One Year After Oct. 7, Israel Sees a Future at War

The Hamas-led attack has convinced the country that it must take the battle to its enemies

TEL AVIV—One year after the brutal Hamas attack that ended Israel’s two-decade golden age of relative peace, expanding wealth and growing diplomatic ties, the country is now firmly on the counterattack and preparing to be at war for years.

Weathering a ferocious Iranian missile assault in recent days and shaking off calls from allies for a cease-fire in Gaza, Israel is instead opening new theaters of fighting.

It launched a stunning series of attacks against the Lebanese-militia Hezbollah in Lebanon in recent weeks, while simultaneously targeting Houthi rebels in Yemen, rooting out militancy in the occupied West Bank and mapping out its next steps against Iran, the architect of a so-called axis of resistance that includes U.S.-designated terrorist groups bent on destroying Israel.

Joe Adam George: Extremism is a common sight on the streets of Trudeau’s post-national Canada

We need to have some difficult conversations about our race-to-the-bottom immigration policies

As news broke on October 7, 2023, of Hamas terrorists running rampant in Israel, wreaking unspeakable violence on innocent civilians, the celebratory mood in the Canadian pro-Hamas camp manifested itself in a most despicable and un-Canadian way: the glorification of terrorism.

For most Canadians, unaccustomed to the reality that terrorists enjoy more goodwill than Jews in the Middle East, the celebrations were an eye-opener and a harbinger of far worse to come.

Man accused of plotting NYC Oct. 7 attack made refugee claim in Canada: immigration consultant

While a Pakistani man living in the Toronto area was allegedly planning a mass murder of Jews in New York, he was also seeking refugee status in Canada, according to an immigration consultant.

The U.S. is now aiming to extradite Muhammad Shahzeb Khan, 19, after he was arrested by RCMP in a dramatic operation on Sept. 4 in Ormstown, Que., not far from the U.S. border.

The FBI alleges Khan told undercover officers he was building an ISIS cell to “slaughter” as many Jewish civilians as possible in a violent rampage around the anniversary of the Oct. 7, 2023 Hamas attacks on Israel.

Deborah Lyons Antisemitism Czarina For All Of Canada: October 7 an opportunity to redouble our efforts against hate

Antisemitism Czar Deborah Lyon’s Employer

The fact that people are celebrating on this solemn anniversary shows how deeply entrenched antisemitism has become

One year ago today, Hamas terrorists launched the worst attack on Jews since the Holocaust, committing horrific atrocities. Since that day, Canadian Jews have existed in an extended state of mourning and grief, not only because of the horrific massacre and the ongoing captivity of the hostages trapped in the tunnels of Gaza, but also because of the denial, justification and even celebration of these events. The Jewish community should have had time to grieve, but were instead forced to grapple with new waves of antisemitism here in Canada.


Well Golly Gee Deb what can little old me do about it?

I didn’t import a hate cult by the hundreds of thousands, successive Canadian governments of all stripes did that.

It wasn’t me that encouraged “newcomers” to bring their ethnic and religious hatreds along with them. Multicult did that.

And if our universities churn out frothing at the mouth lunatics well it’s what our elites wanted and they know best.

Heck our current government subsidizes “anti-racist” hate groups that seek to criminalize dissent but only “right-wing dissent” lead by the brightest lights of Canada’s vibrant diversity.

If we did speak out about it we’d risk being called  racists or worse Islamophobes!

I support Israel pity my own government seeks to rob me of my own nation.

No need for you and your tone deaf cronies to look in the mirror though.


No idea who these people are but I bet they probably would have called me a racist or Islamophobe on Oct 6. Heck they probably still do.

Collin May: The lessons we should have learned from October 7

On the first anniversary of the October 7 terrorist attack on Israel, it’s worth looking back at the lessons we learned, or should have learned, over the past year.

First, it’s always appropriate to remember what happened a year ago. In a surprise attack, Hamas terrorists stormed across the Gaza-Israel border, torturing, raping and killing over 1,200 Israeli citizens and foreign nationals. Hamas also took 251 hostages — some have returned, some have been killed and many remain captive.

Geert Wilders: We Will Not Let Our Country and Continent Be Destroyed

The hatred of extreme left-wing agitators and parts of the left-liberal elite in politics and the media against our Jewish compatriots and the State of Israel since the barbaric massacre of innocent civilians on October 7, 2023, has directly fueled anti-Semitism and hatred of Jews.

It started immediately after October 7 with inflammatory demonstrations of millions of people with false flags and slogans in many European capitals, including many non-Western immigrants, who thereby demonstrated that they do not share any of our values ​​and do not belong here. Then followed the betrayal at universities and in parts of our media and politics. Both nationally and internationally, from the [Netherlands] House of Representatives to the EU and UN, as well as in newspapers and on TV. Every day again. There are now even police officers who refuse to protect Jewish objects and instead of being fired on the spot, their cowardly police chiefs show understanding.

Thousands of the usual suspects march in pro-Palestinian protest to mark a year of war in the Middle East

A sea of red, black, white and green filled Yonge-Dundas Square on Saturday, as thousands of people wearing keffiyehs and waving Palestinian and Lebanese flags gathered to mark one year since the Oct 7. attacks that sparked the biggest war in the Middle East in a generation.

“We will not be pushed aside. We stand with Gaza side by side,” they chanted in Toronto as marches took place across Canada and around the world in Paris, Manila, Cape Town and other major cities amid reports of new Israeli airstrikes in Beirut, which have killed 1,400 people in less than two weeks.


Why aren’t the criminals who invited a death cult to settle here in shackles?

Bullshit crowd estimate.

Oh cripes.

Amy Hamm: I’ll take political apathy over shilling for terrorism, thanks

The most civic engagement I have witnessed in Canada has been over the last year. Sounds lovely, right? It sounds suggestive of a much-needed renaissance within Canadian civil society. But alas, it was not.

Sadly, the civic engagement I have witnessed in Canada over the past year has been enacted by shills for terrorist organizations, organized street mobs braying for genocide, while falsely accusing Israel of the same, and by Canadians celebrating October 7 and (we can only assume) the killing, raping, or burning of victims — some babies — and the kidnapping of hostages that occurred on that terrible day one year ago. In our capital, Canadians shouted “Long live October 7!” Useful idiots.
