2011…It seems like a century ago. I could dig through the archives for more similar headlines. But it has actually become annoying to be right in hindsight. Last week’s pogrom in Amsterdam should be the final wake-up call for Dutch Jews, but I doubt it will be.
The Chief Rabbi of the Great Synagogue of Paris, Moshe Sebbag, recently called for departure: “There is no future for Jews in France. I tell all young people to go to Israel or to a safer country.”
OTTAWA — One-hundred and eleven organizations are behind Canada’s worrying spike in antisemitism since last October’s Hamas terror attacks, a new report suggests.
And foremost in the report’s conclusions, released last week by Jerusalem-based think tank NGO Monitor, is a worrying lack of financial transparency with Canada’s nonprofits and charities, leading to groups subsisting on money from dubious or even illegal sources.
An Ottawa school played an Arabic-language Palestinian protest song associated with fighting in Gaza as the soundtrack to its Remembrance Day presentation, causing outrage and distress for some students and parents.
… Principal Aaron Hobbs defended the selection during one of those meetings, saying it was chosen to bring diversity and inclusion to Remembrance Day that is usually only about “a white guy who has done something related to the military.”
A Syrian asylum seeker is set to be deported from Sweden after a shocking video showed him pushing a 91-year-old woman down a flight of stairs in an attack that is set to reignite the country’s debate over migration.
Karam Kanjo, 26, was caught on CCTV assaulting the elderly victim as she made her way to her husband’s grave on August 29 this year.
Footage showed Kanjo – who entered Sweden during Europe’s migrant crisis in 2015 and was on parole after raping another woman – grabbing his elderly victim on a flight of stairs in Sollentuna station, eight miles northwest of Stockholm.
Swedes are outraged by a new video showing the 26-year-old Syrian asylum seeker Karam Kanjo robbing a 91-year-old Swedish woman of the necklace she was gifted by her husband 50 years ago.

To counter antisemitism, Canadians must first be able to recognize it
By now, many Canadians are aware of the epidemic of antisemitism spreading across our country, and indeed, around the world. The violent antisemitic pogrom in Amsterdam last week – echoing the Kristallnacht pogrom that preceded the Holocaust – is merely the latest terrifying iteration of the explosion of global antisemitism.
Even before the Oct. 7 atrocities unleashed this global tsunami of anti-Jewish hate, here in Canada antisemitism was at the highest levels in recent history.
In the words of the late prime minister Brian Mulroney, “In the wake of the Holocaust … firewalls were thrown up, and the bonfires of antisemitism were for a time reduced to flickering embers. But those firewalls, weakened by the passage of time and willful neglect, have been breached. Cloaked in the armour of free speech, fuelled by hate and stoked by the oxygen of the internet and social media, those fires now burn out of control.”
The elites who brazenly insist we Yobs need to learn how to recognize our antisemitism are really attempting to shift blame for the current sorry state of affairs off their shoulders onto ours.
In Canada’s dingy corridors of power the Zionists trod the same rugs as the anti-Zionists. They belong to the same political parties and the same faculties, work for the same bureaucracies. Whether in government or the academy the worst purveyors of antisemitism are members of their community not ours. It’s their imported Muslim storm troopers who hijack our streets not Mom & Pop Canadian. The only time they pretend to be equals is well never really but occasionally a rubber stamp is required and some pantomime consultation is offered up as democracy. Otherwise we just take up space in their world and they don’t like us at all.
Deborah Lyons was hired as Antisemitism Tsarina by a Liberal party better suited to governing Gaza. That same Liberal Party has spent the last decade calling us racists and Islamophobes for pointing out the madness of their tolerance of a death cult.
Our “thought-leaders” wielded diversity and multiculturalism like clubs to silence dissent as they imported millions from incompatible cultures forever altering Canada’s demographic and not for the better.
I doubt the shiny new replacement Canadians they foisted on us will be very receptive to a lecture on antisemitism given they don’t give a whit for our heritage, culture and values.
