Canada 'will abide' by ICC ruling on Netanyahu
PM Trudeau says Canada must 'remember who we are' and abide ICC rulings when asked about the arrest warrant issued for Netanyahu.CTVNews
In theory, Netanyahu and Gallant won't be able to travel in any of the 124 countries that are members of the ICC without facing arrest. In practice, the US isn't a member, and others that are member will not comply (and may even retaliate against the ICC). But many countries will, so it's a major win.
The Tories introduced laws that criminalised protest to deal with the disorder they knew their policies would cause — and Labour’s refusal to repeal these laws indicates their interest in protecting that status quo.

My mother, who lived on a kibbutz in the 70s and goes to Israel every few months to be with family, just texted me "Israel will disappear". She's realizing that Bibi and the far-right aren't, after all, an anomaly.
And she's right, Israel is dying. This is one thing people don't realize enough:
“Palestine, in this sense, is a mirror—revealing the rot at the heart of American liberal politics, a rot so deep that no amount of rhetoric can cover it … The reality is that Palestine did indeed cost the Democrats the election, though not in the crude, singular way that some might imagine … in Palestine’s fate, millions have glimpsed their own—a collective understanding that their cries for change, their demands for justice, would remain unanswered.”

Liberal guilt and Palestine
Palestine did cost the Democrats the election, though not how some imagine. In Palestine’s fate millions finally understood their calls for change would remain unanswered. In this, Palestine revealed the malaise and dissonance of the American empire.Abdaljawad Omar (Mondoweiss)
MBS, Saudi crown prince and de-facto ruler, calls Israel’s actions in Gaza #Genocide. Given the close friendship between Trump, Kushner and MBS, could Netanyahu be in for a surprise? Hmm??

"I have just finished burying 11 of my cousins and sat down for a minute, only for another massacre to happen right across from where I was sitting.
Death is all around us; death is close."

"In a matter of minutes, I found 11 of my cousins killed. We had to collect their bodies in body bags and bury them in a matter of minutes—no funeral, no goodbyes"
I'm Russian living in Russia. I was 5 when Putin was 'elected'. I'm 30 now. I know that feeling of hopelessness very well. You should never surrender. Autocrats of the world are counting on you being down and depoliticized because all of this. Don't give them an easy win. Always fight, no matter how bad situation seems.
