Israeli tanks fired directly at civilians on Al-Rashid Street on Thursday as they were trying to return to northern Gaza.

Biden and his team made their choice.

Huh? Biden believed it, supported it and enabled it. How much more evidence do you need?

There's no way around it. Biden and his team chose fascism/zionism/genocide over democracy. They were smart enough to know the consequences of what they were doing and they did it anyway.

Carney is proving himself to be a spineless cynical opportunist. He once pretended to support climate finance. When that became unpalatable, he abandoned it.

Anyway you slice it, bringing all out shameless fascism to the US is transformative. If you can’t see that, your head might be stuck up your ass.

“Fear of a terrorist infiltration” alert from the Zionist regime for a settlement in the middle of the West Bank.

They have an automated nationwide alert system in case a Palestinian is suspected to be in the Whites Only neighborhoods the Zionists built in the legally Palestinian part of Palestine.

Tzofar automated Israeli alert showing “Fear of a terrorist infiltration” directly in the center of the West Bank at some tacky Whites Only neighborhood

Now if this were true and not just a racist thing this racist guy is saying to deflect Israeli responsibility for genocide, why does the IOF systematically use Palestinians as human shields?

apnews.com/article/isra...

AP News article:
Israeli use of human shields in Gaza was systematic, soldiers and former detainees tell the AP

TEL AVIV, Israel (AP) - The only time the Palestinian man wasn't bound or blindfolded, he said, was when he was used by Israeli soldiers as their human shield.

So what is BC proposing besides more LNG? Why haven't we heard a peep about the badly needed regional electric railway expansion as proposed by leading economists and BC's biggest union? Why continue to ignore climate infrastructure?

One from the archives. Back in January BBC News apologised for the error of calling Israeli hostages 'prisoners'.

But they never apologise for calling the thousands of Palestinian hostages 'prisoners', do they? Of course they don't because that's not an error, its deliberate.

Cycling futures start with.... robust urban and regional passenger rail networks! Seriously. People need to get around beyond the range of a bicycle and aren't going to abandon their cars unless they can do that conveniently, efficiently, safely and affordably.

It's just a super boring question, especially at parties. If someone wants to tell you, they will.

Been like that for decades. What would help? CBC badly needs to decentralise away from Toronto and embed itself into smaller communities.

Less than 200km of the 10,000s of railways in Canada are electrified - yet that’s not even worth a mention? Hard to take the institute seriously if it skips infrastructure that vital and obvious.
