    🇨🇳 China just launched a nuclear-capable missile into the South Pacific Nuclear-Free Zone, days after 🇦🇺 Australia and 🇫🇯 Fiji signed a new defence pact. Beijing called it routine. @aaron_sarin argues it's the opposite: a warning shot against the united front Beijing fears most.

    Gary Stevenson says Britain's wealth inequality is spiralling out of control. The data says otherwise—and Channel 4 never thought to check, writes @K_Niemietz.

    For @Quillette I wrote about Israel's three wars of choice in 1956, 1982, 2026. In all three cases, a devastating opening blow was supposed to set in a motion a chain of events which would solve a pressing security concern as well as reshape the entire regional diplomatic order.

    "This is not some minor point. The claim that wealth inequality is exploding is the central premise of Gary Stevenson’s entire economic theory, &, by extension, of this documentary. Take that away, and there is nothing left" --@K_Niemietz for @Quillette quillette.com/2026/07/14/gar…

    Women have been going off to minor parties for a long time—they lost trust, they didn't feel represented. Now, with the rise of One Nation, they've been in lockstep with the men... just slightly ahead the entire time. - @parnellpalme

    In just two sentences, my friend Shany Mor (@ShMMor) captures the utter cluelessness of so much supposedly "learned" discourse about Israel's strategic predicament in both Gaza and the West Bank: "Israel can neither continue to occupy the West Bank nor consider withdrawing from

    Three times, Israel has launched a carefully planned war to remake the Middle East: Suez 1956, Lebanon 1982, Iran 2026. But none of them resulted in regime change. @ShMMor in @Quillette on what happens when grand strategy collides with reality.

    Israel has fought plenty of wars it didn't choose. But only three times has it started one as part of a sweeping plan to redraw the entire region. None of them went the way the planners expected, writes @ShMMor 🧵

    In 2026, Israel appears to have borrowed straight from the 1982 playbook: instead of Lebanese Maronites, this time it was Iranian Kurds — armed and given Israeli air support — expected to march on Tehran and topple the regime. It didn't happen. The US vetoed the plan. Most of

    So does 2026 end up looking more like 1956 — a "failure" that quietly banks strategic gains? Or more like 1982 — a battlefield win that becomes a long-term strategic loss? Shany Mor lays out the case. 👇

    Excellent contemporary #Auspol discussion & data analysis between @clairlemon & @parnellpalme of @CISOZ - this sort of both cerebral and spirited discussion is what the ABC exists for but does not provide so good to see @Quillette filling a gaping void
