This one was amusing.
He’s delusional. The quiet Australians have been shyly avoiding the baying howls of the Yes activists, and only now that it’s clear they’re not alone are some of them cautiously indicating they won’t vote to divide Australia by race.
(h/t to the Oz, which has a headline this morning: ‘Quiet Australians’ could win it for Yes: Pearson. The story isn’t linkable though as it’s buried in the “politicsnow” news article.)
minns is an evil incompetent imbecile. Always was, always will be. I’m sick of people who should know better making excuses for him. If he wasn’t an irredeemable arsehole, he wouldn’t be in the labore party.
Monday evening was a test, which he and his fellow collectivist shitheads failed dismally, entirely unsurprisingly. The cops are an absolute useless disgrace, who’ve indulged the violent sexist racist moozley monsters fraser blessed us with, again, but when you’ve lived in Sydney as long as I have, you’d have known this for decades.
I’ve been in email contact with some Israeli friends, one of whom flew back in there on Friday night, terrible timing to say the least. They’re relatively safe for the time being, although one them said he’d lost a good friend who was a mayor of one of the southern cities that was overrun – he was then butchered by evil monsters, while defending his community. My friend described him as “A true leader and proud Zionist. A really great guy whom I’m going to miss deeply”. My friend also has a new grand daughter and he and his wife have now met and embraced her. When you think of what happened to those poor babies in the kibbutz, you can’t help but feel incredible sorrow and incredible anger.
BTW, Liz Storer was spot on about various hate marching monsters being deported. They are a problem that needs to be dealt with, as we are now at risk of those monsters attempting to enact the same sorts of atrocities here – and we’ll be on our own, unarmed and unprotected by a state that holds us in contempt.
Trauma associated with the referendum being defeated?
Ok, we need to drop the “Nazi” obsession, it’s a distraction.
What is right in front of us is Islamism. It might get to the same “gas the J*ws” coclusion, but it is a different beast, arguably older and wiser than the mid-century Germans.
I know there’s not much to laugh at but the Bee is trying:
Emperor Hirohito Calls For Ceasefire After Bombing Of Pearl Harbor
Indeed. That is until two groups of free speakers, one with a propensity for horrific violence, show up at the same time.
The solution of course isn’t to silence the speakers, but to stomp those with a propensity to violence into a mudhole until they understand the rules of civilized society.
If confronted with a person who says he wants to kill me, I’m not going to wait until he acts before I take action to defend myself from attack.
The same right applies to the public when faced with people who use free speech to advocate violence. That is a threat to public order and the freedoms associated therewith. The public, in the form of the properly constituted authorities, has a right to defend itself against that threat. To tolerate it, under the guise of respecting freedom, is to invite the eventual forfeiture of one’s own freedom at the hands of those who do not respect it.

No distraction, Islamism and Nazism are one and the same, and I will call them Nazis, because that is what they are.

It’s an awkward issue of syntax, in as far as past, future and present tense. The principles are right. Israel used anticipatory first strikes before and were justified in doing so.

Free speech has two components to it:
1. being free to say something
2. being accountable for what you said.
I, for example, can say the Bible defines marriage as between a man and a woman. That is an example of (1.). In some places I can be arrested for saying it, where despite it being manifestly truthful the government can indict me for contravening their laws. That is an example of (2.)
It is my choice to say it, and if I do so knowing I can be arrested for saying it that is also my choice. Thus, under point (2.), those terrorist supporters should be arrested for what they said, and tried in court for supporting terrorism – a very serious charge.
sadly, yes it is ….. you either have free speech or u have ‘free speech except for….’ and that is the slippery slope which now sees people arrested for praying outside abortion clinics, and autistic teens arrested for saying a (fat, bluehaired lesbian) police constable looks like a lesbian.
Once you grant the power for authoritarian figures to restrict speech, they do so – and you end up with experienced doctors like myself and Paul Oosterhaus getting silenced by AHPRA for (correctly) stating that Ivermectin works for Covid, and the injections were insufficiently tested and ran serious safety risks.
There is no perfect solution, but giving governments the power to restrict speech is a 2 edged sword which WILL be used against you as well, not just bad people you dont like.
It is said that ‘sunlight is the best disinfectant’, and the actions of those citizens amongst us at the opera house serves best to publicise their views, and make us aware of their dangers.

