Toronto’s Jewish community is highlighting the need to combat antisemitism amid a spike in hatred against Jews that some have described as “stunning.”
This week marks Holocaust Education Week, and for many Jews in the city, the lessons of the Holocaust are front of mind.
Since the surprise Oct. 7 terror attack in which Hamas killed 1,400 Israelis and took some 240 hostages, and the subsequent response by Israel, which has left some 10,000 Palestinians dead according to the Hamas-run Gaza Health Ministry, incidents of hatred targeting Jews have spiked.
Everyone is shocked yet mystified.
Some white guy has to take the fall and walk around with a confederate flag to ease tensions by allowing the usual suspects to blame the usual suspects.
