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.
If it doesn’t include the Liberal Party it’s BS.
NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh couldn’t quite bring himself to denounce the violence perpetrated against Israeli football fans in Amsterdam last week.
After a match between Maccabi Tel Aviv F.C. and AFC Ajax on Thursday, Israeli fans were attacked in the streets, beaten and chased by several mobs. Men on scooters crisscrossed the city looking for Israelis to attack, according to reports. Five Israelis were hospitalized.
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.”
Looks like someone needs a lecture on antisemitism!

Wave of violence targeting Israeli soccer fans followed calls to hunt them down on popular messaging apps
AMSTERDAM—Israeli financial adviser Ofek Ziv had just emerged from the metro, heading to the Dutch capital’s central Dam Square with a group of Maccabi Tel Aviv soccer fans, when he says he was struck in the back of the head with a rock. A firecracker exploded near him. Men in ski masks later appeared, wielding knives and bats.
The assailants, he said, “had fire in their eyes. They want to catch you.”
Ziv and scores of other Maccabi supporters had traveled to the Dutch capital for a match with local team Ajax on Thursday night. Little did they know that, earlier in the day, they had become a topic of discussion on popular messaging apps, where users were calling for a Jodenjacht, or “Jew hunt.”

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”.
On Remembrance Day of all days.
I grew up in Melbourne, in the bosom of my Jewish family. While my parents were observant they were not religious, God wasn’t a feature of my Jewish education; I believed in Jews and I didn’t need to believe in God to do that.
When I was growing up and attending my Church of England school, my parents would occasionally ask me if I was experiencing any anti-Semitism. I always said no, I thought they were paranoid, I was dismissive of their concerns. Anti-Semitism was something from history, not something I had encountered.

More than a year after the October 7, 2023 Hamas-led attack on Israel, the Palestinian Authority (PA) continues to view the Iran-backed Islamist movement as a legitimate partner.
Last week, representatives of the PA’s ruling Fatah faction (headed by PA President Mahmoud Abbas) and Hamas held talks in the Egyptian capital of Cairo to discuss establishing a joint administration to rule the Gaza Strip. An Egyptian source confirmed that the Fatah-Hamas discussions aim at to create a committee to manage the affairs of the Gaza Strip, in addition to pursuing efforts to reach a ceasefire there.
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.
An anti-Semitic rampage in Amsterdam sends a disturbing message to the West.
One of the most harrowing aspects of the Hamas-led massacre on October 7, 2023, which claimed the lives of 1,200 Israelis, was the glee with which the Palestinian terrorists livestreamed their atrocities for the world to see. Just 13 months later, Jews on social media were once again confronted with footage of an anti-Semitic rampage, one that shook Amsterdam on Thursday evening, following a soccer match between Maccabi Tel Aviv and Ajax.

Anyone who is surprised by what happened in Amsterdam hasn’t been paying attention. I filmed the celebration of October 7th massacre on October 8th 2023 in London. The time for handwringing and excuses is over. Anti-Jew hatred must be stamped out. pic.twitter.com/4sA5x9X4Wj

To embark on the path toward sustainable peace in the Middle East, it is essential to confront a fundamental truth: without addressing a crucial first step, peace across the region will remain nothing more than an illusion. This first step lies in directly confronting and ultimately changing the root cause of much of the ongoing conflict, violence, and terrorism — namely, the Islamist regime in Iran.
Over the decades, Iran’s regime has embedded itself deeply within the region’s crises, stoking unrest and sponsoring terrorism. If the Middle East is to see any genuine peace and stability, a transformation of Iran’s regime is essential.
Qatar has ordered Hamas to leave the country following US pressure in a major blow to the terror group’s leaders who have long lived there in comfort.
Doha reportedly told Hamas around 10 days ago it was “no longer welcome” after the US complained the group should not have refuge in the Gulf country.
In the final weeks of his presidency, Joe Biden had been urged to pressure Qatar over hosting the potential next generation of Hamas leaders.
I bet Justin will offer sanctuary.

Thursday night, videos showing Israeli soccer fans being ambushed over a period of several hours around Amsterdam appeared on social media, many of them proudly shared by the assailants themselves, echoing how videos of the October 7 attacks were similarly shared. Some attackers rode scooters while assaulting their victims. Mobs chanted anti-Israel slogans, proudly sharing videos of the assaults where they chased, kicked and beat Israeli citizens, after which, some celebrated. Sixty-two people were arrested. All but 10 were quickly released. All of this, on the eve of Kristallnacht. Like the Netherlands, Canadian society at all levels has failed to take a strong stance against antisemitism and to prevent what’s happening in Europe from happening here. That needs to change now.
The horrible attacks last night in Amsterdam are a direct result of our open border policies and are a prime example of the huge issues we’ve been facing specifically with the muslim and Moroccan community.

Ottawa has been speaking with like-minded countries about recognizing a Palestinian state, a government official told a committee of parliamentarians studying the quickest path toward such a declaration Thursday afternoon.
“We’re taking notes, we’re talking to each other, we’re weighing the considerations as a group of very like-minded countries,” said Alexandre Lévêque, assistant deputy minister for Europe, the Middle East and Arctic Branch.
Lévêque would not name any of the countries in question, citing the confidential nature of diplomatic conversations.
No one believes a word you say. Everyone knows you lust for the Islamist vote bloc.

Just before Tuesday’s presidential election, the Biden-Harris administration quietly waived mandatory terrorism sanctions on the embattled Palestinian government—even as it determined that the government’s leaders are paying imprisoned terrorists and fomenting violence in breach of U.S. law.
The State Department, in a non-public notice to Congress, determined that the Palestinian Authority (PA) and Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) are not complying with agreements to curb terrorism against Israel and end the “pay-to-slay” program, which rewards imprisoned terrorists for committing acts of violence.
