According to #TheShot, Australia is supplying explosives that eventually find its way expended in #Gaza and no doubt #Lebanon as well. We know F35 fighter jet parts made in Australia make their way to #Israel as well. Hence makes us complicit in the #Genocide in Gaza, complicit to the #WestBank #EthnicCleansing, complicit to the bombings in Lebanon and #Iran. Though not directly involved, our Govt sees fit to ignore the attrocities commited by the #ZionistEmpire in the #MiddleEast.
There is no coming back from this. We’re complicit. And the stone-faced silence of our polies and #Defence officials is an indictment of that complicity. David Milner in this article for The Shot waxes lyrical a bit much in my view and uses emotive tropes a bit too loosely but it doesn’t detract from the fact that our govt is, in one way or another, enabling the #NetanyahuRegime and its supporting #UltraNationalist fascists in their military pursuit of #Lebensraum.
Shame on us Aussies.

Given that the prevailing orientation on this platform tends to be #progressive many of the observations that follow will likely be already familiar, if not obvious, to those reading me. Nevertheless, I believe it is worthwhile to offer a more articulated reflection on the recent neo-fascist and #ultranationalist waves sweeping across #europe insinuating themselves into everyday discourse with a language that blends identity anxiety with "sovereigntist" claims.
What is particularly striking is the absence of any coherent economic project beneath this identity-driven rhetoric. I struggle to discern a clear, defined, and workable plan for that phantom model of society which, by gazing backward, promises to safeguard national well-being. One inevitably wonders about the concrete nature of this vision. Is it perhaps a return to a pre-globalization era? If so, what instruments do they intend to employ? Do they plan to tighten fiscal pressure on domestic companies that, showing little patriotic attachment, have offshored production? Do they think of blocking low-cost imports from China, or of replicating on a smaller scale the US model of selective tariffs? Then there is the question of #remigration perhaps the most emblematic and relentlessly promoted, though riddled with deep inconsistencies. The obsession with expelling migrants is presented as a panacea for all the country's ills, but the reasoning does not hold. Even if we expelled them all, structural problems such as job precarity, an ailing healthcare system, abandoned peripheries, and the lack of public services would remain intact.
Thus far, these are my doubts concerning the economic dimension. But my true interest, the question that most concerns me as a historian, lies on a different plane, deeper and perhaps more elusive. What does it mean today to identify with a #nation? It is a theme I have long studied, fascinated by the centrality of ethnic discourse in political debate and, at the same time, by its consistently superficial treatment in the mass media. The nation, in fact, is neither an eternal entity nor a given of nature. Like all social constructs, it has a beginning, a development, and, of course, an end. Just think of how many peoples have disappeared over the course of history, assimilated, transformed, become something else. If we look at the Italian case, it becomes evident that our cultural heritage is not the fruit of some purported original essence or irremediable immutability, but rather the result of stratifications, overlays, and hybridizations that, over the centuries, have left an indelible mark on the construction of what we might call #Italianness. When we think of the construction of our cultural symbols, our minds inevitably turn to Magna Graecia and ancient Rome, but our imaginary is equally marked by Byzantium, the Lombards, the Normans, the Aragonese, and the Angevins. There are Arab influences in Sicily, French influences in Piedmont, Spanish influences in the Kingdom of Naples, not to mention the historical presence of Albanian, Croatian, and Slovenian communities within the peninsula's territories. Italy, long before becoming a unitary state, was for centuries a crossroads of the Mediterranean and Europe, a place of passage, exchange, and intermingling, a continuous laboratory of cultural hybridization.
Consider then language, perhaps the most striking example. The Italian we speak today is not the product of a natural necessity, but of a literary and political choice. Dante, Petrarch, and Boccaccio did not write in standard Italian but in Florentine vernacular, one dialect among many, which only centuries later, thanks to schooling, politics, the authority of poets and writers, and eventually the mass media, would be elevated to a common language. This process, it must be said, was imposed from above as an instrument of national unification. Even today, anyone living in Italy knows that dialects are not corruptions of Italian but autonomous languages, often older than the nation itself, custodians of stories, knowledge, and worldviews at risk of flattening in the modern age, but continuing to resist, reminding us that Italy has always been an archipelago of voices.
Therefore, and here I believe left-wing movements make a mistake in not emphasizing this with sufficient force, the nation is, in Eric Hobsbawm's words, an "invented tradition," or, in Benidict Anderson's phrasing, an "imagined community." One is not physiologically born Italian. Had I not been educated within the national school system, I would probably have spoken Neapolitan all my life, never feeling the need to learn the standard language. The nation, as a product of modernity, is not a natural given but a historical artifact that, in order to survive and reproduce itself, requires an elaborate identity engineering. It needs schooling to standardize language and culture across the territory, mass media to "synchronize" citizens' experiences and make them feel part of a shared collective destiny, and finally the construction of an other against which to define the boundaries of belonging. It is this mechanism that, in times of crisis, transforms otherness into a threat, if not an enemy, bringing the specters of the past back into our present.