Screaming gas the Jews is incitement to violence. That is not free speech.

And who is Paul Williams?

Screaming gas the Jews is incitement to violence.
Yes it cannot be construed any other way.
Free speech has two components to it:
1. being free to say something
2. being accountable for what you said.
100% agree…. you police the crime that results from the speech, not the speech itself. If anyone actually ‘ kills a jew’ at anytime, irrespective of what is said at a protest, we already have laws to deal with that.

We’re asking for those laws to be enforced, which NSW police failed to do on Monday evening.
Dot Johnson is right!
Ah, yes…a professor of politics and journalism at Griffith University; not surprising that there’s quite a few untruths in that letter then.
yes it is, but the problem with criminalising the incitement rather than the violence is that speech is now equated with violence, which was the thin end of the wedge which can now see people jailed for ‘misgendering’ etc.
Our own govt is in the process of introducing a bill which will criminalise disagreeing with govt policy, eg on social media.
We need to understand that, throughout history, governments (not smaller groups) have been the dominant perpetrators of violence against their own and other citizens, and they *will* use free speech restrictions against us in a way that produces far more harm than that which is caused by hamas supporters shouting ‘gas the jews’
This is a bald-faced lie, exposed badly by the inconvenient fact that the Albanese government could have easily countered this argument by releasing all the legal advice they received on the legal implications of placing the voice in the constitution. They chose to keep the people they are asking to vote on this in the dark.
They also chose not to table the legislation that was slated to follow this vote, saying we all need to trust them to do their job. Well Albo, would you vote for legislation proposed by you opponents without reading it. Thought not, why are you asking the people to do this then?

Unlike Sydney’s Jewish community – arguably themselves citizens – who were requested not to assemble at the Opera House and were (or, at least, one was) detained by the police for attempting to ‘say their piece’, for general safety and policing control convenience.
That’s the real point I’m reading here.
Hamas, the elected government of Gaza, has now issued an edict to Gaza residents to not evacuate following warning of Impending Israeli invasion.
Egypt, the muslim brothers of the Palestinians, has now closed the last crossing site between Gaza and Egypt.
Israel has cut off water and electricity to their enemy Gaza after the act of war it committed on them.
All of which actions enhance Hamas’ ability to play siege victim to the world.
Time to get busy Israel.
Daily Mail. Well done!
40 children beheaded! If true I hope the Gaza strip is nothing but rubble by weeks end.
Doesn’t that make a statement?
Something important again I was not taught in school.
ALP senator for WA Fatima Payman, usually quick with the selfies and hashtags (including #istandwithpalestinians), has finally commented on social media:
‘The atrocities and loss of innocent lives has deeply shaken me. The price tag for peace can not be the destruction of Palestine. The global human conscience will simply not accept it.
The two-state solution is the only viable solution. This can only be achieved through the recognition and restoration of the basic rights and responsibilities of both parties.’
Her brothers and sisters are not happy:
‘Your statement is spineless and far too late. There is no two state solution, there are the people native to the land and the colonisers. The next election may be years away, but we will not forget the silence of our so called “Muslim representatives” in Parliament’ writes one.
Evidently Fatima, being university educated and all, though ‘decolonisation’ was a metaphor.
Israel has a small window (10 days, 2 weeks) to really decapitate the snake.
In Gaza.
In Lebanon.
In Iran.
Any Hamas big wig is a legitimate target regardless where they are hiding & who they are hiding with.
Oh, and the Greens open their filthy mouths on the issue.
The two-state solution is the only viable solution.
Israel gave them everything they wanted in Gaza.
Everything.
Look what’s happened over the last 17 years.
If they think that’s what’s going to happen in the West Bank, they are retarded.

