"Canadian governments previously said they would acknowledge a Palestinian state only after a negotiated peace agreement between Israel and Palestinian leadership."

Well, let's hope #France does finally recognize #Palestine, and let's hope it does some good. And, by the way, Mr. #Carney, where's #Canada? Still afraid to do the right thing as opposed to just saying the right thing?

The UK can excuse genocide, but draws the line at festival chants A musician’s anti-IDF slogan isn’t what is making British Jews less safe. Repressing Palestine solidarity as ‘antisemitic’ is.