Me: feeling completely lost and wondering what I am doing here as #japan follows the global trend toward #xenophobia #hate and #extremism with a new prime minister described as #farright #ultranationalist , nicknamed 'taliban' by the previous PM, known for her #negationism , #crackdown on #journalism , praise for Hitler, and links to #neonazi party leader or #fascist organisation.
Wife: I'm happy it's our first women prime minister, I think we can expect a lot from her.
Mood is all time high 👍👍👍

@pamelat Authoritarian obedience. Nothing new under the sun there.
Clearly you can be both american and bow blindly to the big man on top at the same time.The big problem with #AmericanExceptionalism is that they see #authoritarianism as something that only happens to other people.
But of course the object of #ultranationalist #obedience having a certain configuration of stars & stripes, doesn’t really change basic human psychology..

I am coming back to the subject of the #Australian GO8 universities definition of #antiSemetism because the controversy is an itch I feel compelled to scratch. It follows my reading of an article published by The #Conversation (whose authors’ biases are duly noted in the margin) which highlights the weaknesses of our language when it is used to define and pin down the meaning of a word describing ‘others’. This weakness is mostly evidenced when emotions are at play, and there are few subject matters where emotions rules our head more than when we talk about ‘others’.
As the authors explain, “[the] Controversy has centred on where the definition moves to conflate antizionism and antisemitism. Some scholars and activists believe it mutes legitimate discussion about Israeli state violence towards Palestinians.
The competing Jerusalem Declaration was subsequently endorsed by around 370 leading scholars of Holocaust history, Jewish studies, Antisemitism studies, and Middle East studies. It defines antisemitism as “prejudice, discrimination, hostility or violence against Jews as Jews”. Its authors claim the declaration aims “to protect a space for an open debate about the vexed question of the future of Israel/Palestine”.
I have to say that the latter (The Jerusalem Declaration) is the better and more workable definition in a context where policies and actions of the #UltraNationalist #Netanyahu govt can rightly be condemned and criticised without expressing anti-semitic sentiments. Most, if not all, other definitions would favour one extremist ideological perspective over another.Source: https://theconversation.com/a-new-definition-of-antisemitism-from-universities-australia-is-attracting-criticism-two-historians-explain-why-251252
Just as we know and understand that a fascist State (Russia) misuses the term #fascism as a false flag to legitimise its invasion of a neighbour’s (Ukraine) internationally recognised territory, we should also recognise that the terms anti- #Zionism and anti- #Semitism are conflated by ultra nationalists in the State of Israel and those who support their expansionist and racist ideologies.For the record, I support a two state solution even if I cannot see how we get there given past and present circumstances. Perhaps the toppling of the Netanyahu’s govt is a small step along that road. And my saying this should in no way be construed as expressing anti-semitism.
As this example shows, definitions of Semitism need not exclusively describe the Jewish people which is a recent (late C19th) trend.
Semitism: “Cultural characteristics attribute to the semetic people.” (Source: EOD)
“Semitic people or Semites is a term for an ethnic, cultural or racial group associated with people of the Middle East, including Arabs, Jews, Akkadians, and Phoenicians. The terminology is now largely unused outside the grouping "Semitic languages" in linguistics.” (Source: Wikipedia)This broader meaning only serves to confuses contemporary discussions at large (trust our media outlets to confuse us all further for clearly political reasons).

i find it interesting #Trump doesn't threaten to invade #Cuba
from a purely moron-#American #ultranationalist #imperialist perspective, it works. it works from the "evil #socialism" perspective
it even works from the hardcore #rightWing #CubanAmerican "Bay of Pigs was the greatest tragedy ever" perspective
but Trump goes after #Greenland and #Panama, #Canada and #Mexico instead
interesting that, no?

#JohnKelly, the Trump White House’s longest-serving chief of staff, said that he believed that #DonaldTrump met the definition of a #fascist.

Oct. 22, 2024"In response to a question about whether he thought Mr. Trump was a fascist, Mr. Kelly first read aloud a definition of fascism that he had found online.
"'Well, looking at the definition of fascism: It’s a #FarFight #authoritarian, #ultranationalist political ideology and movement characterized by a #dictatorial leader, centralized #autocracy, #militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy,' he said."

