  • Yeh, next to working class suburbs and the Blue Mts National Park. There were other choices (from memory). Kingsford Smith Airport (Sydney Internaitional airport) flightpaths don't operate 24/7. The curfew is from 11pm to 6am.

    Can you imagine what it would be like to have the noise of planes every hour of every day? No curfew. Noise insulation grants will be available for some residents but nevertheless, it will result in health problems in vulnerable populations and will spoil the tranquil beauty of the BM Nat Park

  • Many people living in the densely-populated areas around the airport and in the Blue Mountains would not be having a fun-run. They are going to be subjected to overhead noise 24/7. That is nothing fun or worth celebrating.

  • Had a similar action happened at a Jewish event, the assailant would have been immediately arrested. Our authorities give lip-service to community cohesion but on the ground some communities 'are more equal than others'. We also need to call out how AI is being used to stir up social conflict wherever we see it.

  • No matter what euphemism is given to our action in the Gulf, we are taking sides. We're taking the side of those who attacked and decapitated a sovereign nation unlawfully. Our actions will result in deaths, directly or indirectly, of many unarmed civilians because we are freeing up US/Israel aircraft to keep carpet bombing Iran. Same as sending F35 parts to Israel to be used on civilian Palestinians.

    We are now (unofficially) taking part in the Middle East War which some are already calling the start of WW3. Australian government, you are making this nation a future target without our consent.

  • We have US operations and facilities in the Northern Territory. If Iranian intelligence showed that these were being used to aid the American assault on Iran in any way, they'd have every right to destroy them. We could be a legitimate target. If during the early days of this despicable war we're already thinking of aiding Arab gulf states ruled by dictator families put there by the US, we are already active in this conflict, not just there for defensive purposes (according to the lame explanation we are being given by our government).

    I believe many Australians would not support a draft but others would, PLUS we would be blasted by war propaganda (which we already are). I'd like to see all those older men who are so pro-war go and enlist and leave our young people alone.
