Ursula Schneider was a 16-year-old Jewish girl when she boarded the MS St. Louis in 1939, sailing out of Hamburg.
The Voyage of the Damned, as it became known. With 936 passengers, most of them Jews fleeing Nazi Germany, the liner crossed the Atlantic, docking first in Havana, where Ursula’s father was waiting. Only 28 who had valid entry documents were allowed to get off. Ursula wasn’t one of them. The ship sailed on to the Florida coast but the St. Louis was turned away by the United States.
The article fails to acknowledge that Canada’s Jewish community is experiencing a socially acceptable hate made possible by the embrace of DEI/CRT by our government, public institutions and of course the education system that initially singled out white people for racist abuse.
It became normal even fashionable to declare whites racist based soley on skin coulour and responsible for all of societies ills.
Since it is officially acceptable to publicly hate White people it follows that it must also be fine to publicly hate Jews. After all both groups are characterized as inherently racist oppressors by way of birth.
And contrary to the Star author’s expressed belief the Hamas supporters are not a fringe group within the Muslim community.
Ask yourself why our politicians squirm when asked to condemn the Hamas supporters.
1.8 Million Mohammedans vs 315K Jews. In the identity politics wheel of fortune Jews lose.
Votes matter to our politicians and that grants the Hamas supporters the unspoken right to exercise publicly sanctioned hate.
