There is no more time for excuses: as the evidence of Israel’s genocide continues to mount the international community cannot claim they didn’t know.
As Israeli authorities and forces intensify their brutal campaign of annihilation, particularly in Gaza City, the UN Commission of Inquiry's damning new report provides further confirmation of what Amnesty International and others have been concluding for months: that the Israeli authorities and Israeli forces have committed and are continuing to commit genocide against Palestinians in Gaza.
ALT It's genocide.

If you aren’t sick to your stomach, if you aren’t maddened beyond belief, if you aren’t heartbroken, if you aren’t feeling rage or grief or something else, then you aren’t paying attention.

Month after month, the world has watched as Israel treated Palestinians in Gaza as a subhuman group unworthy of human rights and dignity, demonstrating its intent to physically destroy them.

More than 300 bodies found in a mass grave at Nasser Hospital in Gaza, including children executed with their hands tied behind their backs.
Children. Executed. With their hands tied.
We are witnessing a genocide, and the International Criminal Court is nowhere to be found.

If you die, in uniform, while killing brown people, you are made into a hero.
If you die, in uniform, protesting the killing of brown people, you are made to be mentally ill.
Are these the esteemed values of western "civilization"?

The Canadian doctor who was suspended from U of O for being pro Palestine went to Gaza 💜

With the attention of Canadians on the #SuperBowl, Israel launched airstrikes on Rafah where half of Gaza’s population is seeking refuge. Horrific videos show the bodies of children ripped apart by bombs. Gaza is facing annihilation as Canada exports weapons to a genocidal state.

Meanwhile in Canada…
We have been aghast, as have many across Canada, with the racist and Islamophobic messages put forward by BC Post-Secondary Education Minister @selinarobinson.
Her suggestion Palestine was a “crappy piece of land with nothing on it” is horrendous, especially in the midst of ongoing war crimes where thousands of children have been killed in Gaza. It evokes the language of terra nullius, where the people of Palestine are imagined to be non-existent.
Her language is beyond offensive. Organizations across British Columbia are calling for her resignation, including organizations like the Canadian Association of University Teachers. It is hard for us to understand, given this comment amongst many others, how she can be expected to remain a Minister in Premier Eby’s cabinet.
We note that Premier @Dave_Eby has sent a comment sending a clear signal that Minister Robinson’s comments were wrong and unacceptable. Islamophobia is wrong. Anti-Palestinian racism is wrong. Minister Robinson has been engaged in a pattern of behaviour that is wildly unacceptable. Full stop.
We do note that we also find Minister Robinson’s “apology” to be woefully lacking, and contains no acknowledgment of Islamophobia or anti-Palestinian racism. We look forward to ongoing dialogue with the Premier’s office to understand what action steps will be undertaken to make things right.

Canada’s reckless redirection of humanitarian aid away from UNRWA risks pushing the population of Gaza further into famine and genocide. @HonAhmedHussen must immediately reverse this policy, which may violate the ICJ's orders to prevent genocide. cjpme.org/pr_2024_02_02_unrw…

Co-founder of the Black Panther Party Huey P. Newton, with Palestinian resistance fighters outside an unnamed refugee camp in Lebanon in 1980.
Newton would later declare, "we support the Palestinians just struggle for liberation one hundred percent."
Happy Black History Month.

A message to @JustinTrudeau
You have a citizen who has been abducted by the IDF. His safety is important, as is the safety of all of the innocent people of Gaza.
Everyone please follow @ShoumanMansour pages for directions and make sure the government of Canada acts swiftly.

Canada’s suspension of UNRWA aid is a hypocritical act of collective punishment against a refugee population facing genocide. Instead of urging Israel to comply with the ICJ's orders to prevent genocide, Canada has joined a political attack on the victims. @HonAhmedHussen

Update: Canada is now supporting UK/US airstrikes on cities in Yemen. Instead of pushing for ceasefire in Gaza and the Red Sea, Canada is a participant in escalating the war. Stop bombing Yemen, end the genocide in Gaza! – at Montréal, Québec
