The last five years have shown how little organizations like the UN matter. The NDP is daydreaming here. Get serious.
You mean the last five years during which, the WHO, a major UN agency played a key role in coordinating the international response to a global pandemic?
Or the last five years during which the WFP, another major UN agency has prevented starvation for millions of people, in places like Sudan and Yemen, and was instrumental in the Ukraine Grain deal?
Or are you talking about the UNCHR, aiding about 120 million refugees? Or maybe UNICEF, that manages the immunization of nearly half of all human children?
Is the UN perfect? No. Would the world be better without it? Fuck no.
If daydreaming is what keeps the world from turning into a hellscape, well daydream on brother.
UN failed it first test with israel ethrnic cleansing of Palestinians. Un did never matter when it comes to respecting international laws
UN started failing way before that
You are right.
Perhaps Russia is now justified in doing whatever it wants, does that mean we stop hearing people like Carney call out "Russia's illegal war on Ukraine" when we dont stand by international law ourselves?
I'd guess things like tariffs from the country holding the world reserve currency are also now justified, even though it causes crisis in countries that utilize it for global trade. Everyone gets to just do whatever benefits them and we stop attempting to harmonize or maintain some semblance of law and order as we embrace economic nihilism.
Justified? justification has nothing to do with it. what carney said was true, the large countrys rule, middle powers dont . thats what everyone doing, they're choosing not to stick they're necks out for some religious state trying to build nukes and fund terror orgs. that doesn't mean he isnt trying to set up middle powers networks. i feel like everyones lost the plot these days.
He continue to deny the genocide in gaza and allow the selling of occupied land in synaguoges and idf soldiers tslking in school. He is a profesional bullshitter

sound more like has avoiding a fight with isreal
Singh confronted him in the election debate he refused to acknowledge it . He don't want to so he don't have to take even more actions against Israeli terrorism and settler colonialism
Canada signed the Geneva and genocide convention your stupid excuses don't matter. He has the obligation to support Palestinians not Israel
sounds like more avoiding the issue that he doesn't want to get involved, just like every other political matter people like you try to get him swept up in, grow up you insipid child, this is not our fight and thats clearly that stance hes taking.
fuck getting involved in religous conflicts, you go over and help them if your so inclined keyboard warrior.
Get lost genocide supporter and Carney dick sucker
see now your crying about it.
you have no argument, because your stupid and think with your emotions.
And no, you said I supported genocide be I didn't agree with you, your just making shit up to save your ego.
Lol you are the one who started with the insult you are the one who is dumb and think with his emotions
Was his speech meant as an endorsement to that?
=.= his davos speech yes, if your talking about the Iran one. no, kind of. he basically talked for a minute or 2 about a bunch of the bad stuff Iran did, he specifically said he approved of the us destroying the nuclear sites but thats all he really said on the matter. he was in the middle of talks on trade with india so its clear hes perusing the middle power network. this all seems like smoke.
