  • 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.

Russia, China, and the US are all problems in similar ways, but different scales - in much the same way that the US has a deeply flawed, democracy while China and Russia are plain old autocratic.

The US would absolutely fuck us over for their own benefit (again), but what's in their best interests is generally much more in line with our best interests than China or Russia.

I work in cybersecurity, and we track state sponsored threat actors (mostly, but far from exclusively China and Russia) - people suddenly rush to change the subject when I ask why we don't track US threat actors.
