Doesn't seem likely now.
Religion has guided mans morals for centuries. Men have twisted religion for their own purposed just as long. Canada is what a Godless society looks like. Circling the drain, calling evil good and calling good men and women evil.

You are not anyone’s mother, so quit acting like it.

For goodness sake, it is a thread on an utterly disturbing day, accompanied by some of the most vile images imaginable, which has now turned into a war in the religious center of the world. It caused a very senior member to ask an honest to goodness question to which another member gives an honest answer.

SMH

I’m quite sure all the mods realize that this is disturbing, but also a war that revolves around religion.

So are you in favour of limiting speech?

Cuz, I’m sure most sane people have had enough of that for a lifetime.

Man has fought since the beginning for many reasons religion or not there will always be disputes.

Hate to say it but we are an ignorant species that will always be at war. But really this is the nature of most if not all fight to settle disputes. The intensity may vary and we use more advanced weapons do to human intelligence. Right or wrong it seems to be part of every species nature

In the end we are just another animal even if we have more complex thoughts

Since the year 2000 i thought the world was calming down from war except for a few extremist and of course the no news wars in Africa that never stop and we never hear of. Soviet Union was broke up and Russia was supposedly a democracy. Middle East had it flare ups but Egypt, Saudi ect were not directly fighting with Israel (probably indirectly fighting)
Looking more closely at it nothing has really changed Russia will probably be an enemy now Middle East is starting again.
I don’t think people will ever change. Thousand year old hatred competition between countries and governments. It’s a actually quite sad we got some fast computers and planes but the humans race itself has made little progress

Now that it appears that Hamas is holding foreign citizens as hostages, we will see how their home countries react to their citizens being held , and possibly mistreated.

I will limit what I say because I don’t know what I’m talking about.

They attacked civilians and tourists. Is that ok?

Question of the day. Can the US afford to support both Israel and Ukraine militarily , which it's what it's going to down to, simultaneously ?

Neither Israel or Hamas have ever been terribly concerned about collateral damage.

Great article pointing out the Canadian progressive left glee over the attacks.

https://nationalpost.com/opinion/can...ate-israel-war

Murder of innocent civilians should never be celebrated.

Pretty sure Hamas isn't a signatory to the Geneva Convention.

Fireworks and celebrations in Iran. The Russian propaganda news is already claiming some of the weapons used by Hamas came from Afghanistan and Ukraine.

It’s always going to be hard to sort out fact from fiction.

Likely weapons via Wagner are moving all over the world. It seems like weapons are being used up faster than they arrive in Ukraine. As for Afghanistan, the Taliban took over the abandoned U.S. assets. The Taliban are battling insurgents and I think it unlikely they’d give valued weapons away.

Reading up on all the sites, it’s sounds like Iran is being pointed at hard as a key supplier of materials and training.

Looks like oil markets are speculating Iran is going to get brought into the war or at least be more than a bystander. Likely after the Gaza offensive reaches some level of objectives.

I’m just an armchair speculator based upon what media shows us so really I feel I know less than nothing except another human tragedy is unfolding.

Thank god we live in Canada. Can’t say enough how fortunate we are compared to many areas of the world. Adds more value of thought to celebrating thanksgiving.

Hard to imagine the shoe on the other foot. As I ponder what leftovers to eat for lunch… some poor soul is a hostage threaten with death every second they breathe right now.

Hearing so many foreigners have been killed should really rile people up.

Russia is likely happy to have another war to take focus from them. So much happening. It’s sensory overload.

Why is it no surprise that CUPE 3096, the union that represents workers at McMaster University is expressing support for the attacks on Israel?

Exactly. We already had a terrorist cell , The Toronto 17 ..actually 18 after a later arrest . This was back in 2006 with plans to bomb the TO stock exchange and other buildings and arm themselves with weapons intent on killing Canadians. Thanks to Law Enforcement plans for a very serious terrorist attack was stopped and the losers brought before the courts. Now 17 years later with thousands more allowed to enter Canada some kind of terrorist act will happen in Canada. I would not let ONE of those rats into the country. Not ONE.

Seriously!! Is that’s why Israeli forces were calling on the residents of the houses they are about to bomb to get out of their homes so they can level the hidden rockets and ammo storage places of Hamas?

Was talking to a buddy of mine who lives in Israel. He said the following: it is a major failure of Israeli intelligence. This didn’t happen just overnight. There were many cases of missing and stolen weapons from Israeli army depot. Israeli army is not nearly the same as it was 20 years ago when it had a great training, high morals and great intelligence. Apparently, these are all gone. Their generation of millenials(20-24 years old) do not have the spirit like their parents did. Liberalism infected them and destroying from inside. They don’t know who Ben Gurion was and thinking it’s an airport… Not too many of them want to go to the army and even less want to join the fighting brigades…

It is sick. Hamas is a listed terrorist organization.

https://www.publicsafety.gc.ca/cnt/n...d-ntts-en.aspx

Supporting terrorism should be fair grounds to fire an employee.

In this woke era… how on earth is the might of the internet not trouncing these people in support of terrorists and murder of defenceless people in the Hamas attack.
