That governments across the world are outsourcing their data, IT infrastructures and surveillance systems to this man and his company, Palantir, is one of the most dangerous and irrational phenomena of modern times.

Treatment. My @smh @theage cartoon.
Single frame. Penny Wong at lectern. Behind her, images of (left) activists, prostrate in rows on board ship, as seen in video from Itamar Ben-Gvir. (Right) image of rows of Palestinian prisoners behind razor wire. Wong says, “We call on the Israeli government not to treat the Sumud flotilla activists the way they treat Palestinians.”

5 Israeli soldiers gang-raped a Palestinian prisoner so brutally he was hospitalised. They filmed it. When the video was leaked, the rapists were arrested. Israelis rioted, protesting that they had the right to rape. The charges against the 5 alleged rapists have now been dropped. #IsraeliTerrorism
News headline:
Israeli military drops charges against soldiers accused of sexually assaulting Palestinian detainee

GENOCIDAL STATES ARE NOT MATES #HerzogNotWelcome
Hand-drawn protest poster featuring a black koala raising its middle finger. Below, bold red and black text reads “GENOCIDAL STATES ARE NOT MATES.” The style is rough, stencil-like, and printed on textured off-white paper.

The politicians are a big part of it, Albo is such a disappointment. But I have turned away from the news because the world I knew is falling apart. For mental health reasons I can't watch more people executed in a country we still call a primary ally.

Single panel editorial cartoon. Title at top - Summer 2035. A person is standing inside with a small child looking out a large window. Outside a fierce bushfire is coming across the nearby hills as embers rain down, in a distance a horse is fleeing. The child, looking up to the adult, says, “And, DID they lower energy prices?”

One I did earlier for @theshot.net.au
Cartoon- scene in Gaza. A mother holds onto her two children as they huddle under a bit of broken building. 
Mother: Let's just close our eyes and pretend this isn't happening.
Daughter: Do you think it'll help?
Mother: Well, it seems to make the rest of the world feel better.
