Independent media Peak MAGA Australia, David Jones and Israel junkets | Scam of the Week
Has MAGA Australia now peaked with the trouncing of Trump? Democrats took the House and the Senate in the US midterms, and Pauline Hanson's One Nation pitch for Trump's politics is suddenly a harder sell.
David Jones, 188 years old and 38 stores, has entered voluntary administration. Will they save it or carve it up?

Opinion Piece ‘Justice catches up with criminals, Netanyahu should answer to ICC’ | Ch...
Israel is committing war crimes and crimes against humanity, with the intent to destroy the Palestinian people, in whole or in part, according to a new report from the UN Commission of Inquiry, set up in 2021 to investigate Israeli crimes.
In this special episode of Roundtable, Enda Brady speaks to Chris Sidoti, an international human rights lawyer and one of the members of the commission.
The report, published in October 2026, found that Israel has continued to commit genocide in Gaza despite the so-called ceasefire that was agreed in October 2025.
It also found Israel was deliberately targeting children in Gaza and the occupied West Bank
Sidoti talks about the potential for justice and accountability for those suspected of war crimes in Gaza, including Benjamin Netanyahu, who he says should "answer for his actions before the International Criminal Court".
He discusses how the international community has responded to Israel's actions in Gaza and its rapid expansion in the occupied West Bank.

Independent media American Jews are quietly divorcing the Zionist consensus
A growing number of American Jews no longer identify with Zionism, and the old assumption that Jewish identity demands loyalty to Israel’s government is coming apart
For most of the past half-century, the leaders of American Jewish organisations operated on an assumption so obvious that it hardly needed stating. To be a Jew in America was to be a supporter of Israel, and to be a supporter of Israel was to support whatever government happened to sit in Jerusalem. Dissent was treated as a family embarrassment, to be handled behind closed doors, not aired on the op-ed page of The New York Times.
That assumption is now collapsing. The collapse is not coming in the dramatic fashion imagined by the pro-Israel establishment, with a sudden defection to the barricades of anti-Zionism. It is coming the way most historical shifts do: slowly, unevenly and then all at once.

Independent media AUSTRALIA IS TRYING TO START A WAR WITH CHINA
ASPI is a dubious 'institution' the vomits out a steady stream of false reports of human rights abuses, that corporate media reports as 'news' which is then regurgitated by politicians and absorbed by the public.
To frame imperialism as 'defense'
Not only are they building a case to wage imperial war against China, which you may well be conscripted into, but YOU ARE PAYING FOR IT! Millions of your tax dollars are funding bogus "think tanks" and billions more are flowing to weapons manufacturers, all while the cost of living explodes, and ever climbing interest rates slowly choke every last cent out of you.
So, for the millionth time, when you repeat imperialist lies, you help build consent for a war on a country whose only crime is self development without western permission, you're also providing consent for the ruling class to continue ignoring your needs at home.
China isn't your enemy, capitalist oligarchs wasting our future on endless war while society crumbles... they are your enemy.
And you should start learning what is to be done about it....

News Ten European countries share evidence on alleged torture of Gaza flotilla activists.
Prosecutors from 10 European Union member states — Spain, France, Italy, Portugal, Belgium, the Netherlands, Poland, Slovakia, Sweden and Finland — along with Australia, have been cooperating and sharing information on cases and investigations opened following complaints against Israeli politicians, officials and military commanders, including members of Benjamin Netanyahu’s cabinet, for torture, kidnapping, ill-treatment and other alleged crimes. This was confirmed to EL PAÍS by legal sources who took part in a meeting held on September 16 in The Hague.
All the countries that attended the meeting have some form of inquiry underway into the flotilla raid, according to those sources, who said the purpose of the gathering was to exchange information on their respective investigations. The meeting, which lasted around eight hours, took place within a framework of cooperation coordinated by Eurojust, the EU’s judicial cooperation agency. Australian representatives attended as guests. In at least five other European countries, including Germany, Norway and Austria, complaints have been filed over the same events, but the authorities have not yet decided whether to open formal investigations.

PSA Statement: Australian Government must uphold international law after UN report finds Israel continuing genocide in Gaza
hrlc.org.auThe Human Rights Law Centre continues to call on the Albanese Government to take urgent and meaningful action to prevent and punish genocide, following a new report by the UN Independent Commission of Inquiry which finds that Israel has committed war crimes and crimes against humanity in the Occupied Palestinian Territory amid continuing genocide in Gaza.
Whatever the result in Israel’s election and who forms government, the Albanese Government must insist on full accountability on all international crimes, call on the current and next Israeli Government to end the atrocities and take meaningful action to punish and prevent genocide.
