Just a post to recognise the bravery of Brittany Higgins and Grace Tame. It may seem random but it is not. Today, the Grace Tame Foundation board revealed Grace's legacy organisation will close. This news is devastating. We need more small activist-led NFPs and charities working to end violence against women and children in Australia. They can make a real difference where larger organisations cannot. I have no doubt Grace's voice will never be silenced and she will forge her legacy under her own steam. But still, to lose the foundation is a blow and one that will take time to heal from. Also today, the final chapter closed (legally speaking) for Brittany, with the High Court of Australia throwing out rapist Bruce Lerhmann's final attempt at retribution and for silencing her. Lerhmann faces another rape trial toward the end of the year. Thinking of the woman at the centre of that case today as well. Photo via @marieclaireau

Nest step for Albanese is to unequivocally condemn the murderous regime of Israel.

🚨 MAJOR BREAKING: Pakistan just said it directly. The ceasefire included Lebanon. Not implied. Not assumed. Not lost in translation. Included. Pakistan’s Prime Minister put it in the announcement. In writing. With U.S. involvement. And now Israel is bombing Beirut. And Vance calls it a “reasonable misunderstanding.” And Netanyahu says Lebanon was never part of the deal. Someone is lying.

APAN is suing Newscorp DeepcutNews

As Jewish Australians, we are devastated to learn of the Israeli assault on Lebanon yesterday. We urge @AlboMP and @SenatorWong to speak out against Israel's violent escalation and call on the Government to take decisive action by demanding an immediate ceasefire.

Siyamak Moreh Sedgh , A Jewish man in Tehran: “last night there was an attack against a synagogue in Tehran and it shows that the Zionist regime has no belief in the Jewish principles.”

One of the greatest scenes in British satire ever 🤣😂👏

Journalist: "Why is Israel starving Gaza’s people?" Israeli Minister: "Only an antisemite would even ask that."

Members of the Iranian Jewish community inspect what is left of their synagogue in Tehran after Israel bombed it. On Passover...

Israeli TV has a COUNTDOWN for Trump's genocide tonight. These people are animals. Pray for Iran.

I've taught European history for 30 years. Americans have always asked me how the Holocaust was possible, how Germans could have enabled a madman reveling in mass murder to carry out his plans. Now we can see in real time how this is enabled; now we have front-row seats.

Genocide grants. They hid it. Government has given $78m in grants to Australian F-35 suppliers. Used in Israel slaughter in Gaza and probably now in illegal bombing of Iran @sstephanietrann #auspol michaelwest.com.au/genocide-grant…

The synagogue Trump destroyed in Iran was an anti-Zionist synagogue. The synagogue that was set on fire in australia was also anti-Zionist.

Members of Iran’s Jewish community standing in the rubble of their synagogue in Tehran. Bombed by Israel. On Passover. Iran is home to the largest Jewish population in the Middle East outside of Israel. They have lived there for 2,700 years. This is who Israel bombed on the holiest night of the Jewish calendar.

This is a terrific reform.

Anyone else delighted Trump has singled Australia out as being unhelpful regarding the Iranian war.. Great stuff Albanese

A 1.4% levy on the gambling industry could compensate the media for ALL revenue lost from a potential gambling advertising ban. Australians lose more money gambling than any other country. It's time for our governments to act. @AmyRemeikis #auspol

@MrRexPatrick @noplaceforsheep @thaussiimmi Cancel AUKUS and order Japanese submarines now

@thaussiimmi If we cancel AUKUS, we will not get US submarines. If we don’t cancel AUKUS, we will not get US submarines.

Donald, there’s only one appropriate punishment for Australia - cancel #AUKUS (please)! #auspol

Release David McBride.
