Lol the mid 2000s? You ever heard of the FLQ? The mostly Marxist Quebec Libération Front of the 60s? They were training in Jordan with the PLO/PFLP. As did the German RAF, Ulrike Meinhof was injured with a grenade there.

The Anti-Israel Movement in Québec in the 1970s: At the Ideological Crossroads of the New Left and Liberation-Nationalism

Since the late 1950s, Third World nationalism in Algeria, Vietnam, and the Middle East had fascinated radical Quebec nationalists. Quebec nationalism’s militant arm, the Front de libération du Québec (FLQ), styled itself as a national-liberation movement fighting against Anglo-Canadian exploitation and oppression. After the Six-Day-War, the PLO became a significant source of inspiration for these elements. Quebec was their Palestine, as one prominent Quebec Nationalist asserted. This militant Quebec nationalism coincided and often overlapped with the rise of the New Left at Quebec’s universities and in its unions. Like its European and American counterparts, the Quebec New Left adopted the ideologies of anti-imperialism and anti-Zionism, and in 1972, the Quebec-Palestine Association was established in this milieu. Anti-imperialism combined the Marxist analysis of class struggle with a nationalistic worldview, which saw the world divided between oppressor and oppressed nations. For the New Left, Israel became the epitome of an oppressor nation. It was associated with all the supposed vices of the West: Racism, capitalism, inauthenticity, and militarism. This paper sheds light on the founding years of the Quebec anti-Zionist movement in the early 1970 and discusses the themes and images it used to describe Israel and the Arab-Israeli conflict.

For a more American perspective, Malcom X was always Anti-Zionist.

It was Malcolm who warned us in his lifetime about the damage being done to the Palestinians, before any other African American leader or civil rights organization, just as he would take on the Vietnam War before anyone else would.

The Zionist Logic - Malcom X

The Israeli Zionists are convinced they have successfully camouflaged their new kind of colonialism.

This plan is also incredibly climate resilient.

But also incredibly climate damaging, which I guess makes it a self fulfilling prophecy!

Plot twist, the foreign légionnaires are all Lebanese and Palestinian double agents!

TBF, are there even ICE cars under $25K? A base model Corolla is $23K or something

An EV mini pickup camper or van would've sweet though.

I'm pretty serious though, it's obvious for anyone with more than two brain cells that wagons/estates/familiales are the superior EV platform. Longer wheelbase means extra space for the battery skateboard, lower profile means reduced drag and increased efficiency. It's a fucking no-brainer. Let alone the fact that they are superior vehicles in terms of utility. I have what I'd describe as a wagonette, and it has load more trunk space than most SUVs, and plenty of leg and head room even for full grown adults in the back seat.

Hear me out... We build it out of a flotilla of the combined world's fleet of super yachts and cruise ships! And we dock it on the Principality of Sealand (they have good internet there I think)

For the soda stream one good trick is to buy the machine (which they sell as a loss leader), and buy a 5lbs CO2 tank from a beer supply store for which you can find adapters on AliExpress or eBay!

https://www.indigosoda.ca/en/ is another alternative, made in Quebec, Canada. It's also fully SodaStream compatible trololo.jpg

If your carbonation didn't work well in a keg, it's probably because your liquid isn't cold enough.
