    This is absolutely pathetic. What a pathetic government that we have.

    A Zionist Palestine??? That doesn’t exist. That’s Israel.

    And how come that recognition is conditional? How are Palestinians supposed to hold an election when their whole land is occupied and half their people have been killed or about to be killed? What a fucked up thing to do!

    God damn I hate this country.

          Try reading the entire post before you comment. Unless it’s just easier for you to work with fewer details…

        What an absolutely useless sentiment. What were you hoping to accomplish here? Are we not permitted to want better from our country?

          Absolutely not! In fact, we should be actively working to make Canada a shittier place for everyone!

          /s in case it wasn’t obvious.

          Let me clarify… If you hate this country as the OP said… then find a new home. Wanting better for your country demonstrates caring not hate. Many people are unhappy about many things right now but continuing to s**t on the country is the true useless sentiment here.

            C’est mon pays icitte. Ça l’est depuis des generations. Peut-être qu’on devrait juste se séparer à la place et créer notre propre pays comme on essaye de faire depuis longtemps, mais que le Canada pis ça maudite mentalité de colonialiste n’arrête pas de nous empêcher de faire.

            On a supporté les autochtones et les métis de l’ouest canadien quand le Canada les a écrasés pour faire son chemin de fer.

            On a supporté l’union du nord des États-Unis contre les secessionistes du sud quand le Canada jouait des deux côtés.

            On a supporté toutes les nations du monde qui ont cherché à s’émanciper pendant que le Canada était contre.

            Et on a spécialement toujours été contre l’impérialisme britannique peu importe où c’est.

            C’est dans nos valeurs fondamentales.

    WTF is a Zionist Palestine?
    Palestine with all Jewish population instead of a partial Jewish population?

    I understand he’s trying to communicate the idea of a Palestinian state that agrees with the idea of Israel also existing as a state, and that he’s trying to walk a line where he upsets the fewest possible stakeholder groups, but it just comes across in a way that probably pisses everyone off. The double standards are also just absurd. The expectations placed upon the Palestinians after they have been victims of genocide are so much stricter than anything he ever discusses for Israel after they have been the perpetrators of a genocide.
