🚨 MAJOR NEWS: Pope Leo XIV just declared the Iran War unjust. Called it a war crime. Said it is “not solving anything.” And told Americans directly — call Congress. End this war.

There is no military objective that justifies the wholesale destruction of a society's infrastructure or the deliberate infliction of suffering on civilian populations. Conflicts end when leaders choose dialogue over destruction, @antonioguterres says. news.un.org/en/story/2026/…

BREAKING: IRANIANS FORMING HUMAN-CHAINS ON BRIDGES AND INFRASTRUCTURE TO PROTECT THE COUNTRY AGAINST TRUMP

It is starting to be less what Trump says but more that there is clearly no-one who can or will stop him.

@campbellclaret @RichardBentall Let’s also remember whilst Trump soaks up the headlines, Israel is quietly getting on with committing war crimes.

@campbellclaret @AlboMP and @SenatorWong any comment? 🦘🦘🦘Sorry Alastair our mob are pretty spineless. And as for @RichardMarlesMP - he’s a complete sycophant to the US.

It is surely incumbent on all US allies, and everyone else, to condemn Trump’s threat of war crimes and genocidal intent (themselves war crimes) and to have absolutely nothing to do with this deranged “plan” coming from the mouth of a man out of control and surrounded by cultists and sycophants

@SpoxCHN_LinJian @MFA_China I hope we have the fuel to ensure a positive mutual trade.

Chinese Premier Li Qiang held a phone conversation with Australian PM Anthony Albanese. The current international situation is intertwined with changes and turbulence, and the world economy has been continuously impacted by geopolitical instability, protectionism and other factors. #China is willing to deepen mutually beneficial cooperation with #Australia, jointly uphold multilateralism and free trade, inject more impetus into the development of both countries, and provide greater stability to the region and the world. China is ready to import more quality products from Australia, work with Australia to continuously expand and upgrade bilateral trade, and support businesses from both countries in cooperating in line with market rules for win-win outcomes. 🔗fmprc.gov.cn/zyxw/202604/t2…

Wake up: he is calling for A NUCLEAR STRIKE. Seek his removal immediately.

As Donald Trumps’ threat of bombing the infrastructure comes close to the deadline. This is what is happening in Iran: 1. 14 million people have volunteered to sit on the bridges, power plants, roads and other infrastructure throughout Iran. 2. These people have already started to gather at these places. 3. World has never seen such an act of bravery from any nation where ordinary people are risking their lives to save their country. UNBELIEVABLE. Simply Unbelievable.

Absolute bombshell. Tucker Carlson publicly urges the US military and Pentagon officials to actively defy Donald Trump and refuse orders if he attempts to launch nuclear weapons against Iran. The administration is completely out of control.

@AlboMP @SenatorWong @abcnews how can we possibly continue to have the US as an ally? #auspol get us out of #AUKUS now before V we get sucked into more war crimes.

This isn't Berlin. This isn't Soho. This isn't New York. It's somewhere far more interesting and friendly....it's Tehran. The level of misinformation about the country is staggering. This is what the US is bombing. For Israel.

Say yes and pass it on.

Two stories are hiding inside the Roberts-Smith arrest. One: how power, patronage, and institutional inertia can insulate a man from accountability long after the facts are settled. Two: how journalists, judges, and investigators eventually refused to look away. Both stories matter. Both explain the moment we’re in.

@_marching_Ents_ @AlboMP Yes, and this is his Twitter post tonight. Omg!

@AlboMP We are on the brink of NUCLEAR WAR. 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

A subscription shouldn’t be a trap. That’s why we’re banning subscriptions that lock you in because they’re too hard to cancel.

@SenatorWong @AlboMP why?

Iran is requiring oil tankers passing through the strait to pay in yuan rather than dollars, a direct challenge to the petrodollar system that has underpinned American financial and geopolitical power since the 1970s.  At least two vessels have already complied.  The petrodollar is not just a currency arrangement. Since the 1974 deal between the US and Saudi Arabia, global oil has been priced in dollars, forcing every nation on earth to accumulate dollars just to keep the lights on and the trucks moving.  That artificial demand is what allowed Washington to print money, run deficits, and project military power no other country could afford. Oil was not just energy. It was the mechanism by which the dollar became the operating system of the global economy. The US national debt crossed $39 trillion on March 18, just weeks into the war. Interest costs are now the fastest-growing line item in the federal budget, and the US has suffered credit downgrades from all three major rating agencies.  The petrodollar was the invisible subsidy that made those numbers survivable. Without it, they are not. Billionaire investor Ray Dalio drew a direct parallel to Britain’s 1956 Suez Crisis, which marked the end of the British Empire, warning that the US is now facing a similar test.  The irony is sharp: the war launched to reassert American dominance in the Gulf may be the very event that ends it. China did not fire a single shot. Beijing has emerged as the alternative: Saudi Arabia’s largest trading partner, a provider of technology and weapons without conditions, and the architect of yuan-based currency swaps across the region. If Gulf states abandon the petrodollar, global dollar demand collapses.  A weaker dollar means inflation, higher borrowing costs, and reduced geopolitical leverage. At the extreme, losing reserve currency status could force the US to consume less than it produces, a structural adjustment that would be deeply painful.  The war meant to protect the petrodollar may be the thing that finally cracks it. Lindsey Graham says the US is going to make a ton of money. Beijing is counting on it.

I want to know, and I suspect others want to know. There needs to be public debate on how we should address our national fuel security. #FOI #auspol
