Mightier than the saw - Australian Geographic

Sawfish are among the world’s most unusual marine creatures. Now, Australian researchers are using “trophies” to save these threatened species.

Horrifying. No wonder Israel continues to block reporters entry to Gaza & has been clearly targeting Palestinian journos inside. The horrors to uncover! "A mass grave with nearly 300 bodies has been uncovered at a hospital in the Gaza city of Khan Younis" edition.cnn.com/2024/04/22/m…

Finally a powerful coverage of the Israeli onslaught by @CNN. Think about how many of the 30K+ Palestinians killed could have been saved, had this been the standard of coverage by western media in the past five months.

It’s hard to comprehend the deaths of 12,800 children. We put up figures of children on our studio walls - one for each child killed in Gaza during the war. They’re dying from airstrikes and now malnutrition and dehydration. These are some of their stories.

An Israeli tank fired on a house sheltering MSF colleagues and their families. "Targeting a building knowing it is full of humanitarian workers and their families is unconscionable." The attack killed the daughter-in-law and wife of an MSF staff member.

Yep, total scam. And everyone knows it, except a handful of seemingly credulous politicians. Unfortunately that includes Australia’s resources, energy and environment ministers. #auspol mining.com/web/carbon-captur…

In the face of 10,000 dead Gazan children, the idea @SenatorWong that you can now just ask Israel to “exercise special care” in #Rafah is absolutely shameful & pathetic. Take a concrete step. Do something! We are sick of hollow words by the @AlboMP government on #Gaza.
Senator Penny Wong
@SenatorWong12 Feb 2024
153 countries, including Australia, have already called for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire. Now many of Israel’s friends are expressing deep concerns about reports of an Israeli military operation in Rafah. This would have devastating consequences for civilians.

The Australian gov must urgently speak out & make it crystal clear to Israel an attack on Rafah is not acceptable under any circumstance 1.5 million civilians are in Rafah seeking protection All UN agencies, MSF, HRW, Amnesty warn this would be catastrophic @AlboMP @SenatorWong
Prime Minister of Israel
@IsraeliPM9 Feb 2024
The Prime Minister's Office: It is impossible to achieve the goal of the war of eliminating Hamas by leaving four Hamas battalions in Rafah. On the contrary, it is clear that intense activity in Rafah requires that civilians evacuate the areas of combat.

We released new analysis today that shows Woodside’s monstrous Burrup Hub gas project could release 13 times Australia’s annual carbon emissions. This is Australia’s most dangerous project for climate & biodiversity. It should never be approved. via @GuardianAus

Thank you @MichaelWestBiz. Good to have further evidence of the routine harassment and intimidation deployed by @LeiblerMark & Co. Laughable for him to think they “undoubtedly moderated” my “behaviour.” My record on truth telling speaks for itself - I refused to be intimidated.
