    This article is funny

    But none have stepped up to condemn India for its alleged involvement in the June slaying on Canadian soil of a Sikh separatist, Hardeep Singh Nijjar. Why?

    later,

    Canada has yet to provide any evidence of India’s involvement in the killing. But . . .

    How many guesses do we get for the question?

      It’s also wrong. We know the five eyes have been involved in providing intelligence on the incident. Canada hasn’t publicly released evidence, but to therefore conclude there isn’t any or it hasn’t been shared privately is a pretty big leap.

        I have no doubts the five eyes believe the accusations and have / are mounting their own evidence, but I also don’t expect world governments to start condeming or sanctioning India based on hidden evidence because that doesn’t sound like a very diplomatic way to procede as a third party country to this fiasco.

        Edit: woke up today to articles about indian comms obtained to canada and Biden talking to Modi personally, so it seems we’re already developing a little more past the info we had.

          I totally agree with you. The article is just shitty (which seems to be a pattern with coverage of this story).
