There are 11,000 Palestinians in prisons.

“At night-time we could hear the crying of children in the prison that we were in, we could see the Alsatians going into those prisons & we could hear the horror, we could hear the children crying for their mothers.”

Mr McEwan was illegally held in an Israeli Prison.
“They wanted to scare us, they scuffed us up a bit, we experienced violence.
We were all in that cage …Ben-Gvir to have a little media moment with us; it was a pleasure to call him a child killer to his face.”

Marching down St Kilda road now for Palestine. Whatever happens from here, we won't stop fighting until we see real peace, justice and freedom for the Palestinians - not some US-Israeli backed dictatorship! ✊ 🇵🇸

A big crowd at a pro-Palestine rally in Naarm, I cried a little; it's such a terrible act of genocide.

Massive crowd in Melbourne/Naarm today (in case you thought this movement was going to be placated with more colonisation). Until the occupation ends. Until Western war criminals and their enablers face justice. Until Palestine is free.

#FreePalestine rally on Gadigal land. Frogs against genocide, fascism, and the colonial project.

On noticing that the ground has slid away

My 2nd post at In Between Days is about how you can paper over cracks, but you can't paper over an abyss

We're over the cliff

We're in freefall

We have to live in this reality together

Because that's the only way to get from the no longer to the not yet

Yesterday I got so old...

Punitive, cruel, harmful. If $400 was all the money you could count on every week & didn’t get paid, how do you think that would impact your life? How well do you think you could cope?

We need total political, environmental & social change. #Auspol #Jobseeker

Picture of a lying spineless weasel, we need a government that leaves no one behind.
