How does a regional zoning “master plan” that was “spoken for” 15 years ago become an attack on “religious liberty” in 2021?

Video: Christine Douglass-Williams on the implications of Canada’s designation of the Proud Boys as terrorists
It is highly significant that the Canadian government decided to list the Proud Boys as a domestic terrorist organization, but won’t follow up on a parliamentary motion to call the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps a terrorist group.

Palestinian Authority condemns Arab member of Israeli Parliament for calling Palestinian prisoners ’terrorists’
An Arab member of the Israeli parliament rightly referred to Palestinian jihadists in prison as “terrorists” during an Israeli TV interview, drawing the ire of the Palestinian Authority.

Israel warns it will ‘not hesitate’ to uproot Iran’s ‘entrenchment’ near Israeli border
Trump made no secret of his support, commitment and loyalty to Israel, which sent a message to Israel’s enemies in the region. That support is now in question.
