  1. The #JCA ought to be given more oxygen as it represents the Jewish people who do not necessarity support the current government of #Israel, its policies or #Zionism. The Council is highly critical of the #AntiSemitism definition currently adopted on the grounds that it conflates anti-Semitism with #AntiZionism and #Anti-Israel. Despsite, or in spite of, #Murdock editorial policies.

    “On the one hand, News (Corporation) has attacked Schwartz for being supposedly antisemitic. On the other, it has criticised her for calling out the antisemitism she’s been subjected to by her Zionist opponents. But when you’re always right no matter what, this is not an inconsistency at all.” Says all that needs to be said about the #Fascist #Murdochmedia

  6. The new uncomfortable normality
    No Worries? Australian attitudes to national security, risk and resilience (report): National security starts at the front door – not at the territorial borders.

    "For most Australians, the 18-month research project revealed, national security starts at their front door – not at the territorial borders of the island continent. It showed they are worried the country is not prepared for the demands of a volatile 21st century in a polluted information ecosystem, where the rules-based international order is crumbling, economic precarity has become uncomfortably normal and trust is more fragile." >>

  7. Social cohesion and gritted-teeth tolerance

    "In 2022, for the first time in decades, the government commissioned a review of multiculturalism, Towards Fairness. It found Australia had muddled on, but squandered its world-leading status and recommended the government create a minister, a permanent commission and department for multiculturalism. Labor MP Dr Anne Aly was appointed multicultural affairs minister in 2025."

    She delivered a powerful speech last November:

    "Aly declared it was time to end “the conditional form of multiculturalism, that kind of gritted-teeth tolerance that,

    'You are welcome here as long as your food tastes good,

    your celebrations are colourful, and

    your music is present to the ears.’"

    "But any questioning, any speaking out, any disruptive participation in any practice of citizenship will not be tolerated. Instead, acts of citizenship afforded to the broader community are viewed as acts of defiance when performed by the other and are met with cries of, ‘Go back to where you came from,’ and ‘Love Australia or leave it.’ " >>

  8. 'Difficult' women

    "Grace Tame reacts to PM's comment labelling her 'difficult'."

    Tame: "'Difficult' is the misogynist's code for a woman who won't comply. History tends to call her 'courageous'.''
