Northern Territory water plan condemned as ‘blatant and shameless’ attack on nature
"Move to scrap legal requirement to set aside water for environment is ‘extreme even for the NT CLP government’, green group says"
"The Northern Territory government has been accused of making a “blatant and shameless” attack on nature by planning to delete a legal requirement that water must be allocated to the environment.
In what has been described as the latest in a series of attacks on the environment by the NT’s Country Liberal party, the Finocchiaro government plans to change water rules that govern how much ground and surface water industry can take.
It comes as the government plans a major expansion of fracking, datacentres and agricultural development."

#UNICEF: “This year has been the deadliest year on record for children in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, with conflict-related violence reaching unprecedented levels.
“83 children have been killed in the past twelve weeks – more than double the number of children killed in all of 2022, amid increased military and law enforcement operations. More than 576 have been injured and others have reportedly been detained. Furthermore, the West Bank has been heavily affected by movement and access restrictions."

“Israeli forces arrested her for the fifth time in the early hours of December 26, 2023, the day before she was due to publicly present a study on Israel’s abuses against Palestinian prisoners during the genocide in Gaza. Thirteen months of administrative detention followed. She spent the last six in total isolation, in a cell two and a half meters by one, without a window or ventilation. Prison authorities moved her there days after Israel’s national security minister, Itamar Ben-Gvir, visited Damon Prison.
When she asked why, a guard replied: “You will not know the reason for your isolation, nor how long it will last.” She walked out on January 19, 2025, in the first prisoner exchange of the ceasefire.“

Israel imprisoned Khalida Jarrar, a historic leader of the Palestinian left, five times, almost always without charge or trial.
She tells Jacobin about how women prisoners copied a library by hand and how Israeli censors never let in Antonio Gramsci. https://jacobin.com/2026/10/jarrar-palestine-prison-education-elections

AI has been embedded across the immigration system and at UK borders in near total secrecy.
We expose how AI is shaped by and reinforces the hostile environment behind a smokescreen of 'national security'.

Super-rich get ‘double dividend’ from causes and costs of climate crisis
"The world’s wealthiest people are not just profiting from the polluting causes of climate breakdown, they are also increasingly cashing in on the catastrophic consequences, according to a study by Oxfam.
The global equality organisation has found that the richest 0.1% of the world’s population are heavily invested in disaster preparedness, recovery and reconstruction – a market that is projected to grow from $70bn to $92bn a year by 2029.
This gives the planet’s wealthiest and most powerful people a “double dividend” from the climate crisis and, more alarmingly, an incentive to delay or disrupt action to solve the problem, the NGO says."

RE: https://mastodon.ar.al/@aral/117495606576800262
We can’t fight these fires one by one (of course we must right now). The long term solution:
Strip the @EUCommission@ec.social-network.europa.eu of its legislative power and give it to the EU Parliament where it belongs. No idea how you’d even start that process, though. If this overlaps your area of expertise, please feel free to pipe up or to take the initiative (with no illusions that this will happen overnight).
(The EU Parliament is currently a toy parliament. The only parliament in the world that cannot legislate.)

On Wednesday, EU Member States approved a change to the GDPR that would put the profit-making interests of OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta and SpaceX over European's fundamental right to data protection. According to the approved text, processing personal data “in the context of AI” should automatically be lawful. In particular, Big Tech would be able to use all personal data collected over the past decades with virtually no restrictions, as long as this happens “in the context” of AI. Schrems: “Under the agreed text, the profits of AI companies would typically trump European’s fundamental right to privacy. This is nothing but a digital expropriation of Europeans.”

In allowing coal expansion in the Hunter, Chris Minns is pouring fuel on the climate fire. His decision will come back to hurt us all
"As someone who lost their home in the black summer bushfires, I was buoyed by the high court finding in favour of a small community group in the Hunter Valley earlier this month.
Led by two retired science teachers, Wendy Wales and Tony Lonergan, the Denman Aberdeen Muswellbrook Scone Healthy Environment Group took on a massive coal corporation and won. As a fellow schoolteacher, I felt a particular sense of pride seeing these ordinary Australians act on their care for their community and future generations.
In their four-year fight against MACH Energy’s Mount Pleasant coalmine in Muswellbrook, they argued it is no longer OK for big mining corporations to dig up coal and bank piles of cash while pretending the climate pollution from burning that coal is someone else’s problem.
The high court agreed that conditions aimed at reducing the climate pollution from burning Australian coal overseas had not been properly considered when the rosily named “Mount Pleasant Optimisation Project” received New South Wales approval.
Mining interests quickly responded to the high court’s decision, saying it was a threat to investment. Well, of course it is. But only to the wrong kind of investment – the kind that brings us all more frequent, worse and very costly climate-driven disasters.
Now, less than two weeks later, the NSW premier, Chris Minns, has announced plans to introduce special legislation that will allow the very same coal company to increase production at Mount Pleasant by nearly a third, bypassing the state’s usual planning approval process and scrutiny by the courts.
Minns says this is necessary to 'protect 400 jobs'. But the mine already has approval to operate until 2032. What message does it send when ordinary Australians fight for years to uphold the law, win in the highest court in the land and then watch our government step in to change the rules?"

Last December in Ayalon prison, “he was beaten on several occasions,” said Dotan, including an incident where guards swore at him while Barghouti was “dragged on the floor naked in front of other #prisoners”.
....
“If this is how they allow themselves to treat high-profile prisoners like Barghouti, imagine what they do to detainees who don’t have the same profile,” she said, describing the overall level of abuse as “unprecedented”.
...
The Israeli chapter of Physicians for #HumanRights detailed at least 10 deaths in detention since October, including five where their doctors attended the autopsies.
...
“Sometimes the guards would throw tear gas inside the cells, or fire rubber bullets at close range. I saw people being dragged along the floor by their handcuffs and beaten.”
...
“There are multiple reports of extreme torture and ill treatment. This is the Israeli #Guantánamo, with all of the issues connected to forced disappearances.”
Israeli abuse of jailed #Palestinian leader Marwan Barghouti ‘amounts to torture’
