Canada-Based Former PFLP Member Khaled Barakat – “The Extinction Of The Zionist Project Is Only A Matter Of Time”

Former senior official of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) and activist Khaled Barakat, who is based in Canada, wrote in an article published in the Lebanese daily Al-Akhbar on July 2, 2024, praising the “steadfastness” of the “courageous” armed resistance of Lebanese Hizbullah, Palestinian jihadi factions, and Yemen’s Houthi Ansar Allah Movement against the U.S. and Israel. The piece was also published in English on the website of Masar Badil, or the Palestinian Alternative Revolutionary Path Movement, an Anti-Israel, pro-Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) NGO led by Barakat.

Trudeau’s Canada: Temporary Residents, New Immigrants Push Up Canada Unemployment

Temporary residents and recent immigrants are driving up Canada’s unemployment rate, as record numbers of newcomers welcomed to the country to fill labor shortages are now struggling to find work.

The unemployment rate for temporary residents – including foreign workers, international students and asylum seekers – was 11% in June, according to Bloomberg calculations. Using comparable data, the unemployment rate for all workers was just 6.2% last month.

Immigrants who’ve landed in the last five years are also having a hard time finding a job, with their unemployment rate reaching 12.6% in June.

Fifty attacked in French election violence — and officials fear riots

At least 51 candidates and party activists have been attacked amid a climate of “great violence” during the campaign for France’s parliamentary elections, according to the French interior minister.

Gérald Darmanin, the interior minister, said he feared further disorder after Sunday’s second round, which polls say will leave the populist right National Rally as the biggest party but without an absolute majority.

It will be fixed so Macron remains in power.

It’s not fair, Mr. President, but it’s reality

His interview with George Stephanopoulos did nothing to reassure people worried about a Biden defeat.

“It was a bad episode,” President Biden told ABC News’s George Stephanopoulos Friday of his debate debacle. “No indication of any serious condition.”

Glad to hear it! But what about us?

Trudeau Tells Israeli President to Avoid Escalating Conflict With Hezbollah

Are young people really drifting Right?

Results of the French legislative elections show something surprising: nearly a third of voters under 25 back Marine Le Pen’s national populist Rassemblement National (RN), led by the youthful Jordan Bardella.

Meanwhile, closer to home, a new JL Partners poll of British 16- and 17-year-olds shows that fully 23% of this school-age group would vote, if given the opportunity, for Nigel Farage’s immigration-restrictionist Reform UK. Labour’s manifesto commitment to lower the voting age to 16 could therefore prove a boon to the Right-wing party.

Michael Taube: Google partners with lefty collective in attempted end run around Online News Act

The Online News Act, which came into force at the end of last year, forced major information technology companies like Google and Meta to share revenue from Canadian news stories posted on their websites with the media outlets that originally produced them.

Google opted to make a deal with the Department of Canadian Heritage last November, which will see the company contribute $100 million a year to Canadian-based news publishers, to be distributed in an equitable fashion by a collective.
