Fed up with the status quo so I rant a bit. Thoughts and opinions are my own.

@JordanUhl The conscience speaking out there maybe?

[Lambiam @lambiamtweets]

I'm an anti-war Gen X'r who has been ridiculed all my life by Boomers for calling for diplomacy over acts of vengeance. Its never helped, no one ever wins and it only causes more pain. Yet we here are again...on the edge of all- out-war 😢

[Lambiam @lambiamtweets]

@Joe_Roberts01 always respected your opinion as a socialist & I sympathize with your pain for the loss of Jewish lives. What I don't understand is your pro-war, pro IDF position when it hurts the collective good of your own society. Help us understand Joe? https://t.co/eJo2SqQ9H0

Zionist forces brutally assault Orthodox Jews in the streets of Jerusalem for opposing genocide in Gaza. Haven’t seen this kind of state violence against Jews since Nazi Germany. Images like this destroy the myth that the State of Israel is Jewish.

Not in our name. #CeasefireNow #StopEthnicCleansing

Thank you @jeremycorbyn for meeting with my office today. We cannot remain silent while Palestinians suffer in the face genocide. #CeasefireNow #EndTheOccupation

Can’t get those innocent kids out of my mind…

[Toronto St. Paul's NDP @stpaulsndp]

Read the Toronto-St. Paul's Riding Association's statement on MPP Sarah Jama. Link to the full statement: https://t.co/I2Nsweh9td

[Lambiam @lambiamtweets]

This is a huge failure on the new leader. Hamilton is one of the highest concentrations of NDP voters in the province. The fact that she couldnt navigate this issue is going to resonate into next years election.

[Gru @Gruesomebrat]

@brknrun @hamiltonlabour @SarahJama_ On the left, Sarah's call for a ceasefire.

On the right, Marit repeating that call, 8 days later.

[Lambiam @lambiamtweets]

If this is how the ONDP treat their members, I won't be suporting this Party anymore. Very very disappointing.

Statement condemning the Ontario NDP for the removal of @SarahJama_ from Caucus
-----

It was with sadness and frustration that the Hamilton and District Labour Council read that our Member of Provincial Parliament, Sarah Jama, has been removed from the @OntarioNDP Caucus.

@ItsSamG @BluenoserGalNS And Nachos

[Lambiam @lambiamtweets]

@Hedgesgurl 1000% better than his first two choices. A 3rd party push only works at the grassroots local level. He is such an important figure for so many people. Now he runs in all states unfettered and will scare the crap out of the Dems.

And we're back heading north Downsview to Barrie

[Lambiam @lambiamtweets]

Escaped the city by TTC only to be stranded at DownsviewPark. On the good side a train just passed heading south, likely positioning. Its hot and people starting to get edgy #GoTrain

[Lambiam @lambiamtweets]

More trains positioning southbound. So looking like they might restart Go Train schedule soon.
