Australia’s Shame: It’s had a Colonial Wall not as visible surrounding Indigenous Australians the foundations of which were imported and laid in 1788. It’s racist and may be crumbling ever so slowly but it needs to be pushed down and NO only repairs it and puts the brakes on the beginning of what needed to be changed for more than 250 years.
The political class internationally, with one voice, put out statements supporting “Israel’s right to self-defence,” a right they grant to the oppressor but deny to the oppressed.
Those are the people who need to be condemned.

When Influencers are politically and economically influenced like Vogue they set their standards extremely low. The Murdoch business model is proof.
The Arab News reports that Vogue did an instagram posting about model Gigi Hadid’s pledge to donate her fall earnings to Ukraine and Palestine, but erased the Palestine part. The erasure attracted widespread condemnation from progressives, and Vogue has now amended its Instagram posting to restore the model’s pledge to help Palestinians, as well. Vogue’s erasure of Palestinians from its Instagram notice has been seen as part of a pattern in which Palestine as a subject has been made taboo by pro-Israeli right wing nationalists, who deny Palestinian rights to peoplehood and statehood just as Vladimir Putin denies Ukrainians rights to peoplehood and statehood. The Israeli Right insists that all Palestinian territory actually belongs to Israel and that Palestinians can never be allowed to have their own state.
