Islamo-phobia or Islamist-phobia
Not a day passes without further outrageous anti-Semitic acts in one of Australia's state capitals. Yet in calling out these acts as 'unacceptable', un-Australian, and other cliches, our Labor politicians feel it necessary to mention Islamophobia. Implying without any justification that Islamophobia is somehow an equivalent problem to anti-Semitism. Nothing could be further from the truth. The most recent act against any Muslim was some 11 months ago. The outright vilification of Jews started on Oct 9 '23, in front of Sydney's Opera House, and has been a weekly event at incessant demonstrations.
So cut it out Ed Husic! Cut it out Richard Marles! Cut it out Chris Bowen! You need to acknowledge that the rise in anti-Semitism in Australia has been caused by many Islamist constituents of your own electorates.
The very people encouraging you to remember 'Islamaphobia' are the ones marching in the streets screaming anti-Semitic slogans. It is these wild mob of Islamists who are the drivers of anti-Semitism and indeed feed a real Islamist-phobia in our societies.
It will only stop once the government takes decisive action. I don't expect it to happen under this Labor government. Hopefully, they only have a few more months in office.
Weaponization of International Law
Over the past four years under the Biden administration, we have seen the blatant weaponisation of many of the US's institutions against perceived Biden's Republican enemies. Now we are witnessing the weaponisation of UN institutions against perceived enemies. Israel is the most frequent victim, but the US is not spared. The recent article by Robert Williams titled "ICC Arrest Warrants and the Unacceptable Weaponization of International Law exposes the personal issues that led ICC Chief Prosecutor Karim Khan to issue the warrants, the significant legal problems with the warrants, and the role of the international community in preventing such overreach from succeeding. Well worth a read.
United Nations violates its own charter
An incisive article in J-Wire highlights the UN's inconsistent treatment of Israel over the decades. Most notably in its most recent vote calling for an end to the occupation of the West Bank and East Jerusalem. This is in 'flagrant' violation of Article 80 of the United Nations Charter which committed to Israel the land on the West Bank of the Jordan river, ie Israel and Judea and Samaria.
It seems UN commitments are rather fluid, you can commit one day and de-commit on another.

Collapse of Syria provides new opportunities for the West
The rapid collapse of the Assad regime has changed the strategic balance with a weakened Russia and Iran. This is a great opportunity to remove the threats posed by Iran and its puppets.
Here is an interesting discussion of the strategic factors.
