing to ever sanction Israel who now escape justice for their #genocide www.instagram.com/reel/DPmm3fi...

I love that we live in a world where we're all supposed to now praise Trump for his peace-making and ignore the fact that at least 20,000 Palestinians have been killed on his watch, with bombs & bullets - & rhetorical support! - that he supplied to Israel.
That's all erased now.

Distressed to hear Madeleine Habib’s boat has been intercepted & boarded by IDF. Yet another breach of int law by Israel. I’m in Canberra & liaising now with the PM’s office. Israel must immediately release all on board including our brave Tasmanian Madeleine #auspol #politas

More detail here on the NPC cancellation of a journalist who was booked to speak about Gaza.
Incredible how badly our cultural institutions have failed us.

Exclusive: National Press Club cancelled Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist for being “in favour” of Palestine

Correspondence obtained by Lamestream shows the NPC confirmed Chris Hedges as a speaker, before cancelling him due to "balance".
