Wow. So people can’t peacefully protest now? Because we might upset Israel relations…
This wasn’t a peaceful protest though. This was a crime motivated by hate according to the police …and frankly the social media posts the perpetrators made backs that up. They attacked a Canadian business that has no say or vote in Israeli politics.
Except the CEO funding the Israeli army
They did commit vandalism, but I do agree this kind of police response is way out of line for such an offense.
I’m fairly pro Israel in this conflict, but even I don’t think this vandalism was hate motivated based on what I see in the posters or what was said.
“Genocide is pretty OK” - this guy
War sucks but this war won’t end if Israel stops because Hamas(and Iran who’s funding them) has goals incompatible with peace. It will just be a genocide against Israelis instead.
Israel also has goals incompatible with peace. Hamas and Likud are partners in this crime. Unfortunately we’ve never known what happens if Israel stops considering that the illegal settlements, apartheid state, and starvation of Gaza has been ongoing for decades.
