The Trudeau government will cease future arms exports to Israel even though a motion passed Monday by the House of Commons that called for such action is non-binding, says Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly.
“It is a real thing,” said Joly, speaking to the Star briefly on the morning after a majority of Liberal MPs and cabinet voted in support of a modified NDP resolution that some Jewish groups say undermines Israel’s right to defend itself against Hamas.
The controversial multi-pronged resolution sought to toughen Canada’s stance on the Middle East conflict.
Good. Fuck Bibi and the IDF.
Wait, Bibi is the Palestinian fellow, no?
No, bibi is the asshole running israel
Ahh, for some weird reason I always thought ppl referred to the Abbas fellow as “Bibi”. Perhaps it was because “Bibi” sounds Muslim where I come from?
Habibi in Arabic means “my love” which is probably where you’re getting mixed up
Naah I don’t think it’s because of the Habibi. I think it’s just that there were quite a few Muslim rulers in my country with the name “Bibi”.
To state the obvious here, Hebrew and Arab are closely related languages. Phonetically a lot of things will sound similar between Arab and Hebrew, to speakers of indoeuropean languages.
Ah. Makes sense I suppose
Benjamin “Bibi” Netanyahu.
