The trip will go down as one of the more shameful moments in Canada's odious anti-Palestinian history. Amidst the brutal siege of Gaza foreign affairs minister Joly traveled to Israel Friday. After meeting her Israeli counterpart, Eli Cohen, Canada's top diplomat tweeted, "I reiterated our support for Israel’s right to self-defence". In describing the meeting, Israel's foreign minister boasted, "We continue to mobilize the world for the fight against Hamas! I met today with Canada’s Foreign Minister Melanie Joly, who also came to support Israel." In the hours before Joly released her tweet, Israel demanded that half the population of Gaza move to the southern part of the narrow coastal strip. Additionally, Israeli defence minister Yoav Gallant boasted about cutting off water, food, fuel and electricity to the open-air prison. Subject Headings |
