"People are starting to understand in Earth-shifting numbers that Palestine is about the fate of all of us."

Another excellent piece from David Milner, including satisfying smack downs of militant ignorance.

Many, many times I've wanted to scream in public, full of anger and despair as I am. But I can't, it's the fastest way to be labelled a terrorist or antisemite when you look like me. So what I do instead is read David, and people of conscience like him in the profession, and cling on to my sanity.

Bold writing from Milner that speaks to our common anguish. For mine, my circle of associates has expanded in the direction of anti-genocide protestors, a wholesome development, and narrowed since a winnowing of those who remain steadfastly silent. theshot.net.au/uncategorize...

The electorate voted for a senate that has a majority of ALP and Greens.

Murray Watt and the ALP are choosing instead to write laws that will please the LNP and mining companies.

This is not the outcome a majority of Australians voted for.

I’m getting weary of this. This government is representative of what the people of this place want. The argument is with all of us. Turning it into a constant personalised political snipe belittles the nature of the problem.

I'm at the stage where I no longer get my news from the Australian mainstream news media. Not even "our ABC". Rather, I'm enjoying the informed, nuanced commentary from some outstanding independent news sources. Please reply with your suggestions who I should be reading. 👇 #auspol #JournalismMatters

As well as its illegal occupation of Palestinian territory, global legal authorities have repeatedly accused Israel of entirely disregarding international law. Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant are subject charges of war crimes. #Auspol #ICJ #Gaza

After ICJ ruling, can UN relief agency UNRWA resume full Gaza operations?

ICJ states that Israel must allow aid into Gaza, ensuring food, water, medicine, and shelter for the Palestinian population.

The ALP didn't bother negotiating with the Libs when it changed IR laws, but now apparently it needs LNP support for environmental protection changes.

When govts want to do something, they do it.
When they don't, they use bipartisanship as the excuse.

No one here should fall for it

How dumb to have a #peaceplan without one of the major parties present. This is just a #Netanyahu Wishlist and a Nobel punt from The #Taco. Nothing more than two leaders trying to stay out of jail. Start real negotiations with all parties.

That so-called Peace Plan pushed by Trump and the genocidal Netanyahu ain’t peace at all – it’s basically demanding Palestine just give up. Any fair solution’s gotta start with bringing back respect for international law. #israel #palestine #peace #peaceplan #trump #netanyahu #tonyblair #gaza

The Peace Plan states "Gaza will be a deradicalised terror-free zone that does not pose a threat to its neighbours", no deradicalisation of Israelis. #auspol #PeacePlan

Peace without justice

We are told that Trump's Gaza Peace Plan envisages a potential pathway to a future Palestinian state.

Trump’s Gaza peace plan promises stability, but critics call it a surrender. Palestinians excluded, Israel unaccountable. A deal without justice is no peace.
