Canada has blocked European MP @RimaHas from entering the country. Rima was slated to speak at events on the topic of Palestinian freedom, including one in Montreal with me and others this Monday. Her visa was approved until the last moment, when it was suddenly revoked. By contrast, Israeli officials complicit in the Gaza genocide and related crimes have had no problems visiting Canada. The anti-Palestinian hate group @bnaibrithcanada lobbied against her visit and his now taking credit for her denial. Solidarity with Rima Has, who I know won't be deterred by this blatant act of political censorship, and shame on the Canadian government for caving yet again to anti-Palestinian bigotry.

We condemn the killing of three #UNIFIL peacekeepers which constitutes a grave violation of international law. All parties must respect the safety and security of UN personnel and fully comply with UNSCR 1701. Canada reaffirms its strong support for UNIFIL’s essential mandate and commends the courage of its personnel.



The Israeli official and convicted terrorist who just yesterday declared his support for a military unit that assaulted a CNN crew & killed a 78-year-old Palestinian-American is now today drinking champagne to celebrate a new law to execute Palestinians.


Marjorie Taylor Greene’s amendment does nothing to cut off offensive aid to Israel nor end the flow of US munitions being used in Gaza. Of course I voted against it. What it does do is cut off defensive Iron Dome capacities while allowing the actual bombs killing Palestinians to continue. I have long stated that I do not believe that adding to the death count of innocent victims to this war is constructive to its end. That is a simple and clear difference of opinion that has long been established. I remain focused on cutting the flow of US munitions that are being used to perpetuate the genocide in Gaza.

Pete Hegseth presents Washington's “Greater North America" concept of dominating everything from Greenland to the Panama Canal

BREAKING: 🇷🇺🇨🇺🇺🇸 Russia breaks Cuba's oil blockade Russian tanker carrying 100,000 tons of crude arrives in Cuba, awaiting unloading, Russian Transport Ministry said. In January, Trump announced that Cuba would no longer receive any oil, which has since affected supplies.

Israel has now become the first state to codify a death sentence that applies in practice to one ethnic group, while another is effectively shielded from it.




@nxt888 Vietnam also had to absorb and pay-off the debt of the former American puppet state of South Vietnam


@nxt888 Pretty uncool to try to stir up anti US hatred based on the tragic war which was bigger than your beautiful home country. Most Vietnamese have moved on. You should too, unless you just want to profit from hate.
