Jewish Security Network launched to protect community from antisemitic threats in Toronto

Toronto’s Jewish community has established a broad private security agency to protect Jews and Jewish institutions against increasing incidents and threats of antisemitic attacks.

Called the Jewish Security Network, the agency announced ambitious plans on Thursday for an around-the-clock, centralized, command and control operations centre; “hardening” of the physical infrastructure of Jewish institutions; training of volunteers; and research, analysis, and rapid information sharing.

Avi Benolo: When it comes to antisemitism, silence is complicity

In a sea of complicity, acts of individual courage illuminate the darkness. One such moment, seared into my mind and giving me hope each day, is captured in a 1936 photograph of August Landmesser at the Blohm+Voss shipyard, where he alone crossed his arms, refusing to give the Nazi salute. His silent defiance became an enduring symbol of resistance to tyranny.


This is not an argument suited to Canada where for the past decade the public has been silenced by a Liberal government intent on criminalizing dissent to its policies.

The Liberal government has maliciously labeled anyone a racist who spoke out in opposition to its mass immigration policy.

That same Liberal government labeled anyone who spoke out against Islamist predation Islamophobic.

That same lunatic Liberal government labels you a transphobe because you refuse to believe women have penises.

In Canada governments at all levels have embraced DEI and its hate fueled fanatics who label even children as racist oppressors just because they have white skin.

Want a job in the civil service? Forget about it if you’re a White male.

Planning to stand up for your self if you’re “White”? Why you must be a nativist Nazi worse than Hitler!

My readers and I, a happy conglomerate of faiths, have been called all of those things over the years by our so called “elites” and organizations the Liberal government subsidizes.

A few prominent voices have spoken out against the perversity of DEI and its persecution of White people but most stood by in silence.

Was their silence also complicity?


There’s a lot going on today. B’nai Brith has embraced DEI hoping to win a coveted spot on the designated victimhood wall of fame and we just can’t wait to find out who the Villainous Oppressor Colonizers are keeping them down!

And now this … CIJA decides to sacrifice the JDL.

Iran can’t save Hamas

Another week, another Gaza ceasefire proposal. CIA Director William Burns, speaking alongside MI6 Director Richard Moore, recently told an audience in London that a new US-backed proposal would be put forward in the coming days. Burns has had the thankless task of leading US efforts to broker a truce between Hamas and Israel.

Currently, negotiations have stalled over the Philadelphi Corridor, the strip of land along the Gaza-Egypt border, under which the IDF says it has discovered dozens of tunnels used by Hamas to smuggle weapons and ammunition. Benjamin Netanyahu has said Israel must maintain a presence there to prevent its use as a rearmament route. Hamas, implicitly agreeing with this interpretation, has said such a presence would constitute a red line.

Normalizing Atrocities

Landmarks of shame.

Hamas’ orgy of rape, murder, and callous, indiscriminate cruelty such as mutilation, torture, burning alive, and beheadings that began last October 7 and is continuing almost a year later, marks an escalation extreme even by the standards of that blood-stained region. Morally horrific have been the “protests” on prestigious U.S. university campuses, abetted by simpatico, or cowardly, professors and administrators. These riotous displays also feature property damage, record-breaking assaults against Jews, and chants explicitly or implicitly calling for another Holocaust, and celebrating the Nazis’ Final Solution.

‘You cannot take us for granted’: Muslim voters mobilize as Jagmeet Singh’s polarizing Gaza stance will get tested in this byelection

MONTREAL—The front window of the NDP’s campaign office in LaSalle—Émard—Verdun features a small selection of flags.

Some represent countries, like Ukraine and Sudan, that are currently mired in conflict. Others represent Indigenous rights and LGBTQ2+ causes.

The Palestinian flag, the largest of the set, is affixed above them all.

I bet we have a Hamas party soon.

The New UK Government’s Anti-Israel Policy Is a Disgrace

The pretence that the UK’s new Labour government has moved away from the blatant anti-Semitism that was rife under its former leader, Jeremy Corbyn, has been brutally exposed by the actions of David Lammy, the party’s new Foreign Secretary.

Prior to his appointment to one of the British government’s key positions in Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s new administration, Lammy had made his name as a Left-wing firebrand.

