Al Jazeera finds all the best anti Israel voices
Afghanistan is a giant country. Gaza is the size of Las Vegas. Do you think maybe that will have an impact?
A lot fewer, based on the attacks so far. While I’m sure lots of people would prefer Gaza to be pushed into the ocean, the end result will likely still be Palestinian but with a different government and decades of rebuilding. It sounds like Israel is mirroring the Iraq or Japan invasion method which means a tear down and rebuild of government that will need to keep promises about launching rockets and other attacks.
Should have been a lot of things. Bibi can go get fucked but in the here and now Israel is going to make sure this conflict ends by force. No more Hamas for nutcases like Bibi to fund.
Duh. Israel is going to want to monitor the region for a long time to make sure Hamas isn’t coming back. That’s going to mean boots on the ground.
Other nations that want to stop this from being permanent will need to step up and volunteer their own soldiers to monitor the region because Israel won’t give up the land without some strong promises that things won’t slip
Poverty has never been a major cause of low births. The poorest countries in the world have the highest birth rates. Instead it’s about increasing women’s health and education, giving them the choice to have fewer children or none. Turns out when they have the choice women don’t want to get pregnant and raise kids at 20. They want to have careers and lives and travel and stuff.
Nations need to make child rearing more appealing for couples to want to be parents. Because a huge chunk of people could have salary raises and homes and be upper class and still now want to have kids.
You’re being downvoted, but a shit tonne of people are justifying the atrocities because it’s againstna people they hate.
Yeah, they are not known for just letting go of someone for no reason. This guy must have been dusty balls useless
Theres only one person to blame and that’s the person who lit it on fire. It’s very convenient for no one except the ultra rich to have any agency in the world but it’s not how reality works
Except this arson wasn’t done by rich people. It was locals who want to use the land for farming cattle.
Absolving individuals for their behaviours is a great way to go nowhere. We all make choices
You see it with everything from food quality, cigarettes, fuel. The standards set in the West prevent so much random shit we never acknowledge.
Ottawans are used to protests. It’s a capital city, there’s serveral protests going in any given day.
What they weren’t used to was the neverending train horns, the constant street blocking, the assaults, the destruction of property, and the constant threats. They lasted way longer than I would have.
Fuck the convoy and fuck the people like Poilievre who supported them.
Yeah the proposal is for all religious texts
Local anger then forgotten. No one would ever hear about it outside the few people who lived nearby
Cool. And what happens to the company? We can for sure just shut down all oil companies today, and what happens then?
People buy oil. They give these companies money because we want what they have. We need to change our behaviours or the polluting does not stop. It just means our money goes to a new oil company.
Who will you buy your oil from then?
We need to change the way we make energy. Killing oil companies is a secondary consequence of switching to renewables
To a degree that was shown in the hot parts of the Cold War like the Vietnam War or the Congo Crisis where they provided logistical support. Like the US, or more accurately as a counter to them, they fiddled with countries for years to get outcomes that benefited the USSR ideology.
You could argue that it’s easier to shake up someone else than lead a full invasion force, but the US has learned that lesson too and followed that same play book. Invasion is harder than giving someone the tools to destroy themselves.
It is wild to see this. It’s amazing how quickly things change.
Yeah, Russia was incredibly powerful in its heyday, both in global influence and military power. Think about how people are worried about climate change now, then double it. That was the threat of nuclear war that kept people awake at night for decades.
After the time of the collapse we found out how empty a lot of their power was. How much of their achievements were less an unstoppable train and more of a rocket that couldn’t be refueled. They had power but they never figured out how to make it sustainable.
Canadian conservatives saw how locked in American conservative voters are and said gotta get me some of that
Expect Poilievre to start raging about drag queens soon
Yes, there are people who 100% think Israel not only should forgive and forget about Oct 7. Then there are the people who think Israelis deserve that and worse.