If the Pali supporters want to have a protest, fine.

Stick to the pre-agreed route.
And if anyone breaks the law, they get arrested.
And where are the HRC after the Pali disgrace this week.
Pretty sure 18C was breached multiple times.
Or does that only apply to conservative columnists & anti trans activists.
Someone want to point out to this demented bint that the Palestinians have rejected every attempt at a “Two State” solution since the 1930’s.
Don’t the New South Wales coppers have teargas and truncheons?
Only if they are anti lock down and anti vax mandates.
We need to understand that, throughout history, governments (not smaller groups) have been the dominant perpetrators of violence against their own and other citizens, and they *will* use free speech restrictions against us in a way that produces far more harm than that which is caused by hamas supporters shouting ‘gas the jews’
All true, of course, duk. Further, we can now identify potential sources of harm to our way of life amongst the acolytes of Hamas.
However, the point that many are making is that the Jewish community were warned against even attending the Opera House as it displayed the colours of Israel. And, as we all know, the few Jewish supporters at large in the city were detained by the police. That is the outrage.
Similarly, no application for the protest at the Opera House was made. Those present were breaking the law. THAT is the argument.
Again, freedom of speech is something we all value amongst our highest ideals. We argued for that vehemently during the Covid autocracy. However, inciting the murder of fellow citizens (“Gas the Jews”) is quite another matter. It seems to me that the police – just as during Covid – were picking a particular side.
Damn obvious to me.
The border between Gaza and Egypt is 12 km long. The inhabitants of Gazan recently demonstrated they have no need to use the official crossing points.
Of you go Gazan fence demolishers. Egypt is thataway ? .
Be interesting if either Egpyt or Hamas start shooting at fleeing Gazans. They just might.
Oops, Dover’s site doesn’t like ascii arrows. Ah well. South by west, Gaza people, south by west.
It seems to me that the police – just as during Covid – were picking a particular side.
During COVID, like the “wrong” thing on fb & get a visit from the plod.
Now, scream in public “gas the Jews” & you are safe knowing that the plod has your back.
The amusing thing is that Gaza was Egyptian until the 1967 war. After Sadat made the peace deal he got Sinai back but weirdly had no interest in getting Gaza back as well. It’s a mystery.
What a country!
Someone in the Jewish community (preferably high profile) should be contacting the HRC complaining about Monday night in Sydney.
If the HRC has the resources to go looking for people to complain about Leak Snr, they have the resources to call NSW Plod to see who was saying “gas the Jews”.

This is serious.

Although NSW Premier Chris Minns pledged any pro-Palestine protest on Sunday won’t go ahead – NSW Police have said it won’t be authorised – top cops have admitted they “can’t stop 1000 people” if protesters turn up anyway in the Sydney CBD.
Speaking on Wednesday, NSW Police acting commissioner David Hudson was both candid on the “criticisms” of the force’s handling of Monday’s protest, but forthright that any future protest would be met with a “strong police force”.
However, with another pro-Palestine protest planned for Sunday in the CBD, authorities and the force could be helpless to stop or block any mass rally – whether authorised or not.
“We can’t stop a thousand people all gathering at the same place, it would also depend on their behaviour,” Mr Hudson said.
“We don’t have the powers to stop (thousands of) people from convening at Town Hall.”

