LONDON (AP) — Greta Thunberg was detained by British police on Tuesday alongside other climate activists who gathered outside a central London hotel to disrupt a major oil and gas industry conference.

There is a hostility towards those who speak of Palestinian rights in Canada
The horrendous killings and taking of hostages of hundreds of Israeli civilians by Hamas fighters in the Gaza Strip is generating a lot of sympathy and concern across political spectrum in Canada and that makes sense.
In the midst of all the ink being used to follow Palestine-Israel developments, this article stands out for putting things in a broader geo-political perspective--or at least attempting to do so. Of course, I don't know how accurate it is, because I don't normally keep track of all the intricate connections discussed.
