  • In short: Australia will resume its funding to the primary aid agency operating inside Gaza, UNRWA.
  • Funding was paused by several nations after Israel claimed several workers had links to the October 7 terror attack by Hamas.
  • What's next? The government has committed additional support to Gaza, including assistance in delivering aid drops.

Yeah for sure. We're a pathetic protectorate to the shameless inheritors of the British empire.

I am an anarchist, I think all states are inevitably going to be cruel. However the USA is uniquely horrible, communist china so far is the garden variety of empire. I would love to see us throw off the yolk of the usa and take our place in Asia Pacific diplomacy. We can all mix and learn, and hopefully find a way forward without world policing foreverwar empire.

It's fucking embarrassing how Anglo centric we are, how we don't learn Mandarin like all our neighbours, and how ignorant we are (media to blame here) of events in our local region.
