“But Anthony Albanese insisted they sat out the operation to sink the IRIS Dena, saying Australian military personnel did not "participate in any offensive action" against Iran.”

Absolute bollocks.

Howard level lying.

Yes. The frigate was unarmed and the US knew that.

Who’s going to charge the sub skipper with war crimes? It’s as bad as My Lai.

Won’t be long and this type of activism will be banned. Suggest you don’t vote ALP, Lib, Nat, ON, Green.

No Q. that it isn't ... disgusting warmongering filth. Both of them.

It’s a war. Everyone lies. Thank you for your analysis.

Farnham sang “globalise the intifada?” That’s wild. Which song?😅

Reportedly the ship was unarmed - firefight likelihood seems low…..

War crime?

It would never had got any substantial support. It knew that so couldn’t ask.

Others are saying this is debris from downed missiles.

Good of Lindsay Graham to frame this as a religious war. Because they always end well. America is a secular country, yes? That’s the way the constitution was framed.

Am I the only person troubled that the US sat alongside the commander of the Iranian frigate during Indian naval games and the international conference, and then 2 or 3 days later sunk the boat? US can never be a trusted ally if this is the case.

But don't accept my explanations—use elementary-school logic. If Iran had fired these drones with intention, it'd be counter to that intention to subsequently deny doing it. It'd be *proud* to say it did it.

And there'd be evidence the drones were fired *from Iran*. There isn't.

Are Australian sailors now caught up in war crimes? #auspol #RAN #navy

Keep in mind we already know the US-IDF alliance is committing war crimes, lying about casualties, lying about imminent threats, lying about timelines. And keep in mind the UK confirms the Cyprus strike came from Lebanon—not Iran. Hezbollah has even *less* reason to anger the UK.

There's no reason for Iran to attack NATO nation Turkey—but a drone did. Iran denies sending it.

There's no reason for Iran to attack a UK base in Cyprus—but a drone did. Iran denies sending it.

Now Azerbaijan has been attacked. Iran denies involvement.

I think this is Israel.

February CO2 data from Mauna Loa was just posted by NOAA, and the 3-year running average for the mean rate of atmospheric CO2 growth hit yet another new record high, now up to 8.15 ppm per 3 years.

And that dip in the early 1990's was Mt. Pinatubo.
