@MayorPaterson Curious - in Feb 2022 city hall was lit up in Ukrainian flag colours, and also flew the Ukrainian flag. Was this also outside the scope of municipal government as well insofar as taking positions on international conflicts?

@YoramSchweitzer@AJEnglish This is actually *highly* representative of Israeli society, and AIPAC goals.
These views have been reiterated by many others in the Israeli government. This is not some “fringe” view.
@FremenWormrider @AnnRolle_@OliLondonTV Well look at West Bank then…
Is this the alternative? A rapidly disappearing set of Palestinian Territories, consistently subject to settler terrorist and land theft?
Diplomatic channels (West Bank) didnt work. Armed resistance is not supported (Gaza). Occupation persists.
@AnnRolle_@OliLondonTV Unvetted immigration is a separate issue entirely.
These are Canadians exercising their right to protest, against a government that continues to support an apartheid state.
I appreciate you don’t care whether brown people across the world love or die. That’s fine. Others do.
@AnnRolle_@OliLondonTV Haters of what?
Haters of injustice? Haters of occupation? Haters of genocide? Haters of 9000 prisoners in “administrative detention” many of whom are children? Haters of 70 years of settler violence? Haters of apartheid? Are these things to be loved instead?
@AnnRolle_@OliLondonTV Pro-Zionist our politicians are.
We by default have sold out our morals and values and supported a racist ethnostate in Israel by supplying weapons and conducting a witch-hunt for anyone who dares to speak out.
@AnnRolle_@OliLondonTV These are people of conscience.
To sit idly by iA to support occupation and genocide.
You’re free to choose the side of the oppressor, but don’t try to pose as the victim
@BroomerSai73783@VividProwess You have a view of Islam which unfortunately I can’t help. You sound like you have a lot of preconceived opinions about Muslims.
No sect promotes violence - but no sect forbids resistance in the face of gross injustice and violence.
@BroomerSai73783@VividProwess Uhhh.. not sure what is a “true ahmadia” perhaps your BJP coolaid is messing with you.
Problem is only with one eh?
Which one is that?
@BroomerSai73783@VividProwess Jews and Palestinians were co-existing too prior to the creation of Israel.
You can’t expect peace in the absence of justice.
