  1. Since #Israel assassinated #Hamas top leader Ismail #Haniyeh in an #extraterritorial strike inside #Iran, there has been pressure on #Qatar (where Haniyeh lived in luxury), to eject other Hamas representatives from there.

    Now #US is accusing the group of rejecting the #Gaza #ceasefire and hostage deal and saying it will no longer accept Hamas presence in Qatar.

    [Aside: Can #India say it will no longer accept the presence of #Khalistan #secessionists in #Canada? 🤔]

  2. ⬆️ @cube_drone Yours is the most cool-headed & cogent discussion I've seen from anybody on this topic. Thanks.

    You make a detailed case for what could happen if the shoe were on the other foot, and it makes sense, including potential for racism & bigotry.

    The piece that's missing is the #Canada and #India have a mutual #extradition treaty. If either is aggrieved (#Khalistan #secessionists operating from #Canadian soil or #Quebecois or #WildRose operating from #Indian soil), there is a process

  3. People complain about #SovereignCitizens, but you know what, they bother me a lot less than state level #secessionists. Sovereign citizens have issues with logistics and universalizability, but at the end of the day they just want to be left alone, and they're going it alone when they do that, so I can respect it.

    People who talk about state level #secession are talking about dragging everyone else around them through the logistical nightmare, one which they fail to even seem to recognize, of decoupling from a massive country without devolving into a third world country, especially since a lot of these states are heavily reliant on the federal government.

    That's even before the fact that the last time people got those states to secede they murdered a bunch of people, set up dictatorships, and started a crazy war.

    At least a #SovereignCitizen's decisions don't reach far beyond themselves.

    #Russia invaded #Ukraine twice

    Moldova's #Transdniestria is stirring just like Ukraine's #Luhansk did 10 yrs ago

    After Russia annexed #Crimea in 2014, pro-#Russian #secessionists declared ind. in #Donetsk & #Luhansk —> war in #Donbas

    I'm pointing out #UncannySimilarities between Luhansk 2014 & Transdniestria 2024 in #Putin's #revanchistDreams to recreate #IronCurtain comprising at least Ukraine, Moldova, #Romania, & #Bulgaria ➡️ mastodon.social/@rameshgupta/1

    #Modi: We have #Khalistanis 😂 We shoot them in other countries.
    #Nijjar in #Canada. #Pannun in #US. We don't always succeed, but we try.

    You see, #Scotland has a long history of #referendums on #devolution of powers, with some talk of #ScottishIndependence, but in a #civilized way.

    #Khalistan #secessionists ran a decade-long #terror campaign in #India, gunned down innocent civilians, blew up airliners, and assassinated PM #IndiraGandhi.

    So, India too likes to "shoot them"
