Israel must be held to account for its war crimes

The Richmond Hill branch of Rich Kids of Tehran celebrated the downing of PS 752 today. In a display of their political shlepp, they had a bevy of political heavyweights on hand for the occasion, including top dog Chrystia Freeland and her sidekick PM Fluffy. As you may recall, the PS 752 tragedy unfolded in the wake of Trump’s assassination of the Iranian General Soleimani a few days prior. Iran was literally on a war footing, and for good reason. In the fog of war, shit happens, and 176 people died. PM Fluffy vowed his government would explore avenues to get the Iranian Republican Guards on our country’s “Terror List.” Right away you know he’s blowing smoke. If he were serious, he’d just declare them to be on the list. No “exploration of avenues” required. But he’s not serious. He’s just trying to mollify the Iranian-Canadian community. The Rich Kids of Tehran will settle for nothing less. That’s why Canada, in concert with fellow American Empire suck-ups Sweden, Ukraine, and UK, filed a complaint with the International Court of Justice last summer. Tehran must pay for those 176 innocent lives! The Poor Kids of Palestine, on the other hand, don’t seem to have any shlepp at all. I watched the news conference where Bibi and Gallant laid out their plans to commit genocide on the people of Gaza. Al Jazeera had it on live. They promised a “mighty vengeance.” They promised to withhold food, water, and power from Gaza. If that’s not a declaration of genocide, what is? They’ve delivered! Over 23,000 dead Palestinians in a mere 95 days! Mostly women and children. Where is PM Fluffy’s “feminist foreign policy?” Where is Roxworthy’s “responsibility to protect?” Canada is pursuing a case against Iran at the ICJ because of 176 deaths in a plane crash four years ago. The IDF has been killing Palestinians at the rate of 242 per day, every day, for 95 days in a row. Why are we not referring Israel’s IDF to the ICJ?
