Al-Ahli Baptist Hospital was sheltering thousands of displaced people when it was bombed Tuesday, the Palestinian Health Ministry said in a statement. Many victims are still under the rubble, it added. Palestinian officials blamed ongoing Israeli airstrikes for the lethal incident. But the...

I didn’t expect them to. Muslim based countries understand the nuances between the different religious sects, and seem to understand the nuances between all these different infighting militias, groups, etc…. Not Qatar or Egypt or Jordan or Syria or Saudi Arabia or the UAE or any of the others…...

Potentially a corridor inside Gaza from north to south. Also a corridor from Israel to repair infrastructure inside Gaza for Gaza. Ok. Got it.

Jordan's King Abdullah on Tuesday warned against trying to push Palestinian refugees into Egypt or Jordan, adding that the humanitarian situation must to be dealt with inside Gaza and the West Bank. "That is a red line, because I think that is the plan by certain of the usual suspects to try...

Ottawa will press forward with a pair of contentious new regulations aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions, despite last Friday’s Supreme Court of Canada decision that the government overstepped its constitutional bounds with one of its existing environmental laws. The message from federal...

"It is critical that aid begins flowing into Gaza as soon as possible," Secretary of State Antony Blinken said early Tuesday morning from Israel. Blinken said the U.S. and Israel share a concern that Hamas may try to seize or destroy any aid entering Gaza. He issued a warning, "If Hamas, in...

Above, I mean, Canada’s reputation on the world stage is so low currently that who are we (we meaning a portion of Canada actually voted for the current government repeatedly) to demand anything from Israel, or Hamas, or Palestine, etc…? I’m behind, & last I heard Israel had placed Gaza...

I don’t even know what to say. Smells like people are starting to wake up & thank the deity of your choosing…. This is from last week because I’m cooking supper and I don’t have time to look it up, but it gives an idea of which way the wind is blowing for this snapshot in time. Meh, I’ll...

Amid rising Middle East tensions, the Canadian government is “demanding” a humanitarian aid corridor be opened to Gaza….??? Oh? Or else what? http://apple.news/Aw-mCZTaMQCiZflg1k0chkg Trudeau rejected demands that the Liberal government call on Israel to implement a ceasefire on Gaza where its...

Torch, do you also find fault with Hamas here, or only Israel because they’re Jews?

Liberals. ?

The Royal Canadian Mounted Police declined to pursue a criminal investigation into Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s actions during the SNC-Lavalin affair in part because the federal police force was thwarted in a bid to get confidential cabinet materials, newly released documents show. Absent...

Iran’s Foreign Ministry says that Hamas “potentially” was ready to release the nearly 200 hostages it is holding if Israel stops its campaign of airstrikes on the Gaza Strip. ***The terror group hasn’t acknowledged making such an offer.*** Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Nasser Kanaani...

Ironically, in the 36+minutes of the video, only one word, once, is ‘bleeped’ out. That’s kind of interesting all by itself….

This isn’t saying beheaded either, “just” burnt & shot & stabbed, but not beheaded. Hamas has denied its militants harmed civilians, accusing Israel and the West of spreading false reports to incite violence against Palestinians. There were no images to suggest militants had beheaded babies --...

Interesting question. Trying to find that answer, in an impartial manner (almost impossible), but I’m a couple (5) minutes into this & it’s sounds promising (?) so far: http://www.state.gov/reports/2019-report-on-international-religious-freedom/israel-west-bank-and-gaza/west-bank-and-gaza/...

Is the South African government willing to take Palestinian refugees (?) because Israel isn’t, and it doesn’t sound like Egypt is either. I have not read that Iran or Jordan or Qatar or any others are extending that offer either. Torchy, wherever you reside, is your government open to accepting...

It’s too soon to tell if the Hamas attack will end discussions between Saudi Arabia, Israel and the US on a deal to normalize relations. “An Israeli normalization deal with Saudi Arabia — the location of the two holiest sites in Islam — would be hugely symbolic and have real security benefits...

It’s truly a shitshow Goat-Rodeo with the potential to blow up into something much bigger. A friend of ours (DND) was to be transferred to East Germany for support for the Ukraine last Wednesday (so four days ago) but lost his ride (military transport) as it was needed elsewhere…. Israel's...
