A really good article about the sinking of the Iranian ship.
Jus ad bellum - the law under which a state may justifiably resort to war - is regarded as distinct from jus in bello - the laws of armed conflict, how they are fought, like the Geneva Conventions. Here’s a useful article on the Iranian ship issue. sundayguardianlive.com/editors-choi...
This is a very clear, succinct outline of the law as it relates to armed conflict.
1. I keep seeing people say "if the war itself is illegal, then no act committed in that war can be legal, so why bother to distinguish between legal and illegal acts." This is profoundly mistaken, and let me explain why.
“In the court documents, the province also said it is “not responsible for the management and control of public schools" and has no knowledge of student activity or any “daily internal operations” of any school in the province.”

What will it take for regular people to understand that if they refuse to stand up against fascism they will not be spared? Fascism is a serial killer with no restrictions on who it targets.

I contacted #Halifax communications and the city WILL NOT be giving the $50,000 to the Davis Cup. “the event no longer delivers the tourism, economic and other benefits that would have been expected had it proceeded as originally planned.”
I do understand the instinct to not criticize Carney for fear of indirectly promoting Poilievre, but that doesn’t make that instinct right. Critical discourse is the foundation of democracy, and we need to allow ourselves to go back there.
Carney WON the election. There is no election on the horizon. The "If you criticize Carney, we get Poilievre" fearmongering makes literally no sense. Carney has passed his first 100 days. The "Wait and See" crowd also look like goofs. We can, and should, criticize what is happening NOW.
He hasn’t gone away, Canada. We must remain vigilant!
Poilievre lies over and over again

One of the greatest Canadians ever. The man who started the ball rolling to give us our universal healthcare, although we just call it free healthcare whenever the fuck we need it. He had a thing or two to say on other subjects as well.
