The war criminal #Netanyahu genocide now includes occupying aka annexing #Gaza and yet no blanket sanctions on #Israel In other words enabling the genocide

Nothing like pretending you are an environmental Foundation, supporting big emitters to avoid decarbonising by using forest ACCUs/offsets to enable continued spewing greenhouse gases to atmosphere. Lab and ACBF- perfect fit- plenty cash, no members, ex Lab staffers and access to Minister. #auspol

โ€˜We faced hunger before, but never like thisโ€™: skeletal children fill hospital wards as starvation grips Gaza For months Israel kept food shipments to Gaza far below starvation rations. Now the death toll is rising rapidly

Starving people to death is the most obviously inhumane act a state could perpetrate. Yet our government does nothing. Israelโ€™s supporters say nothing.
Do they think people will not notice, or ignore it?

#BREAKING ๐Ÿšจ Four major global news outlets โ€“ AFP, AP, BBC and Reuters โ€“ have released a joint statement, saying they are โ€œdesperately concernedโ€ for journalists in Gaza

The UN says the situation is a โ€œhorror showโ€ as more people, including many children, starve to death

Special prize for the first politician / commentator who says โ€œWe canโ€™t afford for the smoking gun to be a mushroom cloud.โ€
Not sure what the prize should be but perhaps a well thrown shoe would do.

Today, children are taught about historyโ€™s worst crimes against humanity.

We ask how the world could have possibly let them happen.

Future history books will shame those who could have stopped the genocide in Gaza, but chose to enable atrocity after atrocity instead.

Correction. It was โ€˜91.

Labor cultists hate hearing this but it was Hawke who started the privatisation of childcare back in 1990. Disastrous neoliberal sellout.

Stunning. Is there a single person left in the Victorian ALP with a shred of principle?
This red Tory shit show gets worse by the day. Just waiting for the pissant pantomime of pushback from Trades Hall.

Ok. So this is my first post here and Iโ€™m using it wisely. I have brought one memento from the other place. It is a tweet that is coming up to its one year anniversary and frankly never received the love it deserved.
