Australia’s shameful military ties to Israel under scrutiny after killing of aid worker

The murder of an Australian humanitarian worker in Gaza has again highlighted the deplorable hypocrisy of our Defence Department’s ties to Israel, Dr Binoy Kampmark writes.

Any such equivalent investigation into the IDF personnel responsible for the killing of Frankcom and her colleagues is unlikely. When the IDF talks of comprehensive reviews, we know exactly how comprehensively slanted they will be.

Does Zionism Lead to Genocide? – ScheerPost

“The Israel lobby has sought to consolidate October 7th as something that towers even above Pearl Harbor, January 6th and 9/11 as a date that represents a new holocaust …They’ve done that in order to decontextualize the event and erase all the history that preceded it, which helps us understand why it took place,” Blumenthal tells Scheer.

Scheer and Blumenthal also detail how, through censorship, false reporting and other aspects of the information war, the stories of Palestinians continue to get lost and misrepresented, especially with the strength of Israeli propaganda.

“Zionism as applied in Palestine will always lead towards genocide. That’s the ultimate goal. They have to finish 1948. There’s no way to do it without genocide,” Blumenthal said.
