frandroid" ‘It’s totally unacceptable’: Mark Carney demands ‘immediate’ explanation after shots fired near Canadians in West Bank
The Israeli military apologized for the incident, which occurred after the delegation “deviated from the approved route” of their visit.”
The joint declaration between France, Canada and the UK a few days ago felt like a turning point to me. Then an "accident" like this is pouring fuel on the fire. It's clear that Trudeau had a Bidenian sense of himself as a Zionist, and it's unclear yet if Carney shares this disposition. I think these early signs say no. Also Trump has been taking to Hamas directly, keeping the Israelis out of the loop. That's the most sensible thing an American administration has done since Obama withheld the American veto on some UNGA or SC resolution in 2015. Qatar and the Saudis have been pressure-hosing gold down Trump's gullet, something that the Israelis can't do. I feel like we might be at all inflexion point...
