We are supposed to believe that overnight the PA has changed its spots. After all, Abbas wears a suit.
No more is it between good and bad. Now, for 2024 and beyond, it’s between bad and worse.
Take your pick. For instance, between Hamas and the Palestinian Authority, which is better, which is worse?
Which terrorists, in other words, should get to run Gaza, “the day after?” Biden and his people prefer the PA…the lesser of two evils.
An east London borough led by a controversial mayor has been accused of “multiple criminal offences” over its failure to take down Palestinian flags.
Lawyers have written to the Metropolitan Police over the “proliferation” of flags, as well as posters and stickers, with allegedly inflammatory messages in Tower Hamlets.
Lutfur Rahman, the borough’s mayor, had previously been barred from public office for five years for corruption, but having served his ban was voted back into the post in elections in May 2022.
On Dec. 22, as Ottawa shut down for the holidays, Immigration Minister Marc Miller announced what many in Canada with loved ones in Gaza had been seeking for months: special immigration measures that allow Palestinians with family in Canada to seek temporary refuge here from the bombing, mass displacement, and impending crises of famine and disease in Gaza.
These conditions led Global Affairs Minister Melanie Joly, as early as Oct. 14, to describe Gaza as “one of the worst places on Earth to be right now.”
The policy as announced, however, suffers from serious deficiencies. It excludes the families of Palestinians who are in Canada seeking protection, even if they have already been found to be refugees under Canadian law.

As the war in Gaza enters its third month, the short-attention span syndrome that characterizes our age swings in full gear to reduce it to a version of background noise. You might have noticed that the war is bowing out of front pages and dropped down several slots in TV news bulletins.
Even more interestingly we are beginning to hear growing chatter about the day-after of this tragic conflict, with the assumption that the actual fighting is heading for a close as the subtext.
Pressure mounts on Canada to support South Africa’s legal battle for ceasefire in Gaza
A new legal battle will be waged later this week in the World Court to impose a ceasefire more than three months after Hamas’ attack on southern Israel killed innocent civilians, triggering a brutal war in Gaza where Israel(opens in a new tab) vowed to eradicate Hamas militants.
South Africa is accusing Israel of violating its obligations under the Genocide Convention and is seeking an urgent order from the International Court of Justice (ICJ) to immediately halt what it characterizes as “genocidal acts against the Palestinian people in Gaza.”
The goal is to have Israel labeled a genocidal state, the original CTV weasel headline to the article is in bold above.
It goes without saying that the word “genocide” has a special sound to the people of Israel. Yet today the nation that rose from the ashes of the Holocaust finds itself accused of this ultimate crime against humanity.
Protesters marching against the Israeli military assault in Gaza set fire to Star of David flags and chant “we charge you with genocide.” Activists in Toronto plastered an Indigo store with posters accusing its Jewish owner with “funding genocide.” Now the government of South Africa is going to the International Court of Justice with a claim that Israel is guilty of “genocidal” acts.
There have been assassinations, bombings and hijackings in five countries after the Hamas massacre. Events could spiral out of control
On the warm blue waters of the Strait of Hormuz, a few dozen Yemeni militiamen dressed in wetsuits and carrying Kalashnikovs hijack a British-owned, Japanese-operated ship. A Hamas leader is assassinated in a Beirut suburb. A drone drops an explosive on a US military base in Syria, and an American airstrike kills a militiaman in Baghdad. Hezbollah fires a mortar into farmland in northern Israel.
These might sound like disparate events but together they tell a different story.

Facing mounting criticism for an alleged tolerance of a series of road-closing anti-Israel protests, Toronto police members have sparked renewed outrage thanks to a video showing them delivering coffee to said protestors.
Posted to social media platform ‘X’ at 2 p.m. on Saturday by Toronto lawyer and online commentator Caryma Sa’d, the video shows a Toronto police constable — his face concealed behind a black neck gaiter — delivering a cardboard urn of Tim Hortons coffee and a stack of cups — to anti-Israel protestors occupying the closed Avenue Road bridge over Highway 401.
Protesters at a Free Palestine demonstration clashed with police in London on Saturday.
Metropolitan Police officers attempted to break up the march held over the Israel-Gaza conflict as hundreds of people gathered at a drinking fountain in St James’s Park from noon.
A veteran medical professor at the University of British Columbia (UBC) resigned his academic post citing the school administration’s indifference to campus antisemitism.
Over 200 medical students signed a petition following the 10/7 atrocities denouncing Israel as a “settler colonial state,” guilty of “collective punishment.” The public letter made no reference to Hamas nor the hundreds of Israeli civilians taken hostage by the Palestinian terror group. “UBC’s declared support for decolonization and practices of equity, diversity and inclusion ring hollow in light of this partisan approach,” the document, which was also signed by over 100 faculty members across the university, argued in late October.
The Israeli army says it has “completed the dismantling” of Hamas’s command structure in the northern Gaza Strip.
Army spokesman Daniel Hagari told reporters that Palestinian militants are now operating in the area only sporadically and “without commanders”.
He said Israel had killed around 8,000 militants in north Gaza. The BBC cannot independently verify this number.
History teaches us that when anti-Semitism isn’t confronted, Jews won’t be the only victims.
They’ll be the first victims, but the hatred will metastasize and spread to others.
Goldstein is correct historically however in Canada anti-White hatred was made socially acceptable these past few years and this paved the way for today’s open anti-semitism.
After years of abusing whites abusing Jews is just 2nd nature in Trudeau’s Canada.

It was a belated awakening. For many American Jews, Oct. 7 uncovered the deep rot in the elite institutions they had invested in for decades, psychically and financially. A recent poll found that 73% of Jewish students experienced or witnessed antisemitic incidents since the beginning of this academic school year, a 22-fold increase over the year before. Jewish students have been punched, spat upon, assaulted with sticks, shouted at, and corralled by students in kaffiyehs.
But it shouldn’t have come as a surprise that the DEI regime has fostered the flourishing of campus antisemitism under the Palestinian banner. Having established Jews as members of the “oppressor” class and defined “justice” as the dismantling of this class, the officially sanctioned ideology has given license to the Palestinian vanguard to demand fulfillment of the progressive promise, “by any means necessary,” while turning Jewish students into piñatas.
