Attacks leave dead vs killed
Three days ago, Israel ordered the south evacuated. Two days ago, they did the same to the southern suburbs. That’s more than one million people. Some, the most vulnerable, are sleeping rough by the sea or on sidewalks. Today, it is raining. War harms the poor the most.
It doesn’t matter whether the rate of global warming is increasing. It’ll never cease to amaze me that people don’t care that it’s happening at all. It should be the most alarming thing ever.
Unsure how to report on this fresh absurdity? Translation: the U.S. and Israel, both nuclear powers who have already flattened Gaza, now claim a moral duty to 'preemptively' bomb Iran. Why? A sudden concern for international law and paranoia Iran might develop the very weapons they already have.
People really struggling with the idea that the Iranian government sucks but we shouldn't be bombing them can both be true, eh?

"Israel is tightly restricting the entry of aid and basic supplies into Gaza...
On Sunday, 158 trucks entered the Strip but only 12 were carrying humanitarian supplies.
Under the ceasefire deal... at least 600 aid trucks were supposed to enter the Strip each day."

• Israel is committing genocide against Palestinians today.
• The British Museum is removing them from history.

3yo Ali Hassan Jaber and his father Hassan Jaber were killed in an Israeli strike on a car in south Lebanon. Israel claims it struck a Hezbollah “terrorist” in the attack but UN peacekeepers say it has not seen evidence of Hezbollah in the border region. #IsraelTerroristState #LebanonUnderAttack
THE GENOCIDE HAS NOT STOPPED. NOT FOR A SINGLE DAY.
Israel is a rogue apartheid state whose raison d’état is the extermination of Palestinians.
Pretty amazing stuff here in Senates, Wong says she was unaware that the chair of an organisation behind illegal settlements (something Australia is supposed to sanction) entered the country as part of Herzog's delegation.
DFAT eventually say the delegation was handled by PM&C not them.
"As long as the international community continues to repeat this mantra of a two-state solution, while not taking any action that could enable Palestinian territorial contiguity…we are going to live in a totally unrealistic fantasy"
That's Australia's policy on Israel & Palestine:
cowardly fantasy.
Good article, stupid headline:
1. Israel is not "quietly" annexing the #WestBank. It's just that no-one is listening.
2. This is not a "blunder". It's a deliberate strategy by the Israeli regime to further choke off any chance of Palestinian independence.

Kalkadoon writer John Morrissey is an exciting new genre-bending voice in literature. From the author of the award-winning collection Firelight, read this exclusive work of short fiction, ‘Magpie’, an unsettling, propulsive take on the colonial bush story. Read more: bit.ly/4auIVYm
This the never ending tragedy of this colony.
A son here, never to see a mother again.
Multiply this by communities and by generations of the same shameful white govt and worker behaviours of forced removals.

13 February marks the 18th Anniversary of the National Apology to the Stolen Generations. We pay our respects to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples affected by policies of removal.

as we mark 18 years since Closing the Gap was launched with the National Apology to Stolen Generations and their Descendants, know that police routinely target and brutalise Aboriginal people including children and then charge them with offensive behaviour, resist arrest, and assault police.
Introducing Magabala's first titles of 2026! We're so excited to start the year with these incredible books:
🖤 'Wurnan, Sharing on Ngarinyin Country' by Wilinggin Aboriginal Corporation
🖤 'Muttonfish Magic' by Aunty Ruth Simms and Lucy Robertson, illustrated by Jasmine Seymour
Congrats to all 📚
“Four of my children just evaporated,” Badran said, holding back tears. “I looked for them a million times. Not a piece was left. Where did they go?”
There are no words to adequately describe the evil here.
Laura Tingle on the money as always.
Israeli Finance Minister Smotrich: "We will continue to kill the idea of a Palestinian state".
"The simple fact is that Israeli actions endanger all of us, including Jews. Because what Israel is doing claims to in our name, in my name. And believe me when I say it is not in my name."
Thank you to advisory committee member, Antony Loewenstein for speaking out at last night's rally
