Reposted by Aamir HussainRachel Gilmore @rachelgilmore.bsky.social · 12/08/2025After Israel slaughtered several Al Jazeera journalists, I asked the foreign affairs minister's office whether Canada intends to take action. Their response made me, as a journalist, feel sick. They pointed me to a tweet repost. One with a grammatical error. It didn't even name Israel: 1128081
Aamir Hussain @aamiranauthor.bsky.social · 28/07/2025And the human spirit cries out to fight against it. And what the state of Israel and the United States of America have done, will be remembered for as long as humans are able to authentically record history. ↓🧵 (8/8) 010
Aamir Hussain @aamiranauthor.bsky.social · 28/07/2025But that's not going to happen. The vast majority of Palestinians and their growing numbers of allies are always going to be speaking. We are going to get louder. We are going to act harder. We have seen the tyranny, and we all understand now the nature of evil. ↓🧵 (7/8) 110
Aamir Hussain @aamiranauthor.bsky.social · 28/07/2025I think they want us to get disheartened, despondent, give up, move on, and finally allow the state of Israel to complete the genocide and grab more land just as that state has been doing since it's horrific and bloody inception in 1948. ↓🧵 (6/8) 100
Aamir Hussain @aamiranauthor.bsky.social · 28/07/2025Millions of Palestinians in Gaza are literally starving to death and the world is unable to act, entirely because of the America and the American bloc of countries which includes allies like Canada and governments propped up by the US like those of Egypt and Jordan. ↓🧵 (5/8) 100
Aamir Hussain @aamiranauthor.bsky.social · 28/07/2025What I *am* surprised by is how durable and inexhaustible the evil of the United States of America is. ↓🧵 (4/8) 100
Aamir Hussain @aamiranauthor.bsky.social · 28/07/2025Now I'm not surprised by Israel, I've known the horror of the state of Israel for decades now. ↓🧵 (3/8) 100
Aamir Hussain @aamiranauthor.bsky.social · 28/07/2025But I do, because of the depth of evil of the Zionist, apartheid, genocidal state of Israel as the people of Gaza enter this terminal stage as was completely predicted when the State of Israel blocked aid on the 2nd of March 2025. ↓🧵 (2/8) 100
Aamir Hussain @aamiranauthor.bsky.social · 28/07/2025I never knew what 5th stage malnutrition was, in a reality where the world produces more than enough food for everyone on the planet, I should never have to. #Gaza #Israel #Palestine #genocide ↓🧵 (1/8) 330

Reposted by Aamir HussainScott Forbes🇨🇦 @theecologyprof.bsky.social · 17/07/2025Canada is 0.5% of the world population. We produce 5% of the oil & 6% of the methane. Canadian taxpayers subsidized the fossil fuel industry ~$30 billion in 2024. We subsidize global oil & gas users to help burn the planet.

Aamir Hussain @aamiranauthor.bsky.social · 01/07/2025It's an ugly one sided justification that no other country in the world gets, because well, what about the Palestinians right to 'not live in fear' Mark? (9/9) 000
Aamir Hussain @aamiranauthor.bsky.social · 01/07/2025Canada lives in fear of a US invasion, Finland leaves in fear of a Russian invasion. It's an unavoidable and permanent part of contemporary human society. And Carney's stated worldview directly means that Israel's permanent fear justifies Israel's permanent war. ↓ Continue reading (8/9) 100
Aamir Hussain @aamiranauthor.bsky.social · 01/07/2025Secondly, insisting on the right of Israel to not live in fear is a straight up insidious and evil condition to put on peace. And the reason is, that every country lies in fear of its neighbours. This is why they have militaries. ↓ Continue reading (7/9) 100
Aamir Hussain @aamiranauthor.bsky.social · 01/07/2025Zionism has been the driving force for nearly two years of genocide now. What Canadian values are being served by promoting it? Please Mr. Carney let me know what the overlap is between genocide and Canadian values. ↓ Continue reading (6/9) 100
Aamir Hussain @aamiranauthor.bsky.social · 01/07/2025This is ridiculous and paternalistic right at the base of it, but requiring Palestinians to adopt an ideology that, as we speak, is justifying not only using starvation as a weapon of war against them, but weaponizing aid distribution as well is heinous. ↓ Continue reading (5/9) 100
Aamir Hussain @aamiranauthor.bsky.social · 01/07/2025Firstly he's making the Palestinian right to self-determination dependent on them accepting a political ideology. ↓ Continue reading (4/9) 100
Aamir Hussain @aamiranauthor.bsky.social · 01/07/2025This is so incredibly insane that I am left wondering what Canadian values even are anymore. Let's quickly analyze this. ↓ Continue reading (3/9) 100
Aamir Hussain @aamiranauthor.bsky.social · 01/07/2025He said, and I am paraphrasing slightly that we cannot have peace in the Middle East unless we have a 'Zionist, if you will, Palestinian state' that recognizes the right of Israel to 'not live in fear'. ↓ Continue reading (2/9) 100

