A five-minute scroll
October 21, 2024
Events in Jabalia over the weekend have still not shocked the world into action; men, women and children rounded up shared with the world in footage taken by IDF soldiers. We are awakened to the knowledge Australia’s US bases are take off points for US planes heading to the Middle East and witness the protest in London that shut down the Tower Bridge. We are reminded of a time when our Prime Minister stood up for Palestine and our King didn’t stand up for Gough Whitlam, who passed away on this day ten years ago. Monday, a five-minute scroll.

In what world can these components come together in one picture? @Wizard__Bisan
A school, a hospital, 5,000 women and children awaiting military orders a year after the genocide began, and a tank from which a terrorist soldier happily takes this picture... In what world can these components come together in one picture?

Protestors shut down London Bridge @MiddleEastEye
Protesters in London shutdown the city's famous Tower Bridge to call on the UK government to stop arming and supporting Israel's genocide in Gaza.
Police tried to break up the protest and were seen apprehending drummers in the crowd. pic.twitter.com/K2YQEykrQT— Middle East Eye (@MiddleEastEye) October 20, 2024
Follow the history of Gaza by map @bothness
Just added a new feature to #Palestine Open Maps #PalOpenMaps. You can now filter the places on the map by date and population group. Move the time slider to see how the territory has been radically transformed over the past 140 years...https://t.co/8l9f2ktGiZ pic.twitter.com/LweI4AVarw

On this day in 2014, the Hon Gough Whitlam AC QC, Australia’s 21st Prime Minister, passed away at age 98 @Whitlam_Inst
On this day in 2014, the Hon Gough Whitlam AC QC, Australia’s 21st Prime Minister, passed away at age 98. We remember him as one of Australia's greatest reforming Prime Ministers, who put Australia on a path to a more equal, open and tolerant future.
Thank you, Gough. pic.twitter.com/AOrijKJUCB— Whitlam Institute (@Whitlam_Inst) October 20, 2024
