We didn't vote to establish Israel. Israeli's Established Israel, we may have voted to recognize the facts on the ground, but that hardly gives us any responsibility.
How true. Canada and the rest of the world stood on the sidelines and watched Zionists commit their crimes against humanity. By the time Canada and other nations at the UN voted to partition Palestine, Zionists had already cleansed huge parts of Palestine of Palestinian civilians. How brave is it to rape, torture and murder unarmed non-Jewish farmers, dentists, firemen, housewives, schoolchildren, priests, architects... (civilians)? How does one reason with heavily armed foreigners on a mission from god to take your home, your land, your property and your future?
Instead of standing up at the UN and at least making a statement demanding justice, our government voted legitimize Zionist war crimes and crimes against humanity. To this day our leaders make statements like this:
"Our government believes in a two-state solution in a secure, democratic and prosperous Israel living beside a viable, democratic and peaceful Palestinian state."

That's not a call for justice and equality. Our leaders don't care about Palestine being secure or prosperous and their actions since Palestinians democratically elected Hamas, demonstrate what kind of a democracy Canada seeks for Palestinians.
We were as much a part of the creation of Syria as we were Israel. We also played quite active roles in Syria, Russia, China and South Africa.
Really? I can't remember Canada making statement in favor of inequality or supporting injustice and oppression in these countries. You'll have to back that statement up with proof.
You mean like China? Russia? Serbia? Most of those ethnic cleansing campaigns have been going on far longer and more effective than Israel.
Can you post a link where Canada has stated a position in favor of these activities? Can you point out examples of these countries turning millions of people into non-citizens?
Gaza isn't majority Jewish, But Xinjan sure as hell is now Majority Han and minority Uygor, in 60 short years.
Did China create a walled enclave and then forcibly relocate millions of people off their land and behind a wall? Do Uygor's have citizenship? Are the Uygor's being shot and bombed on a daily basis?
Wall in non citizens to their own homeland? Like the US is building a wall? Or do you mean the other walls nations have built to divide boundries? Plenty of them "walling in" million of their own citizens/residents. Minefields and killzones are also used alot.
The US does not occupy Mexico. Mexicans have citizenship and a right to self-determination. Mexican can travel through Mexico without passing through American military checkpoints.
Israel has, it knows and is fine with the current situation. If Palestine wants a change (ie, being independant) they really have to make it more than a stupid decision. Thus far they can't even not kill themselves, let alone support themselves.
No doubt Israel is fine with killing Palestinians and stealing their land and future. And you don't see that as a problem?
How about less focus on blowing up Israel more on building up Palestine. Its what proto-Israel did when Arab militias were murdering them in Riots prior to its independance.
The focus for the last sixty years have been on blowing up the parts of Palestine still occupied by Palestinians. Those riots were a result of Zionist taking land by force. Atrocities were committed by both sides. The difference is the murdering of Arabs never stopped.
Whine less about how hard up you are (which isn't that bad in the grande scheme) and just make things better.
