Detectives launched an emergency operation after being passed details of how activists were intending to launch a co-ordinated plan to prevent the building opening for trading.

If successfully executed this would have thrown global financial markets into turmoil.

Israel Hating MP’s On Hate Junket To West Bank

Liberal, NDP MPs to travel to West Bank to connect with Palestinians

Five Canadian MPs are set to begin a week-long visit to Jordan and the West Bank today to meet with Palestinian refugees and progressive Israeli groups.

The group of MPs landing in Amman, Jordan’s capital, includes Liberal MPs Salma Zahid and Shafqat Ali and New Democrat MPs Heather McPherson (the party’s foreign affairs critic), Matthew Green and Lindsay Mathyssen.

“What we have seen in the last three months is that it is a humanitarian crisis, and the situation also in the West Bank has been worsening,” Zahid, chair of the Canada–Palestine Parliamentary Friendship Group, told CBC News prior to the MPs’ departure.

How pro-Hamas rhetoric infected US high schools

“He alone who owns the youth, gains the future.” (Adolph Hitler, 1935)

We are witness today to anti-Israel and antisemitic protests on college campuses, sometimes violent, always repulsive.

Their rants are passionate, intense, and filled with hate … and misinformation.

Questions are being asked: “How did we get to this point?” “Did it start in college?” Shockingly, the answer is no. The indoctrination begins far earlier … in high schools.

100 days since Hamas attacked Israel, triggering war in Gaza

One hundred days ago, the previously unthinkable happened in Israel. A state, born out of adversity and war only 75 years ago, woke up to what some have since described as a threat to its very existence.

On Saturday night, in Tel Aviv, the events of 7 October were commemorated by thousands of people. Uppermost on the minds of everyone were the around 130 hostages abducted by Hamas and still being held in Gaza, although some of them may not still be alive.

Just after dawn 100 days ago, thousands of heavily armed Hamas fighters stormed through and over the Gaza border fence in several different places.

They attacked kibbutzim, military bases and border towns, accustomed to rocket attacks from Gaza but overwhelmed by the scale of the Hamas incursion.

Protestors chant ‘Yemen Yemen, make us proud, turn another ship around’ as 200,000 march through London

More than 200,000 Pro-Palestinian protesters have started marching through London for the first major demonstration of 2024 — as the Metropolitan Police confirmed it had moved in to make six arrests.

Around 1,700 police officers from the Met and other UK forces have been mobilised amid fears the escalating tension in Yemen will bring more activists to the streets of the capital.

Iran-backed Houthi rebels, whose slogan includes ‘death to Israel’ and ‘curse the Jews’, have targeted commercial ships passing through the Red Sea in a show of solidarity with Palestine.

Rail thin, scared to speak, but free: my daughter’s life after Hamas hostage ordeal

When his nine-year-old daughter Emily first came back home after nearly two months in Hamas captivity, Thomas Hand didn’t let her out of his sight. At night, he would sit up watching her sleep. Whenever she frowned, he’d wake her, worried she was having a nightmare.

The rare times that Emily went out with her two grown-up siblings, he’d put an electronic tracker in her pocket, so that he could follow her on his phone. Each day, he marvelled that she was really there, thin and exhausted, with matted hair and lice, rescued from an ordeal that defies comprehension.

Police say a man waved a terror group’s flag. Here’s why it may be difficult to prosecute as a hate crime

The charge of public incitement of hatred against a Toronto man alleged to have held up what police called a “terrorist” flag during a demonstration last weekend could be difficult to prosecute and highlights the challenges of defining hate crimes, some experts say.

Prosecution of the man police allege waved a flag associated with the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) while marching through the city’s downtown last Sunday will “be a real uphill battle,” said Barbara Perry, director for the Centre on Hate, Bias and Extremism at Ontario Tech University.

Barbara Perry is the twit who made up the Myth of Canada’s 5 million gazillion white supremacist groups, she works with the CAHN the Clown Car of anti-racism.

GOLDSTEIN: The shameless hypocrisy of putting world’s only Jewish state on trial for genocide

Palestinian culture

At the International Court of Justice in the Hague, Israel is on trial for genocide and, once again, is being judged by standards expected of no other country on earth.

The ICJ, in its 78-year history since its founding by the United Nations in 1945, has never issued a direct finding of genocide against any other country.

LILLEY: Trudeau’s cowardly compromise on South Africa accusing Israel of genocide

The Trudeau government’s ongoing craven attempts to play both sides in the Israel-Hamas war truly knows no end.

After Prime Minister Justin Trudeau made vague comments early Friday that would seem to suggest Canada opposed South Africa’s charge of genocide, the full statement came out later in the day.

Peter Menzies: Thanks to Freedom of Expression, Protesters’ True Colours Are Revealed

There are a lot of us who want people in the Islamist-leftist coalitions parading through our cities to be shut up, but where oh where would we be without their freedom of expression?

Without it, the population at large might still be thinking kindly of certain union leaders, MPPs, MLAs, mayors, city councillors, human rights commissioners, journalists, theatre companies, activists, academics, medical doctors, law students, and MPs. Canadians might still be thinking of them—as they have worked so hard to be portrayed—as people dedicated to making the world a happier, more prosperous place in which to live.

I admit I prefer when my enemies tell me exactly who they are.
