Anti-NATO protesters gathered again in Montreal on Saturday to demand Canada withdraw from the alliance, a day after a demonstration organized by different groups resulted in arrests, burned cars and shattered windows.
the purpose of the protest was to demonstrate against what he called NATO’s “complicity with Israel’s military while it’s conducting its genocide in Gaza, … war crimes in Lebanon, Syria” and that “it’s enforcing illegal occupation of Palestinian territories.”
However, Allard rejected accusations of antisemitism. He said the protests were against the actions of the state of Israel and not Jewish people, adding that earlier this week the International Criminal Court issued an arrest warrant for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
I’m asking the question again: What good exactly did NATO do in Afghanistan during 20 years? Bring democracy? Was it the plan all all along to leave a bunch of weapons and the control of the country to the Taliban? You’re aware that girls don’t have the right to go to school anymore, and often get forced into marriage at 12? Is that what NATO is for?
Are you people just defending NATO because Trump said bad things about it? I’m genuinely curious, since when “leftys” started to cheers for NATO? I’m guessing this is mostly a US thing since being left in this country is basically being center-right in the rest of world.
And just to clarify before being call a tankie, I think Putin is an evil manipulative piece of shit and I can’t wait for him to die (I hope he suffers a lot) so I can take a piss on his grave.
Countries that were subjected to Russian genocide and imperialism place great importance on NATO membership, especially since Russia is doing it all over again. Preventing death and loss of sovereignty is a very real benefit of NATO.
But… Nato is not doing anything for Ukraine!!! And NATO is letting an actual genocide happen in Palestine!!!
If living in a nato country means you were able to live in peace for the past decades, I can see why people would like that, regardless of them leaning left or right.
