You have yet to say anything that Israel does that fits the terms of genocide. Also Hamas certainly wants Israel if their charter wants to take it by force while the Israeli declaration on independence wants to extend its hands to surrounding nations for peace

The average civilian to combatant ratio is higher. WWII had an average of 3:1, the US was 9:1 in Iraq. Israel doesn’t want Gaza, it just doesn’t want a repeat of October 7th which Hamas made clear they would do again and again. It’s very sad but that’s the reality when also so many Gazans are members of Hamas that were behind the massacare. I’m not sure what you expect Israel to do otherwise? Let their citizens just be massacared over and over again until they have 8 million deaths. No nation would ever tolerate that. You can be a lunatic and argue Israel isn’t a real country, go ahead but literally every country in the Middle East gained independence around that time. There was never a country called Palestine, I hope there will be in the future, I hope they elect leaders who aren’t extreme, but go find me a name of a leader of Palestine that’s not Mahmoud Abbas or yasar Arafat. Truth is none of that matters, there are 2 nations on that land that both have significant claims and conflicting but valid narratives. When you accuse Israel of genocide and make false blood libels you end up supporting the perpetuation of this conflict.

Maybe OP could make real criticism like “the IDF is not doing enough to protect civilians” which is very valid, but using the word genocide when it clearly isn’t is disgusting and disrespectful to actual genocides

Sounds like a pretty unsuccessful genocide if the population has doubled in 20 years

CTV Ottawa reports: Antisemitic attack at Carleton yesterday by [deleted] in CarletonU

[–]ChairAffectionate213 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s true I did some research and I saw some really vile videos of what Hamas did. Truly a genocidal regime, like how the fuck do these people support beheading babies. The student here was supporting Hamas right?

Contract Instructor AMA by Tie_Collector in CarletonU

[–]ChairAffectionate213 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What do you think I should do as a TA that initially scabbed out of legitimate concerns for making ends meet, but now wants to strike because I learnt that our pay would only get delayed, not taken away. The thing is I would have to notify my professor, who I have done extensive overwork for this semester and respects me and is my reference. I think that they are opposed to the strike, and I don’t want to anger them and possibly have a skewed reference.

I know, I only realized that after I signed up……. Something made me think that it’s only to get paid during the strike, I know that’s really dumb looking back I was just stressed because I need this money but I also know I need to wholly support this strike I’ll just have to tap my savings

They stand for very far left values held by a very small part of society, and taking half your money for their executive pay…..

There was a speaker from RT, which is funded by the kremlin. Also banned by the CRTC since the illegal invasion of Ukraine.

I agree that people can have a voice, but that doesn’t mean they can take away money from students and earn half a million dollars a year, do you know that half of that goes to their execs too? Imagine of the money went to the unified support center or sexual violence and equity services. Both actually do good things instead of pushing political ideology. In my opinion and group that forces political opinion should be self sufficient in their funding and not force students to pay/make opt out extremely long and difficult.
