I'm always reminded of the thrust of this quote from a Douglas Adams book: "those people who must want to rule people are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it" Others have noted that talented people go into other fields and the leftovers go into politics. Never the best and brightest.

Let me translate: the Israeli public love the genocide; they have been lapping up the live-streamed murder and destruction, and their response to criticism from around the world is “hahaha fuck you!”. This is creating presentational problems for the horrible US politicians who also think it is great

It's not just $3.8 billion of traditional annual aid. It's access to U.S. weapons and diplomatic support. Israel has been unwilling to take even a few steps to improve its image around the world. They don't fund their foreign ministry. Ben-Gvir in the cabinet poses an existential threat. Israel cannot survive with no friends in the world. (2/3)

The anti-Israel sentiment found in much of the world and many parts of the American political system may be unjustified. I hear from Israelis that their actions are justified, and since they're in the right, they have no problem. That shows an ignorance of Jewish history.
Settler violence will continue until the relevant ministries are held by people who are really opposed to settler violence. The polling numbers that CNN reports will just get worse as long as settler violence continues. (3/3)

67 pages of silence regarding the extra Special Envoy's trip to the US in March 2025. Sssssh. Additional sketchy details about the trip were provided by Jillian Segal to the Royal Commission in April 2026, one month before Minister Tony Burke claimed public interest immunity preventing material being tabled at Senate Estimates.

The Shot has the right to "self-defence"

As a credo, I try to treat people with the same level of respect I am shown. We have done more serious analysis and investigative reporting on this depravity than Crikey has, a much larger outlet with more staff and resources. Over the years, The Sunday Shot has also platformed many Crikey writers. Needless to say, that moment has passed us by.

To make such petty remarks at some of the few unvarnished truth-tellers in Australian journalism on this subject, in this moment of abject moral failure, of cowardice and of complicity, speaks to the hollow pettiness of Shah’s analysis. Focus on what really matters, please.

There is enough genocide apologia in the corporate press already. It's pathetic to see it in the indie space, too. Do better, Crikey, your readers expect more.

Fuck fascism. Free Palestine.

BBC invited Palestinian writer, researcher and analyst Muhammad Shehada on to talk about Israel’s decision to investigate the killing of Hind Rajab. Below is Muhammad’s account of what happened next. Full disclosure: I know him years and he’s a regular on the pod. So naturally I believe him 100%.

@muhammadshehad2
Disappointed the BBC cancelled my interview on
Israel's killing of Hind Rajab
2 producers eagerly reached out. They confirmed the time & one called to prepare a brief for the anchor
She asked me whether Israel's announcement is positive, I explained in detail it was a cover up.
The IDF is blaming the killing of Hind, her uncle, aunt & 4 cousins on the family itself for trying to flee by car & on the ambulance sent to rescue her for "failures in the co-ordination of the movement."
None of this is remotely true! The Red Cross immediately informed the IDF about 5-year-old Hind who was hiding in that motionless car, & they requested permission from Israel to allow an ambulance to rescue them.
After multiple long hours, Israel granted greenlight to the ambulance & provided them with a designated route on a GPS to drive on.

soon as the ambulance reached Hind's car, the IDF ambushed & bombed them immediately with an American made anti-tank missile then opened fire on Hind's car. The car was hit with 355 bullets.
Israel then kept that area under lockdown for 12 days, & prevented anyone from approaching.
Hind's mom went daily to the Ahli baptist hospital hoping to find her daughter, until her lifeless body was brought in along with the charred remains of the ambulance men.
Israel then claimed after an "initial investigation" that its troops were NEVER in that area to begin with. They maintained that claim for 2 years despite ample recordings & satellite images debunking this lie.
The only reason Israel is now making this new announcement of a deeper investigation is to shield its soldiers & generals from the International Criminal Court by invoking the principle of "complementarity;" that the ICC cannot investigate a state that is already investigating itself in good faith.

I told the BBC producer Israel today also quietly shut down the investigation into the triple tap killing of American, Canadian, British, Australian & Polish citizens in the WCK massacre. Israel blamed the massacre on the aid workers themselves for "deviating from the predesignated route" & for hiring an armed security guard "without informing the IDF" (both claims where debunked by WCK themselves, who had coordinates their every step with the IDF).
I told the producer the Israeli commander responsible for this massacre, Nochi Mendel, is a fanatical settler who had signed a petition calling for starving Gaza & that he was celebrated by settler leaders & supported by Israeli government leaders after what he did.
Mendel even received a box of chocolate from the settler council's leader & a letter of support for what he did.
Mendel was initially dismissed by the IDF & blamed for the massacre, but was quickly & quietly reinstated & promoted in the Defence Ministry as the head of the settlements and notionol infroctrunturo unit
