He fell asleep in a meeting with Turkish President Erdogan, referred to Iran as the "Islamic Republic of Japan", TikTok as "Tic Tac", President Zelensky as "President Putin" & once again demanded the U.S. be given control of Greenland. He's much less dangerous while sleeping than when he's awake. 💤

That young woman needs to be gently led away and medicated. She clearly needs help. Jews actively criticising Netanyahu’s actions, show that not “all Jews” are to blame for his atrocities. These people are reasoned, intelligent individuals. The woman, on the other hand, comes across like a lunatic.

What the actual fuck is wrong with these people? Zionists, having a melt down. Because they can't get their genocidal way. & then, comes the violence, of course.

"Something is deeply wrong with this system, when people who are wealthy are getting far wealthier...and people who don't have a lot are falling further and further behind." - Dr Cassandra Goldie AO, CEO, Australian Council of Social Service at our Revenue Summit 2025 #auspol

I struggle to understand how one can reconcile advancements in science and technology with adherence to ancient religious interpretations that appear to justify violence against civilians, including women and children. You know what I am talking about?!

The sunscreen scandal shocking Australia. Independent analysis by a trusted consumer advocacy group has found that several of Australia's most popular, & expensive, sunscreens are not providing the protection they claim to, kicking off a national scandal. 🧪☀️⛱️🦘 www.bbc.com/news/article...

bbc.comThe sunscreen scandal shocking Australia - the world's skin cancer capitalIt has shaken consumer trust and raised questions about global sunscreen regulation.

Day after day we accept the unacceptable. We learn to relish in selfishness …we call it survival. But then we falter and we except the world to bleed for us the way we refused to bleed for others. Humanity is at stake!

An ongoing slaughter and signing bombs to drop on helpless kids in Gaza is not condemned but paint chipping off a synagogue door needs a national response. What world are we living in…huh?

Australia remained a leading supplier of many of the critical minerals used to generate and store renewable energy, build electric vehicles and manufacture future-facing technologies and electronic devices.

If people are displaced other spaces/countries will be overwhelmed and overcrowded which would lead to faster depletion of available resources which in turn would lead to more conflicts and wars. Unless a genocide is committed.

The American dream through Zionist eyes. It’s not about regime change or regional security or women’s liberation or freedom or democracy. They don’t even have that in their own yard! It’s just a modern take on imperialism.