Victoria Police investigating allegations four men of Middle Eastern appearance saying ‘we’re on the hunt to kill Jews’
Detectives are investigating allegations four men threatened to “kill Jews” amid the ongoing Israel/Hamas conflict.
Victoria Police are investigating after four men allegedly declared they were “on the hunt to kill Jews” in Melbourne’s inner-east on Tuesday afternoon.
Officers were told a man was on Toorak Road near Williams Road in South Yarra about 4pm when he was approached by the young men who were in a car.
The Australian Jewish Association (AJA) first shared the news on its social media pages, after hearing audio from the man and told people to “stay safe”.
“We’ve heard audio from someone who was questioned by them, ‘do you know where any Jews are? Why, They’ll know what we’re going to do with them… we’re on the hunt to kill Jews,” the AJA said on X, formerly known as Twitter, on Tuesday night.
Detectives from the Melbourne Crime Investigation Unit are looking into the incident.
“There is absolutely no place at all in our society for anti-semitic or hate-based behaviour and Victoria Police is committed to responding to any such acts,” a police statement said.
Victoria Police Chief Commissioner Shane Patton told 3AW cops have since established who the driver of the car was.
“They’ve been spoken to already and the investigations are ongoing. They’ve given a different version of events,” Mr Patton said.
“In effect, they’ve said they were yelling out but there was nothing anti-semitic about it. We will now go through the process of taking statements and if there’s evidence there we’ll charge them.
“There’s no evidence of a plan to kill anyone. There were comments made by people in the car who are driving or in the vicinity and what those comments were now needs to be established and we’ll do that through taking statements.
“But we haven’t come across any evidence to suggest anything was going to occur.”

Hear this, the Palestinian Nazis and their far-left scum supporters were emboldened to screech ‘gas the Jews’ at the Opera House, and the whole time the NSW police stood by AND DID NOTHING.
How long before these emboldened Palestinian Nazis and their far-left scum supporters turn up and start screeching ‘gas the Jews” in Bondi Junction, Rose Bay, Randwick, Waverley, Dover Heights? Will the NSW Police again stand by AND DO NOTHING?
Just watch, the illegal protest on Sunday go ahead and there will be violence and more threats against Jews. Why am I so sure of this? Because they can’t help themselves, the crux of their hatred is loathing of Jews. These people have no respect for our laws. Their intent is clear, sooner or later they will make their way to Bondi Junction, to Rose Bay, to Randwick, to Waverly, and to Dover Height, and I’m now quite sure that I can’t rely on NSW Police to protect the Jewish community.
This Jew now knows where she now stands. This Jew is no longer safe in the city she was born in.

What’s with this ‘ pro – Palestinian ‘ rubbish. They are pro -Hamas and that’s all there is to it.

In the 117th Congress:
– Senate – 11 Jews, all Democrat (except Sanders who is “independent”)
– House – 25 Jews are Democrats, 2 are Republican.
Apparently being Jewish is just a check in the political box to some. Important when conning their religious base during elections but when it comes to a choice of supporting the Jewish homeland or following marxist agenda, Israel loses.
If they use “pro-Hamas” politicians & the media can no longer run the moral equivalence line credibly.
Not to mention that Hamas is listed by the Australian government as a terrorist organisation.
This Jew now knows where she now stands. This Jew is no longer safe in the city she was born in.

Of course, the Israeli’s are too civilised to do this. Instead, they will “invade” and fight building by building if they have to. Which only goes to show why we should be on the Israeli side, not the Hamas side.

Disturbing video shows tradie threatening Jewish teenagers with an Israeli flag in Sydney’s Bellevue Hill: ‘If I see that flag, I’ll kill youse all’
Four Jewish teens threatened by construction worker
A construction worker threatened to kill four Jewish teenagers if they did not remove an Israeli flag from their car.
Footage of the confronting incident shows the man – who is wearing an orange high-vis vest, a black cap and who appears to be of Middle-Eastern descent – marching up to three teenage boys who were about to tie an Israeli flag to their car in Bellevue Hill, in Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs.
He points a finger at them, repeatedly telling them to ‘put it back in your car’.
I swear if I f***ing see youse with that flag I’ll f**king kill youse all. I’m telling youse right now – all of youse,’ he threatens.
The incident happened on Monday, the same day pro-Palestinian protests in Sydney’s CBD turned ugly, with thugs chanting ‘Gas The Jews’ and ‘Death to the Jews’ in the shadow of the Opera House.
A spoeksperson for NSW Police said: ‘On Monday, officers attached to Eastern Suburbs Police Area Command received a report, four teenagers had been vernally threatened by a man on Bellevue Road, Bellevue Hill about 6.30pm.
‘Detectives have commenced an investigation. No arrests have been made and inquiries are ongoing.’
That’s an easy one – don’t go in until the place has been depopulated.
Don’t bother with extensive use of high explosive, use napalm, Fuel Air Explosives, and flamethrowers.
Doesn’t matter how well Hamas dig themselves in, no one can survive if the oxygen is burnt out of the air supply. e.g. Hamburg, Dresden, Tokyo, etc. Then send in the bulldozers to create the Gaza Pier.

