Según la Universidad de Brown, solo en Irak, Afganistán, Siria, Yemen y Pakistán, EEUU mató a más de 4,5 millones de personas, desplazaron a 60 millones de personas y provocaron 7,6 millones de niños hambrientos.

El 81% de las guerras desde 1945 fueron provocadas por EEUU... estos son los verdaderos millones de muertos que no te cuentan, los del capitalismo.

Tara moved to Israel five years ago from Texas.

Her message to the Palestinians living in Palestine is simple: 'Leave or we will kill you!'

Perhaps this conflict isn't that complicated after all...

THROWBACK: Soviet soldiers hurl captured Nazi banners at the foot of Lenin’s Mausoleum during Moscow’s iconic 1945 Victory Parade

One of the standards tossed belonged to Hitler’s personal bodyguard, symbolizing victory over Nazi Germany

Prime Minister Goldman Sachs claims to have “deep concern for the continued humanitarian crisis in Gaza”, yet he refuses to sanction Israel while imposing vast sanctions on Russia and Iran.

This is the fraudster who told the Davos crowd that Canada would apply the same standards to everyone.

Huge BDS victory on the heels of May Day!

BC Nurses Union passes a member-led resolution to no longer invest internal union funds in companies profiting from occupation of Palestine.

3/ In other words, Norway uses industry profits to support the public good. Prime Minister Carney’s fund uses public money to support private profits.

Half of Canadians are living paycheque to paycheque. We need our government to step up and actually govern.

Destroying the @InternetArchive's @WayBackMachine would be the equivalent of the burning of the Library of Alexandria - one of the worst losses of knowledge in history.

Media giants are now threatening to do this.

We can't let this happen.

Pass it on.

NEWS: Huge first win for Mayor Mamdani’s tax-the-rich plans in NYC.

Mamdani just secured a deal with Gov. Hochul to create the state’s first-ever tax on $5 million+ second homes owned by ultrawealthy out-of-state residents.

Hochul hopes to raise $500 million annually that would be used to address the city’s deficit.

This video will break your soul.

A little Palestinian girl cries while searching for her killed mother.

She screams: “I want my mother.”

Zionists will say she deserves this.

Hours after Iran and the U.S. reached a ceasefire deal, Israel launched one of its most devastating attacks on Lebanon to date.

Over a hundred strikes in ten minutes - carnage in Beirut, where hundreds of thousands of displaced people are sheltering.

Hundreds dead, entire neighbourhoods reduced to rubble. Reports of ethnic cleansing and open discussion of permanent military occupation.

Prime Minister Carney has rightly condemned the invasion as illegal, but words are not enough.

Canada must bring sanctions against Israel, cancel the Canada-Israel free trade agreement, implement a real two-way arms embargo, and use every diplomatic and economic tool at our disposal to rein in Israel.

US-Israeli impunity has shredded the international order: Canada should lead in rebuilding it.
