A reminder that being a journalist in occupied Palestinian territories is one of the most dangerous occupations. Whether its Israeli 'settlers' or the IDF doing it, assault and murder of those courageously bearing witness to genocide and ethnic cleansing is a constant threat.

In its UN Security Council bid, Australia claims to “listen”, “partner” & “protect” - whatever TF that means from a government who has given away our sovereignty to the US. A more accurate pitch would be: 'Stand for nothing and offend no-one, while pretending to follow international law.' #auspol

What happens to Australian politicians, public servants and the military when they arrive in the USA? They lose all sense of Australian sovereignty and acquiesce to US hegemony at the expense of our safety. We need real leadership not sycophantic capitulation.

No clue. My cartoon in today's @theageaustralia.bsky.social and @sydmorningherald.bsky.social
A political cartoon by Megan Herbert showing a close up of a partially completed crossword in the "Puzzles & Political Games" section of a printed publication. A hand holding a pen (that reflects the climate stripes visible in the background) is filling in the answers. The clues: "ACROSS. 1. What is the cause of more intense and more frequent extreme weather events? 6. Who has warned us for decades that a rapid transition away from fossil fuels is the only way to avoid surpassing 1.5 degrees of global warming? 9. What is the greatest threat to human and animal life, food and nations security, resources, infrastructure, and every living system on the planet? 11. With the UN confirming 1.5 degrees of global warming is now guaranteed, what point have we reached? 13. What, according to politicians, is it never the right time to discuss?" The answers: "1. Climate Change 6. IPCC 9. Climate Change 11. Crisis 13. Climate change"
