Replying to @MalurusSally and @DaveMilbo
David, I know it’s inconvenient, blur there is no genocide. There is war, which is ugly, brutal and awful. But no genocide

- Replying to @coniinthegarden @MalurusSally and @DaveMilboThat’s rubbish as well. Israel withdrew all its ppl, both civilian and military, from Gaza following the election in 2005. Hamas attacked Israel in 2012, 2014, 2018, 2021 and 2023 as well as random rocket attacks throughout this period.
- Replying to @JohnHol32019188 @MalurusSally and @DaveMilboJohn, that’s also bullshit & you shld know that. Hamas is fully spt by Iran and is their proxy. Gazans are not the Von Trapp family trying to flee to Switzerland. There is no genocide. 8-12% of the IDF are Palestinian volunteers. 2.2m Palestinians live in Israelas free citizens.
- Replying to @abbasnasir59 @MalurusSally and @DaveMilboYes I know I’m right. Thanks for your spt.
- Replying to @boganintel and @AlboMPHow about we focus on freeing the Palestinians from Hamas and Hezbollah first. Frankly that is something worth working towards.
- Replying to @McdowallRose @MalurusSally and @DaveMilboHamas, an international terrorist organisation, is an Army
- Replying to @SocialKamel @coniinthegarden and 2 othersNo genocide - I know it’s inconvenient. It’s war, which is brutal and aweful.
- Replying to @PauleeAnderson @JohnHol32019188 and 2 othersYes Paul, the truth can be so very inconvenient. It’s ok to be angry but don’t be lazy as well. Do the research. How many operating mosques are there in Israel, Paul? 400! I’m in Australia and can work this out! #lessguinnessmoreeffortPaul
- Replying to @DarrenChesterMPSadly the well-being of veterans taking a back seat to miserable political vengefulness by @Barnaby_Joyce. You did a good job @DarrenChesterMP and will be missed.
- Replying to @RonniSalt @MalurusSally and @DaveMilboYeah why not discredit perhaps the only person on these posts who knows what he is talking about. So typical of the narrative. Let’s play the man not the lies. I’m confident time will reveal all.
- Congratulations @ianlangford on your presentation today at the ADM Conference. L400Ph3 is about combined arms. Russian performance in @Ukraine is due to poor or no combined arms effect.
- Replying to @CFMEUJohnSetkaTime to go John to allow real leaders to take the labour movement forward. Sadly it always seems to be about you and not the members. They deserve better
- Replying to @unionsaustraliaWith union membership in decline and unions representing only 14% or workers, what is the value to workers of being union members?
- Replying to @coniinthegarden @SocialKamel and 2 othersThat’s the thing, I have taken the time to examine the whole situation, unlike most ppl who unquestionably accept whatever rubbish they read. It’s not genocide, pure and simple. It’s war, which is awful, but it’s not genocide. Listen to John Spencer at West Point.
