being hijacked by an occupation which has led to conflict for so many innocent people, whether the victims of October 7 in Israel or the ongoing attack in Gaza.

Good to see some sanity, someone pointing out that the loss of life on October 7th was ultimately caused by the occupation. Had there been no occupation there would not have been an Oct 7.

About the United Nations Partition Plan for Palestine:

Zionist leaders, in particular David Ben-Gurion, viewed the acceptance of the plan as a tactical step and a stepping stone to future territorial expansion over all of Palestine.

It's actually exactly what the primary national founder of the State of Israel said is what Israel stands for.

The remarks come as a ship loaded with supplies prepares to leave Cyprus on Sunday to provide aid to Palestinians in Gaza. It would be the first vessel in what the European Union has indicated would be a humanitarian sea corridor.

Wasn't it going to take 60 days to build the dock?

Canadian elites still trying to scare Canadians into accepting a lower standard of living with less public services in exchange for privatization of industries, less restrictions on capital flow, and deregulation.

Where is that pic from? I mean which country

I'm glad SCMP is reporting on this because it seems like the Western powers are trying their hardest to show that international law applies only to the little guy; the strong can do whatever tf they want and no law applies to them (while simultaneously preaching about freedom and democracy).

That's good news! How much was the trigger incl shipping?

Lol yea. They also maintain control over their big corpos and that must be threatening to the 9 corporations in a trench coat that the U.S. calls a government. Still, the world doesn't need any more adversarial relationships, thank you very much U.S.A.

That's right, I totally came off wrong. I meant that U.S. lawmakers can't force ByteDance to sell TikTok, as the headline implies.

Can you elaborate?

It's especially unconscionable because the limit before needing to seek congressional authorisation was raised and transactions to Israel were deliberately kept below the reporting limit, so the headline should read "Biden Has Deceptively Snuck Through 100+ Arms Sales to Israel in Just Five Months".

U.S. lawmakers can't force anything on foreign corporations.

If the bill passes in the House and Senate and is signed into law by President Biden, TikTok would eventually be dropped from app stores in the US if its owner doesn't sell. It also would lose access to US-based web-hosting services.

ByteDance would be banned from the U.S. market and lose it's webhosting on U.S. servers.

Also, what's with the "foreign adversary" status of China?

"this part of the wave is from the drum and that part is from the guitar"

So is that information deduced by the listener's mind, as opposed to their ear? Kind of like depth perception in the field of vision?

That's a good article about the "self-defense" pretext for aggression. Here's another one:

Yea, Israel sold drilling rights to Gazas gas last year. https://www.thecanary.co/uk/2023/12/08/bp-israel-gas-licences-protest/

nonsensical statement

Inability to distinguish facts from nonsensical statements, check.

This new significant capability will take a number of weeks to plan and execute.

I hope the Palestinians can hang in there until then. The children have already started dying of starvation.

Thanks for the update

If the Cuban missle crisis is anything to go by then yea, we're gonna need a lot of pants.
