Note to the reader:



You will see below that a journalist writing for Canada's national

broadcaster (CBC) has no problems pointing out Israel's occupation of

the West Bank when drawing parallels with Russia and Ukraine. You will

not see such mention of Israel in the US media. This is an example of

something I pointed out a week or two ago - how Canada ranked so high on

the recent global scale of journalistic freedom - and the US was far

down on that list.



Of course it's par for the course that american media and "news" outlets

would not dare point out how ludicrous it is that only the US can invade

other countries to perform "regime change" under the pretense of

"preemtive war" while protecting their "strategic interests".

There is an almost exact parallel far closer to home here with how the USA

took over and forcibly integrated Hawaii with even less excuse.



In this case the Hawaiians wanted to join the British empire (hence the

Union "jack" incorporated into their state flag.)

Unbelievable. You're claiming that events from 125 years ago are
relevant today? Following similar logic, you could quickly
conclude that slavery today is justified and OK, because it existed in
the USA and other countries 150 years ago. See how that works?
