The Biden administration’s two-tiered justice system struck again this week when it did nothing to punish pro-Hamas protestors who defaced a U.S. military cemetery.
The vandals were caught on camera spray-painting the walls of the Los Angeles National Cemetery memorial with anti-Israel rhetoric such as “Free Gaza” and “Intifada.”
An Israeli judge who survived the Holocaust has been sent to represent his country in a UN court against claims it is committing genocide against Palestinians in the war in Gaza.
Aharon Barak, 87, who was smuggled out of a ghetto in a potato sack in 1944 and went on to lead Israel’s supreme court, is heading a delegation that will arrive to begin court proceedings on Thursday morning.
The UN’s International Court of Justice (ICJ), is being asked to rule on whether to open a full case on South Africa’s claim that the country intends to commit genocide in Gaza.
The cops delivering the coffee was the image that went ‘round the world. But long before members of the Toronto Police Department handed over the Tim Hortons goodies to pro-Palestinian protesters who have been targeting a highway overpass adjacent to a neighbourhood with a significant Jewish population, many Canadian Jews have felt unsettled, even unsafe.
To be clear, the officers did not purchase the coffee, but dropped it off on behalf of protest supporters who were not allowed on the overpass. Still, it felt like a scalding metaphor.
OTTAWA — A Liberal MP is calling on her colleagues in the Trudeau government to officially support the prosecution of Israel for genocide by backing a controversial action brought by South Africa at the top United Nations court.
“I call on Canada to support South Africa’s application to the International Court of Justice regarding the current conflict between Israel and Hamas and the impact this conflict is having on the people of Palestine,” Toronto-area MP Salma Zahid wrote in a statement posted on Twitter on Tuesday.
A week after the horrors of October 7, when the Biden administration first convinced Israel to open up the siege of Gaza and allow in international aid, it promised Hamas would not get it.
“If Hamas in any way blocks humanitarian assistance from reaching civilians, including by seizing the aid itself, we’ll be the first to condemn it. And we will work to prevent it from happening again,” Secretary of State Antony Blinken pledged.
The problem with such a promise was obvious once Deputy National Security Advisor Jon Finer struggled to explain to CNN how it would stop Hamas from taking the aid.
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.
Scandalous Indoctrination: Inside a Kings College Counter-Terrorism Course for UK Civil Servants
… The danger of understanding terrorism with cultural relativism is that it breeds moral apathy; the kind that says ‘Who are we, mere democratic, liberal Westerners to impose our morality onto others? Who are we to say our culture is superior to others?’
These are luxury attitudes. It is easy to be sat in Kings College London and feel that all cultures are equal, when you haven’t been anally raped at a peace festival by someone shouting ‘Allahu Akbar’ and held hostage. In the introduction to the course, labeling an organisation as terrorist was described as a problem because it ‘implies a moral judgment’. Nothing was said about why a moral judgment might be appropriate.
Ayman Taher, the imam of Ibrahim Jame Mosque in Hamilton, Ontario and chaplain of the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, praised Hamas founder Ahmed Yassin in a December 18, 2023 speech at the Toronto Palestine House, which was posted on his YouTube channel. In his speech, Taher recommended that the audience watch a 1998 interview with Yassin, in which he predicted that Israel would come to an end in 2027. Taher added that the audience should let their children watch the interview, “because this is a history that needs to be absorbed.” He said that Yassin has inspired the generations to come and that Allah has honored him with martyrdom. Yassin was killed by an Israeli airstrike in 2004.
Yup he really is a chaplain at Sick Kids. Like I keep saying the Hamas lovers are not a Muslim fringe element.

UK and US naval forces have repelled the largest attack yet by Yemen’s Houthi rebels on shipping in the Red Sea, the UK defence secretary says.
The Iran-backed group launched at least 21 drones and missiles overnight, according to the US military.
They were shot down by carrier-based jets and four warships, it added. No injuries or damage were reported.
On the first commuting morning of the first full workweek of 2024, New York’s permanent “protesting” class demonstrated its tactical approach for the year: to make us miserable on our daily trips, even as the city struggles to attract pre-2020 commuting and tourism crowds. Under the rubric of “Shut it Down for Palestine,” a few hundred people on Monday managed, indeed, to shut down all three Lower Manhattan bridges to Brooklyn, as well as the Holland Tunnel to New Jersey, just after the morning rush. They created gridlock that inconvenienced tens of thousands of drivers, bus riders, bike riders, and walkers. Following months of smaller-scale actions, it was agitators’ most disruptive action yet—and organizers will continue to escalate their behavior unless Mayor Eric Adams and Governor Kathy Hochul make clear that blocking key transportation corridors is not “peaceful protest.”
Trudeau government silent on genocide allegations against Israel at UN court
OTTAWA—The federal government is so far staying out of the latest political flashpoint surrounding the war in Gaza, as it remains silent on a contentious accusation being heard this week at the UN’s International Court of Justice that Israel is committing genocide against Palestinians .
The United States and Israel were quick to reject the allegation — which South Africa filed at the ICJ in late December — as groundless and insulting, while other countries have expressed support for the claim, including Turkey, a NATO ally and staunch critic of Israel’s ongoing airstrikes and ground attacks in response to the Hamas atrocities launched from the Gaza Strip on Oct. 7.
Cap on Canada’s new temporary visa program for Palestinians is ‘flexible’: Miller
Canada’s Immigration Minister Marc Miller says the federal government’s stated 1,000-person limit on temporary resident visas for Palestinians looking to flee Gaza is not a hard cap, despite previous suggestions.
In an interview on CTV News Channel’s Power Play, Miller told host Vassy Kapelos that “no,” the limit as previously stated is not set in stone.
Fucking lying scum are going to flood Canada with Muslim terrorists.
Toronto police union says protest cops deserved more support after coffee delivery blowback
The Toronto Police Association said officers who were criticized for delivering coffee to pro-Palestinian protesters over the weekend have been maligned and deserve more support from within the organization.
In a memo to members obtained by the Star, the police union wrote that the officers in question, who it said were working in service of “keeping the peace,” have been unfairly portrayed as “ineffectual and negligent in their duties.”
Canada is now entering its third month of near-constant anti-Israel demonstrations. What began as a series of impromptu parades and rallies celebrating the Oct. 7 massacres has morphed into a coordinated campaign of disruptions and blockades.
The police do the bidding of politicians, that’s their real job Canada. Chow, Ford et al should be called out on this.
In the past few decades, Lebanon has allowed the Hezbollah terror militia and several Palestinian terror groups, including Hamas, to use its territory to plan and launch attacks against Israel. Hezbollah, Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad – the three major officially-designated Foreign Terrorist Organizations operating in Lebanon – are all armed and funded by Iran.
