Oh shit, really? Well, it does portray the Lama negatively.

In this specific case, a spook from the US government would be in the room with them when they discussed it, so procurement isn’t a problem. Safety would be a real concern, though, you’re right.

Depends on what they do next, right? Technically they still haven’t, but that’s a bit of a minor detail since we all know guys like Smotrich want Palestine and/or Palesinians gone, and they’re doing things that would eventually lead to that outcome if continued.

Technically is doing a lot of work here, that was the point.

That being said, requirement for success varies by crime (murder charges are only used if it works), and success usually has to be reasonably forseeable in the cases where it isn’t. Genocide would definitely be in the latter category, and as it is it will be very hard for ZA’s lawyers to prove to the ICJ that Israel has attempted to kill all Palestinians in Gaza, given that only a fraction are actually dead, and Israel could do it very easily if they committed to it.

IANAL

Yep. That’s the situation here I think.

This is the first anti-immigrant policy of any kind Canada’s put in place for a long time, and people are rightfully worried because of that. The thing is, we just have an absolutely insane housing shortage, and so the government has to be seen shoring up immigration somehow, or it will be vulnerable in the upcoming election.
