Americans are the only people on the planet who can have their government drop 150,000 pounds of bombs on a foreign country in a single night and they don’t even know it happened.
That’s how deaf we’ve become to the hum of the war machine.
Classifying babies as guilty combatants in order to justify eradicating them, and arguing that an entire population of 2 million people (or however many are left) are legitimate targets for slaughter, was the foundation of the Nazi holocaust and every war crime in history:
In its moment of terminal decline, the entire Western world has been revealed as fundamentally committed to the same technologies of domination that birthed and sustained it: colonialism, war, plunder, racism, and fascism.
Yesterday, @JustinTrudeau declared he's a Zionist. For those of us puzzled by Canada’s silence on Gaza’s genocide, this is no surprise.
Zionism, like Canadian settler-colonialism, is rooted in displacement and oppression. As a PM who claims to recognize colonial crimes here, we expect him to see the same beyond our borders.
Sadly, the crimes he condemns in Canada, he condones when committed by Israel. #cdnpoli
Antisemitism, like all racism, is repugnant and must be fought as a legal and moral duty. But opposing it should not mean ignoring the rights of others.
No ideology justifies the dispossession of a people or the denial of their right to self-determination. #Canada has legal obligations to support, not obstruct, Palestinian self-determination—failure to do so can have legal consequences under int'l law. Canadians should be fully aware of this.
The violence against Palestinians in the West Bank is a reminder that genocide, ethnic cleansing and apartheid have not ended.
We will never stop opposing the occupation of Palestine because we believe in a simple and moral truth: every human being deserves to live in freedom.
Trudeau is beyond horrible. Not one word to say about the Palestinian prisoners released -- not one -- even though they have Canadian family members as well.
He is a puppet of the Zionist establishment in Canada.
"Your channel refers to Palestinians as prisoners, even the children arrested without trial, & the Israelis as hostages, is again a racialised othering of Palestinians that has allowed the genocide to happen for 15 months"
@GhassanAbuSitt1 yesterday
🚨Israel drops the investigation against 5 soldiers who RAPED & MURDERED Palestinian hostages, bragged about it in Whatsapp messages & confessed to the police!
One IDF soldier filmed himself stabbing a handcuffed Gazan hostage in the face!
All of them were exonerated today!
Today at the CBC:
•An anchor scolds a guest for using the word “genocide” to describe the genocide Israel is committing that killed her brother
•Someone spots a poster in the office advertising training sessions for employees with an Israel lobby group
Coincidence?
Yes. Here are 3 more. This was not a military response. This was a planned annihilation. Netanyahu was caught on camera BEFORE October 7th spelling out his plan for Palestinians.
So do I have this right?
@LemkinInstitute calls it genocide in Gaza.
@CIJ_ICJ calls it genocide in Gaza.
@MSF calls it genocide in Gaza.
@amnesty calls it genocide in Gaza.
@hrw calls it genocide in Gaza.
The @CBCNews (via @NatashaFatah): “We cannot use that word to describe what is happening….whatever it is called”.
BREAKING -- Trump RAISES prescription drug costs by as much as 4200%.
He just reversed all the cost caps Biden negotiated for anyone on Medicare or Medicaid, over 120 MILLION Americans.
He's pro Big Pharma -- and pro Big Insurance.
He doesn't care about you. It was all LIES.
Remember when Israel kept denying using starvation as a weapon of war?
On Jan 16, Israel allowed only 6 trucks into Gaza
Yesterday, Israel allowed 915 trucks into Gaza
They could have let in that many trucks on any day for 15 months. They weaponized food as a bargaining chip!
