"The soldiers dug up the graves this morning and dragged the bodies with bulldozers, then crushed the bodies with the bulldozers," said the hospital's head of pediatric services, Hossam Abu Safiya, in a phone interview on Saturday. "I have never seen such a thing before."
So
Some artists are expending a huge amount of their cultural capital challenging audiences to get vaxxed. So much respect. And then there's guy sebastian, one of our most successful artists, who sounds like he agrees with the science but is terrified of losing his anti-vax $
Only a few months ago the entire country was on fire and ABC was the heart and soul coverage, even saving lives. The continual destruction of ABC is the deliberate erosion of our community. It's poisonous policy.
I still can't get over our prime minister rehashing a rumour started by my friend about him shitting his pants to distract from his catastrophic incompetence. What a day in our modern history.
Ppl who get off the bus and say "thankyou" to the driver like it's the most normal thing. Bless you, ya fuckin arseholes, for being so genuinely lovely.
Even after 6 months of the most brutally cruel terror I've seen on social media, still my breath is taken away by scenes like this. Anyone defending israel should be ashamed.

it's so upsetting that every white journalist repeatedly does this. it's not like the links between these humanising interviews and normalising hateful bigotry is not crystal clear by now
The aust music industry would love to censor this performance out of its existence. We are merely adding our voice to billions around the world fam.
Respect to anyone who's shared this, especially local artists. Everyone else, pls share far and wide.
I'm not sure zionist lawyers orchestrating Antoinette Lattouf's firing from the ABC was ever a win. They got a temporary staffer fired for nothing, and now it's embarrassed ABC leadership and the lawyers involved and become an int'l story. Objectively, that's an own goal.
@TamePunk
Thanks so much for continuing to put yourself out there Grace, at what seems to be triggering trauma every time you speak from the heart. I wish you all the buffering possible from the endless line of a-holes who make it worse. You're a legend.
We’ve had rats before, we’ll have rats again
They usually end up forgotten, scorned & alone
A rat with 1600 votes whose only issue is a non-issue for the majority of people in the state she’s supposed to represent as a Labor Senator will disappear quicker than most rats

It's untenable for the chair of the parliamentary committee on human rights to continue in his position after saying this. He's saying human rights should be violated, and innocent ppl should be killed. He should resign.
Labor MP Josh Burns has condemned calls for a ceasefire: "If Israel were to stop...and Hamas were able to regroup, there is a heightened risk of October 7 happening again" |

Respect to the First Nations organisers and all the volunteers who guided and directed today's rally. Huge turnout, totally peaceful. Astonishing given it was banned, then only approved it mins before it started. Barely any time to co-ordinate. Incredible job ✊🏻❤️
The treatment of asylum seekers at the Park Hotel is a national disgrace. Some have been detained there for years amid reports of maggot ridden food, Covid outbreaks, severe mental health issues. At least Novak Djokovic’s detention there has put a spotlight on this inhumanity.
For 25 yrs I've watched Labor repeatedly fail trying to outflank being wedged. I get that culture wars are a massive distraction but there has to be another way.
Where is the charisma? The staring down opponents with compelling and persuasive arguments? Its so FLAT.
Just watched ABC's 7.30. One story was an interview with one of the parents of an Israeli hostage and then the following story was an Israeli soldier and his family.
I guess that's both sides
A consequence of music industry cowering and censoring acts of solidarity with Palestine is it makes us go harder. This is not a game. The entire opera house audience raised their fists with us last night

Infuriating to hear politicians cite mental health whilst they decimate universities, refuse to support ppl in lockdown, scam us w carpark and sportsrorts, wilfully speed up climate change, no responsibility for.. anything! Fuck these sociopaths

your brother is liking photos on my instagram *but only pics with my child in it*. I heard someone else say the same thing today. That's pretty creepy.
Respect to Camp Cope. Cut from a diff cloth, stood their ground where 95% would cave. They changed the discourse and dragged us forward. Well done ya fuckin legends, great innings.

Just cancelled my sub that i've had since 2017. Change is needed in how real we are about the delusion of objectivity in highly volatile times like this
These 1000 soldiers who've been murdering innocents at will can just waltz back into australia that shd be chill and not at all a massive double standard 👍🏻
The Australian Centre for International Justice has reported estimates of up to 1,000 Australians currently serving in the IDF or being active reservists.

Reminder that Ash Barty is a proud Ngaragu woman who took a break from pro tennis as a teenager to play in the W big bash cricket. Even elite mortals can't do that. Greatness personified.
Normal ppl are beside themselves trying to comprehend parents being given a plastic bag of anonymous body parts of their missing children.
In the west we still centre the feelings of zionists. Donors of arts bodies enforce it.
I hate the inhumanity of this upside down world.

Is Australia going to be called to explain how it harboured a terrorist? Are we a safe haven for white terrorists? These are questions we'd ask of other countries.

