No, other nations have always protected Israel from the consequences of their own actions. No one's entered a war until they start bombing Iranm

Anyone who tells you there's an easy trick to putting a baby to bed just doesn't know enough about babies.

They don't call him Kid Starver for nothing. The worst thing about that guy is he's a human rights lawyer, so there's no possibility that he's poorly informed. He just genuinely doesn't believe Muslims are human beings.

They're called *less* lethal for a reason

Not caring will have that effect

I suspect the only military event trump cares about right now is his birthday parade.

He just sent fighter jets from the UK to support Israel. A genicidal apartheid state. If Carney tries that here I say we lobby the opposition to make it a confidence vote. Canada cannot go to war for fucking Israel.

It makes me sad how fast people forgot Mahsa Amini. What they did to her was awful, and they do things like that all the time. Yes #FreePalestine but also #WomanLifeFreedom

So is Netanyahu though. And he has a very strong interest in involving the US.
comment in response to post
Did he ask if we'd be willing to join the UK in hosting IDF military training? Just let him know that only 10% of us strongly disagree that Israel is committing genocide and under no circumstances will we support sending out military if those morons bomb Iran. halifax.citynews.ca/2025/06/11/p...

If our governments try to drag us into war to defend that genocidal shit hole I am burning things down.

I blocked ABC news months ago. They're absolute right wing trash masquerading as news.
comment in response to post
Wow, they whine about the election being stolen while they don't even respect their own. The Democratic party is an absolute waste.
comment in response to post
Lol, what did he expect? Look how trump treated Ukraine. If Russia gives the trump administration what they're asking for then they get bombed by Israel next month. I'm not a fan of the Iranian government but Trump and Netanyahu aren't the solution for anything.

Yes, you didn't put him in prison

Nice! Thanks for the tip. I'll do that 😄

It's insane that this is how far you have to go to write satire about the US government.

Lol I'm sure China's terrified

And it's practically impossible to shut off the stupid AI. You have to actively avoid it. It sucks.

Millions of us across the world have spent nearly 2 years watching endless horror unfold in Gaza, while our governments pearl clutch over Israel and claim that using white phosphorus on babies and bombing hospitals is somehow self defense. Do you think we'll move on? Forget? We will not. Not ever.
comment in response to post
Our nation is a joke abroad. Sanctions for Smotrich and Ben Gvir? Over comments even, not actions. There are Canadian citizens who have lost more than that for PROTESTING genocide, and this is the best you've got for people committing one? That's genuinely pathetic.

It's almost like there's a pattern there.
comment in response to post
That's what I think too. He wants to see how quickly they'll break the law and reject the constitution. He wants to see if anyone will fight back.
comment in response to post
Maybe
comment in response to post
Don't worry, our elected officials are making certain the zionist community is assured that this will in no way prompt any kind of response and that they all bravely stand with war criminals. The rest of us are terrorist loving antisemites (anti-Zionist Jews included of course) so we can get fucked.
comment in response to post
Yes, but now and when we do those things matter. Attending a travelling propaganda exhibit untended to elicit sympathy for people committing genocide while said genocide is ongoing and saying "oh poor them" is certainly a choice.
comment in response to post
No, I'm not. I think that what happened on October 7th was both an understandable escalation after years of abuses and a horrific tragedy where hundreds of innocent people were killed or had their lives torn apart. I think the entire thing is awful and I would like to see concrete action to end it.
comment in response to post
Israel absolutely does not have carte blanche to destroy Gaza you absolute fucking monster.
comment in response to post
I'm not sure they were wrong exactly. Why is it that Israel can retaliate for Oct 7th and it takes tens of thousands of dead for the people in power to even blink, but the Palestinians can NEVER strike back against Israel? How many dead children do the Gazans need? How many hostages? How many rapes?
comment in response to post
Comparing the attack on Oct 7th, which was itself in response to decades of abuse and apartheid and the constant murdering of Palestinian children, to Israel's ongoing genocide in Gaza and escalating violence in the West Bank is a false equivalency that will not pretend to entertain. Shame on you.
comment in response to post
To be clear, by misrepresented I mean it didn't occur in a vacuum: before October 7th 2023 was the deadliest year on record for Palestinian children killed by the IDF, there were no beheaded babies, there weren't anatomically impossible mass rapes, and there were not 1200 civilians killed by Hamas.
comment in response to post
I don't think Oct 7th is propaganda, it happened and was awful. But those events have been misrepresented and used as propaganda to justify atrocities. This travelling exhibit is hasbara intended to garner support for Israel. Carney should support Canadian Jews many of whom don't stand with Israel
comment in response to post
He said he would impose sanctions and when he was asked about that last week said this wasn't the moment. Why didn't he attend when the aid workers and doctors were giving testimony about what they've experienced in Gaza? The Nova exhibit is propaganda. No more and no less. He was wrong to attend
comment in response to post
And why should he have attended at all? He didn't attend when doctors and aid workers were in Ottawa talking in detail about the atrocities they'd witnessed. He didn't make any posts or statements then. He instead chose to attend a propaganda show and essentially announce he stands with Israel.
comment in response to post
I agree there's more to worry about than just Gaza, but he's gone from making empty threats on sanctions to posting what amounts to pro-genocide propaganda. Unless he has something planned we don't know about, then he's just pulled the kind of about face that means he can't be trusted.

We can't stop the genocide in Gaza no, but we can't stop supplying Israel with the tools used to commit it. We can stop pretending it's a war when it clearly isn't, and we can't stop pretending this started on Oct 7th. Politics are his job, propaganda is not.
comment in response to post
You know Carney's over on twitter right now posting Israeli propaganda about the Nova Festival and how important it is we remember that this war started on Oct 7th. He's a fraud.
comment in response to post
That doesn't mean divesting.
comment in response to post
I did read it. It says we're investing in our military. It says nothing about divesting from countries that supply Israel or ensuing we have a complete embargo. Unless you read a different press release.
comment in response to post
Absolutely. I'm sure Peter Thiel is chomping at the bit to have trump arrest Newsome and appoint him or his lackey to be governor. LA gives you the propaganda machine. San Francisco gives you tech, (and twitter lol), plus port access and major farms. The US needs Cali but they don't need the US.
