“Saying that “all Zionists are terrorists” is an understatement”

🇦🇺🇵🇸A Palestinian-Australian man has been criminally charged for saying "all Zionists are terrorists" at a political rally. He could do two months in prison. Civil rights are being stomped out throughout the western world to protect Israeli interests. Zionism is a threat to us all.

Wake in Fright by Kenneth Cook, 2012

Wake in Fright tells the tale of John Grant's journey into an alcoholic, sexual and spiritual nightmare. It is the original and the greatest outback horror story. Bundanyabba and its citizens will forever haunt its readers. This edition includes an introduction by Peter Temple and an afterword by David Stratton. Wake in Fright was made into a film in 1971, arguably the greatest film ever made in Australia.

It starred Donald Pleasence, Chips Rafferty, and Jack Thompson in his first screen role. Lost for many years, the restored film was re-released to acclaim in 2009. Kenneth Cook was born in Sydney in 1929. Wake in Fright was published in 1961 to high praise in New York and London, and launched Cook's writing career. Cook wrote twenty-one books in all, along with screenplays and scripts for radio and TV. Peter Temple is one of Australia's finest writers. His novel Truth won the 2010 Miles Franklin Award and the Victorian Premier's Literary Award. Temple has written nine novels and has been published in more than twenty countries. David Stratton is co-presenter of At the Movies on ABC television and film critic for the Australian. He has also served as a President of the International Critics Jury for the Cannes and Venice Film Festivals, written three books and is currently lecturing in Film History at the University of Sydney. textclassics.com.au 'It might be fifty years since the novel appeared yet it retains its freshness, its narrative still compels, and its bleak vision still disquiets...Cook can make us feel the heat, see the endless horizon, hear the sad singing on a little train as it traverses the monotonous plain.' Peter Temple, from the Introduction 'Wake in Fright deserves its status as a modern classic. Cook's prose is masterful and the story is gripping from the first page to the last.' M. J. Hyland 'A classic novel which became a classic film.

saw this book in the library and quite regardless of the value (or lack thereof) of the historical research in it, it made me wonder what mindset one must have to dedicate themselves to writing a book *series* to argue that "the genocide perpetrated by my ancestors in the stolen and unceded country I now live in was less violent than other genocides" (and also what drives a librarian to reserve precious shelve space for such an endeavour). @bookstodon #Australia #Straya

"The Fabrication of Aboriginal History" by Keith Windschutte, billed on its cover page as "volume one - Van Diemen's Land 1803-1847"
book blurb, including the sentence: "The author finds the British colonization of the Australia was the least violent of all Europes encounters with the New World."

I shall complain a little bit on a stance from EFF and how I think they should be pushing harder. Not so long ago Australia decided to ban any platform where users can upload things, to anybody who is younger than 16 years. This is an ageist, paternalistic atrocity and has to be fought with viciousness. Yet EFF seem to only understand the ...
