I mean, it's far right attacks on left-leaning politicians. I can see where they're coming from - it's reminiscent of the brown shirts.

Agreed. This was a copout.
They're a last-ditch liberation movement with four discreet wings of praxis, dude. Moreover, the Palestinian Authority is collaborationist with occupying forces - this isn't about manufacturing an endless war, though I'm sure Lockheed Martin and Elbit shareholders would love that - this is about reclaiming tangible avenues for political agency that were either captured or outright denied, violently, by 'Israel'.
You disagree, sure, but you don't seem to understand the inhuman scale, decades of systemic violence, a population has to endure to make violence the only mutually understood language left.
Also - to your point - it doesn't help how many peaceful community leaders, politicians and organizers have been assassinated by the IOF and settlers in the last 75 years. Democracy, as presented by the PA, was never earnest or effectual in occupied Palestine - it was always a membrane of indigenous skin stretched over the occupiers demands.
The attack was claimed by ISIS-K - a foreign fighter offshoot/offbrand. Funny thing is that ISIS-K fighters were getting lifts from American chanook helicopters in Afghanistan and is largely made up of US assets and/or people formerly trained by the US in Afghanistan.
Lots points to it being a CIA asset, tldr. They're a dirty army that can be used to keep an area distabilised or prevent other geopolitical powers from building infrastructure/influence (the nutshell purpose of ISIS-K, particularly in Afghanistan to prevent pipelines being built).
They had the inside scoop on an attack outside any usual operating theatre by a group with tangible links to US cooperation/orientation? No kidding.
It's because the port is a forward operating base and entrenches the annexation of Northern Gaza. They built a road splitting Gaza into two and are shooting anyone who approaches it. Add to that the US wants warships present to defend the oilfields it's just been liscenced by the occupation forces.
This is, and always was, about money and ethnic cleansing. Fuck israel, free Palestine.
Praise Rand. So wise.
Actually, as a fun little aside, can you explain to me what you think Fascism is?
When you think the Brisbane Times couldn't be more of a rag - not that I would expect political literacy from an outfit that struggles even with journalism but bloody hell.
Fraser Annings office was literally in our CBD - like come off it.
People, Palestinians - primary sources - post footage they film on the ground and send out via TikTok et al - that's raw footage. Like I'm still lost on what were you trying to say with that drone comment.
I'm surprised noone has mentioned Fraser Anning - he was going to mask off neo-Nazi rallies and when the Christchurch massacre happened he basically came out in Parliament and said "they deserve it".
When he was censured, he doubled down in his last speech.
Or the guy who outright says he's a "science skeptic".
We're very literally banana republic and it shows often.
Yeah, they're both colonies. Australia was the blueprint for Apartheid. I speak as an Australian - don't trust these snakes. Penny Wong is an avowed ally to the Zionist project.
?
Just so we're on the same page here - what exactly do you think raw footage means?
Good bot!
