Dirty Carney fuckers:
@SMohyeddin 7:59pm, Sept 26, 2025:
My source also told me that @vgasparro offered to PMO to delete his message re: @KNEECAPCEOL being banned from Canada but was told not to as “it will attract more attention.” Both PMO @MarkJCarney and @CitImmCanada have yet to respond to my request for comment.
@KavitaAlguMD:
This story gets more and more concerning and embarrassing.
So they all just deciddd to go along with it even though it was a lie in service of pro-Israel groups??
How was he not fired immediately?
Thank you for your reporting, Samira!
@warriorp1969:
Canada is under Jewish supremacist occupation. Our government is so fucking embarrassing for bending over backwards to impress our Israeli masters. It’s not about antisemitism but silencing critics of israel’s Genocide.
@DandeLench:
A bunch of traitors to Canada and it’s values, scumbags all!
@DonallBran:
Carney, the Great Liberator, turns out to be just another US poodle.
PALESTINE will be Zionist free but CANADA will always be America’s gutless slave.
@marywallace07:
In other words,they are pro Israel, pro Genocide, pro Cowards.
@MysticMuse1o1:
These are Despicable WAR Criminals & amoral Zionists. They should not be in Any Government Office in Canada but in a cell in the Hague for their complicity in GENOCIDE & aiding the terror entity of israel while breaching Int’l law (Geneva, Genocide & NPT) & LYING to Canadians.

@RamAbdu:
This needs no political analysis, only psychological: blasting Netanyahu’s speech on loudspeakers in devastated Gaza shows chilling sadism, cruelty, dehumanization, and inhumanity beyond imaginable brutality.

@daviddoel.bsky.social Sept 26, 2025:
6 days ago Liberal MP Vince Gasparro smeared and ‘banned’ Kneecap from Canada (forcing them to cancel tour dates) just 3 days after meeting with an Israeli lobby group, using this bogus terrorism charge as reasoning.
Seems a public apology is in order.
@KNEECAPCEOL:
A message from Liam Óg:
“A massive thank you to my legal team.
Darragh, Jude, blinne, Brenda, Gareth and to all at Phoenix law.
A special thanks also to my interpreter Susan.
This entire process was never about me, never about any threat to the public and never about “terrorism”, a word used by your government to discredit people you oppress.
It was always about Gaza.
About what happens if you dare to speak up.
As people from Ireland we know oppression, colonialism, famine and genocide.
We have suffered and still suffer under “your empire”.
Your attempts to silence us have failed, because we are right, and you are wrong.
We will not be silent.
We said we would fight you in your court and we would win.
We have.
If anyone on this planet is guilty of terrorism, it is the British state.
Free Palestine!
Tiocfaidh ár lá.”
Terror charge against Kneecap band member thrown out by court, A judge has ruled there was a technical error in the way the charge was brought by Josh Payne, Friday 26 September 2025, Independent
The terrorism case against Kneecap rapper Liam Óg Ó hAnnaidh has been thrown out following a technical error in the way the charge against him was brought.
The 27-year-old Belfast musician, who performs as Mo Chara, was charged in May under the name Liam O’Hanna for allegedly displaying a flag in support of Hezbollah, a proscribed organisation, at a gig in London’s Kentish Town in November 2024.
He denied the offence, labelling it “political policing” and a “carnival of distraction” from the war in Gaza, which Kneecap have been vocal about opposing.
“We are not the story, genocide is,” a statement posted by the group on social media said.
In August, Mr Ó hAnnaidh’s lawyer, Brenda Campbell KC, told a court that the attorney Ggneral had not given permission for the case to be brought against the defendant when police informed him he was to face a terror charge on 21 May.
She said consent was given the following day, which meant the charge fell outside the six-month timeframe in which criminal charges against a defendant can be brought.

At Woolwich Crown Court on Friday, chief magistrate Paul Goldspring agreed with Ms Campbell.
In his judgment, Mr Goldspring said: “These proceedings were instituted unlawfully and are null.”
Concluding the reasons for his decision, he said: “I find that these proceedings were not instituted in the correct form, lacking the necessary DPP (director of public prosecutions) and AG (attorney general) consent within the six-month statutory time limit.
“The time limit requires consent to have been granted at the time or before the issue of the requisition.
“Consequently the charge is unlawful and null and this court has no jurisdiction to try the charge.”
Prosecutor Michael Bisgrove previously told a court that permission from the DPP and AG was not required until the defendant’s first court appearance and that permission did not need to be sought in order to bring a criminal charge.
The chief magistrate dismissed the arguments, telling the court they “defy logic”.

Outside court, Ó hAnnaidh said the terrorism case “was always about Gaza”.
“It was never about any threat to the public, it was never about terrorism – a word used by your government to discredit people you oppress.
“It was always about Gaza, about what happens if you dare to speak up.”
Northern Ireland’s first minister Michelle O’Neill welcomed the development.
“These charges were part of a calculated attempt to silence those who stand up and speak out against the Israeli genocide in Gaza,” she wrote on X.
“Kneecap have used their platform on stages across the world to expose this genocide, and it is the responsibility of all of us to continue speaking out and standing against injustice in Palestine.”

Meanwhile, Kneecap’s manager Daniel Lambert wrote on X: “We have won!!!!!!
“Liam Og is a free man. We said we would fight them and win. We did (Twice). Kneecap has NO charges OR convictions in ANY country, EVER.
“Political policing has failed. Kneecap is on the right side of history. Britain is not. Free Palestine.”
The Crown Prosecution Service said it was “reviewing the decision of the court carefully”.
It pointed out that the decision could be appealed against.
