‘Woke’ London is most anti-Semitic city in the West, says Israeli minister

London is the most anti-Semitic place in the West, Israel’s diaspora minister said on Wednesday as he warned about the dangers of open immigration allowing extremism to build up.

Amichai Chikli, a controversial hardliner in Israel who is also in charge of anti-Semitism affairs, said a toxic mix of far-Left “wokeism” and Islamic extremism meant the capital city was no longer safe for Jews.

Israel motion could make it harder to get Gazans out of conflict zone, Marc Miller says

OTTAWA — Immigration Minister Marc Miller said a motion passed by the Commons and criticized by Israel could make it more difficult to get Gazans fleeing the war into Canada.

Canada has had a program to allow Gazans seeking to leave the war to come on a temporary resident visa to Canada if they have family ties. The government introduced the program initially with a 1,000-person cap, but only 14 people have managed to take advantage of it because of restrictions on the Gaza-Egypt and Gaza-Israel borders.

Gee that’s awful!

Frankfurt Teachers Impose Ramadan Rules on 5th Graders

In the name of tolerance, diversity, and inclusion, some public school teachers in the Frankfurt metropolitan area in Germany are unilaterally imposing Islam—arguably the world’s most intolerant religion—on their pre-teen students.

For the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, which began March 10th, a pair of primary school teachers took it upon themselves to prohibit fifth-grade students from drinking water in their classrooms out of consideration for a few Muslim pupils fasting.

Accident or choice? Crown, defence paint drastically different pictures of Toronto cop’s death

Defence lawyers painted the death of a Toronto police officer who was crushed by a vehicle as a tragic accident caused by panic and confusion Wednesday as prosecutors argued it was the result of a series of choices made in a matter of moments.

Two drastically different narratives of the events that led to the death of Const. Jeffrey Northrup were laid out in a packed Toronto courtroom as the Crown and defence made their opening statements in the murder trial of Umar Zameer.

Zameer has pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder.

Canada slips to 15th place in annual World Happiness Report

Canada has slipped to 15th place in the annual World Happiness Report(opens in a new tab).

Down from 13th place last year, Canada now sits behind countries like Costa Rica, Kuwait and Austria.

“What’s happened in Canada and the United States is that over the past few years, those under 30 have become much less happy than they were 10 or a dozen years ago,” Canadian economist and World Happiness Report founding editor John Helliwell told CTV News Channel on Wednesday.

Russia wants compensation for the Nazi siege of Leningrad

Moscow is evoking German war crimes in its row over Ukraine — but it’s not the only country with demands

Berlin has rejected a demand by Moscow that it should acknowledge the 900-day siege of Leningrad as genocide and pay compensation for 1.1 million people who died at the hands of the German army.

In a response to a diplomatic note sent by Russia, the German foreign ministry said the blockade of what is now St Petersburg between September 1941 and January 1944 was a “terrible war crime that the German Wehrmacht brought on Leningrad and its population” but fell short of calling it a genocide. It said the German government had emphasised this repeatedly and was maintaining this legal opinion.

France and Ukraine: 2024 Reflects 1938

We may not be living in pre-war years — as the period of the Munich Agreement was, and sometimes still is, called — but it feels that way. West Europeans accustomed to decades of peace under a protective American military umbrella find themselves watching the third year of a war on their eastern flank, caused by Russia’s attempt to conquer Ukraine. Both countries are part of Europe by history and geography. Russia officially recognized its neighbor’s legal sovereignty in 1991.

Unemployment is not a mental-health problem

Vast swathes of the British workforce have been put out to pasture.

Official data published last week by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) tell a grim story of modern Britain.

The official UK unemployment figure of 1.3million, which is relatively low by recent historical standards, is only a small part of this story. The really significant figure is the huge additional number of working-age people whom the state deems incapable of working due to ill-health. This figure now sits at 2.8million, having risen by some 700,000 in the two years since the Covid pandemic. Furthermore, we’ve also learned that two-thirds of those citing ill-health as a reason for their inability to work say they are suffering specifically from mental-health problems, sometimes in combination with physical conditions. Given that 20,000 more benefits claimants citing mental ill-health are being added to the rolls each month, this proportion is only likely to grow.

The West has a deviancy problem

Our moral confusion is proving suicidal

When and why did American life become so coarse, amoral and ungovernable? In his classic 1993 essay, “Defining Deviancy Down”, the late Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan offered a semantic explanation. He concluded that, as the amount of deviant behaviour increased beyond the levels the community can “afford to recognise”, we have been redefining deviancy so as to exempt conduct we used to stigmatise, while also quietly raising the “normal” level in categories where behaviour is now abnormal by any earlier standard. The reasons behind this, he said, were altruism, opportunism and denial — but the result was the same: an acceptance of mental pathology, broken families and crime as a fact of life.

Britain’s Shameless Appeasement of Islam

You know what it’s like in London, there’s never a mosque around when you need one. I recall the Muslim takeover of SW1 late last year, when thousands of pro-Palestine supporters found themselves caught short, and decided that Downing Street would have to do for a spot of al fresco prayer. As the Adhan blared at a dizzying volume, the Old Bill watched on meekly from the periphery; an arrest about as forthcoming as a bacon sandwich. I remember thinking then, this was not a good look for Britain.

Activism doc ‘Christspiracy’ is furiously condemned for comparing the slaughter of animals for food to the HOLOCAUST

The slaughter of livestock is compared to the Holocaust in a shocking new documentary – which also claims Jesus Christ was crucified for condemning the killing of animals for food in a secret 2,000-year coverup.

Christspiracy: The Spirituality Secret, the follow up to Seaspiracy and Cowspiracy, documents a wealth of somewhat bizarre claims in an attempt to lay bare the cruelty humans inflict on animals in the name of religion, as filmmakers Kip Andersen and Kameron Waters hunt out an ethical or spiritual way to kill.

A child forced to slaughter a young deer as part of a Christian initiation, the mass sacrifice of cows at a Hindu festival in Nepal, and prisoners tasked with killing 3,000 cows a day are just some of the uncomfortable scenes that feature.

Israel Furious After Canada Votes To Halt Arms Exports To Tel Aviv

Canada will impose a ban on arms sales to Israel, the country’s Foreign Minister Melanie Joly announced on Tuesday. “It’s a real thing,” Joly told Canadian newspaper The Toronto Star on Tuesday. The decision follows a vote of 204-117 in the Canadian parliament on Monday in favor of ending the sales. While it originally called for a suspension, it was later changed into a full ban.
