In this week's episode, Dr Julie Macken unpacks the dangerous absurdity of war-making power in Australia. As conflict escalates globally, from Gaza to Ukraine, from Iran to Sudan,Julie calls out the hypocrisy of world leaders, the silence around nuclear stockpiles, and the erosion of public trust in our institutions. But here’s the kicker: in Australia, only one person decides if we go to war, the Prime Minister. No Parliament. No public vote. Not even the party room. From Gaza’s genocide to NATO’s spineless posturing, Julie lays bare the truth behind war powers, the media cycle, and how every Australian has a role to play in restoring democratic decision; making before lives are lost again under the guise of “defence.” Listen in, then ask your MP: Why is only one person allowed to declare war in my name?
