    I find it amusing how the ABC commentators dance around the topic with politicians taking the centrist position: “ok but maybe a little genocide?” 🤔👐

      politicians taking the centrist position

      Labor refused to sign the demand for a ceasefire (resulting in a Greens walkout) because the declaration made absolutely no mention of the October 7 massacre by Hamas.

      “ok but maybe a little genocide?”

      Maybe the Greens thought Oct 7 was too little genocide to mention?

      ABC commentators dance around the topic

      ABC Radio news (but not Website news) reported the Al-Ahli hospital attack as being a direct hit by IDF bombs killing 500 people even after evidence that Hamas were bullshitting was available to all of us who cared to look.
