  Well done Khawaja, and kudos to The Guardian for the reporting on it. By comparison, the ABC article:

  • Doesn’t mention Israel’s atrocities (except when directly quoting Khawaja)
  • Doesn’t explain why Khawaja was asked to give the interview
  • Closes on the only-relevant-for-context bit showing the ICC’s censorship of his humanitarian views in the past, and in so doing sort of implies this is the most important final word on the subject (i.e., that opposing Israel is wrong)
  • Doesn’t explain why SEN are the only ones there he can talk to

    The ABC are an absolute joke these days, which is an extremely sad and dangerous place for the Australian public to be in (see also the judgement on Antoinette Lattouf)
