Arrests were made as pro-Palestinian protesters chanted “f— your Jewish state” in central London on Saturday.
Pro-Israel counter-protesters chanted “there is no genocide” at thousands of pro-Palestinian demonstrators.
Marchers gathered across the country calling for the ban on Palestine Action to be reversed, amid police warnings that those showing support for the proscribed group faced arrest.
Antisemitism is iniquitous in all its forms, but it is especially wicked when it is teachers directing the ancient hatred at innocent children.
And yet it appears Ontario schools are a hotbed of antisemitism where teachers are taking a leading role in targeting Jewish students.
Purge the teacher’s colleges and teacher ranks, take over the schoolboards, suspend the unions and remove any vestige of DEI/CRT from the curriculum.
The IDF published footage showing strikes by its aircraft on the Syrian Military General Staff headquarters in Damascus.
The IDF noted that the military headquarters in Damascus is the location from which Syrian regime commanders direct combat operations and deploy regime forces to the As-Suwayda area.
Additionally, a military target in the area of the Syrian regime’s presidential palace in Damascus was struck.
The previous airstrike on the MoD building was only on the entrance, wounding a guard there.
Now Israel carried out a direct airstrike on the MoD building.

At least 20 people have been killed in a crush at an aid distribution centre in southern Gaza run by the US- and Israel-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), the organisation and a local hospital say.
The GHF said 19 were trampled to death and one was stabbed “amid a chaotic and dangerous surge” at its site in the Khan Younis area. It added that it believed people “armed and affiliated with Hamas” fomented unrest.
But Gaza’s Hamas-run Government Media Office denied the claim and accused the GHF of trying to “cover up” a crime.
The European Union insists that it doesn’t want to “punish” Israel over its fight against Hamas terrorists, yet it appears to be on the edge of its seat waiting for an opportune moment to break all ties.
At a press conference on Tuesday afternoon following a meeting between European foreign ministers, the bloc’s top diplomat Kaja Kallas said “we see positive signs” on increased humanitarian aid access to Gaza, as per an EU-Israel deal struck last week. She pointed in particular to there being more trucks and supplies entering Gaza, as well as to the repairing of electricity supply points.
In separate statements over the past week, senior officials of the Iran-backed Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) said that their terror groups “will not surrender.” The statements came as the Trump administration continued its efforts to end the war in the Gaza Strip and secure the release of 50 Israeli hostages held by the terror groups. Twenty of the hostages are believed to be alive, while the remaining 30 are presumed dead. The hostages were kidnapped during the October 7, 2023 Hamas-led invasion of Israel. At least 1,200 Israelis and foreign nationals were murdered that day, and thousands wounded.
Toronto police have charged four protesters who allegedly broke into an MP’s constituency office in April.
On April 24, police said, several people were demonstrating outside the office near Keele Street and Lawrence Avenue West before they forced their way inside.
The group allegedly occupied the area and caused staff members to fear for their safety, police said.
Ya’ara Saks office I believe. The article doesn’t say. Surprised at the mask charge, is that a first?
Canadian university administrators should remember that they too can be held accountable for genocide complicity.
“Universities worldwide, under the guise of research neutrality, continue to profit from an [Israeli] economy now operating in genocidal mode. Indeed, they are structurally dependent on settler-colonial collaborations and funding.”
This is what United Nations Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese wrote in her latest report “From economy of occupation to economy of genocide”, which documents the financial tentacles of Israel’s ongoing genocide in Gaza and beyond. Its release prompted the United States’ governing regime to issue sanctions against Albanese in a move the Italian legal scholar rightly described as “obscene” and “mafia intimidation tactics”.
A six-year-old child’s teacher told her she was “half human” because one of her parents was Jewish – one of nearly 800 antisemitic incidents in the Ontario elementary and high school system since 2023 reported to a federally commissioned survey.
Others included a 13-year-old girl being swarmed several times a day by classmates who raised their hands in a Nazi salute even as she begged them to stop, and Jewish children told by their teachers they were baby-killers for supporting Israel in its war with the militant group Hamas.
Anti-Semitism has become normalised in middle-class Britain, a Government-backed report has found.
The review, co-authored by Lord Mann, the Government’s anti-Semitism adviser, and Dame Penny Mordaunt, the former defence secretary, warned that Jewish people in the UK were suffering increasing prejudice “in our professions, cultural life [and] public services” and felt they were “tolerated rather than being respected”.
The report, commissioned by the Board of Deputies of British Jews, the country’s largest Jewish community organisation, found anti-Semitism to be pervasive in the NHS, at universities and in the arts.
Since 7 October and the beginning of Israel’s war against Hamas, Western ‘progressives’ have rounded on the Jewish State. On the streets and in the media, the volume and intensity of the loathing towards Israel, and invariably towards Jews, has often been overwhelming.
OTTAWA — Canadian observers are applauding the U.S. move to sanction a controversial UN rapporteur, while one Jewish affairs group is calling on Canada to completely divest itself from her.
Francesca Albanese, the UN’s Human Rights Council’s Special Rapporteur for West Bank and Gaza, was sanctioned by the U.S. State Department on Wednesday — with Secretary of State Marco Rubio calling out her “illegitimate and shameful efforts” to convince the International Criminal Court to take action against American and Israeli officials, companies and executives.

Support for Hamas and Hezbollah? I’m surprised they didn’t headline Canada Day festivities.
OTTAWA — The Palestinian ambassador to Canada says she feels Ottawa is on the brink of officially recognizing statehood for her people, as she also takes note of tougher language from Canada on Israel’s actions in Gaza.
“Accountability means everything to the Palestinian people. That’s all we are looking for,” said Mona Abuamara, who is at the end of her four-year term as the chief representative of the Palestinian General Delegation to Canada.
Since the Hamas-Israel war began on October 7, 2023, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have discovered an estimated 90 tunnels crossing under the border between the Gaza Strip and Egypt. The tunnels have been used by Hamas and other Palestinian terror groups to smuggle rockets and weapons into the Gaza Strip. According to Israeli military sources, there may be additional tunnels that have not been discovered. There are also concerns that the tunnels could be used to smuggle terrorists into Gaza.
The smuggling, which increased after Hamas’s violent and brutal takeover of the Gaza Strip in 2007, took place under the watchful eyes of Egypt, if not with its willing assistance.
Some were awoken in their beds in kibbutzim by shooting. Others were dancing at dawn at a music festival in the Negev desert. Among the approximately 1,200 people slaughtered in the most brutal attack on Israel in its history were found the bodies of young women stripped and tied to trees and poles, shot through their genitals and in the head.
Sexual violence was “widespread and systematic” during the October 7 attack, rape and gang rape occurring in at least six different locations, according to a report using testimony never heard before now. But most victims were “permanently silenced”, either murdered during the assaults or left too traumatised to talk. About 1,200 people were killed in the attack.
It’s what devout Muslims do.
