Germany has some experience with this sort of thing.

Canada has a stellar track record when it comes to preserving indigenous communities. I'm sure they would extend that to other indigenous communities across the world.

Hey now it's because it's antisemitic to support Palestine!

How can you say it's the wrong choice for anyone to try to defeat an oppressive evil such as slavery?

It was a wrong choice from the perspective of their masters.

That's literally the opposite of what happened.

Once Haiti declared independence, they invaded Santo Domingo, effectively ending Spanish occupation of that part of the island. Slavery ended up being abolished by default once the Spanish were removed in 1822.

Haiti made the wrong choice of demanding freedom from slavery before European powers were ready to adapt to life without human chattel. We've never let them forget that.

Right wing lunatics point out that BC has fared worse. Despite the evidence that you just shared.

I was just thinking this. We all know it will fall on the Sherpas to carry people's poop back down.

If you claim to be a democracy, at least try to act like one. Foreign policy aside.

Whataboutism

No, you're a hypocrite.

Ah yes, an aspirational dictatorship admiring another dictatorship. India has managed to jail members of opposition parties, just like Russia did.

They claim corruption, which may be true; but there is evidence of corruption within the ruling party too.

Clearly the children in the West Bank didn't condemn Hamas.

Israel should take note: the Nigerians did it without bombing the crap out of them.

I guess shit matters when you're not led by a genocidal maniac.

There was a video showing ballot stuffing in Russia's election.

This Republican move seems to be an effort to emulate that election.

The Biden administration: this is bad, but there's nothing we can do. Now go vote for us, because if Trump was President, we'd have American soldiers doing the killing.

So they're affiliated with the government, not necessarily Hamas.

An order of magnitude lower would still be 3,000 civilians dead - that's on the scale of 9/11.

India well on its descent into a failed state with their rapes and lynchings.

Aren't the police typically not affiliated with any party?

Ah yes another Israeli showing their true colours and equating all Palestinians to Hamas. Nowhere in the motion did it indicate that Hamas would be legitimized. The motion did call for recognition of Palestinian statehood - if we accept that Israel has a right to exist based on the UN resolution, then Palestine has a right to exist based on the same resolution.

Now on to the nonsense about Palestinians rejecting the peace process. Remember, it was an Israeli who assassinated Yitzhak Rabin, thereby derailing the Oslo accords - there is some evidence that Shin Bet (the Israeli secret service) was aware of the threat on Rabin's life and stood by. In 1996, the final nail was put in the coffin when Israelis elected Netanyahu, knowing full well he was against the peace process.

The only conclusion that can be drawn is that it is in fact the Israelis who are against peace in the middle east, and this woman is simply projecting her views on the Palestinian people.

I am also not convinced this woman constitutes a minority in Israel. The majority of Israelis remain silent during the ongoing campaign against the Gazans.
