Title: Loonie Left's Double Standards With Anti-Israel Protests
Post by: Anonymous on July 26, 2014, 03:17:42 PM
Big fucking surprise. The Left ignores Boko Haram and ISIS crimes against humanity, but is outraged about the Gaza conflict. How fucking predictable. :roll:  
QuoteAh, so this is what it takes to get Canadian protesters to really take to the streets over Middle East turmoil.



For a while there, one had good reason to worry we'd lost our edge. A couple of international events saw hundreds, thousands of civilians killed around the world and the marches were few.



Remember last month there was non-stop news coverage about Iraq and Syria?



Western nations have poured many resources into the region over the years trying to create stability. While it's clear we botched a lot of it up, it's still alarming to see the rise of ISIS in Iraq and Syria.



They want to impose their strict view of Islam all over the region. They've got the GPS set to world domination and you better not get in their way.



They've held Mosul, Iraq's second biggest city, for over a month now. So they're feeling quite emboldened. What does this mean for the regular Iraqi?



Well, rape is on the rise. Kidnapping is on the rise. According to a United Nations report, in just a couple of weeks in June ISIS killed more than 1,000 Iraqi civilians and wounded another thousand.



This is not an easily contained situation. It could greatly expand. And with it expands the harm to civilians.



Yet few Canadians have taken to the streets over this. The only reported anti-ISIS protest was a Shia group in Calgary (ISIS is Sunni). Strange given that we consider ourselves citizens of the world and tend to protest every chance we get.



Canadian Muslims haven't been rising up to oppose this use of their religion to slaughter thousands and impose harsh, misogynistic laws against millions.



Likewise the militant uprising in Nigeria. Relative silence. No critical mass mobilization. Although to be fair, a few humble tweets were lobbed in the direction of Boko Haram when the Islamist group kidnapped 300 girls to sell into slavery. So people over here at least blinked.



The other weekend a further installation of SlutWalk took place in Toronto and they certainly didn't focus on the true patriarchies out there – groups like ISIS and Boko Haram.



They were too fixated on protesting the fact that three years ago a cop at York University said something stupid – which is really just an affliction that happens to everyone who steps foot on the York campus.



But fear not. Canadians haven't lost the protest vibe. Now that the ongoing turmoil in Israel has come out of hibernation once again, many are taking to the streets. Pro-Palestinian activists have marched in Paris, Berlin, Vienna, Amsterdam and all across Europe.



In Calgary, pro-Palestinian protesters assaulted a pro-Israel family. One Toronto protester told Sun News "I am so shameful to be called a Canadian."



So what's going on here? Why don't the people willing to assault their fellow Canadians on the street over Israel seemingly not care about worse headline grabbers around the world?



Gaza has 2 million people; Israel 8 million. Iraq and Syria combined have a population of 55 million.



Israel and the Palestinian territories cover some 16,000 square kilometres. Iraq and Syria? Over 600,000 sq. km.



Is it the civilian body count? Is it the human rights angle? Is it the amount of land involved? Is it the respective populations? Can't be any of these. Because if it were, they'd be out in much larger numbers against ISIS and the like.



Is it irrational religious rage? Racism? Well, those are out of the question because they're just so un-Canadian.



Strange. Guess we'll have to chalk this up as one of life's great mysteries.

Western leftists are for the most part hypocritical blowhards. Protesting against Israel's "crimes" while ignoring the barbarity of Bok Haram, Hamas or ISIS is proof of that.

I think Israel's actions at times have seemed excessive. That is not to say that if the North was storming down rockets on Korea, the  Korean conflict would not resume immediately. You can be sure there would a certain response. I would be more than a little ticked if I saw anti-Korean protests across North America while not doing the same about the North's actions.

 

Without taking sides in this conflict, I can see where the op's link would scream double standards.

QuoteGaza's Christians bury their first casualty of the war



Jalila Ayyad's widower George still had a black eye and bloodstains on his shirt as he processed ahead of her coffin, hours after the air strike that destroyed their home.



Jalila, 60, was the first Christian casualty of a bloody Gaza war.



She is also survived by two sons, but one could not be at her funeral because he is in hospital with serious wounds suffered in Sunday afternoon's Israeli strike.



The simple coffin -- white with a black cross -- was carried reverently down the marble stairs of the cemetery, and into the chapel of the Saint Porphyrius Greek Orthodox church in Gaza City.



"She died under the rubble," said Jalila's nephew, Fuad Ayyad.



"Both her legs were crushed after the house collapsed with her, her husband and son inside."



An Orthodox priest in a black gown read passages from the Bible and swung an incense receptacle, as the coffin was set down beneath an ornate ceiling of gold leaf images of saints, their names written in Arabic and Greek.



An icon of the Virgin Mary was placed upon Jalila's coffin, and some two dozen relatives sang "Hallelujah" as the afternoon call to prayer rose from the minaret of the adjacent mosque.



Her funeral was a sombre and respectful affair, but momentarily took on a political dimension when one member of the parish picked up a microphone and railed against Israel's bombardment of the small Palestinian coastal territory.



