The centrist "common ground with genocidal fascists" bunch often confuse justice with persecution.

For now on I'm calling him Conman Carney. He flew to Egypt to be window dressing for Trump's genocide whitewashing.

The selective use of the term '#hostages' is part of a broader pattern whereby state terror employed in the interests of Western imperialism is acceptable, while any form of resistance is denounced as 'terrorism.'

This is the same pope who embraced the genocidal baby killing president exterminating an entire population, no?

There is no ceasefire, just another Trump con job endorsed by genocidal values sharing liberal sycophants like Carney and Starmer.

"Israeli forces have killed five Palestinians in the Shujayea neighbourhood of Gaza City.
US President Donald Trump has promised lasting peace in the Middle East after signing a Gaza ceasefire deal with the leaders of Qatar, Egypt and Turkiye."

Five Palestinians killed by Israeli forces in Gaza despite ceasefire

Israeli army confirmed it opened fire, saying a group had approached its soldiers before being targeted.

Mark Carney went to Egypt and had no words for the 70,000, minimum, dead Palestinians, most women and children, or the freed Palestinian hostages, including children, prohibited from even smiling for their release. This is racism.

What's fascinating is the complete capitulation to proto-fascism by liberals and liberal institutions. The entire Anglo-American world, many governments led by liberals, showed up to praise Trump for pausing a genocide most have yet to even acknowledge.

As people, we need to recognize the war against Indigenous peoples and cultures begun in 1492 has never ended and that Gaza is part of that war.

Sheryl Weikal and the colorful Parrotlegals @leftistlawyer.com · 1d

The United States is currently in material breach of over five hundred legally binding treaties with Indigenous nations. We violated even the treaties we coerced at the point of a sword.

We cannot talk about restoring the rule of law until we acknowledge and repair this fundamental truth.

SeanH @drunkondespair.bsky.social · 1d

American liberals hate Trump, but liberals in Europe and Canada fete him. Why? Liberals keep telling us they share the "values" of genocide, racism, and fascism.

In 2 Years of Gaza Genocide, Sunday Shows on NBC, ABC and CNN Have Not Featured a Single Palestinian Guest

In a microcosm of the U.S. coverage of Israel’s war on Gaza, since Oct. 7, 2023, influential Sunday news shows have not seen fit to book any Palestinians.

For @mark-carney.bsky.social and his minion, @anitaoakvilleeast.bsky.social, Palestinians are not fully human, their lives are without value, they don't grieve, love, or aspire. This is the politics of settler colonialism and Canada's Indigenous peoples should know they, too, are Palestinian.

This was Canadian PM @mark-carney.bsky.social’s statement this morning (not posted here, I wonder why).

No mention of Palestinians AT ALL.

He is a collaborator.

This is just toxic racist bike spewing from another Zionist Nazi who who insists on Arab peoples accepting being subhuman and indiscriminately slaughtered by the modern Nazi regime.

Zionism is a cancer on the face of humanity that must be cut out.

Lebanon loves Hezbollah because it defeats Nazis.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.

Read that back.

When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

They did elect Hezbollah. A) There has been no election since members of the government sold out the people to racist Zionist fascism. B) Lebanon is a confessional system. Allow a referendum: Do you agree Lebanon should lay down the nation and people as a sacrifice to genocidal, European racism?

It is important to draw attention to this civilian killing by the IDF in particular.

If we attempt to ignore this killing to preserve the ceasefire, Israel will see that as a green light to kill more Palestinians.

Israel executing people in the coming days will kill the ceasefire. Speak up!

Yes, I agree. But arguably it didn't require an F-35. In any case, I don't believe Canada requires these jets for "national defense" and that really they're a form of tribute.

Gunmen associated with Israel is a critical missing point in this headline.

Israel backs certain gangs in Gaza, this is a known thing and has been for a long time. The gang that killed this journalist is one such gang that is known to be associated with Israel
