Vancouver Pointlessness
Via Vancouver Indy Media comes the "International Day of Action Against Occupation."
The site linked to demands (very colorfully I might add):
Oh, here's why:
Tell that to the tsunami victims who would be dead were it not for those horribly evil bastards.
So why the double standard? I guess it's much easier to criticize America and Israel for anything you want as they won't put a Fatwah on your head for it.
Why can't the organizers at least be honest about it and call the event "Selectively International Day against Israel and the US".
What hypocrisy.

SELF-DETERMINATION FOR IRAQ, PALESTINE, AFGHANISTAN, HAITI AND INDENIGENOUS NATIONS IN CANADA!I was hardly surprised to see that this so-called "International" event makes no mention of the Occupation of Syria previously reported here.
Oh, here's why:
The Governments of US/UK/ISRAEL are the AXIS OF EVIL!
