@Imresal @antloewenstein Notably calling for trials, rather than any violence.

When the anti-Zios disavow any connection with Islamist extremism, please remind them that, one month before Bondi, @antloewenstein said Jewish communities in Sydney were complicit in genocide and should be charged with war crimes: antonyloewenstein.com/cms/wp-content…

@QuentinFry They almost certainly have a third term in the bad. They should use this budget to start taking the electorate on the journey over next 2 years to have a bolder election platform IMO. Libs should do the same. Need to recognise the societal shift we’re facing.

@snrsnap I do think Chalmers has genuine desire, but as you say there's so much compromising with vested interests it ends up not doing what is says on the box, with other derivative consequences. Have to see the detail Tuesday of course...

I'd have far more respect for them if they just said there's too much speculative malinvestment, especially in particular unproductive asset classes, and that needs to be curtailed through the tax system. Just don't give me this 'intergenerational equity' BS. 😅🙄 #auspol

@GrayConnolly Are you seriously trying trying to argue journalists/media didn’t criticise Daesh?

Israelis immediately investigated & punished the delinquents esp as Israelis have Christians in the IDF ... meanwhile the very same media trying to stir outrage here were noticeably silent when Christians were being beheaded by 'moderate rebels' Daesh on YouTube

Imagine undermining the prestige of the office so badly that footage shared by POTUS now needs to include the “unverified” disclaimer.

@icumcurry @dannolan Dude have you heard about pokies?!?

@dannolan being able to bet on everything from mundane to highly consequential events inevitably leads to societal degeneration

if we go to war you HAVE to let australia access polymarket come ON

@MattPrider @latikambourke @profsarahj It’s not needed. It’s a self inflicted own goal by US and Israel, and 100% not a fight for us to deploy to. We have a DEFENCE force, an actual global threat on our regional doorstep, and nothing in our toolkit that will contribute materially to keeping the straight open.

@snrsnap @latikambourke @profsarahj Well they are paid for by us for this exact purpose. Not much point having a military if you don’t use it when needed. It’s not all easy stuff like putting tarps on peoples roofs.

Australia signs on...

@MattPrider @latikambourke @profsarahj I just don’t understand why Iran would do such a thing. Completely unprompted. Out of nowhere. At least US and Israel are respecters of International Law and would never target civilian energy infrastructure!! We should definitely put Australian troops and ships in harms way!!!!!

@latikambourke @profsarahj We should be sending ships and planes rather than signing paperwork to laws that no one obeys. Every country that uses/needs that oil should be offering a boot to stick deep up Iran’s arse. Most is not from Iran.

@ohhushreads @FranktonJR Great team goal. The quick counter, the touch, the perfectly weighted passes and of course Kerr - pure class.

@FranktonJR The blonde girl with the sliding touch near midfield is the real hero of this play. She doesn't make that touch and this play doesn't happen.

@cracckman @sentdefender He makes it clear he believes the Iraq War was a result of manipulation by Israel. The fight against ISIS is/was a direct consequence of that.

@sentdefender Joe Kent's wife died fighting ISIS and not for Israel.

The Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, Joseph Kent, has resigned effective immediately stating "I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby." Kent was nominated by President Trump in February of 2025 and confirmed by the U.S. Senate on July 30th.

@Osint613 @EricLDaugh I wonder how constantly belittling, undermining, threatening to invade, and broadly shitting all over your allies might have impacted current and future calls for assistance…

Another banger from today… REPORTER: Did you speak to President Macron about reopening the Strait of Hormuz? TRUMP: Yes. He's been an 8 out of 10. Not perfect. but it's FRANCE! We don't EXPECT perfect! Via @EricLDaugh (he’s a great reporter and deserves a follow)

@dannolan It’s not very typical. I’d like to make that point. There are a lot of these ships going around the world all the time, and very seldom does anything like this happen.

Is this good

@GrayConnolly Grift recognises grift.

Drew like Trump is a natural poaster …. Game knows Game

@gearside More an issue for the Nats than Libs. And in the current cluster shambles that is the federal coalition - it’s a fourth order issue at best.

massive brand guidelines fail for the libs not drinking VBs or northerns you think barnaby would be caught dead drinking peronis ?

@GrayConnolly How careless then to send such an important state into chaos with apparently no concrete transition plan nor willingness or plan for involvement outside of a few days.

US & Israel can strike Iran, decapitate leadership, "mow the grass" etc but it is for Iranians to overthrow the Mullahs regime - and if Iranians do not, then a deal will have to be made with who in the regime is left as Iran (100m+ in centre of world) is too important for chaos

@plebcapital @Craig_Foster lol got him!!1! What a commie, saying international law is good.

Australia’s endorsement of this action is inconsistent with our obligations under the UN Charter and the principle that the rules-based order applies equally to all states. The Prime Minister should not be supporting it. Advocating for the human rights and democratic freedoms of the Iranian (or any) people does not mean supporting illegal acts that increase risk to the people, the country, the region and the world. Often, we need only ask what the response would be if the roles were reversed - and Australia would certainly not support these actions against ally States. These double standards undermine both international law and Australia’s credibility. This action violates: 1.UN Charter Articles 2(4) and 51 — no armed attack occurred and no imminent threat existed, given a diplomatic breakthrough on IAEA verification was announced less than 24 hours earlier; 2.The Declaration on Friendly Relations (1970) and Definition of Aggression (1974) — bombardment with the stated objective of regime change constitutes aggression; 3.International Humanitarian Law — with reports of strikes on a girls’ school killing at least 85 children and over 200 dead; and 4.The Nuremberg Principles — aggressive war is the supreme international crime. Any response by Iran must also abide by humanitarian law and avoid targeting civilians. In sport meanwhile, FIFA is bound to support international law, has continually rewarded Trump and is now supporting violations against a World Cup participant while the justifications are almost identical to those given by Russia for Ukraine, for which almost immediate sanctions were imposed. Australians should be very clear that support for, or participation in violations of international law make Australia a target and increase risks to all Australians. While politicians often state they ‘don’t want to bring violence here’, they directly support those committing it — through weapons parts, funding, intelligence, statements. This is both illogical, and dangerous. Australia should support the fundamental rights of all people while remaining a consistent voice for equal application of international law. This keeps both us, and the world, safer.

@sarhanis @MarkDiStef Yes, because she’s economically illiterate and plays to culture wars and xenophobia more than any genuine model of governance.

@MarkDiStef Farage wouldn’t have gotten a look in 30 years ago. He does now. Times have changed. Hanson is demented — but she does seem like the only politician who would actually lower immigration.

Mate they literally already did that.

@mumbletwits Those are horrible odds to back any semblance of an effective campaign out of vic Libs…

Good odds imo, but an eight month wait.😒

@altere_ @AntonyGreenElec @Terri_1987a It’s not baffling at all. They’re using old poll results that didn’t ask about nats because it is a lib seat and up until recently the coalition parties rarely contest the same seat to avoid 3 sided campaigns.

@AntonyGreenElec @Terri_1987a It's baffling they would exclude the Nationals from their made up prospects. I'm convinced this is just another small example of a broader astroturfing campaign to prop up PHON

Early Polling in the Federal seat of Farrer..
