Mission Impossible
Trump’s Hormuz blockade is live. Oil is at $102. China’s Defence Minister says the strait is open for Chinese ships and dares the US to stop them. A forty-nation coalition is forming against the blockade. And one of the last two tankers carrying pre-war oil on earth is heading to Australia. Urban Wronski on the war Trump cannot win. -

Hormuz Dateline
The war now has the smell of salt, oil, and old empires trying to defy the tide. Thirty-three kilometres. That is the width of the Strait of Hormuz at its narrowest navigable point: two shipping lanes, each two miles wide, one in, one out, with a median strip of Iranian territorial water between them. Through those lanes passes approximately 21 million barrels of oil every single day. That is one barrel in every five consumed anywhere on earth. Add the liquefied natural gas, and you have […] -

Not Reporting A War Part 2
Pete Hegseth is the Peter Principle applied to the largest weapons arsenal in human history. Pine Gap guides the missiles. Australian-made F-35 parts are in the payload. And our media calls it a partnership. Part Two of Urban Wronski’s investigation into what Australia’s press is not reporting, and what our silence is costing.https://urbanwronski.com/2026/04/12/not-reporting-a-war-part-2/

I read:
'Democracy is a system in which parties lose elections.' So they should.
By #tomtanuki | 2 November 2024 published on #independentaustralia (dot)net, and I got fired up. Not so much by this particular article, but too many similar pieces read over the past year. I needed to rant for a while…The thing about ‘internationalism’ is there are too many goddamn issues to care about. Getting over one’s obsession with whatever dreadful event is happening around the globe is dead easy since so many other inhumane actions can take it’s place. In the end, we are led by the nose by what we are told (from various outlets) and we rage against the loudest grievance. While I deplore the loss of life in the Middle East I will not be monopolised in this way. I fear as much as a third of the global population is suffering horrendous aggression and my heart goes out to them all, not selectively but to them all equally.
I funnel my ‘internationalist’ rage through the ballot box, conversations with friends and not-so-friends not by advocating for a particular national or ethnic community, but for all living things based on the turn of the conversation.
You are free, of course, to rage and fight on a very limited aspect of the human condition - that is your right. I just think that the scope is too narrow and tends to create zealots rather than change agents. Keepingour attent focused on the ‘news’ peddled by the msm, aided by social media, is playing into the hands of those responsible for aggressions perpetrated elsewhere, out of the limelight. The old saying: charity begins at home, is worth thinking about is its broader context. And when it comes to activism, combined with exemplar behaviour, we can ‘lead by example’ and change the world around us.
I’ll get off my soapbox now.
Thank you for reading this.#auspol #internationalism #Suffering #PlanetGoneMad #antifa #InUnity #MiddleEast #inequity #genocide

#Auspol #HigherEd #HECS #Scam #ATO #AustralianTaxOffice
The ATO is charging interest on HECS that has already been repaid! 😨
When interest rates were 1% it was barely noticeable. But now, it's hundreds of dollars that students are being scammed.HECS indexation increasing unaffordable student debt
“In 2020 and previous years, indexation was sitting around 1.8%- 2% and then a jump to 3.9% in 2022 and in 2023 a whopping 7.1%…
“Your HECS debt is indexed on 1 June every year before the end of the financial year. Really, it should be indexed after the start of the new financial year on 1 July.
“The problem with the indexation system is that the ATO hasn’t calculated the repayments your employer has made throughout the year, hence they are applying indexation to your debt amount from the start of the financial year.
“This means that a larger dollar amount will be indexed causing you to end up with more debt added on.
“The ATO should be including the payments you have already made to reduce the debt for that financial year.”

The #IndependentAustralia.net publication is so independent it goes through US #LiteSpeed servers. Lol
Truthfully we had them on a higher pedestal than most #publications, but lost respect for them when we saw they allowed themselves to be #MITMd.
