Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, in an attempt to draw a fallacious moral equivalency argument around the current attacks on Israel by Hamas militants; called for “de-escalation” of hostilities between the state of Israel and Hamas and the Islamic Jihad terrorist militia in Gaza. It is important to note that according to the Hamas charter, Hamas self-identifies as the Muslim Brotherhood in Israel which they refer to as Palestine, the name used prior to the British Empire leaving the region.
This false moral equivalence argument is yet another moral surrender by Trudeau to narratives pushed by terrorist organizations and their fundraising arms and state backers around the world that attempt to inject inaccurate and biased propaganda in the West. It is concerning that the Prime Minister of Canada seems to focus on being a mouthpiece to organizations whose values are in direct conflict with the very country Trudeau is tasked with securing.
The situation on the ground escalated yet again when Hamas rocket fire rained upon Israeli cities and civilian targets motivated by the perpetual victim narrative of perceived injustice. Unfortunately, in liberal western societies like Israel, eviction notices due to failure to pay rent are dealt with in Israel just as it is in the US, Canada, or all of western Europe. However, this perceived social injustice was the latest tactic utilized by Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas to obfuscate from his responsibility to call elections which should have been called in 2008 but have been repeatedly delayed.
Bowing to international pressure due to the Trump-led Abraham accords, Abbas and the Palestinian Authority were under tremendous pressure to finally call elections 16 years into a four-year term. It appears that the polls were not favouring the pseudo-dictatorship and in a direct attempt, weaponized a legal process of eviction into an intifada against Israel and promptly cancel elections in the West Bank. This was a politically savvy move as it allows the Palestinian Authority to retain power, allow for perceived justification of violence against Jews, and to bait his most extreme terrorist political opponents with Hamas and Islamic Jihad, to martyrism as they walk into the line of fire of the Israeli Defence Force.
Although all the factual context of the conflict were omitted from Trudeau’s statement and he resisted direct anti-semitic rhetoric for the time being, New Democratic Party leader (NDP) leader Jagmeet Singh permanently banned from entering India for his own links to global terrorism, ironically demanded Trudeau halt any weapon sales to Israel. Singh tactfully blamed Israel for using rockets in order to strike back against Hamas and Islamic Jihad targets in Gaza while omitting the defensive nature of the Israeli strategy.
