Half the population in Gaza—one million, at least—are children.

This sweeping act of indiscriminate retribution violates international law, is morally indefensible, and punishes innocent civilians—men, women, the elderly, and children alike—for Hamas’ terrorism. The bloodthirsty celebrations of this ill-conceived act of collective punishment/revenge are as depraved as the celebrations or justifications of Hamas’ sadistic terrorist operation against Israelis.

In both cases, civilians are the ones made to suffer most.

Hi @PierrePoilievre, might not go over well w the Save Canada scene you threw a bone to yesterday with your belated supportive comment on their anti-LGBT marches/rallies couched in "parental rights," but here they are again in their true form.
Worthy of condemnation, no? #cdnpoli @PierrePoilievre If you're going to continually play footsie with the fringe, Conservatives, eventually the feigned shock — shock! — at stuff like this is going to wear thin.

Though I'd argue it already has.

Quite a few of those who fashion themselves warriors against "groomers" and sexual predation are fanboying over Tucker Carlson and Andrew Tate, and Musk's amplification of them. If you are naïve enough to believe that those who hype this interview, or continue to stan any of those involved, are sincerely concerned about sex trafficking, opposed to sexual exploitation, or invested in combating sex crimes, there's a seat reserved for you on Epstein's jet.

The doc is an ideological effort that could be mistaken for a typically shallow and dishonest Tucker Carlson production.

The work from precisely who you'd expect: "Someone who propagates and monetizes misinformation, cultural grievance and social media mob mentality." #cdnpoli https://t.co/juZixvfOhI

While it's true the massacre video remains active on FB and "does not violate community standards," there is no need or justification for posting a screenshot of said video which offers people a direct way to find it.

Good lord, the irresponsibility of some ppl right now. On a newsworthy angle:

Thruout the 2019 federal elxn, I tried to press then-leader of the Conservative Party Andrew Scheer about his party's ties to the self-styled "Imam of Peace," friend and ally of white supremacists and enthusiastic promoter of the "white genocide/replacement" conspiracy. #cdnpoli Neither Tawhidi's proud endorsement of/by extremists known for influencing white supremacist terrorists, nor his obsessive demonizing of Muslims, were enough to prompt hesitation by those in govt about embracing/amplifying him. #cdnpoli

With news of significant sanctions against Russia which target, among other entities, the Wagner Group, I'm going to link to some further reading for those who'd like to know more about Putin's mercenaries. 🧵#cdnpoli Overview: The Wagner Group: A Russian Symphony of Profit and Politics thesoufancenter.org/intelbrief-the…

Note to Canadian politicians who think it's clever to appear on this network: #cdnpoli See above comment. #cdnpoli Image

The only thing he was cleansed of was the massive wad of cash he forked over for a placebo effect. Or maybe he did some quality drugs and called it a 'cleanse.'

This laughably false assertion can be easily refuted by the ample evidence of overt and proud neo-Nazis, unapologetic antisemites, open white supremacists thruout Canada.
A decent number even participated in CVille, including Montreal's own Daily Stormer celeb "Zeiger." #cdnpoli In CVille, he and others literally stood in front of an antisemitic banner while chanting "GAS THE K***S, RACE WAR NOW," among other things. #cdnpoli

That's "Zeiger" in the sunglasses behind Azzmador there.

I don't think either MP should be allowed to skate on this whole matter.

I hope they are both questioned about it until they give a solid answer as to why they a) lied, or b) failed to verify the claim each heard before sharing as definitive injustices that occurred. #cdnpoli You want to make shit up without consequences, run to Fox News.

Otherwise, own your behaviour here and apologize to Canadians. @markstrahl @MarilynGladuSL

Ontario MPP and noted crank doesn't understand how government works. #cdnpoli Next he'll be calling on people to write to the Queen.

So, @MelissaLantsman choosing to appear on one of the two most overtly white nationalist programs on Fox News puts the lie to any supposed offence taken from Trudeau's lazy line. #cdnpoli Willingly and eagerly appearing on that program, or Tucker Carlson's, speaks to how broken the Conservative party of Canada is.

I wonder if an exclusive with Ezra Levant is next.

This senseless insult, coming from a woman who is routinely and proudly cruel and awful to others, is something. Rita still hasn't bothered to read the piece. Instead, she has pivoted to insulting me while maintaining her original smear.

With respect, the woman you've quote-tweeted and the man who wrote the story are both outstanding journalists, and the story was newsworthy.

What we in Canada do not need is more needless denigration of those working to cover what is a significant local crisis.

I'm a Canadian and I know this history.

Get a grip and some damned perspective. A tiny number of citizens have decided to gather for public tantrums over live-saving vaccinations and public health policies in place temporarily to mitigate the spread of a deadly and debilitating virus amid a global pandemic which has killed 35,572 Canadians so far. #cdnpoli
