Netan Yanas nicknamed the "Angel of Death" with a 98% hit rate was killed in a Rafah bomb trap yesterday. His infamous specialty was shooting children & teenagers in the abdomen so they'd die slowly, targeting medics rushing to help, & even taking aim at journalists. www.threads.com/@noahtzur/po...
Americans are making such a good job of running their own country, we should let them run ours too.
“The ABC has previously revealed the 11 tanks were constructed unlawfully without a building permit and were not designed to withstand winds of more than 193.5 kilometres per hour. Water has also been leaking into the base of the tanks, which are yet to hold fuel.”
I wrote this. Every journalist, social media producer and news influencer in Aus should read it & memorise @whiterosesociety.bsky.social principles of reporting. Huge thank you to @kurtsengul.bsky.social for invaluable expertise, I was very tempted to publish all your answers verbatim. #auspol
Former head of Neo Nazi movement Jeff Schoep speaks at the Gold Coast Antisemitism conference along with Antisemitism enjoy Jillian Segal.🙄 He insists he’s not racist anymore. Well guess what, he was also marching at the Neo Nazi-led marches on Sunday.
We will never know the true economic value of the environment; it's a fool's errand. Nature's most important values are priceless, they can never be measured in dollars and cents, but they must be conserved.
One could be forgiven for being confused about current definitions of anti-semitism.
adding correction here:Mark Leibler is Government Appointment (Ministerial) on UMelb Council, not the chair. Thank you to Russell Goulbourne in the replies for bringing this to my attention. about.unimelb.edu.au/leadership/c...
I assume this means we can’t sue when these tanks leak fuel into the harbour? The price of being a vassal state. #AusPol
Everyone knows Carney is following the Austria WWII plan right? That doesn’t work out well for Austria.
In opposition, Labor condemned the Morrison government for designating almost anything an exempt “cabinet document” by wafting it through the cabinet room, writes Karen Middleton. The Albanese government is using definitions to achieve a similar effect. mnth.ly/yUSwJmw
AUSTRAC signed an $8.1 million extension with Palantir until 2025, on top of a previous $8.6 million deal. This gives Palantir access to financial intelligence data on top of Defence info - a foreign corporation with unprecedented access to sensitive Australian data.
Each new horror in this is just an escalation of the shit that began with the Balfour Declaration. It took some time for them to get it off the ground, but here we are! #FreePalestine #GazaGenocide
#FreePalestine U wonder why ppl want to see these politicians💀💀💀💀💀 “US has imposed sanctions against 3 Palestinian human rights groups that asked ICC court 2investigate Israel over allegations of genocide in Gaza, according to a notice posted to the US treasury dept” apple.news/Al0SrZy2MRuy...
Let's not forget who's behind Palantir - Peter Thiel who argues democracy and freedom aren’t compatible. Palantir has deep tries to Trump’s administration and has been facilitating mass surveillance and deportation of migrants and is directly involved in the genocide in Gaza.

In case you needed a reason to LOL. #auspol #FMD
The reach extends far beyond govt. Palantir & Coles have teamed up to use 120,000 employees worth of data, Rio Tinto has renewed its multi-year contract too. This foreign surveillance company is embedded across Australia's critical infrastructure - public and private.
We are calling for an immediate freeze on Government contracts with Palantir in Australia. Then full transparency on what data is collected, how it is used and by whom, because their conduct is almost certainly in breach of Australia's privacy laws and core democratic value.
The Greens and advocates have been trying to warn people about the new Aged Care Act for months. Now this report confirms our worst fears. A co-payment tsunami is about to break on older Australians, thanks to Labor’s dodgy deal with the Coalition to protect provider bottom lines.
We already know the government is building a surveillance state by stealth & has been for 2 decades. The problem is Australians happily accommodated it by freely uploading our lives to social media & acquiescing to every piece of draconian “anti-terrorism” legislation.
Forget Defence contracts, Palantir in Services Australia is the genuinely scary prospect. #auspol

Great Khan of the Steppe disputes notion that fertile, child bearing women are inequally distributed among the lesser warlords
For months, the Advance group has been posting anti-immigration and racial hatred videos. This inspired the Nazis to rampage, resulting in the Melbourne Sovereign Hill riot and many injuries. Why isn't ASIO investigating Advance, and those who fund Advance, like the Antisemitism Envoy? #auspol
The United States is now on the Civicus Monitor Watchlist. A global list of countries where there is a serious decline in respect for civic freedoms. The watchlist was updated in March 2025 and includes the US alongside the Democratic Republic of Congo, Pakistan, Kenya, and Serbia. DOJ actions
It is extremely troubling how little press this got now that I think about it.

Just when you think AUKUS could not get any worse, now it has revolving doors with US surveillance tech companies.
I agree as any other party that represents any sort of threat is subjected to a media assault, like the greens prior to the last election.
Neither Liberal or Labor will ever give up their positions in the game as anyone looking to look after the interests of the people of this country will essentially have to disassemble the entire system
To build something that would be of genuine benifits to actual people would take far longer than the 50 years it took to get the current system to this point.
That, but not just that, it is the pretence of a difference between the two majors #auspol
Weirdly specific denial in this Guardian article that Melbourne Uni’s board didn’t play any role in killing Meanjin
Sesame Street will be putting a huge collection of episodes on YouTube starting in January 2026 This is a fantastic way to educate children It’s a form of resistance. Shows like Sesame Street teach love, tolerance, acceptance & more. These lessons are crucial for the long fight ahead.
Virginia Giuffre (may she rest in peace) named the men who raped her. Dershowitz: 6 times! 🤬 This from Nick Bryant is the most thorough/well-written piece I've read about Giuffre. Via emails her story unfolded for him over time. She trusted him. Well worth a read. nickbryantnyc.com/blog/f/a-req...

They are of course, proudly supported by this gormless war-monger. Don't say you weren't warned about him. .
An organisation funded by arms-dealers & child killers has smeared its filthy hands over Australia, pretending their purpose is to stop racism - when in fact their real purpose is to promote & support Israel's continuing atrocities. They're brainwashing local government now too. .

Carney cancels invite for Project 2025 mastermind, wants fascist takeover of Canada to be more of a surprise
Interesting to note our @albomp.bsky.social did not post his fawning announcement of his phone call with Trump here on Bluesky. He saved that “I had a chummy chat with a fascist” post for the site owned by a Nazi. Albanese, all that makes Labor great. #AusPol

www.abc.net.au/news/2025-09... This journalist is old enough to remember that for the 70th anniversary of the end of World War II at a similar parade in China. The coalition government sent a minister along to attend.
To me the critical point in the takeover by the oligarchs & their corporations was when Labor introduced their Neoliberal ideology, privatisations & Accords & not only abandoned opposition but stayed in place as a bulwark against any other party gaining opposition status 50 years ago now #auspol
It is not just you Peter a lot of others believe they are, they are nothing more than a continuation of previous governments. Call me crazy that is why now they refer to each government using the PM of the times name to give the appearance the current government is different from the previous one.

Anthony Albanese & his government are at least as dangerous to the people of Australia as any of the more maligned alternatives. I think actually far more dangerous, much more of a risk to the pretence of democracy that we still have remaining, but that is just me #auspol

She actually blamed us for it “this is part of the fabric of our society. We have found that fabric is shredded. Antisemitism is actually shredding it,” Don't forget - To her those on Sunday who were Anti-Semitic are those protesting for Palestine - who were also the ones protesting the Nazi's
