Banned, censored, and branded a “political extremist”, US comedian Shayne Smith is turning his surreal clash with Australia’s bureaucracy into a new stand-up special: "How to Get Banned from Australia".

When Muslims kill Muslims in Sudan, it’s genocide. But when Muslims kill Christians in Nigeria — 7,000 this year at the rate of 35 murders a day — it’s apparently “complex”.

While for the past twelve months, much of the West has been objecting to the so-called ‘genocide’ occurring in Gaza, something more sinister has been happening in Nigeria. Since 2009, tens of thousands of Christians have been killed by Islamic terrorists.

The past weekend saw a series of protests crop up around the United States. Most protestors — notably those participating in “No Kings” events — targeted President Donald Trump and his administration, but other conservatives and Christians also became the centre of attention.

Hamas finally released the last 20 living hostages it captured on October 7, resolving for Israel the long-sustained dissonance of negotiating lopsided hostage releases with its genocidal foe. The moment provides Israel with great cause for rejoicing, but it also brings the Israeli government to a difficult, untrodden fork in the road.

The Islamophobia report is being sold as a roadmap to a more harmonious Australia when in reality, it seems like a Trojan horse: a vast catalogue of demands that, if accepted, would privilege one group’s sensitivities, weaken our defences against extremism, and embed grievance politics into the heart of government.

Let's pray that a lasting peace breaks out in the Middle East, something not guaranteed despite the incredible diplomatic achievements of the past days. For Australia, let's pray and work for social cohesion, as most of us have had enough of this foreign conflict dominating our public discourse.

Yesterday proved there is no genocide in Gaza. There never was. All Hamas ever had to do in order to end the suffering of the Palestinian people was to release the hostages.

An Economist/YouGov survey quizzed Americans on political violence, reporting that 20% of voters who identify as liberal believe that political violence can be “justified”, compared to only 7% of self-described moderates and conservatives.

For the last 15 years, the mountainous area of Cameroon’s Far North region has been a place of violence and bloodshed for Christians. Each night comes with fear of attacks from the Islamic extremist group Boko Haram.

I predict the plan by the Albanese Government's Special Envoy to Combat Islamophobia will be a roadmap for more hate speech laws, more surveillance, more control, and more ways to punish Aussies for saying something that offends someone else's delicate religious sensitivities.

Israel's military strike on Hamas leaders in Doha, Qatar, on 9 September 2025, can be justified by understanding the needs of national security, self-defence, and the broader context of ongoing conflict.

Afana is not an outlier. He was not a rogue extremist. He was the fruit of a culture that teaches children that stabbing a Jew is worth more than studying for a degree. In the almost two years since that horrific attack on Israel, many have forgotten the evil deeds of that day. 

The alignment between Hamas’s ideology and the themes of "Mein Kampf" provides a chilling context for the brutality witnessed during the October 7, 2023, attacks on Israel.

We woke up yesterday morning to shocking images of a Gazan hospital bombed by the Israel military. We are told the strike killed 20 people, including journalists. What isn’t apparent, unless you read extensively, is that the IDF were targeting a surveillance camera Hamas had positioned on the hospital’s roof.

If you want to see an end to this conflict, pressure Hamas instead of Israel and set the Palestinian people free. Recognising a Palestinian state unilaterally is rewarding terrorism, playing into the hands of Hamas, and has caused them to withdraw from any negotiations.

Australia has turned its back on Israel by deciding to recognise Palestine, which is committed to the destruction of Israel and the genocide or removal of its Jews.

Hamas thinks so much of Anthony Albanese that they are encouraging other world leaders to be more like him. Remember, this is the same Hamas that is on Australia’s official list of terrorist organisations.

Overwhelmingly, the mainstream media is denying that aid and food are being stolen, whether by Hamas, armed gangs, or with the collusion of the corrupt UN. But this is indeed happening.

As Melbourne reels from attacks on synagogues and Israeli-owned businesses, a rare coalition of faith communities gathered peacefully over the weekend to reclaim the moral ground in a nation struggling against rising terror and intimidation.
