Iran promises never to surrender as war enters eighth day The US-Israeli war against Iran has entered its second week with no signs of slowing down.

"What happened overnight in Lebanon’s Nabi Chit?"
This is the craziest story - Israeli troops in Lebanon, in a firefight with Hezbollah, a cemetery, and the reported body of a missing pilot from the 1980s.

You can tell how much Labor and the Coalition care about the poor Iranians by the way they hastily built a series of offshore concentration camps to imprison Iranian refugees *forever* when they tried to escape the regime.

Breaking: Antibiotic licence for salmon farming revoked over 'unacceptable risk' The use of florfenicol in Tasmania's salmon industry has been banned as the country's veterinary medicine regulator suspends an emergency licence for the antibiotic.

Good. No concern was given for the impact on other marine species nor for human health. #politas

β€˜We got there!’: Text messages reveal Woodside’s negotiating tactics Private text messages between Woodside officials and senior Australian decision-makers lift the lid on how the industry engages with government to get results.

Amazing piece giving insight into the relationship between major fossil fuel companies and senior government officials.

130 direct, personal, text messages in 4 months between a Woodside rep and a DCCEEW deputy secretary.

Albanese government rejected advice on Tasmanian salmon farming impact before passing pro-industry laws FoI documents show ministers ignored recommendation for fresh inquiry that could have reduced or paused farming

Far out.

β€œThe environment department advised the government in late 2024 that it should revoke a 2012 decision that allowed salmon farming to expand …”

Albanese Supported An Illegal War With No Clear Objective or End. It's A Grim New Low the Albanese government didn’t even know the reason for the war, let alone whether it was unlawful – but they supported it anyway.

It’s not just an illegal war. That would be bad enough.

Today, the Albanese government clearly admitted they gave our support to a war, without even knowing why it was launched.

Maybe when Israel finds its Mandela, you can ask your neighbors for theirs.

Right now, Israel & its leaders are like Eugene de Kock on crack. Asking for a Mandela is not just some chutzpah, it’s psychopathic behavior.

The stupidity of modern media is coming more evident by the hour.
Can’t hold in their head that bombs cause death and destruction, not peace.

Change β€˜literate’ to β€˜illiterate’, and this would make for a perfectly accurate obituary for Donald Trump.

Anyone talking about regime change might want to look at this.
This is a pro-regime rally.

Hmm wonder how Iran’s leader died? I guess we’ll never know. But gee I wish Tehran would cut it out with those missiles….
Bizarre that the ABC is just doing β€œTrump says” when he’s just launched an illegal war with Israel.
