Bondi’s Blood, Herzog’s Shield: How Australia’s Grief was Hijacked for Geopolitics

· 3 Comments ·

The Bondi massacre exposed more than a failure of gun laws. It revealed a political class willing to fold a community’s grief into a diplomatic script—inviting a leader accused of incitement to genocide to stand as the symbol of Australia’s solidarity. This is the story of how sorrow was weaponised, dissent was crushed, and the rule of law was suspended in the name of comfort.

Boxed in Like Tulloch

We’re into the straight and Australia pounds against the rails, all muscle memory and destiny, everybody’s favourite, yet going nowhere. Boxed in like Tulloch.

Picture Tony Abbott at the IPA lectern, Bondi’s blood barely dry, branding the killings “an attack on all Australians.” Before we accept the performance, it’s worth examining the script – and the stagehands. Abbott is not a former PM quietly offering reflection. He is a paid director of Fox Corporation, Rupert Murdoch’s US outrage sausage-machine, earning well over AU$500,000 a year.
