Ezra says Carney's decision is driven by domestic politics and the influx of new immigrants with antisemitic views.

Tonight, on The Ezra Levant Show, Ezra criticizes Prime Minister Mark Carney's unilateral decision to recognize an independent Palestine, questioning Canada's authority and Carney's understanding of the conflict. 

Ezra argues this move—not campaigned on—validates terrorist groups like Hamas and the PLO, undermines Israel's right to self-defense, and obstructs U.S. peace efforts, particularly those of Donald Trump. 

He suggests Carney's decision is driven by domestic politics and the influx of new immigrants with antisemitic views. 

Ezra also provides necessary historical context, noting that calls for a Palestinian state only arose after Israel took control of Gaza and the West Bank in 1967. 

He asserts that Palestinian leaders have consistently rejected peace offers and that the international community, especially Hamas, does not respect Canada's influence. 

Ezra concludes that Carney's actions are a "virtue signal" to distract from domestic issues, similar to other Western leaders, and will ultimately fail, leaving Canada with no practical gain.

    carnage is screwing with Trump on purpose and it is of course Liberal distraction away from their destruction of Canada. He is destroying us to let in CCP. By vilifying US, CCP is brought in by carnage to save the day as our new biggest trade partner. We can not let this happen.

    Don’t forget how Canada came to diplomatically recognize the PRC. PET announced it while the country was distracted by the FLQ matter in 1970. Hardly anyone noticed.

    We are in big trouble.

    Marx Carnage is all about optics. He wants Islamist votes. It’s why I hate politicians.
