Government of Canada has listed Samidoun, also known as the Palestinian Prisoner Solidarity Network, as a terrorist entity under the Criminal Code. The listing is in concert with U.S. Department of the Treasury’s announcement of the designation of Samidoun as a specially designated global terrorist (SDGT) through its Executive Order (E.O.) 13224.
Samidoun has been listed as a terrorist entity by Germany. Samidoun has close links with and advances the interests of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), which is a listed terrorist entity in Canada, the United States and the European Union.
I had a feeling this was gonna happen. Samidoun is the most visible group advocating for Palestinians throughout it all over here, and recently they made the headlines when the leaders at a protest burnt the Canadian flag and said death to Canada. It got all conservative (and even liberal) MPs frothing mad.
Even the “leftist” Canadian subs were saying you should never burn the Canadian flag or say death to Canada
And, just so we’re clear, their terrorist actions include brutal acts of indiscriminate violence like demanding an end to torture in Israeli dungeons?
