Israel’s military claimed on Sunday that the brother of the recent Michigan synagogue attacker was a Hezbollah commander responsible for managing weapons in a unit that has launched “hundreds of rockets toward Israeli civilians”.
In a statement posted on X, the IDF claimed that Ibrahim Mohamad Ghazali – brother of Ayman Mohamad Ghazali – was a Hezbollah commander within a specialized branch of the Badr unit.
Hate crimes against Muslims are almost twice as likely to result in prosecution than those against Jews, figures have revealed for the first time.
The rate of the offences targeting Muslims that resulted in a charge or summons was 6.7 per cent in the year to March 2025, equivalent to one in 15 offences recorded by the police.
However, just 3.8 per cent of anti-Jewish hate crimes led to a charge or summons in the same 12-month period, which was one in 26.
An explosion at an orthodox Jewish school in Amsterdam on Saturday was “a deliberate attack against the Jewish community” and a “cowardly act of aggression”, the city’s mayor said.
The overnight attack on a school in Buitenveldert, an upmarket district in the south of Amsterdam with many Jewish businesses and synagogues, damaged an external wall of the building. There were no injuries.
Last week, gunfire struck three synagogues in the Greater Toronto Area. We have grown accustomed to the response: hollow expressions of sympathy, feeble condemnations and the familiar promise that the city stands with the Jewish community.
But what is unfolding in Toronto is not an abstract rise in hateful rhetoric. It is the steady normalization of violence against Jews, and the city’s leadership appears determined to ignore the reality that we are at risk of a mass-casualty attack targeting the Jewish community.
The rot runs deep. Chow is just one public symptom.
The Israeli ambassador to Canada called the country “one of the centres of antisemitism globally” during a visit to a Thornhill, Ont., synagogue that was shot at last week.
While Ambassador Iddo Moed noticed “a rising trend in antisemitism” following his arrival in Canada in August 2023, it was after the October 7 terror attacks on Israel that a “dramatic spike” occurred, he said.

Prime Minister Mark Carney’s statement on Saturday, in response to yet more gunfire aimed at Canadian synagogues — this time in Toronto and Thornhill, just north of the city — was notable for one reason: It did not aver that “there is no place in Canada” for what had happened, or use any similar verbiage. It was a tiny mercy in a very unnerving time. At this point, the phrase has transcended cliché and entered the realm of the offensively meaningless. Yet somehow politicians’ communication advisers still keep churning it out.
Nothing is being done because the elites who created this mess would have to implicate themselves.
Once they find a way to blame it on the proles well look out!
And believe me their trying …

We have been painted as ‘white oppressors’ with our own history of persecution erased
” …The need to constantly define and negotiate with others about racism, religious hatred, and cultural intolerance demonstrates how lost society has become. The Jewish community believed that if we spoke in the language of progressives and their ideology of DEI, we would be accepted as a minority that deserves a spot at the table. Instead, we have been painted as “white oppressors” with our own history of persecution erased.”
He doesn’t condemn the racist foundation of DEI and call for it to be dismantled. Instead he expresses disappointment that Jews were painted as White oppressors under DEI despite efforts to be accepted as official members of the racist club that claims the right to perpetually condemn White people as evil just for the colour of their skin.
Doesn’t that imply he’s fine with DEI’s ongoing hatred of White people and would be doubly so had only his team won a seat at the table?
That’s some blind spot … at the table.
Ho-hum. Here we go again. Just another day in Toronto, another attack on the Jewish community. Just last week, in separate shootings, three synagogues and two Jewish-owned enterprises were fired on, not to mention antisemitic incidents elsewhere in Canada and the torrent of antisemitic venom online which goes under the radar. We know where this can lead.
Since the synagogue shootings of last week a number of articles have appeared calling for Carney and other of our elites to publicly denounce antisemitism.
I just can’t figure who the intended audience is for these proposed Great Man speeches.
It certainly isn’t going to sway the Muslims nor will it change the minds of their useful-idiot “anti-Zionists” who have been well and truly indoctrinated by DEI.
The 3rd World migrants our elites import for cheap labour have no shared history and no reason to listen.
Bad immigration policy, the officially approved racism of DEI, the erasure of Canada’s history and heritage, the extreme-left capture of our education system and the embrace of identity politics all point to Canada’s antisemitism problem being the handiwork of Canada’s elites as if it were all part of the plan.
Carney may as well scream at himself in the mirror.

