Not the same. My @smh @theage cartoon.
Two frames. Same picture of Trump at his desk holding up Obama’s Iran agreement - “JCPOA 2015 US-IRAN. #Limit Nukes; #Inspectors; #Lift sanctions; #Unfreeze assets. - Obama”.and his own:”MOU -MY TREMENDOUS PEACE DEAL WITH IRAN: #Limit Nikes; #Lift Sanctions; #Unfreeze Assets; #Open Strait - (Trump signature)”Frame 1. “It’s not true that my deal with Iran is the same as Obama’s deal from 2015, which I tore up…” 2. “For a start, Obama never got them to open up the Strait of Hormuz.”

Spanish PM Sánchez responds to Trump: "Spain is against this disaster... Govts are here to improve people's lives... It is absolutely unacceptable that those leaders who are unable to fulfill that mission use the smoke of war to hide their failure, and in the process, fill the pockets of a few."

I cannot stop thinking about the $345 billion judgement against Greenpeace. We have to, essentially, phase out fossil fuels, yet for participating in a years-long fight to block one measly little pipeline, if they can't overturn this on appeal, Greenpeace will be destroyed. How is this even real?

His original violent arrest, by police who apparently saw his walking stick as a weapon…like the Border Patrol officers who dumped him, apparently made no attempt to reckon with his disability, his inability to speak English, or his mental state—set off a chain of events that ended in his death.

Blind Burmese man, Amin Shah Alam, died after Border Patrol agents dropped him off miles from home and in the cold. He spoke virtually no English. After a 5 day search, he was found dead a few miles away from where he'd been released. His family received no notification he had been dropped off.

Gets to the nub of the issue - the assumption among the Australian political and media class that the interests of Jews everywhere and those of Israel are synonymous. These were primarily Jewish AUSTRALIANS. There are Syrian Jews and Lebanese Jews and Iraqi Jews etc; None are Israelis.

A content warning for very, very significant police violence on this video: Israeli President Herzog is visiting Australia, and police in New South Wales are violently bashing prone protesters. The media is framing it in completely neutral terms. Watch the video, then look at the headlines.
