Sorry If This Is Antisemitic But I Think It's Wrong To Train Dogs To Rape Prisoners
One thing I try not to think about is how many reports we’ve been seeing about Israeli prison guards training dogs to rape Palestinian captives in torture camps like Sde Teiman.

Malcolm Fraser visited Nelson Mandela in prison & was loathed by the Sth African gov because of his stance on apartheid. Don Bradman didn't allow Australia to play against Sth Africa because of racism. Australia's principled stance was significant

So, Australia, we should just grab every American in Australia off the street, military barracks (hi Pine Gap) and just lock 'em all up as forigners without any due process as that is EXACTLY what America is doing to anyone who ain't a white anglo in the USA.
C'mon, Australia, let's re-open the old Cowra (WWII) Japanese internment camp at Cowra, NSW, and just lock any Yank here up in it without any due process.
That's what America is doing to others, so it's time other nations returned serve. America is now a basket case, run by who knows what.

Farage rarely turned up to vote when he was an MEP.
But, he did turn up to vote against the EU’s anti-Russia interference motion.
He said it was a “hoax”.
He voted against strengthening Europe’s defences against foreign interference.

![I am not a Know-Nothing. That is certain. How could I be? How can any one who abhors the oppression of negroes, be in favor or degrading classes of white people? Our progress in degeneracy appears to me to be pretty rapid. As a nation, we began by declaring that "all men are created equal." We now practically read it "all men are created equal, except negroes" When the Know-Nothings get control, it will read "all men are created equal, except negroes, and foreigners, and Catholics." When it comes to this I should prefer emigrating to some country where they make no pretence of loving liberty -- to Russia, for instance, where despotism can be taken pure, and without the base alloy of hypocracy [sic].](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:egd33s7iuqsmwlwab6mbtrqi/bafkreiaaicjid4jg3oongeah73ukqvwsqv4vwbp75q4f755nldtcfermhi@jpeg)