The Pride of Ringwood hop was bred from the Pride of Kent and grown locally for use in lagers.

Those places are warm by northern European standards and can experience higher than the mid 30s in January.

Palestinian Sympathizers in Australia Chant Antisemitic Slurs “F–k the Jews” and “Gas the Jews” in Front of Sydney Opera Following Hamas Massacre (VIDEO)
Australia’s political leaders have expressed outrage and condemnation following a pro-Palestine protest in Sydney on Monday. The rally, aimed at showing solidarity with Palestine, took an ugly turn when the protesters began shouting anti-Semitic chants.
Almost 2,000 demonstrators gathered in the heart of Sydney’s central business district to show support for Palestine. The protest kicked off at Town Hall and then moved towards the Sydney Opera House. Despite the overarching message of solidarity, the event was marred by instances of extreme anti-Semitic rhetoric from some attendees, causing widespread outrage and concern.
Some of the protestors voiced extreme anti-Semitic views, including the highly disturbing chant of “gas the Jews” and “f–k the Jews.” There were instances where the Star of David was burnt in front of the iconic opera house.
Daily Mail reported:
There were scenes of chaos at the Opera House as the demonstration was hijacked by radical Muslims – some wearing black masks – who threw lit flares at police and chanted ‘f*** Israel’ and ‘f*** the Jews’ beneath the steps of the iconic harbouside venue.
At one point, there were even chants of ‘gas the Jews’.
Daily Mail Australia witnessed a large crowd of men attempting to set light to an Israeli flag with firecrackers before stamping on it and tearing it to shreds.
Cries of ‘Allahu Akbar’ (God is great in Arabic) and ‘death to the Jews’ rang out as some members of the crowd swarmed towards the police barrier, brandishing torn pieces of the Israeli flag – despite the rally organisers calling for protesters to respect the police.
Over 100 cops formed a ring of steel along the steps of the Opera House and didn’t intervene when flares or other projectiles were thrown at them.
Instead, they placed the lit flares in buckets of water as acrid smoke filled the air.
The police are now facing criticism for permitting the protest to proceed and did not intervene while advising Jewish Australians to ‘stay home’ for their well-being.
According to law enforcement, they allowed the pro-Palestine demonstrators to proceed to the Sydney Opera House, believing it was more effective to oversee their movement rather than attempting to obstruct it.

Disgusting: BLM Chicago Tweets Support for Hamas Terrorists, includes Images of Paragliders Used to Murder Young Adults at Dance Party
I remember at the time of the Lindt Cafe siege some social media slime invented how she offered a Muslim girl that “I’ll ride with you” when she was supposedly abused on a train. Where were these self-declared good people to stand or walk with the guys with Israeli flags when they were monstered by police while the terrorists were allowed to rampage through our city?

My recollection is that many Israelis had to abandon their farms in the area that became Gaza in order to achieve the political solution of the time.
Part of the Gaza agreement was that all the settlements were dismantled & the settlers moved.

Well, taking time for lunch & watched a bit of Pat Dodson’s Press Club address. I wish all Australians could have seen it – he makes no excuses – he maintains that the Mabo decision proclaimed that the Aboriginal population have prior claims to ownership of the entire country. No ifs/buts.
So – this is why the Uluru committee decided that Treaty & Reparations are the way to go following a “Yes” vote & subsequent change to the Constitution.
Yet he still insists Australians “have nothing to fear”. Really ????

Israel doesn’t want to go into Gaza & occupy it.
They just want to make life for Hamas very very uncomfortable.