"This Palestinian Arab Christian woman died in shelling by the Israeli occupation," the speaker shouted angrily.



"There are massacres here every day. This is what happens to the Palestinian people. Where's the world, where's the international community in all this?"



"The bombs hit and kill -- they don't discriminate between civilian or militant," he said.



//http://news.yahoo.com/gazas-christians-bury-first-casualty-war-031707490.html

Anyone wish to call these Christians "defenders of Islam"?

Quote'No more deaths': Thousands of Israelis protest the Gaza war



Some 5,000 Israelis on Saturday evening protested the war in Gaza under the banner, "No more deaths – Israeli-Palestinian peace, now." The protest took place at Rabin Square in central Tel Aviv.



Speakers included Hadash MK Dov Khenin, an Israeli and Palestinian veteran from the organization Combatants for Peace, and Yifat Solel, the head of the Meretz party's anti-occupation forum. Meretz, however, did not back the demonstration as a party. Ben Kfir of the Parents' Circle, whose daughter was killed in a Hamas suicide bombing in 2003, also spoke, refuting the government's claim that there is no partner for peace among the Palestinians. The speakers criticized the government for its attitude toward peace negotiations, and for resorting to war as a default policy. Demonstrators chanted "Jews and Arabs refuse to be enemies," called for an end to the occupation and the siege on Gaza, and lit candles to commemorate the victims.



Roughly 300 right-wing counter-protesters were on the scene trying to reach the main demonstration, audibly chanting "Death to Arabs" while Sulaiman Khatib, co-founder of Combatants for Peace, spoke. A large police presence circled the square in order to keep the sides separate.



Soon after the demonstration dispersed, counter-protesters began following the demonstrators home. Verbal attacks turned physically violent; one anti-war demonstrator was beaten with a metal rod and required stitches, and two were attacked with pepper spray.

cc, maybe you can explain to me what was so terrible in their message.  It is reported as the following:



Several thousand left-wing activists gathered in Tel Aviv's Rabin Square on Saturday evening, calling for an end to bloodshed in the Gaza Strip and a return to negotiations with the Palestinians. Slogans chanted by the protesters included "Stop the war," "Bring the soldiers back home" and "Jews and Arabs refuse to be enemies," Channel 2 reported.

...

Ahead of the event, the rally's organizers said on its Facebook page: "In the face of the war which is taking a heavy, bloody toll of dead and injured on both sides, of destruction and terror, of bombings and rockets, we will stand and demand: End the war now!



"Instead of being dragged again and again into more wars and more military operations, it is now time to lead a path of discourse and a diplomatic agreement. There is a diplomatic solution. What price will we pay — we, the residents of the south and the rest of Israel, and the residents of Gaza and the West Bank – until we come to it?"




Also, if "several hundred right-wing activists held a counter-rally at the scene" does that mean they don't want to see the above highlighted?

Are you in favor of leaving rockets in Hamas hands? ... rockets they WILL use in the future unless destroyed

Are you in favor of leaving the tunnels dug to kill and kidnap civilians? ... tunnels they WILL use in the future unless destroyed



If so, then I suppose ending the cleanup would seem logical.



If one is not in favor of that, destroying as much of Hamas as possible would be logical.



If one knows even a tiny bit of what Hamas stands for and its openly EXPRESSED religious / ideological intention to exterminate Israelis (not to mention all other non-believers)  they would know that
Quote"There is a diplomatic solution"
is ludicrous ... no .... suicidal[/i]
Quote"Instead of being dragged again and again into more wars and more military operations, it is now time to lead a path of discourse and a diplomatic agreement.
Instead of being dragged again and again into more wars and more military operations, it is now time to stop Hamas once and for all .... otherwise they will just continue as before .. and Israel will be "dragged again and again into more wars and more military operations" .



The past years has seen Hamas amassing rockets and digging tunnels (not to mention indoctrinating their kiddies into another generation of raw hate)  ... rockets to shoot at civilians  ... tunnels to attack and kidnap civilians.



Does anyone actually think they will have an "awakening" and suddenly stop? Whatever would make anyone think they will stop their kranny-driven obsession .. when it is the very foundation of their Muslim Brotherhood and the one thing they say matters to them?

RW,

I am not protesting the actions of either side in this conflict. Israel does not want senseless destruction unlike their opponents. I am pointing what many other people around the world have pointed out and that is how ridiculously hypocritical it is to single out Israel as a bully while keeping their mouths zipped about Israel's enemies who are much more violent. Such people have zero credibility.

In my church, the pastoral staff and deacons have taken a one sided stance too in favour of Israel..



We pray for Israel's leaders and their success and that casualties are low, but we don't pray for the leadership of the other side..



Yes, I noticed more actions critical of Israel than the other side here in Calgary..



But, among Christians the opposite is true..



I can understand  Shen Li and cc li tarte getting annoyed with the bias they see because I see it too, but in reverse among Christians.
