Perhaps most importantly, the NDP adopted a progressive policy on Palestine, endorsing sanctions on Israel, including a ban on trade with Israeli settlements and an arms embargo AFTER THE CEASEFIRE: WHAT’S NEXT FOR PALESTINE 1 day ago · The present moment should be read dialectically: on the one hand, imperialist states like the US, Canada, and the EU regard Israel as a valuable asset and will continue providing it with decisive support. On the other, popular and anti-imperialist forces are ratcheting up the struggle, as massive crowds turned out for Palestine across much of the Western world last month. TEAR DOWN THAT STATUE! On Sunday night, demonstrators tore down the statue of Egerton Ryerson that stands outside the Toronto university named after him.
