Meanwhile Australia quibbles over words on a #UnitedNations resolution No text, no talk. Palestinians plunged into digital darkness in Gaza. washingtonpost.com/world/2023/10/…

So far Tony Burke and Ed Husic have been courageous, sensible articulate and correct in their statements on Palestine. I expected more from the parliamentary Labor Left who have, over many years, made an important contribution to supporting peace in the Middle East. #Insiders

More children have been killed in Gaza in the last 3 weeks than the total number killed in all global conflicts in the last four years. Let that sink in. Source: Save the Children/The Age.

abc.net.au/news/2023-10-3… via ABC Australia Is the killing of almost 1000 Palestinian children every week self defence? And imagine if it was 1000 American children a week being killed. Would the world react differently? My latest column

John Howard says he ‘always had trouble’ with the concept of multiculturalism. Really John? You hid that so well. theguardian.com/australia-news…

The Australian government warns Israel on civilian deaths in Gaza but Anthony Albanese & Senator Penny Wong stop short of calling for a ceasefire. Until they do, their support provides cover for Israel's war crimes against civilians. They need to urgently call for a #CeasefireNOW⬇️

Don’t like to see any journalists banned from covering particular stories but especially when that ban is imposed by editors who took junkets to Israel.

Did ABC journalists by taking a free trip to Israel bring into question their ability to cover the story impartially? Apparently not. So why bully those signing a petition suggesting the media can do better? Journalists have opinions. Who would have thought?

This article makes me ill. Are we meant to feel sorry for schools charging tens of thousands in fees because they might lose a smidge of their public funding (why are they getting any in the first place) & have to pay their teachers more? smh.com.au/national/nsw/t…

If I may, there’s something I need to get off my chest. As democracy remains under siege, it has been frustrating to watch how the press covers politics these days. I am reminded by lessons that came to me during the Nixon years as a CBS News correspondent, which I’ll add here:
