I attended the court this morning (18 May 2026) to support Jeff and Wendy charged under despicable pro-genocide laws that not even the premier can defend.
Here are pro-forma facts according to police:
The defendants were ably represented in court by Abdul Rashidi.
A big thank you to all the support people who have been attending each and every mention of the River-to-the-Sea 26.
Mark is up before the beak tomorrow. Come along and show your support. 8:30 a.m. Roma Street magistrates Court Tuesday 19th of May 2026.

Is this real or is this a nightmare? I can’t believe it is real. Saying a few words can land you in prison and it is not even fuck, shit, cunt or other horrible words, just, “From the River to the Sea” how bizarre.
And I thought that we were living in bizarre times back in the 70’s fighting for the right to demonstrate and march down the street. It seems as if we have gone backwards, not forwards.
Come on people, stop emulating sheep and use the power you have to organize and create a society where people respect one another and help one another for a better world away from these fascists, authoritarian, Zionist monsters who only seem to want to hurt people.
We really need to realize that the people we have been treating as if they were not even human are so much more advanced than we have yet to achieve. I only hope and pray that someday soon, sanity will return and we will right all the wrongs we have perpetrated.
As you prepare your breakfast, think of others
(do not forget the pigeon’s food).
As you conduct your wars, think of others
(do not forget those who seek peace).
As you pay your water bill, think of others
(those who are nursed by clouds).

As you return home, to your home, think of others
(do not forget the people of the camps).
As you sleep and count the stars, think of others
(those who have nowhere to sleep).
As you liberate yourself in metaphor, think of others
(those who have lost the right to speak).
As you think of others far away, think of yourself
(say: “If only I were a candle in the dark”).