But our Grand Poobah’s weren’t through hating us.
They decided it necessary to demonize the white working class with the application of their racist DEI programs. Our children are taught they are racist oppressors because their skin is white. Fine people from all sides of the Israeli-Arab divide have embraced DEI.
Now they have the nerve to offer us a teachable moment about our “antisemitism”.
A soldier accused of spying for Iran has pleaded guilty to escaping from prison under a food catering truck and going on the run for four days while he was awaiting trial.
Daniel Khalife, 23, from Kingston, southwest London, changed his plea to the prison escape charge, halfway through giving evidence at Woolwich crown court.
He faces cross-examination on the spying charges in Monday’s hearing.
A vigil planned in Mississauga to honour dead Hamas terrorist leaders has desecrated Canada’s revered Remembrance Day symbols.
And so those who love terrorists now freely mock Canada and disdain what we value and cherish. In boldly appropriating a symbol reserved for our veterans — both the living and the dead — men and women who bravely rose to many challenges and sacrificed so much in so many places for so long for Canada, they insult us all. Which of course is part of the plan, to show elsewhere how tamely Canadians accept the contempt of others.
The SAS will mount its biggest security operation in London in more than forty years due to the threat of a terror attack at the National Service of Remembrance.
They will be at the Cenotaph watching over the thousands of veterans, members of the public and dignitaries who will meet at Whitehall at 11am.
It is understood to be the largest deployment in London since the Iranian Embassy Siege in 1980 – though exact numbers have not been disclosed for security reasons.
Twenty years ago this month, a Dutch Islamist named Mohamed Bouyeri slaughtered filmmaker and prominent Islam critic Theo van Gogh on the streets of Amsterdam. The second-generation Dutch-born Moroccan shot the older provocateur several times, then slit his throat. Bouyeri, now serving a life sentence, said he did it for Allah. Ayaan Hirsi Ali, a Muslim apostate and friend of Van Gogh’s, had to go into hiding for her life after Bouyeri threatened to kill her too.
If you publicly criticized Islam, it wasn’t safe for you to walk on the streets of Amsterdam in 2004. Things have changed since then. As we saw on Thursday night, now all it takes to get you ambushed by violent Muslims in Amsterdam is to be a fan of an Israeli football team. Well, the Netherlands always has prided itself on ‘progress.’
Today, a large part of the Amsterdam police force is made up of second-generation migrants from North Africa and the Middle East. They do not care about Jews’ safety. And it will be that way all over Europe.
I’ve written about it so much that the crazy scenes in Amsterdam felt like déjà vu.
In Amsterdam we have seen scenes that should shock Europe forever: hundreds of Jews were hunted down and beaten by the Muslim crowd after a soccer match between Maccabi Tel Aviv and Ajax. Whether it was a spontaneous explosion or an organized attack, the latter being the most likely, Israelis were injured and Israel was sending emergency flights on Shabbat to evacuate its citizens.
Say it again: Israel was sending emergency flights on Shabbat to evacuate its citizens. Not from Yemen or Syria or Iran or Kabul. No, from Amsterdam.
There are few things more vile than hijacking the poppy to honour the death of a murderous terror leader. But it has happened. It seems, there’s no shame or honour anymore.
The Torah‘s ethical and moral laws, which became known to the world as Moses’ Ten Commandments, founded the West’s moral-ethical precepts on which its laws and judicial concepts such as justice and mercy are based. This development is reflected in the United States’ founding documents, as well as England’s Magna Carta of 1215, among others.
Twenty men who raped girls as young as 12 as part of a West Yorkshire grooming gang have been jailed.
The group sexually abused and exploited four children aged between 12 and 16 in the Calderdale area from 2001 to 2010.
They have now been jailed for between three and a half and 22 years following “multiple extremely complex and sensitive investigations into a number of separate allegations”. The men’s identities can be revealed for the first time after reporting restrictions imposed because of there being several separate trials were lifted on Wednesday.
