From the News Corp flagship today. π Alexander Downer - who oversaw Australiaβs illegal bugging of East Timor - praising Benjamin Netanyahu, who is facing multiple corruption charges, and also dodging an ICC arrest warrant for war crimes in Gaza. #SanctionIsrael #FreePalestine #auspol
Heβs a lowlife, a fool, and a complete neocon. May he disappear from our lives sooner rather than later.
An Australian truth-telling process similar to the South African Truth and Reconciliation Commission would raise the family role in the Frontier Wars - his grandfather's documented complicity in condoning massacres & defending perpetrators. That should see Downer disappear from the public space.

WGAF what that old flog says ? His lib dynasty days are over
Jeepers. The man is a fool.
Colonial genocidal Downer crime family member praises Netanyahu, what a surprise.
Just as the Liberals needed the 1994 'Dream Team' headed by 'Curly' and 'Tip'.
Hello stuart8.bsky.social πΉ We are living in harsh conditions in Gaza. War and famine threaten our lives every day. My family is in desperate need of your help. Donate anything that can lighten our burden. Donβt stay silent!ππ»
Another Liberal grub Irrelevant
Alexander Downer = scumbag He supported the US-led invasion of Iraq. As foreign minister, Downer spread the propaganda that Iraq had "weapons of mass destruction". This is the man who makes "fun" jokes about domestic violence. [He laughed about "the things that batter"] Now he likes Netanyahu. π
Alexander Downer was also employed by the UK government to advise on asylum seeker policies, and is directly linked to Boris Johnson's Rwanda Plan - an abuse of human rights and international law so egregious it was dead and buried before it even got off the ground. #auspol
Post politics went to work with the very same company that stood to benefit enormously from the bugging, a great conservative tradition.
