Remember kids, we're not selling arms to Israel.. we're just buying them, and then it's not our business what Israel spends that money on!

The Israelis being called "hostages" and the Palestinians being called "detainees" is propaganda.

The Israelis are being returned to family and supported by state-of-the-art medical technology to reintegrate them into their lives.

The Palestinians are being returned to the wreckage of their homes to dig through rubble and try to find the corpses of their children.

There are at least 11,056 Palestinian hostages, and unknown numbers of dead. But only 2000 are being released.

But everything in the media will be about the 20 Israeli hostages, and 28 Israeli bodies for propaganda sake.

The rebranding of the plaza outside the Yel Aviv Museum of Art as "Hostages Square" is for propaganda sake.

Every step in this "peace" will be a move by Israel to reify the idea that Palestinians are less than human and deserve to be murdered. By talking about the 20 Israeli *hostages*, but ignoring the at least 11,056 Palestinian *detainees*, they are pushing the idea that Israel was humane and Palestine was savage.

When you hear about the Israeli hostages, don't forget people like Saber Masalma—a Palestinian man who has been a hostage of Israel for 24 years.

When you hear Israel complain that Hamas is going back on their promise to return the bodies of dead Israeli hostages, remember that they are having to find those dead bodies in cities that have been bombed to oblivion by Israel.

When you hear Israel talk about Hamas as being brutal and violent, remember Israel instituted the Hannibal Directive and killed their own people.

It's not over until Palestine is free.

"From the river to the sea" doesn't mean we stop at a ceasefire agreement.

'In fact, he argues, Australia’s history makes it acutely vulnerable to precisely that [decent towards fascism].

“You guys are probably next, right? The first domino to go.

“You guys had a White Australia policy until the 1970s. That’s a terrible sign. And you attacked your universities ages ago.”

Stanley cites, as well, Australia’s history of Indigenous displacement, its “performatively vicious” treatment of asylum seekers and the fierce “anti-woke” rhetoric that pierces public discourse.

Stanley points out that fascism often comes cloaked in the language, the institutions and the processes of democracy: an insidiousness that lies in seeking to appear democratic.

“Fascism conceals its anti-democratic nature by representing itself as the general will of the people, where ‘the people’ are the dominant racial or religious group.

“It will say ‘the majority of people want this’, but that’s not the core idea of democracy. The core idea of democracy is not the tyranny of the majority. Democracy is a system based on freedom and equality.”'

So, Australia has officially recognised the state of Palestine.

Can we please stop selling Israel weapons now?
