Oh boy, what a landmine to navigate around…
Pipsqueak probably can’t wait to jump on this regardless which way it goes.
Who or what is P/pipsqueak?

Thank you. Based a quick internet search, I think y’all are talking about CPC leader Pierre Poilievre.
I think the Israeli genocide is benefiting conservative politicians, like Pierre. A lot of conservatives seem easily corralled into being blindly pro-Israel when it’s conducive to Western interests, and so conservative politicians can pretty easily beat the pro-Israel drum to the nods of most of their base. Progressives (or non-conservatives) on the other hand are more split, and so their politicians are more hard pressed to say anything without ostracizing people they don’t want to ostracize
Yes, that’s him.
True. With that said, I don’t know if he can win an election without the arab vote which he’s bound to lose if he bangs the pro-Israel drum. The same is true for Trudeau of course but so far he has tried to avoid drumming blindly.
I think it’s less complicated. Basically Pete wants to jump on any opportunity to be the attack dog, which was his role under Harper.
If it were possible for him to be official opposition while a Conservative PM was in charge, he’d keep his mouth shut.
