The Nazification of Israel seems to be complete in the words of the Israeli Civil Administrator of the Palestinian West Bank in the Defense Ministry declaring a whole Palestinian town should be ” wiped out of existence”. The  American and Australian governments fully support the current Israeli government yet condemn China’s inhumanity for their re-education programs. Australia put refugees in offshore detention centres and kept them and their children there for decades keeping the conditions secret from the rest of the voting population and having Murdoch media’s Chris Kenny call them “luxury holiday camps”

The Israeli minister of finance, Bezalel Smotrich, who is also the civil administrator of the Palestinian West Bank in the Defense Ministry, called Wednesday for the Palestinian town of Huwwara to be “wiped out of existence.” Smotrich was at a conference held by the financial newspaper TheMarker, and was asked why he liked a Tweet sent out by Samaria Regional Council deputy head David Ben-Zion, which called for Huwwara to be “erased today” and added that there was “no room for mercy,” according to the Jerusalem Post..

The PM who slashed the most reputed government scientific research budgets of those studying Climate told us it wasn’t a government area of priority or responsibility but one for the marketplace to decide. Abbott now says ” there isn’t enough science”. Abbott is singing from the big Tobacco songbook flipping from denial to slowing down and stalling climate action.

Ex-Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott has joined the UK’s main climate denial group saying: “We need more science.”

Did you hear QANTAS made a “record profit”? Did you hear Joyce tell you the price won’t come down to where it was pre-Covid? Did you hear QANTAS was a “superior product”? Currently, all corporations seem to be singing the same song. Banks, Mining, Gas and Oil.

It costs you over $1000 to disconnect your gas isn’t that legalised extortion? It costs to change your bank loans. It “costs” your spending isn’t driving inflation corporate profiteering is.

New research points the finger at excess corporate profits as a core driver of inflation and says there’s scant evidence of a wage-price spiral in the Australian economy.

Fighting Fake News with REAL, 21/2/23, Gain vs Pain, Dutton, “Recognition” of Linda,

Fighting Fake News with REAL, 11/2/23, Asylum and the ALP, Value to Education,The SCAM,

A hypothetical Referendum question: Do you want Health and Education Improved? Peter  Dutton would vote No! Because the Government hasn’t detailed how yet detailing how would constrain any attempt in the Constitution. Dutton is simply frozen in time and space unable to move forward or backwards.

The referendum is our pick of a race. The horse and cart come after, and which cart is to be decided after the question of a necessary race is confirmed.  Peter Dutton says do nothing because choosing a horse and cart comes first. He and the LNP have done just that nothing for a decade, 10 years of simply saying Nope Nope Nope and then leaving the ALP to clean up the LNP mess. Dutton did nothing about Housing, Education or Health. In fact, he has voted the worst Health Minister on record along with being nominated the worst Immigration Minister ever and is blaming the ALP after 9 months for the mess we are in. Australia we have been Privatised and are paying and feeling the pain of that pleasure yet again.

The opposition leader said he wanted to see legislation in parliament on what the voice would look like and how the body would operate.

Collective Punishment is an instrument of a number of fascist regimes throughout history. Israel is in complete denial that it belongs on such a notable list. However, it’s a practice once condemned by Jews in the past and is now common practice of a State that claims to represent them.

Israel has sealed the home of an east Jerusalem man who killed seven people outside a synagogue, in a preliminary step ahead of the expected demolition of the building, as two Palestinian men died from Israeli fire. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s Cabinet approved an order to seal the home of a second Palestinian shooter — a 13-year-old boy who wounded two Israeli men in east Jerusalem on Saturday. His Cabinet also took steps toward approving other punitive measures against the families of Palestinian attackers, including potentially stripping them of citizenship rights and deporting them.

According to Sky News’s Andrew Bolt the youth of the world should have no say. Children need to be trained to obey their elders.

Public opinion is widely in favour of fairer political representation for young people. According to The Body Shop’s largest-ever global survey**, two thirds of people agree that the age balance in politics is wrong.