More about what Putin's Night Wolves are all about. Sounds a lot like the other Fascist / NeoNazi movements that have crawled out from under a rock in recent years...
Russia Is Co-opting Angry Young Men
Fight clubs, neo-Nazi soccer hooligans, and motorcycle gangs serve as conduits for the Kremlin’s influence operations in Western countries.
By Michael Carpenter
August 29, 2018"Deep in the forests of Slovakia, former Russian #Spetsnaz commandos trained young men from a right-wing paramilitary group called the Slovak Conscripts. Following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in 2014, some of these freshly-minted paramilitaries went to fight with Russian forces in eastern Ukraine while others stayed at home to agitate against NATO as a 'terrorist organization.'
"On the streets of the French city Marseille, Russian soccer hooligans sporting tattoos with the initials of Russia’s military intelligence service, #GRU, brutally attacked English soccer fans in June 2016, sending dozens of bloodied fans to the hospital. Alexander Shprygin, an #ultranationalist agitator and the head of the All-Russian Union of Supporters (a soccer fan club that he claims was established at the behest of the Russian Federal Security Service, or #FSB), was arrested during the melee and deported from #France.
"In Budapest’s Fiumei Road Cemetery in May 2017, a Russian motorcycle gang carrying giant red flags displaying the Soviet hammer and sickle rode up to a World War II memorial. Somewhat incongruously, the tattooed bikers, accompanied by pinstriped Russian Embassy diplomats, disembarked from their motorcycles to lay red carnations in front of the memorial and then posted a video clip of it online.
It seems almost too strange to be true: fight clubs, #NeoNazi soccer hooligans, and motorcycle gangs serving as conduits for the Kremlin’s influence operations in Western countries. It sounds more like an episode of The Americans with a dash of Mad Max and Fight Club mixed in. Yet this is exactly what is happening across #Europe and #NorthAmerica as Russia’s intelligence services co-opt fringe radicals and angry young men to try to undermine Western democracies from within. And not just in the virtual world, but in real life."Archive:

By Michael Carpenter
August 29, 2018"Deep in the forests of Slovakia, former Russian #Spetsnaz commandos trained young men from a right-wing paramilitary group called the Slovak Conscripts. Following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in 2014, some of these freshly-minted paramilitaries went to fight with Russian forces in eastern Ukraine while others stayed at home to agitate against NATO as a 'terrorist organization.'
"On the streets of the French city Marseille, Russian soccer hooligans sporting tattoos with the initials of Russia’s military intelligence service, #GRU, brutally attacked English soccer fans in June 2016, sending dozens of bloodied fans to the hospital. Alexander Shprygin, an #ultranationalist agitator and the head of the All-Russian Union of Supporters (a soccer fan club that he claims was established at the behest of the Russian Federal Security Service, or #FSB), was arrested during the melee and deported from #France.
"In Budapest’s Fiumei Road Cemetery in May 2017, a Russian motorcycle gang carrying giant red flags displaying the Soviet hammer and sickle rode up to a World War II memorial. Somewhat incongruously, the tattooed bikers, accompanied by pinstriped Russian Embassy diplomats, disembarked from their motorcycles to lay red carnations in front of the memorial and then posted a video clip of it online.
It seems almost too strange to be true: fight clubs, #NeoNazi soccer hooligans, and motorcycle gangs serving as conduits for the Kremlin’s influence operations in Western countries. It sounds more like an episode of The Americans with a dash of Mad Max and Fight Club mixed in. Yet this is exactly what is happening across #Europe and #NorthAmerica as Russia’s intelligence services co-opt fringe radicals and angry young men to try to undermine Western democracies from within. And not just in the virtual world, but in real life."Archive:

More about what Putin's Night Wolves are all about. Sounds a lot like the other Fascist / NeoNazi movements that have crawled out from under a rock in recent years...

I find the wording interesting:
“… seeing it happen live in #Palestine right now…to see the physical displacement of this group of people and the death and destruction and seeing how it is being funded by the American government…”
It’s like the war in #Gaza, which Israel’s #ultranationalist call #Nakba 2.0; managed to make the original Nakba real for younger generations, who might not have even been aware it happened, or that Israel is still illegally occupying #Palestine (according to the partition resolution at the UN, at least).

#ultranationalist settler Chief of Staff, General Herzl Halevi, praises the soldiers who killed 3 Israeli hostages.
"Our fighters came, whom I have not met yet, but I'm sure they are the best because everyone wants to do good, and I'm sure they were confident they are doing the right thing."
Doing the "right thing".... let that sink in.
The English edition of #Haaretz does not include the part saying "I'm sure they are the best".

Zionist Wikipedia, define ... "intifada"
In 2010 Naftali Bennett (then chairman of the Yesha Council) announced the first "Zionist editing course". The Hebrew #Wikipedia in 2023 is a cesspool of #ultranationalist dribble on almost any topic relating to Israel, Jews or Palestinians (which are not a people, just so you know).
What's interesting about many of these articles is how existing articles were altered by introducing ideologically inclined additions, into a text that was perfectly sane, balanced and nonpartisan, mostly.
Zionist Wikipedia [translated from Hebrew]:
Intifada is an Arabic term literally meaning 'uprising' or 'violent rebellion.'
In Israel, an intifada is usually identified as a violent period, characterized by acts of terrorism, of Palestinians against Israel. The intifadas have been among the most important aspects of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict over the past decades.
English Wikipedia:
An intifada (Arabic: انتفاضة intifāḍah) is a rebellion or uprising, or a resistance movement. It is a key concept in contemporary Arabic usage, referring to an uprising against oppression.
