@Balgowallah @AlboMP The Sunni and Shia hate each other almost as much as they hate the infidels. Iran is mostly Shia - if it was a Sunni mosque, they'd probably be cheering the bombing.

You provide the US and Israel with intelligence that they use to saturation bomb Iran, knowing they kill hundreds of children and then you turn up at a mosque? Nice one Bro. Can you not find the simple decency to just stay the fuck away? @AlboMP

@SistaRuthDOPD Whatever. Enjoy your echo chamber.

Hasbara troll. You know what to do. <block>

@dorfman_p Cost. You never mention cost. You never show how much more retail consumers are paying for power. You never talk about the increasing number of families living in energy poverty. Why is that?

South Australia expected – within 18 months – to become first gigawatt-scale grid in the world to reach 100% net #renewables (net refers to the fact that it imports and exports at times and is not an isolated grid), and is already running at a 75% share of wind and solar. reneweconomy.com.au/grow-your-own-…

@chrisca35900784 @Sahar_A_Writes The only reason Iran hasn’t killed tens of thousands of civilians is because most of their missiles and drones have been shot down and their nuclear program has been blitzed.

@MajorBlipvert @Sahar_A_Writes Yes. But Iran avoided killing civilians, and consistently does. Qatar hosts a major US military base, and the largest most sophisticated radar in the Gulf. That is what Iran hit; the military infrastructure.

"Your question is biased." Iranian official Esmaeil Baghaei calls out ABC's Sarah Ferguson who frames Iran as "making the world suffer" over striking a Qatar LNG site. He reminds: "The US and Israel are attacking our infrastructure. We did not start this war." #abc730 #auspol

@TheAusInstitute Remind us how many billions of dollars had to be invested in infrastructure before a single iota of gas could be exported

⛽ Australia is the third-biggest fossil fuel exporter in the world. 📈 So why, when oil and gas prices are soaring, do Australians feel poor? 💸We give more than half the gas we export away for free! #auspol

@OMGTheMess Spain is a peaceful democracy today, but after the civil war, Franco unalived about 150,000 enemies to make sure they wouldn’t come back and try again. History provides useful and horrifying lessons.

The time has come for the USA to pause and offer the Iranian leadership the opportunity to leave.

@DavidPocock Maybe the eastern states could start exploiting their own gas fields? Oh wait…

Looks like the government might finally be caving to the pressure myself, others on the crossbench & especially Australians in communities across the country have been putting on them to tax gas companies making wartime profits. Australians are already paying more on petrol & we shouldn’t be paying more on beer excise than the government gets for Petroleum Resources Rent Tax (PRRT). It’s encouraging to see Treasury modelling changes to the way gas is taxed. We should have a flat 25% tax on all gas exports & enough gas exports diverted into an east coast gas reservation & we need both now. abc.net.au/news/2026-03-2…

@SweeneySteve So Iran can no longer supply weapons by sea, air or land. Sounds good to me. I guess they can revert to using mules to deliver missiles.

Israel says it is bombing bridges to disrupt Hezbollah supply lines. But on the ground the reality is stark: entire routes into southern Lebanon are being severed — effectively cutting off around 1 million people from their homes. Families who have lived on this land for generations now face the very real risk of permanent displacement, unable to return, rebuild, or even reach what remains of their communities. What is being framed as a military tactic is also reshaping the map of civilian life

@boganintel I’d say the fact that non stealth jets are now overflying Iran constantly in daylight bombing what they like shows the F35 has been wildly successful as a SEAD platform.

The F-35 program has been a nightmare for Australia. From high sustainment costs, parts shortage and a difference in capability to what was advertised in the catalogue; the aircraft had been an overcomplex and overexpensive nightmare. Now it’s getting proven on the battlefield.

@bradpsychology No, consumers largely declined to buy them unless supported by unsustainable taxpayer subsidies

Your reminder: The Coalition spent a decade delaying the transition to EVs. smh.com.au/politics/feder…

@CaroDiRusso Had dinner with farmers last night. They’re contemplating spraying what they’ve planted so far to kill it so they preserve the nutrients for next season. Not worth letting it continue if they can’t get more fertiliser this year. Expensive decisions have to be made.

The only thing that is clear is that Julie has NFI. #auspol

@Partisangirl Persian trying to rescue women from the IRGC.

BREAKING🚨 while they were in Australia the Iranian female soccer team’s bus was rammed by crazy anti-Iran government protester. The media never showed this!

@larissawaters Which companies have reported higher profits as a result of the war?

Every time there’s a war or crisis, the price of petrol, food, energy and housing go up - and so do the profits for the corporations that sell them. That’s no coincidence. It’s the system working as designed. Billionaires sent us to war, and everyday people are paying for it.

@blakandblack Imagine if Australia had religiously driven terrorists who believed the extermination of all aboriginals was required to bring about the rapture, and their chant was “From Adelaide to the Arafura Sea, Australia will be free”.

The Zionisation of Australian politics and law enforcement … this is an attack on our #ruleoflaw and freedom of expression… sydneycriminallawyers.com.au/blog/banning-p…

@MixtUpMixy @AlboMP @AustralianLabor Looks like a rescue attempt to me.

Why didn’t we have this splashed across every headline in Australia?? How many of you knew about this incident? I didn’t. This is called domestic terrorism, & if it had been a bus for of Jewish athletes, you can bet that story would be running 24/7. @AlboMP @AustralianLabor

@TimLooker They exist to defend us against any threat that might arise in future. Since we don’t have crystal balls to show us the future, we have a capability that can respond to whatever threat arises.

Not one person, not one politician, not one minister has explained in believable terms just whom Australian Defence Forces are defending us from let alone why $billions are spent on weapons, ships, subs, planes and soldiers.

@NickMcKim Iran declared war on the west 47 years ago. It’s entirely legal to fight back, even if we’re a bit late in doing so

Labor has made Australia part of the illegal war on Iran.

@UraneJohn @AlboMP The intifada involved blowing up buses and cafes and murdering hundreds of civilians. Please let us know which cafe or bus you intend to blow up first - I’d rather be out of range.

I stand with Grace Tame, who is an extraordinarily brave young woman. I applaud her stance against war mongers and genocidists. Thank you, Grace, for exposing the zionists and their criminal agenda of murder, torture, and dispossession of the Palestinian people. #AUSPOL @AlboMP

@JosieMcskimming Remind me what happens to solar output during winter

‘Power prices on Aust’s east coast are predicted to fall from Jul because of increased output from wind generation & batteries, and falling electricity contract prices, with potential savings up to $1,320 for some small businesses.’ The future is here. theguardian.com/australia-news…