Pro-Palestinian activists charged with criminally harassing Immigration Minister Marc Miller

Three pro-Palestinian activists were arrested and charged with criminally harassing Marc Miller, a Montreal MP and the federal immigration minister, prompting a group of protesters to rally at the Montreal courthouse to denounce the arrests as a violation of the right to freedom of expression.

Samar Alkhdour is one of those activists.

One of those situations where you want both to lose.

Joly suspends 30 permits for arms sales to Israel and will block U.S.-bound ammunition sale destined for IDF

Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly said Canada has suspended 30 permits for arms sales to Israel and is taking the rare step of blocking a contract with the U.S. government to send Quebec-made ammunition to Israeli Defence Forces.

Canadian arms sales to, and in some cases, through the United States to third countries are not subject to Canada’s typical authorization procedure and weeks ago the U.S. announced plans to send Quebec-made ammunition to Israel.

Hamas no longer exists as a military force, says Israel’s defence minister

Hamas “no longer exists” as an organised military force, Israel’s defence minister has said.

Yoav Gallant claimed the terror group was now only engaged in “guerilla warfare” with Israel still fighting pockets of fighters and “pursuing Hamas leadership”.

Mr Gallant’s claims emerged on the day the IDF said it killed three senior Hamas fighters in an airstrike on a humanitarian zone in Gaza.

Palestinian migrant accused of beating Jewish NY man, stealing flag crossed US border illegally

A self-described Palestinian migrant accused of beating a Long Island Jewish man had been nabbed months earlier illegally crossing into the US and was almost immediately released.

Bechir Lehbeib, 26, of Mauritania sneaked across the southern border into Lukeville, Ariz., on July 20, 2023, with a group of more than 200 people, according to a House Judiciary Committee report on the migrant’s file exclusively obtained by The Post.

Deradicalizing Gaza Before ‘the Day After’

For Americans like me, who’ve known their country at war only in the Middle East, one of the most interesting things about World War II is the lack of a postwar insurgency. After the Nazis and imperial Japanese surrendered, groups of disaffected soldiers did not lead violent campaigns to restore the defeated regimes (an end-of-war coup attempt in Japan failed rather quickly). The occupations of Germany and Japan were peaceful. Both countries became reliable American allies in short order. Hundreds of thousands of the defeated regimes’ erstwhile supporters––including senior officials, including war criminals––escaped serious punishment, rejoined society, and sometimes gained political influence. And still the peace was kept.

Has Canada’s Taxman Been Weaponized?

Canada’s decision to revoke JNF’s tax-exempt status seems politically motivated.

On Aug. 10, the Canadian branch of the registered charity, Jewish National Fund (JNF), received an email from the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA), notifying it that its charitable status had been revoked, effective immediately.

The grounds stated for revoking the status, which enabled JNF Canada to issue charitable receipts for income tax purposes, was that the organization had strayed from the objective for which it had originally been granted charity status.

Israel’s True Enemy: Hamas, Not Netanyahu

Israel’s self-appointed “elites” governed Israel during the first few decades after its independence in 1948, and, after an unfortunate track record of calculating and assuming things incorrectly when it comes to Israel’s policies towards the Palestinians and other Arabs, are evidently dismayed that they have not been voted back into power. These Israeli “elites” are now blocking Israel’s streets to try to bring down Israel’s duly elected government. They seem to have forgotten their past mistakes and are still pushing for the same failed policies that have resulted in the deaths of thousands of Israelis.

How ‘financialized’ landlords may be contributing to rising rents in Canada

Starlight Investments is Canada’s largest landlord, with more than 54,000 units nationwide and 68,000 globally. Starlight was granted approval by Ontario’s Landlord and Tenant Board to raise the rent above provincial guidelines twice in the last two years. Alibi says this makes his unit no longer affordable for him.

“They should not be allowed to get away with this. They just keep coming to take and take and take,” he said.

… He and dozens of other tenants from his and two adjacent buildings — including 71, 75 and 79 Thorncliffe Park Drive in north Toronto — have joined forces in a rent strike since May 2023 to protest the Above Guideline Increases (AGIs) after the second one was issued to tenants earlier that year.


Thorncliffe Park … home of the Mosqueteria, the largest Muslim ghetto in Toronto.

I wonder if for votes a local pol will not come to their rescue.
