“Oct 7 2023”

Israel’s right to defend itself “does not grant us the right to oppress others,” the Israeli newspaper Haaretz once warned in an editorial. Seizing new land requires ruling that land, and rule without representation brings resistance. In turn, it continued, “resistance brings in its wake oppression. Oppression brings in its wake terrorism and counterterrorism.”

Published after the Six-Day War in 1967, it was as true then as it is now. The dire situation Haaretz predicted has, in fact, come to pass. Israel’s willingness to oppress Palestinians and neighbouring states has become not only intolerable but also dangerous to its own survival.

The hallmark of any abuser is how they make blame the victims of their abuse for making them mad. It’s horrific behavior and should not be tolerated. Since the October 7, 2023, terror attacks in Israel, we’ve seen an astronomical rise in antisemitism in America and across the globe. In Australia, Jews celebrating Hanukkah were shot at Bondi Beach. In the U.S., Leftists took over college campuses and harassed Jewish students.

The man who admitted he set a fire at a synagogue in Dollard-des-Ormeaux in 2024 said Tuesday that he was high as a kite and was carrying out “a mission” for another person.

Mohamed Ilyess Akodad, 20, testified before Quebec Court Judge Karine Giguère at the Montreal courthouse during his sentence hearing.

This past weekend, the Canadian Museum for Human Rights (CMHR) unveiled “Palestine Uprooted: Nakba Past and Present,” and the exhibit turned out to be exactly what critics had feared. Instead of providing a balanced historical examination, the exhibit memory-holes key context — including Arab rejection of the UN partition plan and the full scope of the 1948 war — in favour of a politicized, one-sided narrative that focuses on catastrophe and “ongoing dispossession.” And I didn’t even have to visit the exhibit to reach this conclusion. The proof is right there on the museum’s website for anyone willing to compare it with the full historical record.

A charity connected to the controversial group HonestReporting Canada, which claims to expose anti-Israel bias in news media, has launched two court battles against the attempted revocation of its registration by the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA).

HR Canada Charitable Organization (HRCCO) has filed challenges to the revocation in both the Ontario Superior Court of Justice and the Federal Court of Appeal, according to court records obtained by the IJF and Future of Good.

Lot of this sort of proxy war going on.

High-end UK supermarket chain Waitrose stands accused of tolerating antisemitism after an incident at its Harrow branch.

Reportedly, an Orthodox Jewish woman was in the checkout queue on Monday, June 22nd when a “fed-up” fellow shopper began verbally abusing her.

Not sure Britain can be salvaged.

They are billing it as the opening of an exhibit in Winnipeg to show decades of mistreatment of Palestinians.

But there does not seem to be any reference to a display on the execution of Palestinian people by Hamas firing squads on the streets in Gaza in 2025.

All the blame for the plight of Palestinians, instead, seems to be aimed at Israel – all paid for by Canadian taxpayers.
