Pro-Jewish lobby ousted ABC journalist, prompting staff to call for industrial action

Posted by: John Phoenix Antoinette Lattouf, a former ABC journalist A pro-'Israel' lobby group has pushed for the ouster of an Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) journalist, prompting the news agency's staff to call for a strike. Award-winning Lebanese-Australian journalist Anotinette Lattouf was fired from ABC last month for sharing on Instagram a report about the Israeli regime forces' genocidal attack on the Palestinians trapped in the besieged Gaza Strip. “The ABC sacked broadcaster Antoinette Lattouf after a high-level and coordinated letter-writing campaign from pro-Israel lobbyists that directly targeted the corporation’s chair, Ita Buttrose, and managing director David Anderson,” daily Sydney Morning Herald found in an investigative report which includes “do...

An Australian Referendum: “Legalized Lawlessness”

BY JULIE WARK Photograph Source: Kgbo – CC BY-SA 4.0 Yes, it happened in this year of 2023, seventy-five years after the Universal Declaration of Human Rights was adopted by the United Nations General Assembly. A referendum, which should never have been held, was held. The basic rights of Australia’s First People, about 3.8% of the population, were put to a national vote in a referendum where the non-Aboriginal 63+% would effectively decide whether they could have a “Voice”, a “Voice to Parliament” that would be protected by the Constitution and allow Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people to be more involved in political decision-making by advising the government on policies and projects that affect their communities. Unlike other countries with similar settler colon...

Austrian chancellor makes cash pledge

The right to use cash for payments should be enshrined in the Austrian constitution, Chancellor Karl Nehammer believes © Getty Images / Creativ Studio Heinemann The ability to use cash for payments instead of banking cards or digital currencies should become a constitutional right in Austria, Chancellor Karl Nehammer has said. The chancellor argued cash remains an extremely popular means of payment in Austria, and the country’s people should have a “right to cash.” “Pocket money for the child. The rainy day reserve at home. The money in the wallet just in case. In Austria alone, €47 billion is withdrawn from ATMs every year, and on average, every Austrian carries €102 in cash. Cash plays an important role in our everyday lives,” Nehammer said in a stat...

THE CIA COUP AGAINST ‘THE MOST LOYAL ALLY’ IS HISTORY’S WARNING IN 2020

The Australian High Court has ruled that correspondence between the Queen and the Governor-General of Australia, her viceroy in the former British colony, is no longer "personal" and the property of Buckingham Palace. Why does this matter? Secret letters written in 1975 by the Queen and her man in Canberra, Sir John Kerr, can now be released by the National Archives - if the Australian establishment allows it. On November 11, 1975, Kerr infamously sacked the reformist government of prime minister Gough Whitlam, and delivered Australia into the hands of the United States. Today, Australia is a vassal state bar none: its politics, intelligence agencies, military and much of its media are integrated into Washington's "sphere of dominance" and war plans. In Donald Trump's current pr...

Murdoch propaganda pushes Australia: double military budget to fight China

The time to start resisting is now. Caitlin Johnstone Subscribe to our channel The Australian people are being groomed into participating in the USA’s war drive against China. The cost to themselves is likely to be catastrophic. The following article is reproduced from Caitlin Johnstone’s blog, with thanks. ***** In the latest escalation in Australia’s increasingly forceful campaign to manufacture consent for war with China, the Murdoch-owned Sky News Australia has aired a jaw-droppingly propagandistic hour-long special which advocates a dramatic increase in the nation’s military spending. Australians are uniquely vulnerable to propaganda because our nation has the most concentrated media ownership in the western world, th...