This is huge.
300 public servants risk their jobs to sign open letter.
“As public servants whose work is to serve our communities, it is our obligation to voice our deep concern that you are leading Australia to be complicit in an additional genocide”
I'm just another idiot online, but we're not that far off eradicating the virus. If we stick it out a while longer we could have free movement here and in the region sooner? Isn't that better than fatalities and ongoing uncertainty or am I naive?

Watching abc news cover a new Israeli attack on a Palestinian hospital. The only quote is from IDF. This messaging is so normalised but it's contrary to any definition of journalism.
How many official Palestinian quotes have made their way into any stories on Gaza in 5 months?
anyone else remember when nsw govt got drunk on lockout laws and then targeted music festivals, shutting them down with draconian new laws and peter noble cut a deal making bluesfst exempt rather than showing solidarity (there's a word that describes that kinda move)
I will never understood the boneheaded resistance male footy fans have to aflw. You don't like women playing... cos maybe... they'll steal your beloved men's game?? It's not hard to just shut the fuck up and let it grow.
It's a soulless choice to ignore this reality and speak out publicly on localised bullshit like officeworks discrimination as if it's not connected. We've spent 10 months crying out for moral consistency but the powerful protect the status quo and we are all the worse for it.
12-year-old Dunia lost her leg in an Israeli airstrike that killed her whole family.
We filmed this video with Dunia during the seven-day truce, and yesterday an Israeli tank-fired shell killed her while she was recovering in Naser Hospital in Khan Younis.
So much respect for high profile athletes that stick their necks out. The intensity of vitriol and pressure would be a massive distraction that he could avoid but he kept his eye on the ball and pushed the convo further into the middle. A great athlete but an even better man.
Usman Khawaja has worn a black armband while batting in the first Test against Pakistan, as he shows solidarity for those suffering during the ongoing conflict in the Middle East.
Usman Khawaja took a stand in support of Palestinian people in Gaza ahead of the first Test between Australia and Pakistan in Perth, and is set to keep doing so during the match.

AJA are treated as official spokesmen for Jewish voices here. They have govt and corporates in their corner and they're openly psychopathic genocidal maniacs.
How did we get to this point?
They'll lock up young Aboriginal mums over an unpaid fine, but rich white men guilty of industrial scale wage theft are asked to be official advisors to gov't. Rigged doesn't get close. Burn it all down.
Exclusive: Justin Hemmes was one of four businessmen personally consulted by Josh Frydenberg about the final design of JobKeeper, even as his company, Merivale, was preparing its defence against a $100 million wage underpayment class action.
Goodes showed us how vicious and relentlessly hostile white Australia is toward Indigenous people. He gave anyone with an open mind an undeniable window into how bad it was and still is.
Comment: Adam Goodes’ treatment both inside and outside Australia’s football stadiums tells us that Indigenous players are celebrated for their sporting brilliance - until they remind us of our past
Waleed simplistically characterised it as preaching to the converted smdh. Nah, Macklemore is one of the most ridiculed mainstream rappers, yet the level of respect he got from this is extraordinary.
What does that tell you?
Ppl want more artists to speak up on Palestine!
My main point on this was that political music only cuts thru the BS when it soundtracks the real work being done on the frontline, when community anger isn't represented by media/politicians like rn with 🇵🇸
Paul Kelly deserves better than a pile on. The Jewish hymn Shalom Aleichem was part of his Christmas record, as was a chapter from the Qu'ran. He has a longstanding rship with Conway. Outrage at him is a symptom of ppl's frustration and immense distress. PK is a 👑
Watching my 70yo Aunty, former missionary, slowly become radicalised around race and social justice over on fb. She's blazing a trail through her conservative friendship groups and I hope I grow old with the same strength of purpose as her <3
@GuySebastian
i'm not here to pile on, I publicly defended you last year but you've muddied the waters where it desperately wasn't needed, and it's hard to understand why other than fear for your own personal brand
Australia still the only nation in the Commonwealth who still have no treaty with Indigenous ppl. Mourn *that*, not an old royal who means nothing to us.
Watched a ute with two blokes honk some 6 yr old kids with placards and give em the thumbs down. Never too young to learn that it's actually adults ruining everything.
Ppl can and will arrange and contort words to defend the indefensible, but when your side is bombing an ambulance who are trying to rescue a small child, you are the fucking bad guys. No if buts or maybes.
The way Facebook has stifled artists' ability to reach their audience is baffling. It relies on the rule that every post is an ad requiring conceptualising and investment. As they've gradually priced us out of engagement, they've made their platform close to irrelevant.

I hate these series of tweets I've just done. Just typing it makes me feel ill but to a lot of this country, conway's comments are not controversial. How is it that we are so tolerant of this genocidal language that it can breezily air on the national broadcaster?
