Freedom Advocacy Network

Did you know that even as an ally, you may be directly or indirectly funding wars, be it in Palestine, Congo, Sudan, Yemen and other conflicted places around the world? Many pension plans in US (401k), Europe (pension plans) and Canada (RRSP) include a percentage of defence stocks and US treasuries. THESE CONTRIBUTE DIRECTLY to the wars in Palestine, Congo, Sundan, Yemen and across the world. YOUR MONEY.

Thankfully almost all major banks now offer ethical investment options which exclude these stocks. Talk to your financial advisor. Check their exclusion list. If your retirement savings are through your employer, find out if they are invested in defence or US treasuries, and demand ethical alternatives. MOST IMPORTANTLY: When you start the process, post about it on ALL of your social media accounts using #DivestFromWarStocks. This is essential for your actions to be impactful.

Palestinians were forcibly removed, massacred, and ethnically cleansed out of what makes up most of modern Israel today. They continue to live under Israeli oppression, with no control over their borders, water supply, radio space, air space, and continue to face mass punishment for the last several decades.

Kashmiri Pandits were forcibly removed, massacred, and ethnically cleansed out of many parts of Kashmir where they had lived for many generations before. Injustices done against them should not be used to justify oppression and anti-democratic practices against the entire Kashmiri population.

Injustices were done against both groups, Palestinians and Kashmiri Pandits, at a massive scale.

Both Palestinians and Kashmiri Pandits have the right to return and go back to the homes that were violently taken away from them.

If you support right of return of Palestinians, then by extension, you are also morally obligated to support right of return of the Kashmiri Pandits.

If you support right of return of Kashmiri Pandits, then by extension, you are also morally obligated to support right of return of the Palestinians.

Both groups of oppressed people were kicked out by religious extremists – one driven by extreme Jewish/Christian ideology, and the other driven by extreme Muslim ideology. Now yet another religious extremist, Hindutva ideology, is further being used to oppress Kashmiris.

Peace and justice is only possible without oppression. Start with rights of return of all the oppressed people – including Palestinians and Kashmiri Pandits.

I have been calling, emailing, tweeting and messaging on Facebook 10 different Conservative MPs for the last three years, asking them all the same questions we have already raised on this website. Why are they barely saying a few words, barely speaking out, about the genocide being committed in Yemen with help from Canadian weapons. Most of them refused to respond. When a couple of them did respond, they completely deflected and ignored the questions.

It’s not Islamophobic to call for boycott and sanctions against Saudi Arabia for committing genocide in Yemen, starving millions, killing 100,000s for the last 6 years (source: ministryofwoke.com)

It’s not anti-Semitic to call for boycott and sanctions against Israel for its decades long occupation of Palestinian lands (Source: B’tselem)

(I can’t find MP Alleslev’s support for Saudi Arms deal – but above links do clearly show Erin O’Toole and Andrew Scheer’s ongoing support for the deal – and O’Toole might be the next party leader!

I found opposite information about MP Alleslev actually – where she was the lone Conservative AGAINST Saudi export permits – here: https://ploughshares.ca/pl_publications/open-letter-re-ottawas-decision-to-lift-moratorium-on-saudi-arms-exports/)

Here I am being interviewed on Global TV about my song:
