Israel Labels Canadian Lawmakers 'Terrorists' For Wanting To See West Bank
Six Canadian Members of Parliament, including Jenny Kwan and Iqra Khalid, were denied entry to the West Bank by Israeli authorities, who bizarrely accused their delegation, sponsored by the charity Canadian-Muslim Vote, of being 'a terror entity.' One MP was even 'pushed multiple times,' according to Al-Monitor. (One might wonder if 'terrorism' has a new definition that includes 'looking at things
Israel doesn't want you to see.') This isn't about security; it's about control and information suppression. The Israeli government has a long history of blocking observers, journalists, and policymakers from independently assessing the reality on the ground, particularly concerning the occupation and human rights. This move fits a pattern of obstructing any scrutiny that might shine a light on
their policies, ensuring that the only narrative permitted is the one they project. How many parliamentary delegations need to be labeled 'terrorists' before the international community recognizes the absurdity?
