  • The Politics of Indefinite Detention in Australia

    The High Court of Australia is not known for its zealotry in protecting human rights, and certainly not when considering the persuasive pull of international law and conventions.  The Australian Parliament is usually given a generous hand in making policies that tend to outrage such conventions, a freedom made that much easier by an absence […]

  • “Gaza is Becoming A Graveyard for Children”

  • The Ideological Mystification of Palestinian Resistance

    In the Zionist ideological architecture, any discourse on Palestine has to be prefaced by the question “Do you condemn Hamas?” The underlying rationale of this question is that anti-colonial violence is a symbol of “barbarism” that needs to be met with absolute contempt.

  • Sunak’s Dad’s Army Option: David Cameron Returns

    Openly ignored by his incendiary, now ex-Home Secretary, Suella Braverman, UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak was left with few options.  Retaining her would continue a process of blighting his already precarious prime ministership, suggesting weakness and a distinct lack of authority.  Kicking her off the Cabinet front bench would, while reasserting some measure of control, […]

  • Unintended Ironies: Condemning the Armistice Day Marches

    Armistice Day is one of those disturbing occasions of the year when humanity’s folly is laid bare.  It should be an occasion to remind said humanity about the stupid waste occasioned by war and its war-crazed planners who generally elude the dock; instead, it’s an occasion to extol its virtues and remind the reactionaries that […]
