A five-minute scroll
Nov 20, 2024
Up to 50,000 Māori mobilised and walked to the New Zealand Parliament in Wellington to to protest the treaty principles bill, which Amnesty International states should never have been introduced. Bob Carr states what he told us last week about AUKUS is now confirmed. A member of Knesset is forcibly removed for speaking out against the horror in Gaza. At the UN the Palestine member speaks to Gaza, the crossroad that will determine where humanity will go. We witness patients removed from a hospital by the IDF as hostages. Jeffrey Sachs speaking to the history of the war in Ukraine heralded as a history lesson. A five-minute scroll.

Bob Carr: what I said about AUKUS confirmed
@bobjcarr
What I said on AUKUS last week. Now confirmed by the head of sub production. US is not meeting own sub needs. It’s inconceivable they will give us any. Instead they will base their subs here. Leaving us with no sovereign submarine capacity https://t.co/KSJcG5bdOQ

Why is ABC news using the term “alleged force displacement’ when referring to North Gaza?
@PeterCronau
Why is @ABCnews using on air about northern Gaza, the phrase “alleged forced displacement”?
