“The Killing Roads is a gripping documentary that exposes the terror unleashed on October 7, 2023, when Hamas launched coordinated attacks across the roads of southern Israel. Through raw, unfiltered stories from victims, survivors, and first responders, the film reveals the unimaginable violence that turned Israel’s peaceful roads into scenes of horror. The Killing Roads captures the devastating reality of those who endured this nightmare.”

The Muslim Association of Britain (MAB) has always denied being an extremist organisation, yet there can be little dispute as to the extremist views of its most “significant” director.
Anas Altikriti, who was president of the MAB from 2004 to 2005, has described the mass slaughter and rape of Israeli citizens on Oct 7 2023 as “a lie” and called the taking of hostages “a very important part” of any “act of resistance”.
The MAB has tried to distance itself from Mr Altikriti, saying he “does not speak for, nor represent the views of the MAB”.
Mohsen Mahdawi, 34, was released from custody following an order from US District Judge Geoffrey Crawford, with the defiant protester sending a message to President Trump and his administration immediately after his release.
“I am saying it clear and loud to President Trump and his cabinet: I am not afraid of you,” Mahdawi said outside the Vermont courtroom.
On April 26, a group of unelected Palestinian Authority (PA) officials approved the appointment of Hussein al-Sheikh as “Deputy Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) and Vice President of the [non-existent] State of Palestine.”
PA President Mahmoud Abbas, who also serves as chairman of the PLO Executive Committee, had nominated the 64-year-old al-Sheikh for this position in accordance with a decision by the Palestinian Central Council, a body dominated by Abbas loyalists, to create the position of “Deputy Chairman of the PLO Executive Committee and Vice President of the State of Palestine.”
Youth Demand demonstrators have thrown red powder paint on Tower Bridge during the London Marathon.
The group, which is calling for a trade embargo on Israel, said two of its supporters jumped over the barriers and threw the substance in front of the men’s elite race at around 10.35am.
>An image shared by Youth Demand shows two people standing in the middle of the road wearing T-shirts emblazoned with the message: “Youth Demand: Stop Arming Israel”.
After nearly a decade of Liberal government, we are watching history repeat itself. Synagogues are being burned, schools shot at, businesses attacked, and hatred paraded openly through our streets. These are not isolated incidents — they are warnings. And ignoring them now would be a deadly mistake.
This election is not just political. For Jewish Canadians, it is existential. Our future in this country hinges on choosing leadership willing to act decisively against rising hate.
A passionate argument but not a universally accepted viewpoint.
ANALYSIS: Are Canadian Jews really moving to the Conservatives?
There isn’t much evidence for the supposed rightward shift among Jewish voters — or for its impact
And …
I’m a Jewish Canadian, and I won’t be voting for Pierre Poilievre
Commentators in the mainstream media have suggested that most Jews voting for the Conservatives under Pierre Poilievre are doing so largely on the basis of the party’s policies on antisemitism and Israel. The CBC’s flagship news program, The National, carried perhaps the definitive take on this theme earlier this week.
I believe it is too late in the game. The Canadian state and its political class have chosen a side and it isn’t Israel’s.
Our elites are guilty of importing a violent incompatible culture – Islam. They know it.
And now they cultivate the Muslim vote to save their skins.
PS. Jews voting Liberal remind me of the commies who refused to believe Stalin was a mass murdering lunatic despite Khrushchev’s denunciation.
Oh, academia, you never cease to amaze. Just when you think the ivory tower couldn’t sink any lower into the swamp of performative virtue, along comes Mount Saint Vincent University (MSVU) in Halifax, gleefully tossing honorary doctorates at Judy and Larry Haiven like confetti at a woke wedding. Why, you ask? For their “pro-Palestine work” through Independent Jewish Voices Canada (IJV), a group that’s less about Jewish voices and more about providing a flimsy fig leaf for some of the most unsavory characters in the anti-Israel circus. Buckle up, folks—this one’s a masterclass in how to make your university look pathetic while exposing a deeper rot in education.
I am prioritizing parties’ and politicians’ stances on Gaza when I vote in the federal election on April 28 — but please, don’t call me a single-issue voter.
As a Palestinian Canadian, Gaza feels like the best test I can use to gauge a politician’s actual commitment to human rights. The core principle behind human rights is that they are universal (apply to everyone) and inalienable (cannot be taken away). Over the past 18 months, I have watched Israel violate just about every human right that I learned about in school, while so many Canadian politicians stayed silent. If a politician isn’t willing to fight for the human rights of Palestinians, how can we trust they’ll defend Canadian rights? You might think our existing laws safeguard your rights against those who would take them away, but I’m sure many Americans thought the same thing about due process, too. Things can change fast.
The Hebrew word mechdal has no precise equivalent in English. It signifies a great catastrophe for which human beings are responsible by inaction, error, or irresponsibility. The Yom Kippur War of 1973, which began when an unprepared IDF was taken by surprise by simultaneous Syrian and Egyptian attacks, has often been referred to as a mechdal. The October 7, 2023, attack was an even greater mechdal.
The more you learn about the events of that day, the more it seems that almost everything that could go wrong did go wrong. In fact, things could easily have gone far worse.
As the war in the Gaza Strip is about to enter its 20th month, the Iran-backed Hamas terrorist group has once again repeated its refusal to disarm. It says the weapons are needed to continue its fight against Israel. Those who believe that Hamas would ever agree to lay down its weapons are living in a dream world. There is, unfortunately, only one way to convince Hamas to disarm: military force.
Recently, two senior Hamas officials, Mahmoud Mardawi and Bassam Naim, announced their group’s absolute rejection of any proposal related to laying down its weapons. They said that other Palestinian terrorist groups in the Gaza Strip also reject any plan to disarm.
In my neighbourhood where many Jewish Canadians live, there is still a Toronto police mobile field command unit operating in the parking lot of a prominent Jewish day school, set up in the wake of Hamas’ terrorist attack on Israel on Oct. 7, 2023.
A teenager sentenced after attacking a rabbi in broad daylight last month in Orléans—while the rabbi was walking home from synagogue with his nine-year-old son—was already under investigation for three other serious offences, despite being in France for less than a year.
“Out! Out! Out!”
The voice in the Telegram video is insistent. Loud. Sometimes musical.
And the message unambiguous.
“All of Hamas, out!”
On the streets of Gaza, more and more Palestinians are expressing open defiance against the armed group that’s ruled the strip for almost 20 years.
Many hold Hamas responsible for plunging the tiny, impoverished territory into the worst crisis faced by Palestinians in more than 70 years.
At least 300 federal candidates, including 19 Liberals, have lent their names to an initiative bearing explicit links to one of Canada’s most radical anti-Israel groups.
As of press time, the website VotePalestine.ca lists more than 330 candidates who have expressed “full” endorsement of their “Palestine Platform.”
The platform calls on Canada to recognize Palestinian statehood without any caveat that Hamas be removed from power in Gaza.
