Burnaby City council calls for Gaza arms embargo

City News is reporting that "Burnaby became the first city in Canada to call for a full and immediate arms embargo on Israel Tuesday. City council unanimously voted to pass the motion, Advocating for Canada’s Role: Peace for the Palestinian People, which calls on Mayor Mike Hurley to advocate for establishing a full two-way arms embargo with Israel and transform the Gaza temporary resident visa (TRV) program to support the safe reunification of Gazan-Canadian families.”

People can argue City Councils have no business with international politics but this is a significant human rights concern. If it was Hitler in the holocaust, everyone would rightfully be speaking out against it. Notice this resolution is not supporting Hamas. It supports an arms embargo on both sides. 

It's interesting to note how the mainstream media's coverage of the Gaza genocide is starting to change. Today on the radio they talked about the Burnaby City council resolution but they also talked about current Jewish protests in Israel calling for an end to the war. I have never heard local mainstream media mention a word about those protests. 

Up until now they were completely censored. In the beginning of the war for the first whole year if you expressed the slightest concern about killing children and aid workers you were branded pro Hamas and antisemitic which was absurd. The mainstream media intentionally allowed this atrocity to continue without any criticism for over a year. 

Now all of a sudden the mainstream media is starting to flip and it's hard not to think there is an agenda behind it. What's happening is horrible and needs to stop. These double taps are an atrocity. Bombing civilians then bombing the emergency workers and journalists. I think the key thing is to acknowledge the Jewish protests in Israel calling for an end to the war and for Netanyahu to resign. Netanyahu has very little public support and his electronic voting is a concern for everyone. So is the UN's New World Order. Netanyahu is bad but so is the UN's agenda. Don't be fooled by the manufactured emergency.
