Over 50,000 Israeli soldiers are dual nationals, most have US or European passports.
This means their gov't's have to decide whether to prosecute them for war crimes and genocide. Israel has killed more than 72,000 Palestinians in Gaza.

Same old Hume and Liberals. Capital Gains Tax rort unchanged. Lower taxes and reduced govt services. The market on its own will not fix housing shortages. Modern, modular public housing for working class Australians through a national Housing Commission the way to go.

Jon Kudelka (1972-2026)
The last picture Jon Kudelka drew for The Saturday Paper was of a man sitting on the edge of a small cliff. Possibly it was the edge of a hole. The man was Jon, waiting for an idea. He was as scruffy and as charming as one of his drawings.
