AFL Matches Cancelled After Players Mistakenly Snort Up Boundary Lines
Why did ABC’s Four Corners undermine the war crimes David McBride helped to expose? And why those with ultimate responsibility – the Army’s top echelon – continuing to avoid scrutiny and responsibility for the war crimes in Afghanistan?
Has Four Corners done the Government’s dirty work in the David McBride prosecution?
Arguably the largest music festival in Australia this side of the Tamworth Country Festival in January, the abrupt cancellation sends ominous signals about the state of the Australian live music industry. Are the insurance premiums too steep? Are corporate backers getting too greedy for returns?
Splendour cancellation leaves dark cloud over live music industry

Israel continues to seize Palestinian land ‘on an annual basis’
Abdullah al-Arian, a researcher at Georgetown University, says land theft has been “part and parcel of the Israeli state going back to its establishment in 1948”.
“Very soon after, the Israeli state established certain laws that permitted them, under a massive wide umbrella of security concerns, to be able to seize any land at any point, specifically from Palestinian residents and citizens,” he said, talking to Al Jazeera on Land Day commemorated by Palestinians and Arab citizens of Israel.
He said the first Land Day was observed in 1976 and focused on a specific incident in which a parcel of land was taken from Palestinians who happened to be citizens of the state of Israel.
“They had no rights whatsoever to challenge the theft of their land, and since then, we have been seeing this marked on an annual basis,” al-Arian said. “We continue to witness this happening, not only 40 or 50 years ago, but today.”
What is Land Day?
Today is Land Day in Palestine, a recurring commemoration day for Arab citizens of Israel and Palestinians of the events of March 30, 1976 in Israel.
Land Day demonstrations date back to that day when Israeli forces killed six unarmed Palestinians during demonstrations against Israel’s expropriation of large tracts of Palestinian-owned land.
The incident took place as a general strike, and marches were organised in various Arab towns in Israel in response to the announcement by the Israeli government to confiscate the swaths of land in question for state purposes.
Palestinians gather every year in different parts of the Palestinian territory and Israel to mark Land Day as an annual commemoration demonstrating their struggle against the Israeli occupation.
Hannibal Directive which Israel claims isn't practiced anymore
" Israeli Army Commander admits to implementing the Hannibal Directive. They deliberately tried to kill captured Israelis because “it’s better to stop the kidnapping” than leave Israelis alive in the hands of Hamas. Hamas wants the hostages alive. Israel wants them dead."
