The diplomatic and conceptual support of Israel's occupation of Palestine is the pretense that Israel and Palestine have a symmetric relationship.
Israel has ordered a whole village of Israeli Arabs to move so that it can settle Jews there.
Another Bedouin village in Israel has been demolished 83 times; each time, the inhabitants rebuild. Now they have been ordered to pay for the demolitions, which they can't possibly do.
This is like the fines for being jailed that keep poor people in Ferguson (and cities across the US) down.
Israel is contemplating attacking Hezbollah again, and has prepared its excuse to for killing and wounding lots of civilians.
The proffered grounds for the war are that Hezbollah has got more arms. Would it be legitimate for Hezbollah to attack Israel because Israel has more arms now? I don't think this excuse is valid in either direction.
Global heating's heat waves won't kill a lot of people directly in temperate zones.
That doesn't mean you should feel safe. Poverty kills a lot more people than heat waves.
As Israel explicitly rejects peace, and tolerates advocacy of genocide against Palestinians, Canada says it will have "zero tolerance" for pressure on Israel.
