Settler violence, humanitarian crisis

Alright doomers, come out of the woodwork and explain to me how this is "bad"

[–] garbagebagel@lemmy.world 11 points 3 months ago

It's good but it's insufficient. For example, the Canadian government is still allowing loopholes to provide arms to Israel and allowing funding through Canadian charities.

It's just kind of weird to continue to fund the Israeli government while offering pennies to Palestinian people.

Not "bad," but barely a proper start - so maybe "insufficient."

It's not bad, it's good. I would say, maybe we should stop doing business with the state responsible for the ongoing crisis, if only to maybe save ourselves from having to commit another $100M down the line.

That is more like it, the couple million in to a fund from last week was a start but felt a little inadequate.

[–] rozodru@piefed.world 10 points 3 months ago (1 children)

still pretty low considering we've spent hundreds of millions more on 6 world cup matches.

Strange how the most popular sport in the world needs government handouts.

Money is great, but sanctions to prevent genocide is better, saves money, and penalizes the apartheid ethnostate.
