After Israel slaughtered several Al Jazeera journalists, I asked the foreign affairs minister's office whether Canada intends to take action.
Their response made me, as a journalist, feel sick.
They pointed me to a tweet repost. One with a grammatical error.

For months, they say, they were beaten by prison guards, shot with pellets, deprived of adequate medical care and denied any due process inside El Salvador’s Center for Terrorism Confinement.

Are you wondering about Sharia because of recent events? Maybe you'd like to read a novel that's set in a Sharia compliant Muslim Matriarchy? "Under The Full and Crescent Moon" is my speculative take on history that has a young woman writing fatwas to fight the patriarchy! Coming this fall!

I am going to be consistent with my moral principles. Any injury or death to a non-combatant or civilian is unjustifiable.
Does Israel hide military sites in the middle of cities? Yes, but that doesn't justify anything, human shield arguments are morally bankrupt.

He’s been on the ground in Gaza before — and his testimony is vital in the face of this genocide.

Israel's attack on Iran, yet another demonstration of its contempt for international law, was also a smokescreen for yet another step in the ethnic cleansing and annexation of the West Bank. Israel is laughing in the face of the West's fake support of the 2 state solution

Thread #Iran - #Israel:
When a nation like Israel repeatedly violates IHL and ICL with complete impunity, and is continually supplied with weapons, intelligence, and political cover by powerful states, it is not surprising when it escalates military action and commits further violations in Iran.
