“Israel is not even trying to hide the fact that it is committing genocide.

“They are proud of it. They are boasting about it. They relish it. They mock every child, woman, and man killed.”

— Norman Finkelstein

To be clear, in my opinion, the people who FUNDED and ARMED THIS GENOCIDE should NOT BE "congratulated" when they claim there's a "peace plan" and a "ceasefire" we can't even see because Israel is STILL KILLING PALESTINIANS and/or IT FINALLY ENDS.

THEY SHOULD BE ARRESTED AND TAKEN TO THE HAGUE.

People who have funded and armed this genocide should not be getting congratulated. IMO.

Imagine congratulating Hitler on ending the Holocaust by killing himself.

The #GazaHolocaust isn't even OVER but still "leaders" from all around the world are patting Trump & others on the fucking back!

Netanyahu, Biden AND Trump along with other "leaders" BELONG IN THE HAGUE!

Of course accidents happen. But typically, chicks do not fall to their deaths.

Please do not panic.

The chicks have not fallen off the ledge.

They've just moved to a shady spot.

“We’re screaming of a major warning of what’s about to come your way. When you have a media-political class that’s relishing, delighting in the murder of our children, do you think they’re going to care about yours?”

History shows the crimes of empire were later mirrored on European soil. Dehumanisation and militarised terror both seem normalised now, says Guardian columnist Owen Jones

Two weeks ago we lost a giant of the movie posters world, Renato Casaro. Today we lost a modern Master of movie posters: DREW STRUZAN. I can guarantee you have at least seen 5 of his posters in your lifetime. The man has put his art on some of the most popular movie franchises (Indiana Jones, 1/4

I can hear my mother saying, "If you don't eat what's on your plate, I'm going to remove it—and don't you dare complain to me later that you're hungry" and then promptly following through with her threat. (I suspect this was M24 Dad taking off.) #367Collins #PeregrineFalcons

"Albanese and Wong have been making excuses for doing nothing, saying that we are so far away and not having much influence, not being a great power. But as Chris Sidoti explained at the National Press Club in Canberra, this is the wrong question."

Time for a 'just peace' for all peoples in Palestine

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and Foreign Minister Penny Wong took a long time just to call for a ceasefire in Gaza. And their belated declaration of Palestinian statehood is an empty gesture when w...
