Great White North
Trudeau raises concern over Israel's planned Rafah offensive
2024-03-20
[GEO.TV] Canadian Prime Minister Justin "Kim Jong" Trudeau
...hereditary prime minister of the Great White North...
on Monday expressed concern around Israel's planned offensive in the southern Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has pledged to push into Rafah in Gaza's southern tip, where more than half of the territory's 2.3 million residents have been sheltering to escape an Israeli assault farther north.

U.S. President Joe The Big Guy Biden
...46th president of the U.S. Old, boring, a plagiarist, fond of hair sniffing and grabbing the protruding parts of women, and not whatcha call brilliant... or is that an act?...
warned Netanyahu on Monday that an Israeli military operation in Rafah would deepen anarchy in Gaza and they agreed that teams from each side would meet in Washington to discuss it, according to the White House.

#5  Operation Nickel Grass was the codename for a strategic airlift conducted by the United States to deliver weapons and supplies to Israel during the 1973 Arab–Israeli War. Between 14 October and 14 November of that year, the Military Airlift Command of the United States Air Force shipped approximately 22,325 tons of supplies, including tanks, artillery, and ammunition, in multiple flights of C-141 Starlifters and C-5 Galaxys. This initiative was undertaken to help improve the position of the Israeli military in the face of a large-scale joint offensive by Egypt and Syria, both of which had been receiving extensive support from the Soviet Union.
On 19 October, nearly two weeks after Egypt's Operation Badr, the United States pledged to support Israel's fight against the Arab countries.

#4  Amid Canada's 'arms embargo': Here are the Israeli weapons still in use in Ottawa
The minister's announcement forgot to mention that in the last decade, the Canadian Defense Ministry purchased Israeli weapon systems worth more than a billion dollars.

#3   Trudeau government halting arms to Israel once details are worked out

I don't know if it's true but legend has it Israel was about to nuke Cairo during the 1973 Yom Kippur War. They were running low on ammunition and weapons as the Egyptians attacked across the Sinai Peninsula and, rather than accept defeat, they had a nuclear armed airplane warming up on the runway before Nixon authorized the arms shipment they requested. Nixon had to have C-130s land just behind the front line to keep the IDF from defeat.

Maybe Biden and Trudeau want Israelis to nuke Gaza, Lebanon and Iran.