“… The calls for leadership grow tiresome, having taken on a performative air of outrage without action. There can be no more bland pledges to oppose all forms of hate, or statements that disguise antisemitism as anti-Zionism. Real conviction is needed. It starts with political, police, business and religious leaders speaking loudly in a single voice, without equivocation, that antisemitism is wrong and will not be tolerated in our communities.”
Geist advocated for the import of Syrian refugees.
He now calls for “real conviction” from our elites to end antisemitism somehow forgetting that these same grandees opened the door to mass Islamist immigration, allowed our schools and universities to become extreme left indoctrination centres and continue to coddle the Mohammedans at every turn.
Guess what? The Muslims and the rest of the 3rd World the elites callously imported have no intention to listen to your imagined “Leaders”.
The average Canadian is not antisemitic but he sure despises the criminals responsible for immigration policy.
What’s happening today is the creation of our elites. Geist would be wise to open his eyes and point the blame at those who share the the bubble he lives in.
A gunman has opened fire near an Orthodox Jewish synagogue in Baltimore.
Shots rang out near the Agudath Israel of Baltimore in the city’s quiet Glen neighborhood just after 12.30pm Tuesday.
A Baltimore police officer was struck in the incident, the force said. The officer was transported to University of Maryland Medical Center’s Shock Trauma center.
So far only one cop and the shooter are said to be wounded.

It looks like critics who were worried about whether there would be bias in the Canadian Museum for Human Rights (CMHR) exhibit “Palestine Uprooted: Nakba Past and Present” had cause to be concerned, after all.
When the exhibit, which opens in June, was originally announced last November, I reached out to the museum’s spokesperson, Amanda Gaudes, to inquire about the makeup of the Palestinian Content Advisory Network (PCAN), given that, as per a press release from the Palestinian Canadian Congress, the group played a “central role in making this exhibit possible.” At the time, Gaudes would not reveal who the members were, only that, “It is standard museum protocol to work with advisory networks.”
Three Toronto-area synagogues were hit by gunfire in the span of one week last week. No one was obtuse enough to express “shock.”
These acts are not shocking when one Toronto synagogue has been vandalized 10 times in 18 months. When swastikas were spray-painted on three Jewish-owned businesses in Montreal – and on a synagogue in Winnipeg, and two in Halifax, and another in Montreal. It’s not shocking when a Jewish student in Halifax was bullied out of his school, where classmates taunted him with labels of “Jewboy” and “Jewseph.” When a Jewish girls’ school in Toronto has been shot at multiple times. When a Jewish woman was stabbed in an Ottawa grocery store known for its large kosher section. When Toronto protests about the war in Gaza somehow, repeatedly, end up marching through Jewish residential areas.
This is the current state of play … it’s too late. Canadian cities look like NYC to me.
Liberal white people will literally tell you to stop being “Islamophobic” while Muslims launch bombs over their heads…

Federal Public Safety Minister Gary Anandasangeree says Ottawa will address complaints from Jewish groups about delayed funding for security measures and will tighten its hate laws, after bullets were fired at three Toronto-area synagogues over the past week.
“When they attack a synagogue, they attack Canada,” Mr. Anandasangeree told reporters on Sunday in front of the Shaarei Shomayim synagogue, which was shot at in the early hours of Saturday morning in the North York area of Toronto. Minutes earlier, a synagogue in nearby Thornhill, Beth Avraham Yoseph of Toronto, had also been targeted.
The leaders of several Jewish organizations in the Toronto area are calling for urgent action after three synagogues were hit by gunfire in the past week.
“Canada is at a crossroads,” said Noah Shack, CEO of the Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs (CIJA). “We’re not going anywhere, and we need every Canadian of conscience to stand up with us for our fundamental Canadian values so that we can ensure that the Canada, the Ontario, and the city of Toronto that we want to see in the future comes to fruition.”
I honestly, HONESTLY thought this was AI at first.

It happened. Shots were fired Friday night at my synagogue, Shaarei Shomayim. To be honest, I have been expecting this. It is not as if this area, like every other Jewish neighbourhood, has not had an increased police presence for over two years. Indeed, I wonder if the increased presence of security personnel may have made this neighbourhood seem like more of a target.
