A place for Australians and friends to share news from the other countries. Like all communities here, we discuss topics from the Australian perspective.

If you're looking for a global /c/worldnews instead, search for the many options on federated instances.

Rules
  1. Follow the aussie.zone rules
  2. We are not a generic World News clone. News must be relevant to Australians and our region. Obvious disregard will earn an warning and then a ban if continued. (If an article isn't from an Oceanian news outlet, and it doesn’t mention Australia, then it’s probably off-topic)
  3. Leave seppocentrism at the door. If you don't know what that means, you're not ready to post here yet.
  4. Avoid editorialising headlines. Opinions go in the comments, not the post.

Biden apology to Native American children interrupted by Gaza war protester (www.abc.net.au)

In short:

Joe Biden has formally apologised for the US's role in running abusive Native American boarding schools for more than a century.

Mr Biden was heckled at the event in Arizona over his support for Israel's war in Gaza.

What's next?

Arizona is one of the seven battleground states in US election to be held on November 5, local time.

Mr Biden faced a brief interruption when a pro-Palestinian protester shouted: "How can you apologise for a genocide while committing a genocide in Palestine?"

This has been happening for over a year, it's not sudden just now that there's an election.

Its not like trump is any different.

That's irrelevant. Just like Liberal and Labor here are both systematically supportive of the Zionist regime, just because one might prefer a party over the other doesn't make them less worthy of criticism. No-one's going to say 'omg biden is complicit in genocide, im going to vote for trump instead!', or 'labor leadership have blood on their hands, hopefully the coalition will fix it!' so I'm not sure what Trump has to do with this at all.
