The announcement today from the Albanese Labor Government to send an E-7A Wedgetail aircraft to the Gulf and provide medium-range air-to-air missiles to the UAE shows Australia has been fully dragged into another US forever war.

In little more than a week Labor has gone from providing political cover, to dragging Australian personnel into US war crimes to now putting troops on the ground.

Australians DO NOT WANT THIS.

Labor must stop this madness and call for US and Israel to end their illegal war.

I can't think of a better outcome - Albo and co are bloody idiots 😑

Labor MP says linking Israeli government to antisemitism is 'dangerous' Josh Burns also acknowledged the government had not always acted fast enough to deal with antisemitism and said it was necessary to be "humble" in the wake of the Bondi terror attack.

Antisemitism is evil, but there's little of that in Oz.
Anti-Zionism is natural to anyone with a shed of human decency given what Israel is doing in Gaza, and now Iran.

Anthony Albanese has decided 'the smart play' is supporting Trump on Iran. It's leading Australia to a dark place The prime minister think it's smart to align himself with Donald Trump and the US-Israel attack on Iran. It might turn out to be very dumb indeed.

Yea Dogs, I'm so glad I didn't vote for this charlatan, but that doesn't help this disastrous situation:

ok so oil is doubling its price and we're about to run out of petrol because of that illegal war we're supporting, but Albo has avoided being called a pussy by Trump and that's worth any cost.

'We've reached a breaking point': Is it time to tax older Australians more? Some Australians are richer than ever, while younger cohorts are struggling. Experts say it's time for change.

That's a quick way to get voted out - you do know how many "older Australians" there are?

Israel warns it will pursue Iran’s next supreme leader
The Israeli military warned it would continue pursuing every successor of Iran’s next supreme leader.

In a post on X in Farsi, the Israeli military said it would also pursue every person who seeks to appoint a successor for slain supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, referring to the clerical body charged with selecting Iran’s next supreme leader.

The comments came after Iranian news agency Mehr news reported that he clerical body that will choose Iran’s next supreme leader has more or less reached a majority consensus.

Labor has done nothing to curb Corporate profits, gouging and bad faith operations

Albanese follows a corporate driven agenda - that expressly excludes voters

Australians undermining themselves by voting for IDEOLOGY and never for SOLUTIONS

Paul Keating savages Nine on anniversary of β€˜irresponsible prediction’ Australia faced looming China war The β€˜Red Alert’ series warned in 2023 that Australia needed to be β€˜ready to fight in just three years’ – and Keating has again taken his fight to the newspaper group

"The former prime minister took the opportunity of the third anniversary of Nine newspapers’ Red Alert series to repeat his disdain for the reporting and its primary author, international editor Peter Hartcher." #auspol

It has been obvious for a long time that politicians from both the political parties of our duopoly will always put the interests of the themselves, their party and their donors ahead of the interests of the people.

Labor has so many reasons to get Australia out of AUKUS.

Canada sees it’s a dud deal and doesn’t want to join any more.

There’s another illegal Trump & Netanyahu war in the Middle East that Australia should not be supporting.

very fed up with secret, unreliable government without #public debate. Tired of repeated #propaganda about your β€˜allies’ who are committing #warcrimes for #profit and making people unsafe. #auspol so disappointed.
