These kids were at their desks at school in Minab, Iran when they were murdered by Israel/the USA's illegal war which has your full support, @albomp.bsky.social.

They had mothersโ€”some of whom may still be alive.

Women.

And you dare to say "Happy IWD2026." You are despicable. #auspol

RW christians want the same for 'their' women - silent and covered.

Yes and no ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ. It's interesting and well-researched, but I found the theme that white men and boys can be kept within the religious fold - just a less toxic one - unsatisfying. There's a lot of 'it's not really their fault'.

The Australian government seems OK with bombing girl's schools and sinking a navy vessel, leaving it's sailors to die. How about setting fire to a city of 10 million who have no water?

LRT: If you haven't seen Deadloch, you should watch Deadloch.

The US doesn't care that their own children die in schools. It's no surprise they don't care about children in other countries.

When you murder civilians and destroy a nations infrastructure, people fight harder because they have nothing left to lose.

Not a praying person, but if I were I'd be sending prayers to the women and children of Iran.

US troops were told war on Iran was โ€˜all part of Godโ€™s divine planโ€™, watchdog alleges Religious freedom group says 200 troops sent complaints of superiors using extremist Christian rhetoric to justify war

I'd like to know whether Australian government agrees that the attack on Iran is God's divine plan to bring about armageddon. Plus whether they think the US president is 'anointed by Jesus'

The Neuremburg Trials established that 'following orders' is not a defence against wars crimes. It was true then and remains true today.

No action on violence against women, Indigenous people.

And now for a word from an Iranian ... as opposed to sycophant war criminals like @albomp.bsky.social. #auspol #IranMassacre
