The Return of the NDP's Anti-Israel Fringe - by Matt Gurney

"...Mr Atamanenko's office has apparently confirmed that he is indeed a supporter of the Canadian Boat To Gaza, though it did so to a Quebec news agency..
This wouldn't be the first time the NDP has had an MP go off the reservation when it comes to Israel.."
NP's Matt Gurney's racist allusion to a standard settler state practice - the imprisonment of the Indigenous landowners - is the perfect indictment of both racist states' apartheid and colonialisms. Let us hope the principled support by NDP MP Atamanenko is not crushed and overruled by the reactionary pro-Zionist NDP leadership.
