Carney's announcement to recognize a state of Palestine in September most ill-conceived imaginable.

We're not paying the price for having been instrumental in seeing to it that Jews were deposited in Palestine, Palestinians are

 

Why would we. The two groups still absolutely have the choice of whether or not they were going to work together to build something. To find a way to live in peace. And it's hardly our fault that the Palestinians decided that they weren't okay with that

And the Palestinians today aren't paying anything from 1948. They're paying for their decision on October 7th 2023. And seeing as they were the ones that made that decision it is appropriate that they pay for it

They had every opportunity to choose peace and prosperity and make a great life for themselves and they chose to launch a war of aggression without cause or warning that is basically resulted in the destruction of their world and is certainly likely to end any freedoms that they had. It will either be scattered to the wind or occupied for the rest of time. That was their own choice

To try and repair the damage and reset things on a different path. But that would be like doing something about climate change..ain't going to happen.

So we'll pay for it with an increasingly divided and dysfunctional world instead.

The damage is 100% the responsibility of and the fault of the people living there, almost exclusively the Palestinians. And further any reset would have to be initiated by them.

It's 100% their choice it's got absolutely nothing to do with us. It would be like trying to blame a marriage that failed 10 years after a couple moved into a new home on the taxi driver who drove them there

The Palestinians at every opportunity to repair the damage, reset things on a different path, and choose peace and prosperity and they aren't interested. I think they should have made another decision, but you can't force that on people

It is bizarre.

Giving pause to consider that stealing land might be what leads to terrorism is something you've never even tried is it?

It's so bizarre it's phenomenal.

Is it when they been in conflict since 1948, and still no end in sight, pushing them off the land seems like a the only solution...and yet Israel has returned stolen land in the past in hopes of peace, no mention of those acts ...

How do you explain all the terrorism coming out of Gaza where no lands have been stolen...And Hamas has total control over that district...i know bizarre right...

So those who say it is the world's largest prison are correct. 

So all the land they are stealing belongs to terrorists? 

Maintaining all Palestinians are terrostists is as stupid as saying all Jews are Zionists.

They have the sea, or are you saying Egypt and Israel should allow them in and out whenever they want, what ever happened to sovereignty...or is that for everyone else except these two country's...The fact that Palestinian don't have a very good reputation in either country is the major problem , And there still is the sea, how did we get so many palestinian here in Canada, Europe and elsewhere must be a way out or it is the least secure prison in history...

There is no stealing of land in Gaza, to which Hamas controls, the Palestinian authority is in control of the west bank, thats where the stealing is occurring ...

I don't recall calling them all terrorist, all those in the Hamas ,or the palestinian authority are terrorist, everyone that voted those people in are terrorist supporters....those that sit on their ass and just live with this terrorist regimes are terrorist supporters...

Between aiding and legitimizing Hamas terrorists, or 51st. Those are your choices on the 2025 bingo card.

It's only going to get worse, more divided as we approach demographic tipping points across the West.

Yup, things are leaning over just about everywhere you look around the planet.

And we haven't seen anything yet.

we did something about climate change. We did exactly what you demanded about climate change. For 10 years.

Maybe if you hadn't lied to people about the whole thing for 10 years there'd still be support.

I'm sorry we couldn't do better at raising the alarm. Our bad for sure.

Oh well, practice makes perfect.

Give it another 10 years, you'll see.

but you did great at raising the alarm. At the time you basically could have gotten away with just about anything, they imposed an expensive new tax that people supported. There were a bunch of other things that wound up hurting people that they tolerated because they thought it was going to fix climate change. The public supported initiatives even if they were painful.

The problem is nothing that was done made the slightest difference to climate change. And now people realize there's nothing they can do and that all of the pain that they went through was completely pointless other than to help line the pockets of the liberals and allow the NDP in British Columbia to overspend

I don't think the Publix going to be that interested that quickly. Even carney, who wrote entire books on the subject. Seems to be pretty much abandoning climate change is an issue other than a little bit of lip service here and there

That's especially so with the religious migrants, most especially Muslims. They're okay with being meek when their numbers are tiny. The greater their numbers, the more strength they feel, the more they make demands for society to change to their way of liking. 

Muslims all over the world come to the West, fleeing the shitholes they came from, and then demand the West become more like the shitholes they came from. Indians and Sikhs are less rabid but just as chauvinistic, at least the current waves. Neither group has any interest in integrating.

The climate change thing is a farce.

First, they never say how much it will cost.
Second, they never say what they expect to get from it.
Because the answer to the first is two trillion dollars, and the answer to the second is nothing whatsoever.  No discernible difference in world CO2 emissions. But hey, we'll get to puff out our chests and virtue signal about our noble efforts.
