Apple Australia has gone silent for ten days on questions about Israeli-designed chips in the iPhone 17. The House of Representatives voted down the Red Lines bill to restrict financing of the Gaza genocide, days before the US approved a record $4 billion bomb shipment to Israel. Pauline Hanson told media that Aboriginal civilisation was "primitive." Live on Seven's Sunrise, Senator Jane Hume called new home lending a "terrible failure" of Labor policy, moments before the show's own data showed dwelling finance at record highs.

The Zionist Federation of Australia's own annual report says it depends on the World Zionist Organization and Keren Hayesod for most of its revenue. Its chief executive, Alon Cassuto, spent two years suing journalist Mary Kostakidis over two tweets, then withdrew days before trial and claimed victory. Her lawyers say he achieved nothing. The same organisations fund Arnold Bloch Leibler's legal work, tax-deductible in Australia, and channel money through the Jewish National Fund to Keren Hayesod, the IDF and West Bank settlements.

Twenty-five Australian government agencies now use Palantir, the CIA-linked data company that has held contracts here since 2013. Cellebrite clones phones at airports and police stops. Switzerland rejected Palantir nine times in seven years, France dropped it for a domestic alternative in June, Spain blacklisted it in July, and a UK parliamentary committee told the NHS to get out of a £330 million contract. Australia has held no inquiry. Michael West argues it is time for one.

Greens senator Mehreen Faruqi moves to deny deductible gift recipient status to any organisation helping finance an illegal occupation. Labor and the Coalition both refuse to back it. She cites Michael West Media reporting on the Chai Charitable Foundation, which claimed more than $19m in tax-deductible donations in 2025, and United Israel Appeal Australia, which reported $50m in revenue in 2024. Asked whether the ACNC is investigating either, the minister says the regulator is independent and confirms its external conduct standards do not extend to international law.

Richard Marles and US War Secretary Pete Hegseth have agreed to accelerate force posture initiatives at Australian bases, on top of the $368 billion committed to AUKUS submarines that have not arrived. Forty former IDF soldiers and associates ran the Sydney Marathon under police escort in the same week Bassem Youssef's visa was blocked. And Palantir is now inside 25 Australian government agencies, in through the Fraud Fusion Taskforce and into the NDIS, alongside Israeli phone-cloning firm Cellebrite.

Cookers are just normal people. Michael West argues the cooker versus leftist fight is identity politics sold to Australians by political parties and vested interests, with Pauline Hanson running as an advertising phenomenon backed by paid influencers and News Corp, and comedian Dave Hughes turned voice of the right, calling Anthony Albanese a socialist and the neoliberal Labor Party far left. Australians are told to punch horizontally at each other while the boot comes down vertically.

The US bombed Iran again this morning and Iran hit back at US assets across the Middle East. The war never ended, it just stopped being called one. Michael West looks at what the fighting has done to prices at home: rice up 57 per cent, wheat up 51, cotton up 41, rubber up 32, soybeans up 24, wool up 21, palm oil up 20. Oil sits underneath all of it, because transport costs feed into everything else we buy. The winners are the ones who can bury a price rise inside a commodity resale. In Australia that means the oil and gas exporters, who pay little tax, less again in royalties, and nothing at all on offshore production. The argument we're offered instead is Pauline versus Albo.

Palantir's software now sits inside 25 Australian government agencies, the NDIS among them. It's the same Gotham system the IDF used in Gaza, and the mainstream press hasn't written a word about it. Michael West also has Michaelia Cash demanding to know what Albanese is hiding from the Bondi Royal Commission without ever saying what she thinks it is, the ABC's interview with the Israeli officer who ordered the strike on three marked World Central Kitchen vehicles and isn't sorry, and the $900 million Australia has handed Elbit. Then to NSW ICAC, where a witness couldn't recall the texts, the shares, the sign-on fee or a $220,000 invoice. Plus a private credit fund freezing redemptions after nine loans to a collapsed Sydney developer, and a leaked cabinet document on Melbourne Water.

Austrac uses Palantir's Gotham and Foundry platforms. The agency has confirmed it, there is at least a $12 million contract, and Services Australia's own internal documents name Palantir as the software Austrac relies on to manage its financial data holdings. Austrac's NDIS Financial Crime Guide instructs banks to file suspicious matter reports tagged with NDIS keywords. Austrac's own privacy documentation confirms those reports carry the personal details of NDIS participants. Austrac sits on the Fraud Fusion Taskforce, the body driving the crackdown on NDIS spending that MWM has been reporting on for the past fortnight. What nobody in government will say is whether NDIS participant data reaches Palantir, or whether it gets there through Austrac's back door. We put questions to both Austrac and the NDIS. Two days on, neither has answered. Gotham is the same platform the IDF uses in Gaza. It identifies hidden networks, maps the relationships between people, and tracks money flows and movement over time. Palantir chief executive Alex Karp says his company is proud of the role it plays "especially in places we can't talk about".

A NSW bill introduced on 6 August 2026 would let police enforce an order to unlock your phone at an arrest, a roadside stop or other lawful detention, with no search warrant sitting underneath it. Refusing on the grounds that complying would incriminate you is not a reasonable excuse under the bill. The order can be made against someone police only believe has knowledge of an organised crime offence, not just a suspect. Nobody publishes how many phones get opened. The NSW Police annual report doesn't count them, the NSW Crime Commission says it does not publish the figure, and nothing in the bill requires the data to ever be deleted. Digital evidence access orders have been law since February 2023 without a single published number. We asked the Police Minister's office about this. It said it would come back to us. It hasn't.
