What a weird way to refer to your country. "The one and only Jewish state" thats like saying "the one and only American state" or "the one and only French state"
Well, I was on the fence about Carney, now I see he won't be totally awful for the country.
At least he answers questions comprehensively.

Ha, "civilization". So that's what they're calling genocide today. Netanyahu needs to be prosecuted for crimes against humanity.
Isn't that the standard line when it comes to people settling land with pre-existing tenants?

This is the same rhetoric that was used in Canada's genocide of indigenous peoples.
Part of reconciliation is denouncing what happened in Canada, which is still being felt today, and working towards reparations that are led by Indigenous peoples. We must learn from what happened and do better. But it is all in vain if we support the same atrocities being committed in other parts of the world.

Stacks of dead innocent people and he thinks the other guys are the barbarians. Irresponsible statement?! HAHAHA. Get fucked you murderous piece of shit! There is no justification for what you are doing. And who cares about your one and only state. You don't deserve it.
I hate Hamas but the way Israel is dealing with this is horrible.
It doesnβt have to black and white or antisemitic to say that.
And yes, Hamas is playing an asymmetrical game and using the rules of engagement as a shield, but thatβs still not an excuse for leveling entire cities and indiscriminately killing civilians, or blocking aid that you could instead be supervising.
The main thing is that Isreal intentionally blocked and prevented critical aid from reaching a starving population of civilians. Thats the core of the genocide case because it demonstrates motive and intentionality to hurt only the civilian population. The report that revealed this was what flipped my opinion from supporting isreals response and war objectives.
People call bombing buildings and killing civilians genocide but its an expected part of this type of war. If the enemy hides among the civilian population you can kill the civilian population. If the enemy hides in buildings and booby traps them, you can destroy the buildings.
You hate the only armed force defending people who have been genocided for decades?
Lol OK scumbag
Bibi is a fascist authoritarian, a war criminal, and is so corrupt he's facing jail when he leaves office. He is no better than Hamas.
Zionism is literally religious nationalism β which shouldn't be tolerated by ANY religion β therefore Israel IS a fascist state. Society needs to stop acting like it's okay for the abused to become the abuser because they were abused. It was never okay, and it still isn't.
"No better?"
He's fucking worst. Hamas is only this powerful because the secular resistance (the Fatah) agreed to give up armed struggle in exchange for self-determination and got area C and settler violence instead?
He is never leaving office. In the very unlikely event that the Israeli people start to turn on him I am like 90% sure he will try to pull off a coup and/or a false flag op rather than leave peacefully and face the music
that's why he needs this war to keep going and the genocide to continue
And that's why we should bomb tel aviv
And yes, Hamas is playing an asymmetrical game and using the rules of engagement as a shield
They're not, for the most part. This is Israeli propaganda that really took hold, but there was never any evidence for the human shields stuff.
Yep it's actually Israel that has routinely and systematically employed captured Palestinians as human shields. For some background, there is this recent article in Haaretz stemming from anonymous IDF soldier reports, titled "In Gaza, Almost Every IDF Platoon Keeps a Human Shield, a Sub-army of Palestinian Slaves".

It boggles my mind every day that a fucking Jew would commit genocide. Goddamn.
Zionists are the rich jews who paid the Nazis for their right to bail and leave their fellow Jews to die
There's assholes everywhere. A religion, ethnicity, origin, gender, sexual orientation has nothing to do with it.
An asshole is gonna be an asshole.

Imagine the lack of self-reflection to call someone a barbarian while committing genocide to steal more land from Palestine. I can't apprehend the confusion of thought necessary to think this way without starting with some blunt force trauma to the noggin.

Not a Jewish state, a Zionist state. A Jewish state would follow the Mosaic Covenant. They wouldn't covet their neighbor's property (Palestinian's land) They wouldn't kill (genocide). They wouldn't take the name of God in vein by attributing their horrible actions to their god. They wouldn't steal the land and houses from people. They wouldn't bear false witness against their neighbor by calling Palestinians terrorists for simply not giving up when their land is being stolen. A Jewish state might not be that bad, a Zionist state, on the other hand, is a fascist state. #Gaza #Genocide #Fascism #Netanyahu #Zionism #FreePalestine

Shit did Carney criticize Israel? He gonna get 90%in my riding anyway, but I might change from bloc to liberal if it's a proper critic.
Sort of, but he mostly walked it back. Hard to tell if he's doing it to get through the election. https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/carney-clarifies-genocide-remarks-1.7506027

"civilization" vs "barbarians"
Typical speech for those trying to justify genocide.
Where's Boudica when you need her.
Canada has always sided with civilization
well thatβs one way of saying it
"Israeli fascist, go fuck yourself."
I swear the nation of israel is trying to go down with the ship that is the trump administration.
No nation, or organization should be able to get away with murdering hundreds of thousands of civilians just because they want their land.