Aamir Hussain @aamiranauthor.bsky.social · 27/06/2025Are you wondering about Sharia because of recent events? Maybe you'd like to read a novel that's set in a Sharia compliant Muslim Matriarchy? "Under The Full and Crescent Moon" is my speculative take on history that has a young woman writing fatwas to fight the patriarchy! Coming this fall! 010

Aamir Hussain @aamiranauthor.bsky.social · 24/06/2025And so as we fight to protect ourselves and to silence the ugly drumbeat of war, millions more of us will die, or be injured, or suffer shattered families. ↓ Continue reading (15/15) 000
Aamir Hussain @aamiranauthor.bsky.social · 24/06/2025And a further depth of terror to the realization on how long a slog it will be to fix this as it was through words that we were first demonized and it is only by words that we will force our way out of this libel. ↓ Continue reading (14/15) 100

Aamir Hussain @aamiranauthor.bsky.social · 24/06/2025This hypothesis is strengthened by the fact of the Western bombings of Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Somalia, Libya, Syria, Lebanon, Yemen. I may have missed some in there. ↓ Continue reading (12/15) 100
Aamir Hussain @aamiranauthor.bsky.social · 24/06/2025Both countries are predominantly Muslim, that's it. Not even the same denomination of the faith, and yet, this is enough to justify any level of violence against them by the West. ↓ Continue reading (11/15) 100

Aamir Hussain @aamiranauthor.bsky.social · 24/06/2025So what do Palestinians and Iranians have in common to justify the callousness with which they are treated by the leaders of the West? After all the countries and peoples have completely different cultures, languages, ethnic makeup, histories etc. ↓ Continue reading (9/15) 100
Aamir Hussain @aamiranauthor.bsky.social · 24/06/2025The same Western leaders and media are complicit as they were unable to muster the will to resist and force an end to a travesty that will stain the reputation of the West for generations to come. ↓ Continue reading (8/15) 100
Aamir Hussain @aamiranauthor.bsky.social · 24/06/2025This overlaps with the genocide of the Palestinian people that has been funded, armed, and protected by the West for more than twenty months. ↓ Continue reading (7/15) 120
Aamir Hussain @aamiranauthor.bsky.social · 24/06/2025These are acts worthy of horror and condemnation, and yet Western heads of state and Western media not only refuse to do so but in some cases even cheer. Because of them the slide of the world into international lawlessness accelerates. ↓ Continue reading (6/15) 100
Aamir Hussain @aamiranauthor.bsky.social · 24/06/2025Just in the last ten days (13th of June 2025 onwards) Iran has been attacked unilaterally twice, first by Israel, and then by the United States of America. Not only were these attacks unilateral, but they were unprovoked, and unjustified. ↓ Continue reading (5/15) 110
Aamir Hussain @aamiranauthor.bsky.social · 24/06/2025In the 35 years since however, the pretexts for wars in West Asia, by the West, have grown increasingly flimsy, and yet the war drums never fail. ↓ Continue reading (4/15) 100
Aamir Hussain @aamiranauthor.bsky.social · 24/06/2025Then, at least, there was a clear justification for the war, Iraq had invaded Kuwait, and the entire world, under the auspices of the United Nations Security Council Resolution 678, was united in authorizing the use of force to liberate Kuwait. ↓ Continue reading (3/15) 100
Aamir Hussain @aamiranauthor.bsky.social · 24/06/2025While I was never in real danger, I vividly remember, as a 9 year old, crowding into my parent's bedroom and putting on gas masks to ward off any chemical weapons Saddam might have lobbed at Saudi Arabia in retaliation for hosting American bases and troops. ↓ Continue reading (2/15) 100

Aamir Hussain @aamiranauthor.bsky.social · 18/06/2025But I'm not going to pretend that, as of the 18th of June 2025, the Iranian response has been going on for less than a week whereas Israel has been doing these things to Palestinians for going on 20 months and 75 years, if not longer. ↓ Continue reading (4/5) 100
