I was gonna ask what took them so long…but then I wondered what the catch was.
yea, disarming Hamas is just gonna take away what little armed resistante Palestinians had
in other words, canada is using an overdue noble gesture (Palestinian recognition) as a way to help israel further its genocide. sickening
settlers of a feather flocking together
Not only disarming hamas but also a future palestinian state. Every country has a right to have an army to defend itself
I’m starting to think every sovereign nation should acquire nukes including Palestine.
Thank God.
Just in time for checks watch a decade or two (if not three) after any hope of a viable two state solution has been thoroughly proven impossible by the actions of the West’s favorite fascist apartheid regime.
If you think that being an officially recognized country would protect Palestinians from being oppressed and massacred by Israel, I have some oceanfront condominiums in the Golan Heights to sell you.
I love that everyone’s recognizing it the second that 99% of the people there are going to die of starvation because its already at the point that its irreversible
Preemptive land acknowledgement.
It won’t happen , hamas with not drop arms
Finally someone read the article.
Canada said its recognition is “predicated on the Palestinian Authority’s commitment to much-needed reforms, including the commitments by Palestinian Authority President [Mahmoud] Abbas to fundamentally reform its governance, to hold general elections in 2026 in which Hamas can play no part, and to demilitarize the Palestinian state.”
Hamas must also immediately release all hostages taken in the Oct. 7, 2023, terror attacks on Israel, disarm and “play no role in the future governance of Palestine,” Carney reiterated.
lol. Yeah,the chances of all that happening? Nil. I do think would likely be a move in the right direction, but it will not happen. This is basically an attempt to blame-shift.
Considering Britain and France helped oversee the Mandate of Palestine, this seems like this circumstance should have already been a thing
They didn’t give a shit about the natives then and they don’t give a shit about them now, but images of skeletal children on social media are lowering the tone and making it harder to gaslight the sheep with Zionist propaganda.
In addition to recognizing Palestine, all countries should drop recognition of Israel and recognise the presence of Israelis in Palestine as being illegitimate.
The Israelis will cry about anti-semitism, but I think more and more in the world recognize this trick and are not going to buy it.
Good idea. There are many countries that don’t recognise the settler colony and even some that have unrecognised it, like Iran.
Nice to know that it only takes billions of dollars worth of tariffs for the country of Canada to act … or 50,000 dead people that didn’t have to die, as well as tens of thousands more that are near starving to death.
And then what?
Let’s say everyone in the world except the US recognizes the Palestinian state. Would that change literally anything at all?
Meanwhile, Canada continues to send weapons to Israel.
For the children dying of starvation and bombs right now? Not much of a difference.
For recognition that their suffering is unjust? Huge difference.
If anyone is sarcastic about Canada, France or any other nations about this issue and criticizing them about the lack of support , I sure hope as fuck that you put your money and your votes where your mouth is wherever you are located.
Ffs, Palestinians, including farmers, inventors, and just general lovely folk have not had anywhere to turn for ages. Now there will be a generation of serious nourishment deprivation, where said they survive they will likely be diminished and devalued because of Israel imposing starvation and trauma upon them.
Any support now is critical, and empty words of support are unfortunately more than the sheer genocide of both bodies and minds that is happening now.
Empty words of support work to demobilize the masses. Canadians see this and think things are going to be okay.
People need to understand that their government is still killing Palestinians.
I 100% agree with you. We can say “yay good job government” bit then we need to keep our eyes on them, our voices loud, and make sure those words are followed by actions.
Keep making noise for Gaza, this fight is not over. I wont forget the government’s complicity in all of this, but they can still make the better choice now.
technically we don’t officially send weapons but the loopholes are so large that it’s not true at all
About fucking time
And they will plan it even stronger if Israel doesn’t start to genocide slower.
Yeah should have been done a long time ago, but Canada had to wait to see what everyone else is doing first.
Shame on all governments and world leaders for allowing and in some cases assisting in this tragedy.
All these leaders wouldn’t be doing this, if 1) it already wasn’t too late, and 2) they weren’t permitted (or recommended) to do so. No country is led by free men.
