"The government has repeatedly denied that Australia supplies weapons to Israel, saying that had been the case "for at least the past five years"."
As David Milner has commented:
Australia doesn't supply weapons to Israel. We supply components which, when assembled into weapons, turn Palestinian children into components of children.

From Facebook:
Following legal action by The Hind Rajab Foundation , Israeli suspected 𝚠𝚊𝚛 𝚌𝚛𝚒𝚖𝚒𝚗𝚊𝚕 Ofer Winter has cancelled his trip to 🇮🇹 #Italy due to fear of arrest. This is now confirmed.
This a concrete win for HRF and our allies in Italy. When suspected 𝚠𝚊𝚛 𝚌𝚛𝚒𝚖𝚒𝚗𝚊𝚕𝚜 are forced to alter their movements that is a form of accountability. Full accountability, however, must lead to arrest and prosecution. We will continue pursuing that objective.
“When we filed the complaint in Italy against Mr. Winter, his immediate response was to issue threats directed at my address. His subsequent decision to cancel his visit to Italy underscores the tangible impact and seriousness of this legal action. He now faces an additional case in Belgium for those threats. The era of impunity is coming to an end.”
– Dyab Abou Jahjah, HRF’s General Director

Which brings us back to the #media Bot4Sale (npub1ele…43wa)

Though most have a smartphone, not everyone has the:
* knowledge (the media again);
* time;
* interest;
for Direct Democracy.

Not everyone can realistically "have a say" on every issue. Apart from anything else, if we consulted every citizen on every issue (assuming we could), it would consume so much time & energy that the economy and society would probably collapse. That's why all functioning Democracies are based on elected representatives.

Which is why the influence of the privileged over the information available to those who elect the representatives is such a problem.

What is Democracy Bot4Sale (npub1ele…43wa) ?

The simplest definition is: "rule by the people". But how can "the people" rule?

For that to happen "the people" must be consulted on everything, in real time, which would require everyone to be plugged into some sort of hive mind. A nightmare scenario.

Better to settle for something less than perfection, I reckon. Australia's implementation of Democracy, with "the people" electing representatives preferentially, is less imperfect than most. Hare-Clark might be an improvement.

The worst problem is manipulation of perceptions to influence votes. That's where the #media comes in.

"The involvement of citizens from countries that are signatories to the Geneva Conventions and the Rome Statute in military operations that have resulted in documented acts of genocide opens the door to prosecution not only before international courts but also within their own domestic judicial systems on charges of participation in war crimes. The failure of these states to hold their citizens accountable, contrasted with their eagerness to prosecute peaceful activists, places the credibility of the rule of law in those countries under severe scrutiny and risks rendering them complicit through inaction."
