Former federal NDP candidate Yavar Hameed, a human rights lawyer from Ottawa, is threatening to bring a private prosecution against Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Hameed claims Israel is committing war crimes against Palestinians, and since Trudeau is supporting Israel, the PM is abetting war crimes.
The fragile ceasefire between Israel and Hamas was back on track Sunday as the militants freed 17 more hostages, including 14 Israelis, in the third set of releases under a four-day ceasefire deal.
Red Cross representatives transferred the hostages out of Gaza. Some were handed over directly to Israel, while others left through Egypt. Israel’s army said one was airlifted directly to an Israeli hospital.
Tommy Robinson has been arrested today as he joined thousands of protesters who gathered in London to protest against antisemitism across the UK.
The English Defence League founder was seen being escorted away from the march by police after arguing with officers for around 10 minutes outside Soho coffee shop opposite the Royal Courts of Justice.
Prior to his arrest, the Mr Robinson said: ‘Met Police attempting to intimidate me and stop me from reporting on the antisemitism march happening today in London. Absolute disgrace @metpoliceuk.’
The Met Police has been in frequent contact this week with the march’s organisers who had raised concerns that Mr Robinson attending would ’cause fear for other participants’.

I guess things can’t be that bad if the organizers can afford to cast out would be allies deemed undesirable.
Hundreds of “radicalized” kids rampaged through the halls of a Queens high school this week for nearly two hours after they discovered a teacher had attended a pro-Israel rally — forcing the terrified educator to hide in a locked office as the teen mob tried to push its way into her classroom, The Post has learned.

This is pretty fecked.
The German security authorities carried out raids against suspected supporters of Hamas — a militant Islamist organization categorized as a terrorist organization by Germany, the EU, and some other countries — and the Samidoun Palestinian Prisoner Solidarity Network this week. Properties were searched in four states, with a focus on Berlin.
The move is an attempt to enforce the ban issued by German Interior Minister Nancy Faeser on November 2. “By banning Hamas and Samidoun in Germany, we have sent a clear signal that we will not tolerate any kind of glorification or support for Hamas’ barbaric terror against Israel,” said Faeser about the raids.
The hostages-for-a-humanitarian-pause deal between Israel and Hamas has been cheered as an important step towards peace. But is there really much to celebrate about a deal, accepted by Israel under Western pressure, which in wider terms can only benefit the genocidal Islamists in their war to wipe out the world’s sole Jewish state?
Israeli troops adopt a ‘back to basics’ approach in their cat-and-mouse battle with Hezbollah near the Lebanon border
The shockwave from the Israeli gun shatters the peace of the abandoned kibbutz, just a mile from the Lebanon border.
A second comes a few seconds later, followed quickly by a third.
The bangs arrive simultaneously with the punch of the blasts – it suggests the artillery is close.
But you’d have to work hard to spot them.
The impact of the terror attacks in Israel on October 7 has been so severe that there are now “before October 7” and “after October 7” eras. The world is not the same. The issue of jihad war, and the evidence of 1,400 years of expansionary jihad violence, is in focus. What Hamas did on October 7 may be new to the West, but it has many historic antecedents. It is part of what jihad is. In the recent past, we saw it with the Islamic State; even now, Christians in Africa are experiencing a genocide at the hands of brutal jihadists. But now jihad has, once again, struck Israel, the only democracy in the Middle East.
Expanding the offence of ‘glorifying terrorism’ would threaten all of our free speech.
Many have been shocked by the unwillingness of London’s Metropolitan Police to intervene in the ongoing pro-Palestine demos, despite the hate that is so often spewed on them.
According to Met commissioner Mark Rowley, this is because protesters calling for ‘jihad’ or chanting ‘From the river to the sea’ (a coded call for the destruction of Israel) have not committed any crime. Neither chant amounts to the criminal offence of ‘glorifying terrorism’ – that is, to the direct encouragement of terrorist acts or support for a proscribed organisation, such as Hamas. If the UK government wants to tackle such speech, Rowley argues, our terror laws ‘may need redrawing’.
Two men accused of spying for Israel were executed in the West Bank, with their bodies dragged through alleys before being hung from a pylon by a cheering mob.
The two men were shot dead in the West Bank city of Tulkarm on Friday by members of Palestinian armed groups.
A Palestinian journalist in the camp, speaking on condition of anonymity for fear of reprisals, said the men were beaten and stomped on by residents before being hung up from an electrical tower and then dumped in a skip.

… What we are seeing in Canada is not merely a dramatic rise — or rather a reveal — of antisemitism at all levels of society, it is a horrifying (and annoying) revelation for many Jews my age that our parents were right. This stuff doesn’t just go away with the passage of time. It is always there under the surface and it comes up for air when people are hurting — whether the source of that hurt is a recession, a global pandemic, or a war.
Still hoping the crocodile will eat her last.
It’s time to impose a moratorium on the allocation of public funds to non-profit organizations in the United States that support Hamas, the designated terror organization responsible for the Oct. 7 massacre that resulted in the murder of more than 1,400 Israelis. Not only is the organization an inveterate enemy of Jews, Israel, and the United States, but Hamas also currently holds at least nine American citizens hostage in the Gaza Strip.
Israel on Saturday confirmed the identities of 13 Gaza hostages released from Hamas captivity on Saturday, bringing the total of hostages released as part of the truce deal to 26.
Late in the afternoon on Friday (morning here in Canada), as the sun was setting over the Gaza Strip, 13 hostages kidnapped by Hamas were handed over to the Red Cross, loaded into ambulances and transported safely to Egypt, before making their way back to Israel. In exchange, 39 Palestinian prisoners, some of whom participated in stabbing attacks against Israelis, gain their freedom. Despite appearances that Hamas is coming out on top here, it is a necessary sacrifice on the part of the Israelis.
Hamas delays release of second group of hostages; Israeli security sources warn ground operations will resume if hostages are not released by midnight.
Israeli security sources have warned that if Hamas delays the release of the second group of hostages, Israel will resume ground operations in Gaza.
Earlier on Saturday, Hamas’ military arm said that it decided to delay the release of the second group of hostages, until Israel “meets the terms of the agreement to allow humanitarian aid trucks into northern Gaza.”
According to the security sources, on Friday as well “Hamas played during the last moments, and changed the route by which the hostages would be transferred, in opposition to what had been planned.”
