On a pepper‑sprayed night in Sydney, Palestinian grief is kettled while Iranian protests are feted as “democratic awakening.” This article traces how Australia’s selective compassion, media framing and think‑tank spin conscript us into the US military‑industrial script for Iran and the region.
Bernard Keane says Albanese is a manager, not a leader. Urban Wronski says the rot runs deeper — into the Farrellised machinery of a captured Clayton’s Labor.
After the Bondi Beach massacre, Australia promised solidarity and reform. Instead, Labor delivered riot shields and silence. This essay traces the descent from empathy to enforcement—and asks whether the soul of Australian democracy can still be reclaimed.
As breastfeeding babies are torn from mothers and the American interior turns into a new Heart of Darkness, the Albanese government remains pathologically mute. It is time to stop playing the submissive junior partner and start acting like a sovereign nation that recalls what humanity looks like.
In a satirical dialogue, Prime Minister Clarke discusses the appointment of Greg Moriarty as Australia’s ambassador in Washington. Clarke defends the promotion as a form of accountability and claims that survival in politics defines success. The conversation highlights the perceived continuity and unchanging culture within the government, despite promises of reform.
Greg Moriarty’s Washington posting exposes a Canberra culture where failure is rewarded and whistleblowers are punished. From Robodebt to Witness K and Labor’s new hate speech laws, this essay tracks how power protects itself while the “fair go” withers.
