It’s bad enough that this motion was defeated. The fact that it was defeated by a wide margin highlights the degeneracy of Canada’s political elite. They have no moral authority to criticize the human rights abuses of anyone. @yuenpauwoo is an honourable exception.

My motion calling on Canada to examine its risk of complicity in grave violations of international law in Gaza was defeated 40-12. Here is the exchange that preceded the vote:

You have to do better with that brand new $1 billion CAD propaganda budget. Arabs rejected the "two-state solution" in 1947 because it gave 55% of the land to the Jews who at that time owned only 7%. Arab armies "invaded" only after months of Jewish terror depopulating dozens of Palestinian villages and neighbourhoods. Doesn't everyone know that by now? Read "The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine" by Israeli historian Ilan Pappe.

In 1947, the UN offered a two-state solution. The Jews said YES. The Arabs said NO. Neighboring Arab countries invaded the young Israel. If you reject peace and start a war, you can’t claim victimhood. History matters. 🇮🇱

🚨This short film exposes the true story of Israel's creation, entirely through the words of its own founders For decades, Israel’s lies have been carefully designed to demonize its victims. To ensure that no matter the crimes it commits, the children it slaughters, the world remains incapable of empathy for Palestinians, or at best, treats it with the same apathy that has allowed this to go on for as long as it has On the 78th anniversary of its creation, it's time the world knew that Israel's past is not different from the brutal present the world is finally seeing

My great aunt, Elham Farah, a Palestinian Christian and Gaza’s first modern-day music teacher, was shot by Israeli soldiers and run over by a tank. Here I recount what happened, based on accounts from those who witnessed her final moments. May the perpetrators face justice.

Canada must follow Italy’s lead in ending defence ties with genocidal Israel. Terminate the Canada-Israel Strategic Partnership and suspend all bilateral cooperation on defence and security matters.

in response to the "ceasefire" agreement, Israel dropped over 100 bombs across densely populated areas of Beirut, murdering hundreds of families in their homes. this demonic entity knows only mass murder, stealing, domination, destruction, and crying victim at the same time. they bombed a funeral—literally people trying to bury a loved one were slaughtered from the air. I hate these demons so much. the whole world does, and that's the only morsel of comfort, because that righteous hate will blow up in their faces someday when they least expect it.

I have not seen a single mainstream media outlet give this the attention it deserves. Israel blew up an entire Lebanese town, an ancient place. It should be headline news. There’s footage of it happening. Imagine this was your town, and you saw every building blown up by a terrorist army to prevent you from ever returning. You would at the very least expect wall to wall coverage. Instead it passes without a word. It’s not the only town Israel has blown up. And sadly it probably won’t be the last.

I wrote about the endlessly fascinating connection between Orthodox Christianity and Palestinian national self-determination, including its later influence on Palestinian communism, but I don’t know where to publish it because it’s so specific and historical.

Apr 5: "Open the fuckin' Strait, you crazy bastards, or you'll be living in Hell - JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah." 😂

Gaza is the closest reflection of Easter in the world today. Destroyed, buried, and still it rises, again and again, through the ages. A people who resist and sacrifice so a new world can be born again. If resurrection means anything, it’s this. Christ is risen.

It’s remarkable that Christians can publicly celebrate Easter in Tehran, but not in Jerusalem.

While our Christian community in Gaza prays for hope this Easter, “Christian” Zionism turns their devastation into despair, cheering it on as prophecy. Christians must pledge to confront, defeat and dismantle this vile heresy that disgraces us all.

1923, Jaffa, Palestine 🇵🇸 A Palestinian Christian girl celebrating Easter ✝️ Photographed by Dutch photographer Frank Scholten author of the two volume publication La Palestine illustrée, 1929.

"Israel wants to live in peace with its neighbours" is the biggest lie of all time. This is the West Bank. No Hamas, no war, yet attacked like this daily by "settlers" backed by the IDF. A savagely violent Jewish supremacy armed by the EU/UK/US

This Easter confronts us with a painful truth: many Christians have turned away from the way of the cross. Instead of following the crucified Christ, they align with the empire that crucified him—seeking power and influence.

I don't believe you can be a good Zionist anymore than I believe someone can be a decent Nazi. The ideology itself describes a major character flaw. I cannot take seriously the idea that some ethnicities or religious groups are inherently prone to nefarious behavior; it goes against everything I've learned about the human condition over the course of my strange adventures on this planet. I absolutely do believe there are political ideologies whose adherents are universally dogshit people, though. If you've been watching the incineration of the Gaza Strip and thinking it's good, or thinking it's complicated, or thinking it's an unfortunate development that can be blamed on a few bad apples in the Israeli government but doesn't reflect Israel's nature as a whole, then you're a piece of shit. You're a horrible human being. It really is that simple. If you can look at Israel starting all these wars, bombing the fuck out of Iran and Lebanon and Palestine, passing laws to execute Palestinians exclusively while sparing Jews from the same sentencing for the same crimes, and still fail to recognize that the Israel experiment must be aborted, then you have not developed a functioning conscience. You have wasted your time on this earth. You have not managed to mature into a morally healthy human in all these years you've been alive. There are Zionists who are vegetarian, who are nice to their pets, who give money to charity — but there are no Zionists who are actually good people. John Wayne Gacy did charity clown shows for hospitalized children, but he was still a serial killer and a very bad man. His abusiveness eclipsed any other kindness he may have performed, and became his defining characteristic as an individual. Being a supporter of the Israel project is exactly the same. It doesn't matter what else you do with your life if you stand on the side of a man-made murder machine which is fueled by the blood of the innocent. You're just plain awful.

Canada is NOT turning on Israel. Reality: Carney says words. Israel doesn't care. The end.