Israeli lawmaker calls for using ‘doomsday weapons’
Gaza should be “flattened” with nuclear-capable missiles, a member of Knesset from the ruling party has stated
Israel should use Jericho missiles to “level” Gaza “without mercy” after the weekend’s attacks by Hamas, lawmaker Revital Gotliv has said. Gotliv is a member of Knesset from the ranks of Likud, the party of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
“Jericho Missile! Jericho Missile! Strategic alert. before considering the introduction of forces. Doomsday weapon! This is my opinion. May God preserve all our strength,” Gotliv posted on X – formerly Twitter – on Monday, according to a machine translation from Hebrew.
Jericho is the name of an Israeli intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM), whose most recent iteration is capable of striking almost anywhere in the world. Israel is widely understood to have anywhere from 100-200 nuclear warheads, something the government in West Jerusalem has neither confirmed nor denied.
On Tuesday, Gotliv followed up her post about nuclear missiles with another, calling for “crushing and flattening Gaza.”
“Only an explosion that shakes the Middle East will restore this country’s dignity, strength and security! It’s time to kiss doomsday. Shooting powerful missiles without limit. Not flattening a neighborhood,” she posted. “Otherwise we did nothing.”
“Not with slogans, with penetrating bombs. Without mercy!” added Gotliv.

From today’s Catholic Weekly I read:
Babies beheaded, 40 children shot dead in a single settlement, and families burnt alive by Hamas… SAM GREENHILL meets survivors of the death squads and hears their stories of unimaginable horror
Hamas massacred 40 children in one kibbutz alone, sparking global outrage
Babies beheaded, grandparents slain and families torn apart – the full horror of ‘Israel’s 9/11’ was starting to emerge last night.
Hamas gunmen massacred 40 children in one farm settlement alone, their small bodies lying in their rooms riddled with bullets.
And as shellshocked survivors told their stories, one bereaved grandson, Shmuel Harel, told me: ‘They are the new Nazis. This was a holocaust, pure and simple.’
He said his terrified 90-year-old grandmother’s last moments were being dragged into her living room and shot twice in the head.
A sobbing Israeli woman said she had to listen in helpless horror as her 12-year-old autistic daughter was kidnapped while clinging desperately to her grandmother.
And that would be the primary basis for expanding Voice powers to direct governments in future on any issue or law, backed up by a friendly court ruling or rulings.

Luton Airport car park collapses:
All flights are suspended until 12pm as fire rips through newly-built site and five people are taken to hospital as explosions are heard and firemen battle to stop inferno spreading
The inferno was caused by a car fire, London Luton Airport said in a statement
A witness described the speed in which the blaze tore through the car park’s upper floor as ‘incredible’
The newly-built car park building at Luton’s Terminal 2 has partially collapsed, Bedfordshire Fire and Rescue Service confirmed, as crews work to wrestle control over the blaze.
Pictures of the inferno will no doubt cause worry for British holidaymakers who left their vehicles at the airport before jetting off overseas, with video showing debris collapsing on cars.
Cars on the top deck of the multi-storey have been left completely burnt out by the huge fire
Looks like the whole car park has just fallen down through the flames!
Pat Dodson, eh?

Understandable given the emotion levels right now, but dropping nukes onto a place only a few miles from your own country seems contraindicated. The fallout alone would be a serious issue.

From the Comments
– AnAl is giving the whole of Australia “the runs”.
– Once a dick always a dick.
– Media blackout from midnight tonight. Should have been a month ago!
– He’s what you call a blot on the landscape. While the country suffers from cost of living pressures, world turmoil continues and protests cross Australia, Albanese continues his country wide Voiceless tour and ignores every other thing a responsible head of government should be attending to. That t-shirt must be odorous by now.
– As the scale and horror of the massacre is revealed, I notice that the global leftist media (NYT and BBC) are backing off from using the misnomer “militants” – a soft and pliable descriptor – to describe the terrorists.
In case I have not made myself clear, it is an obscenity to label stone age fanatics who behead babies and kidnap young women to become sex slaves as no more than militants.
Albanese might take this on board in his future choice of words.
Just differentiating their product is incredibly hard. Pushing the recipe off the fashionable limits is one way to do it.
A few weeks ago we went to a gin bar in Darwin which had maybe 60 different gin varieties from around Australia, all with varying ‘botanicals’, and a ‘fashionable tasting note’ for each. Those distillers and blenders used ‘hipster’ and ‘native’ variety ingredients to great effect.
I shudder to think how long it would take to taste every IPA in the bottleshops round my home. Simple solution I have achieved is to ask for Cooper’s Green.

