  • UK Opposition: “We do not believe that Israel’s actions in Gaza constitute genocide. The Israel Defence Forces do not deliberately target civilians.”

    UK Government: “I would not want to give the House or the public the impression that we have not taken significant steps in the course of the last 18 months.” Last week the House of Commons debated a motion on Parliament’s “obligation to assess the risk of genocide under international law” in regard to Occupied […]

  • The Media is Whitewashing Trump’s Board of Peace

    Imagine telling someone who has experienced the most apocalyptic conditions known to man to give their perpetrators a “chance.” That’s exactly what it felt like when I opened my phone the other day and saw headlines from The Washington Post and Wall Street Journal talking about Trump’s sham “Board of Peace,” which is supposed to […]

  • Precarious Invitations: Israel’s President Isaac Herzog’s Visit to Australia

    Things are getting rather ropey on the invitation of Israeli President Isaac Herzog to visit Australia on February 8. It came amidst the anguish following the Bondi Beach attacks of December 14, 2025 on attendees of a Hanukkah event by two gunmen, leaving 15 dead. Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese obviously thought it a sensible […]

  • Is the UN Being Wrecked So Western Leaders Can Escape Justice from the ICC and ICJ?

    On Thursday UK MPs will debate the motion “That this House has considered the obligation to assess the risk of genocide under international law in relation to the Occupied Palestinian Territories”. This follows an application from SNP MP Brendan O’Hara way back in June last year. As O’Hara said in his request, “it is to allow […]

  • Scholasticide in Palestine

    The term “scholasticide” emerged in the context of Israel’s long history of targeting Palestinian institutions of higher learning, culminating in Israeli forces destroying 95% of campuses and university buildings in Gaza from 2023 to 2025. We partnered with Taawon’s ISNAD program to document scholasticide and the determination of Palestinian scholars and students to resume teaching, […]

  • Scott Morrison in Israel

    Australia’s former Prime Minister and faithful Pentecostational conference on combating antisemitism held between January 26 and 27 at Jerusalem’s International Convention Center, ambitiously titled Generation Truth. The December 14, 2025 attack by two ISIS-inspired gunmen on those attending a Hanukkah event on Sydney’s Bondi Beach had supplied him with a hot script. Australia’s Albanese government […]

  • Who are the Criminals? Listen to Hind Rajab

    Who are the Criminals? Listen to Hind Rajab

    January 29, 2026, marks the second year since the Israeli military, using U.S. provisioned weapons, murdered Hind Rajab. Had she lived, this little Palestinian girl who liked to dress up as a princess would now be 7 ½ years old. An Israeli Defense Force unit fired a barrage of missiles at the car in which […]

  • Gaza Vanishing: Trump’s Board of Peace

    Donald Trump’s Board of Peace overseeing the reconstruction of Gaza was always going to raise a host of niggling questions. From the outset, the US President made it clear he would be the helmsman of what was essentially an outfit of selected corporate overseers tilling the soil for The Donald’s posterity fund. These anointed sorts […]

  • The Politics of Premature Adjudication: The Bondi Royal Commission

    Royal commissions are often held to confirm the obvious and squeak for modest change. They offer no binding remedies, have no compellable powers against the government of the day, and can, despite claiming to be independent, be susceptible to interest groups. They are also expensive, laborious, often lengthy, and serve as a pacifying agent, absorbing pressure and […]

  • Confronting Genocide with Civil Disobedience

    While the secret signals and surveillance facility at Pine Gap in Northern Australia, officially named the Joint Defence Facility Pine Gap (JDFPG) is billed as a joint affair between Australia and the United States, it is nothing of the sort. Just as offices direct the callow intern to make the coffee, Australian officials remain America’s […]
