GAZA STRIP: Famine Review Committee Alert | IPC - Integrated Food Security Phase Classification : r/UnitedNations - "Breaking - EMERGENCY: Gaza is 4 months away from almost imminently about to be on the verge of the food scarcity which would qualify them for pre-famine levels of hunger!!!!!"
"On the brink of a massive famine for 1 year straight. Is the famine in the room with us?"

GAZA STRIP: Famine Review Committee Alert | IPC - Integrated Food Security Phase Classification : r/ZZZionism - "Famine has been “imminent” for like 400 days. Starting to think the UN doesn’t know what that word means... If you called it imminent in November 2023 and you are still calling it imminent in November of 2024, you had to be wrong at least one of those times. Either it’s imminent now which means it was very far from being imminent a year ago or it was imminent then. In which case it’s already happening now? So it’s no longer imminent? They can’t be right for a whole year by predicting something is about to happen but has yet to"
Netanyahu in Gaza: 'Hamas will no longer control Gaza, we will pursue and defeat them' : r/worldnews - "Israel didn't prop them up. Israel allowed Qatar to send them money to improve Gaza's economy. That was an attempt by Israel to reduce tensions and lead towards peace with Hamas, which is what everyone claims they want. Israel was just doing what the whole world wanted it to do: make peace with Hamas. Hamas had been sending out indicators that it wanted to cool things down while secretly planning Oct. 7. Instead of using the Qatari money to build the economy and public infrastructure, they used it to buy weapons and build tunnels. Israel tried to make peace and all it got in return was Oct. 7."
Netanyahu in Gaza: 'Hamas will no longer control Gaza, we will pursue and defeat them' : r/worldnews - "It’s not that they did not know Hamas could enact something like Oct 7th, it’s that they didn’t believe Hamas would choose to willingly abandon its rule over Gaza - because such an attack would be suicide for Hamas as a government of Gaza. The Israeli security apparatus didn’t believe they’d throw it all away like they did."
Post-election over, Team Biden is SLAMMING a bogus claim of Gaza famine - "Team Biden is slamming a report that warns of famine in northern Gaza. What a difference an election makes... “Israel’s near-total blockade of humanitarian and commercial food supplies” has triggered mass starvation in northern Gaza, FEWS Net preached — fresh fodder for Israel-haters to sling unhinged accusations about the Jewish state perpetrating “genocide.” Sorry, there’s no “near-total blockade,” and never has been. Nor, per Israeli and UN estimates, are there 65,000 people in northern Gaza (let alone starving ones) but less than 15,000. The FEWS NET alert “relies on outdated population estimates, and has methodological limitations based on the availability of data,” a US Agency for International Development spokesman said. “At a time when inaccurate information is causing confusion and accusations, it is irresponsible to issue a report like this,” Ambassador to Israel Jack Lew fumed. That’s been true before, too: Another FEWS Net report this year similarly raised famine alarms, based on numbers that also turned out to be garbage. Yet the Biden-Harris folks — with an eye on pro-Hamas voters — nonetheless ranted about Israel’s “over-the-top” response to Hamas’ war... Indeed, in a last-minute bid for the anti-Israel vote just before the election, Team Biden threatened to halt yet more weapons shipments to Israel if the IDF didn’t let in more aid. Such threats only further embolden Hamas, Iran and Israel’s other enemies. Gazans caught in a war inevitably will find it hard to find food, especially since Hamas regularly steals aid shipments, and relief groups aren’t even willing to assign drivers to deliver the shipments, fearing they’ll be attacked and robbed by the terrorists or criminals. Yet the answer isn’t to blast Israel and demand it end its efforts to eliminate Hamas, as President Biden and Veep Kamala Harris did all year. The answer’s to help Israel eliminate the terrorists as quickly as possible. Indeed, if Team Biden had called out the phony reports of famine and “genocide” from the start, and fully backed Israel’s defensive war, the fighting might well have ended by now. On the bright side: A new administration takes office next month, and Washington will stop trying to make nice with Israel’s enemies, including their propaganda wings."
Israeli siege has placed Gazans at risk of starvation − prewar policies made them vulnerable in the first place

Amira Elghawaby on X - "Today's long overdue announcement of a ceasefire in Gaza is bittersweet for those who have been witnessing the unimaginable violence and war inflicted on innocent women, men, and helpless children. For over a year, 🇨🇦Canadian Palestinians frantically watched the dehumanization of their loved ones; the endless justifications for the killings, devastating hunger, and the sheer brutality inflicted on their people. This announcement, which includes urgent humanitarian aid and the return of hostages, is no doubt a relief that this current nightmare may finally be ending. Through it all, Canadians of all backgrounds did not give up exercising their civil liberties to push for a ceasefire, even though many faced Islamophobia, anti-Palestinian and anti-Arab racism in their schools, universities, workplaces, and in the public sphere for doing so. These communities are cautiously hoping for a lasting, just peace - where international humanitarian law is upheld for all and Palestine 🇵🇸 is free. Now more than ever, the time for unity and healing as a collective is crucial.🕊️"