ALLISON PEARSON
Several years ago, I was chairing a panel of writers talking about motherhood
when an Orthodox Jewish author made an observation I have never forgotten. Twins were not viewed as a blessing in her community, Sally said.
“Why?”
“Because when they come for you, it’s too hard to pick up both of them and run.”
The other mums on the panel were stunned into silence.
When they come for you, the Jewish mother said, not if.
On Saturday October 7, Itay and Hadar Berdichevsky realised that “they” had come for them. Gunmen were breaking down the door of their house in a kibbutz not far from the border with Gaza.
The couple, both aged 30, placed their 10-month-old twins in a secure place. In their panic and dread, with seconds to spare, the parents locked away their treasures for safekeeping.
Itay and Hadar were murdered by Hamas thugs. Twelve hours later, Israeli soldiers (IDF) found the two babies in their hiding place. They were alive, but they were orphans; the mother and father, who spent their last minutes on earth protecting them, were gone.
In the five days since Hamas’s monstrous attack on Israel, we have heard many such devastating stories, flinched at graphic videos like the one of the battered young woman meekly being bundled into a Jeep, her jogging pants full of blood.
Such images make you feel physically sick. But watching the TV news, and listening to the radio, I notice how quickly certain broadcasters prefer to move the conversation on from these so-called “unimaginable” traumatic events to the plight of the Palestinians.
(In particular, Jeremy Bowen, the BBC’s International Editor, has provoked the ire of some British Jews with his flinty lack of compassion for Israel’s sorrow).
With indecent haste, before the 900-plus victims have even been laid to rest, reporters seek the opinions of extremists who are permitted to explain that mass murder, rape and the abduction of children and ladies in their 80s are somehow justified because the Palestinians are oppressed.
One Hamas representative actually told Radio 4’s World at One that his side had not killed any civilians.
Would presenter Sarah Montague have interviewed the head of an Einsatzgruppen Nazi death squad in 1943 to provide similar “balance”?
Bill Ackman
@BillAckman
I have been asked by a number of CEOs if
@harvard
would release a list of the members of each of the Harvard organizations that have issued the letter assigning sole responsibility for Hamas’ heinous acts to Israel, so as to insure that none of us inadvertently hire any of their members.
If, in fact, their members support the letter they have released, the names of the signatories should be made public so their views are publicly known.
One should not be able to hide behind a corporate shield when issuing statements supporting the actions of terrorists, who, we now learn, have beheaded babies, among other inconceivably despicable acts.
If you support Hamas, you are either a retard or evil.
Best to avoid employing either of those groups.

The Telegraph UK – All flights suspended as large fire breaks out at London Luton Airport
Witnesses report cars exploding as fire service tells people to avoid the area
From The Comments
– Another EV no doubt.
– It could be an EV but given Luton’s demographic it could also be related to events in the Middle East.
– EV drivers are a bit like vegans – they always tell you within the first 5 minutes of a conversation that they drive a Tesla or some other milk float. Avoid them at all cost.
– Almost certain it was an EV
– Seems strange for such a large fire to take hold so rapidly in a structure that is almost exclusively concrete – the flames must have leapt from car to car with remarkable speed. Not that there’s any possibility of foul play in Luton at this time of course.
– Damn that climate change.
– After being together in the same car park for 2 weeks, they all synchronised their time of the month.
Except when they don’t, which will be in various polling booths this Saturday.

