The Vanishing Mediator

On August 28, 2025, Usman Khawaja — Australia’s Test opener — walked into Parliament House with a message that shook Canberra: Sanction Israel. End complicity in Gaza’s genocide. Facing Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and Treasurer Jim Chalmers, Khawaja demanded Australia cut trade with Israel until famine, bombings, and war crimes cease. His words echoed louder than stadium cheers: “Courage is never easy. Humanity or silence — the choice is yours.” This is no longer about cricket. It’s about hospitals reduced to rubble, children buried under debris, and Gaza’s 470,000 facing catastrophic hunger. It’s about calling genocide by its name. Khawaja stood where politicians falter — reminding the world that silence is betrayal. If a cricketer can speak truth, what excuse do leaders have?