How Montreal became the antisemitism capital of North America - "According to the Toronto Sun, in the last year, Montreal has endured the most antisemitic hate crimes of any city in North America. Indeed, since the October 7, 2023, Hamas massacre in Israel, antisemitic incidents in Canada have increased by an astounding 670%. Canadian Jews — a miniscule 1.4% of the nation’s population — were the victims of 70% of religion-based hate crimes during roughly the same period. Jewish schools in Montreal have been shot at, and Montreal universities, including my home university of Concordia, have become cesspools of anti-Jewish harassment. As a Jewish professor who has weighed in publicly on these difficulties, the situation has gotten so precarious that I have taken an unpaid leave from Concordia University and joined Northwood University in Michigan... Montreal was rocked by violent protests laden with antisemitic overtones. Aggressive agitators shattered shop windows, tossed smoke bombs and torched cars. An owner of a Second Cup Café franchise, ironically located at Montreal’s Jewish General Hospital, was caught on camera expressing genocidal hate of the Jews. Where is all of this Jew-hatred coming from? Currently, the three key sources of Jew-hatred are Islamic-based hate, ultra-right neo-Nazi types and the academic left, which promulgates the narrative that Jews are the brutal colonizers of the otherwise peace-loving Palestinians. Within the Montreal ecosystem, the neo-Nazi dynamic is less prevalent, but the other two sources have been on overdrive for decades. The Quebec government has long fretted about protecting its French linguistic heritage. As a result, it has opened the borders to hundreds of thousands of immigrants from French-speaking Islamic nations who might otherwise not share the secular and liberal values that define Quebec society, and who hail from societies defined by ubiquitous Jew-hatred. As long as the conquerors speak French, the eventual erasure of the host society will surely be painless. The adage “Demography is destiny” is true for a reason. The prime minister of Canada, Justin Trudeau, is from Montreal. He is the product of a deeply progressive educational ecosystem that promotes postmodernism, radical feminism, a commitment to DEI and cultural relativism. When he was still a mere member of Parliament, Trudeau famously became enraged that cultural practices such as honor killings were labeled barbaric by the then-conservative government of Canada led by Stephen Harper. The barbaric acts did not shock him. Calling them “barbaric” is what drew his ire. Trudeau’s desire to exhibit Islamophilic tendencies is so pronounced that whenever a grave antisemitic incident takes place, he is quick to remind us that we must combat Islamophobia (such as he did after shots were fired at a pair of Jewish schools in Montreal last year). But it’s actually antisemitism that is running rampant across Montreal, a city now filled with intimidating protests against “Zionism.” These are taking place on campuses, on the streets, across from synagogues, and in shopping malls. Everywhere you turn, masked individuals wearing keffiyehs can be seen uttering the usual chants of “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” and “Globalize the intifada.” Montreal Mayor Valerie Plante did not think that the protests from this past week were antisemitic, condemning them instead as “pro-Palestinian” and “anti-NATO.” A senior administrator at Concordia recently told me that there was no Jew-hatred despite the fact that university president Graham Carr testified on Parliament Hill about the endemic Jew-hatred on campus. Ignoring the problem is not going to cause it to go away. Incidentally, as the city was burning last week, Trudeau was unable to address the violence because he was busy attending a Taylor Swift concert. Meanwhile, this past Sunday, a Montreal rabbi was asked to leave the downtown area as his open Jewishness (he was wearing a kippah) might be viewed as provocative. This is the reality that I grew up with in Lebanon: “Please don’t flaunt your Jewishness. It might incite violence.” Unchecked immigration from societies endemically hostile to Jews — along with a weak host society infested by ideological rapture — create the perfect mix for Jew-hatred to flourish in an ecosystem of cowardice and apathy. The United States dodged an immeasurable existential bullet by electing Donald Trump. Had Kamala Harris won (she also grew up in Montreal), the United States would have headed down the path of many European countries and Canada, namely an increasingly dangerous environment for Jews. Do not make the mistakes that we have made in Canada... In the Middle East, there is an old expression, “First the Saturday people, then the Sunday people” (or a variant such as “After Saturday comes Sunday”) — namely that the Jews might be the first to be targeted, but Christians are inevitably next."
"That should be a lesson for all of us. There is no negotiation with terrorists. Defeat them so thoroughly that they can no longer pose a credible threat. It's what we did to ISIS, it's what Israel is doing to Hamas, and if we have any long term strategic sense at all, it's what we will do to Iran in the next four years. Overwhelming force is the only language they understand."
Terrorism supporters keep claiming that Israel funded Hamas, which is their very poor misunderstanding of the reality described here
From February 2024
From 2021
From 2023
From 2020. It's so lucky that Israel is causing "imminent" "famine" in Gaza, because if they were to give them more food, they would be accused by the "anti-Zionists" of trying to fatten them to death

Sean Speer on X - "It ought to be shocking that this taxpayer-funded activist cannot bring herself to condemn Hamas for starting the war or even refer to the Israeli hostages who've suffered for past 15 months. But of course it is not. Firing her will be among the most straightforward ways to save $1M per year for a future Conservative government."
Nothing on the rampant anti-Semitism, of course. Because that would be Islamophobic
He's clearly unbiased and the anti-Zionists are just spreading lies as usual
Clearly these are victims of "genocide" and have done nothing to arouse any suspicion, much less face any sanction
Of course, if you throw these thugs out, that will be a grave threat to academic freedom and freedom of speech
1. Gaza is a profoundly sick society, deeply entrenched in radicalization. Undoing this will require decades of comprehensive efforts, and even then, success is far from guaranteed.
2. For 15 months, they have been fed blatant lies about "genocide" and "famine." They have been systematically deceived.
3. Hamas cannot be allowed to play any role in governing Gaza after the war and must cease to exist as a functional entity.
Anyone who refuses to acknowledge these realities needs to take a good hard look at their moral compass—and fast."
Israel is to blame for Palestinian bloodlust because its very existence is an offence to anti-Semites
Palestinians 0.009 seconds after the ceasefire agreement signed: WE WON! WE LOVE HAMAS! We will destroy Israel!
That's not how the Tutsi or the Jews reacted after their genocides ended. World, you've been duped once again, and the Palestinians will continue to outsource their responsibility for their lives onto you."
