Good news! Right now we are giving away our gas. When prices soar, we should all benefit. A super profits tax makes sense. The PRRT is not fit for purpose. This is a promising sign the govt is finally listening. This budget is the opportunity. #auspol abc.net.au/news/2026-03-2…


Stephen Walt is wrong again. His latest article in @ForeignPolicy, blaming the “Israel lobby” for the U.S. war with Iran is lazy analysis masquerading as realism. This was not a war fought for Israel; it was a war driven by clear American interests: confronting a brutal, anti-American regime, supporting the Iranian people, and preventing a dangerous power from going nuclear. Israel was not the cause. It was the partner. Walt once again reduces American strategy to an Israeli conspiracy. That is not serious analysis. He ignores the fact that Iran has declared war on the United States (the "Great Satan") and on Israel ("Little Satan") from its very first day, beginning with the seizure of the U.S. Embassy and the hostage crisis in 1979, continuing with the killing of hundreds U.S. Marines in Beirut in 1983, and extending to Iranian-made roadside bombs that caused hundreds of American deaths and injuries in Iraq. And the list goes on. The United States did not call “death to Iran”.; rather, it finally confronted Tehran seriously after years in which diplomacy failed to curb the regime’s aggressive behavior. Moreover, President Trump’s decision to engage militarily after the massacre of 30,000 brave Iranians should be recognized as a moment of courage in contrast to the West’s reliance on diplomatic condemnations and even disturbing silence from Western campuses. The U.S. confronted Iran because of its repression, aggression, nuclear ambitions, and direct threat to American interests. Calling that a war “on Israel’s behalf” is not just misleading. It is intellectually dishonest.


Pauline Hanson calls for Australia to help Donald Trump “stamp out evil” by entering the conflict with Iran, just days after the President accused America's allies of refusing to provide assistance. skynews.com.au/australia-news…
