I will never understand how these hypocrite plundering MAGA plutocrats (including deflecting article publisher NYT) can denounce antisemitism but not the genocidal colonialist whitenationalist '#zionism' ideology that promotes, amplifies, and requires it.
“Fire in Every Direction”: Palestinian Author Tareq Baconi on Gaza, Zionism & Embracing Queerness
Palestinian writer Tareq Baconi joins us to discuss his new memoir, Fire in Every Direction, a chronicle of his political and queer coming of age growing up between Amman and Beirut as the grandson of refugees from Jerusalem and Haifa. While “LGBTQ+ labels have also been used by the West as part of empire,” with colonial projects seeking to portray Native populations as backward and in need of saving, “there’s a beautiful effort and movement among queer communities in the region to reclaim that language,” says Baconi. “I identify as a queer man today as part of a political project. It’s not just a sexual identity. It expands beyond that and rejects Zionism and rejects authoritarianism, and that’s part of my queerness.”
Baconi also comments on the so-called ceasefire agreement in Gaza and the election of Zohran Mamdani in New York City. “Palestinians are the ones that have to govern Palestinian territory, not this international force that comes in that takes any kind of sovereignty or agency away from the Palestinians,” he says.
Usrula von der Leyen intervened to have an Italian journalist sacked - for asking an EU official
"if Russia must pay for reconstruction in Ukraine, should Israel pay for rconsitrcution in Gaza?"
Several other journalists have been sacked for doing real journalism.

"...a behind-the-scenes portrait of Betar USA, the militant Zionist street group that claims credit for guiding the Trump administration's jailing and attempted deportation of pro-Palestine student activists"
Betar meets the definition of terrorist organization. These guys are so drunk on Zionism, that when they watched the finished documentary, they liked it. They were proud of it. They thought it was a celebration of all things Betar...

“This problematic classroom censorship bill silences Muslim, Arab, Palestinian, Jewish, and other marginalized voices in California public schools by shielding a foreign government — Israel — from legitimate criticism and criminalizes honest discussions on Palestine and other global human rights issues,” the Council on American Islamic Relations said in a statement."

What would Whitlam think of the Albanese Government?
an interesting conversation between John Menadue and Bart Shteinman about whitlam’s style, compared to that of albanese
—-a mid length but rewarding read covering a range of topics
“John Menadue: On the American relationship, it would be very, very different. Whitlam showed his colours about a month after his election by criticising the American bombing of Hanoi and Haiphong. The Americans were terribly upset with that, because we were supposed to be a locked-in ally. People around the White House with Nixon were calling us — or at least the Australian Government, the prime minister — “North Vietnamese collaborators”. And there were some rude words that Nixon said about Whitlam – that they were “peaceniks” or worse!”
and
“Whitlam was the first person who explained to me the difference between Judaism and Zionism. As a young man I hadn’t appreciated the difference. He explained it to me, and it was quite a revelation.”

an interjection from maude:
incidentally, 
iirc, israel in the 60s & 70s had the west’s sympathy (“remember the holocaust”, and Leon Uris books)… the reaction in 1978 after the oscars where Vanessa Redgrave spoke in favour of Palestine was huge
anyway, back to the article discussing whitlam and albanese
————-
“John Menadue: Most people would agree the politics of the Connor fundraising left a lot to be desired. It was messy, very difficult. Gough expressed a lack of confidence in Treasury and Treasury paid it back in spades, leaking a lot of information about the loan raising. So it was politically very damaging.
But what drove Rex Connor and was supported in the Labor Party generally was lost sight of in the whole “loans affair”. It was an attempt by the government to address the problem of foreign ownership of our resources. Now, around 80% of our resource industries are owned offshore: BHP, Rio Tinto, and so on, and Rex Connor was trying to head that off. Instead of selling off our companies, we would borrow but retain ownership in Australia. That would have been difficult to achieve, but that’s what drove Rex Connor, and most Australians would applaud that now.”
and
“We often hear Lord Acton: “Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely,” but it was Robert Caro who made the point that power reveals what people are really like…”

“When a regime reaches a stage where its terror is overt, blatant & w/out masks, it is a sign that it has exhausted itself. Violence that can no longer be covered up or justified becomes a tool for survival in the final stage of control”

I hear someone pumped gastric wind into Eve Fartlow and she had opinions today....

Has anybody seen Jonathan Greenblatt and Stephen "Sexual Matador" Miller in the same room?
www.cair.com/press_releases/breaking-cair-calls-on-adl-to-fire-ceo-jonathan-greenblatt-after-unhinged-racist-rant-against-black-palestinian-americans/
Greenblatt is a racist. Stands by the guy doing Nazi salutes, condemns the Muslim for being....Muslim basically.
Race baiting liars being called out on National TV, excellent!