“Noel Pearson has warned there is “no Plan B” if the referendum fails on Saturday and says there will be no other path for reconciliation.”
Outrageous
Firstly, The Voice is Plan B and upscaled and permanent version of Plan A, which is what we have now. For lots of money and we get meetings, committees, reports, visits to sites, insults to everyone else especially the taxpayers, complaints to the UN and anyone who will listen, corruption, greed and a gap that is not closing as it is seen as non-aboriginal’s problem and they have no involvement in solutions other than to complain.
There is no responsibility for lifting themselves out of the mire they have created by insisting on using dead languages, such that people from the hhomelands cannot visit a city without a bodyguard and translator.
The Voice is an underhanded emotional plea to the goodwill of a christian based society. No shortage of people throughout the world who scam us because we are polite and care about others, hence so much outrage here at the ingratitude and hatred directed at us by people like Pearson and the professor woman, Marcia (?). Ever seen the yotube video, “you can go now”? A defeated people’s attempt at rewriting history.
Secondly, it underlines that Reconcilliation is not and never was and never will be a 2 way street, there is zero ownership for it on the aboriginal side of the house. The expectation is we should just chip in forever and that’s what the Voice is about, that they can lay the blame for everything at our feet and we pay and practically worship them because 200+ years ago their lifestyle was disturbed.
They don’t have a living history, it’s just made up. Can any of them name a historical figure from their history beyond 100 years of British settlement? Of course not, it’s just a fantasy that sadly many charitiable and caring people help them sustain.
The Voice is an enhanced version of Plan A, but embedded in the Constitution and if it gets there, we are dooming generations of kids to misery and isolation. English is the universal language and they don’t learn it or they think it is clever to use it for their own butcherous slang.
Scools in the NT closed out near the homelands because no one ever went to school nd the teachers were in constant danger, so were the nurses who kindly went out there.
Where has all the money gone? Countless Ministers of the commonwealth and states have spent billions of our taxpayer’s money and the Voice salespeople behave as if not a cent has been given to them, what frauds!
Ungrateful frauds
A bit jerky, but Dutton’s roasting of Albanese for hiding from the Israeli and Lakemba situations was pretty well done.
What he failed to say was that Albanese is exclusively devoted to saving his career as a consequence of Voice disaster and doesn’t give a rats about bloody Jews.
Funny how he could spend only two hours in crisis torn Alice but is spending days being stroked at Ayres Rock.
The ABC coverage is going to be excruciating.

This is an admirable position to take – unfortunately, it has been overtaken by events. The refusal to allow us our own peaceful assembly while allowing the Hamas supporters theirs has negated it.
To Hell with the Arabs and the camels they rode in on. We either fight now, or we are relegated to secondary class citizens by our own government.

Tears of a self-performed wedgie.
I’m in moderation for using a derogatory term to describe Albanese’s attitude towards Israel and Lakemba.
My point was that Dutton did a reasonable job nailing Albanese for being the least concerned, involved and supportive of all the Western leaders in relation to the war and is completely AWOL in relation to the Lakemba terrorists.
He missed an opportunity to highlight that Albanese’s only interest is saving his career due to his Voice disaster.

Never were truer words spoken.
But “we” showed more than adequately that “we” don’t like Jewish speech on Monday. It has been pointedly made clear that free speech will not be tolerated if it happens to have a Yiddish accent. That sort of speech should shelter in place. “Watch the wall, my darling, while the gentlemen go by”.
The issue here isn’t with free speech so much as it is – does this sound familiar? – authorities deciding what constitutes acceptable speech.
Monday was an absolutely clear example of the right to free speech being taken arbitrarily from our Jewish brethren, not by some baying mob, but by “us”.
Unless being led off in handcuffs (‘for your own safety”) because you were carrying a *rolled up* flag, or having to take cover behind cops because you dared unfurl one, counts as free speech.
We already knew we had an “authority” problem. This is just more grist to that mill.
The vast majority of Palestinian Christians have been persecuted out.
