A spokesperson for the National Republican Congressional Committee said it sparked outrage at Rep. Rashida Tlaib‘s (D-MI) congressional office when they dropped off a “F*** Hamas” T-shirt on Wednesday morning ahead of the vote on the bipartisan Antisemitism Awareness Act, a bill that supporters say help combat antisemitism on college campuses.

Horrifying knifepoint sex attack is latest incident in neighbourhood where ‘attacks and rapes are part of daily life’
A knifepoint sex attack a short distance from where the Paris Olympics is set to take place this summer is the latest in a series of horrific assaults in an area where locals say they fear for their safety on a daily basis.
Place Auguste Baron in the north-east of the French capital has seen two women attacked and threatened with rape in the past two days, according to French media. The suspects in each case are said to have been crack addicts.
Last night, a woman who was walking home in the neighbourhood was pounced on by a man who she said had been tailing her for 500 yards, Le Parisien reports.
Jews have eyes. And they see that the antisemitism in the protests over Gaza is no aberration
There is a point at which the gaslighting becomes genuinely insulting. When meek attempts to blame a rogue few for hateful or antisemitic speech, or the repeated insistence that such displays of bigotry have “no place in Canada,” are so disconnected from reality that they become offensive and belittling.
People can see with their own eyes that this sort of bigotry clearly has a place here. And they can hear with their own ears as choruses of people – not just one or two outliers – sing about sending Jews “back to Europe.” It happened during pro-Palestinian protests in Ottawa on April 15, in Toronto on March 8 and April 13, and just days ago, in Montreal, at the encampment set up at McGill University.
It is a litany of enrichment made possible by the Liberal and Conservative parties.
A West Yorkshire Police officer has been charged with two terrorism offences.
PC Mohammed Adil, from Bradford, is charged with two counts of publishing an image in support of a proscribed organisation, specifically Hamas, under Section 13 of the Terrorism Act.
The alleged offences relate to messages shared on WhatsApp between October and November 2023.
PC Adil, 26, who is based in Calderdale, has been suspended by West Yorkshire Police and will appear at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on Thursday.
Some 30 police officers in Sweden provoked public outrage in yet another major scandal involving gang activity. It appears that law enforcement officials allowed themselves to be seduced and exploited by gangsters to whom they gave information that later led to several deadly altercations on the streets.
The shocking details were first revealed in an extensive investigation published by the local daily Dagens Nyheter (DN), which found over 500 instances of Swedish police personnel leaking classified information. Gang members were briefed regarding ongoing investigations, upcoming raids, or competing gangs.
“We stand with the Palestinian resistance and their heroic and brave action on October 7. Long live October 7.”
It doesn’t get much clearer than that.
It was yet another harangue from Charlotte Kates, international co-ordinator for the Samidoun Prisoners Solidarity Network, one of the main groups behind the dozens of “pro-Palestine” rallies and demonstrations across Canada since the Hamas atrocities of October 7 last year. The savageries of that day led to the war in Gaza that has so far cost the lives of perhaps 30,000 Palestinians.

A huge mob of masked pro-terror rioters violently broke into an academic building at Columbia University and seized it early Tuesday – rebranding the iconic hall named after founding father Alexander Hamilton and draping it with a Palestinian flag.
Dozens stormed into Hamilton Hall and sealed themselves in shortly before 1 a.m. – with some using metal barricades, chairs and tables to block others from getting inside, footage posted on social media shows.

McGill requests ‘police assistance’ over pro-Palestinian encampment
McGill University says it has “requested police assistance” about the pro-Palestinian encampment on its lower field.
“We informed participants that this encampment was not authorized and gave them time to gather their belongings and leave the premises,” McGill said Tuesday. “However, most have chosen to remain. As we worked through the steps, we also engaged in dialogue with representatives of McGill students.”
The university says it failed to reach a resolution with the student demonstrators and “decided to take the final step in our protocol.”
OTTAWA – The Crown is asking a judge to consider an Ottawa man’s pro-Hamas comments at a Toronto protest to be an aggravating factor in sentencing for breaching the bail conditions of an unrelated charge.
The Crown says Mohammed Assadi was supposed to be living under house arrest with his sister in Ottawa while out on bail on an assault charge.
It has been more than two years since Russia invaded Ukraine. If the latest predictions are correct, Russia may emerge victorious from this war in the coming months. They will probably do so by toppling the Ukrainian government and turning Ukraine into something similar to Belarus: a Russian protectorate.
It has also been about six months since Israel launched its invasion of Gaza. Their overall intention is to eradicate Hamas and secure a new government that is not hell-bent on destroying Israel. So far, they have not accomplished that goal, but the overall impression from a variety of news sources indicates that their victory is only a matter of time.
After the October 7 attacks, thousands took to American streets to celebrate. Some explicitly praised the heinous acts of rape, beheading, and kidnapping of civilians. Among these demonstrators were many noncitizens, including those on student visas. Universities such as MIT refrained from suspending students who neglected their classes in order to protest, seeking to protect those students’ immigration status.
Hard habit to break for our politicians, they like the votes.
Jamie Sarkonak: Canada not ‘engulfed’ in antisemitism — for the most part, study says
Aside from a few pockets, most of Canada is still morally calibrated against antisemitism.
That’s my takeaway from a study that came out earlier this month on Canadian attitudes toward Jews and Israel by University of Toronto sociologist Robert Brym. He found, through surveys taken in early 2024, that Canadians with the most negative sentiments towards Jews were Muslims, Quebecers and non-Jewish university students. Those with the most negative sentiments towards Israel, meanwhile, included Muslims and non-Jewish university students, as well as NDP supporters. The rest, not so much.
Some 1,000 protestors gathered in Hamburg’s Steindamm Street on Saturday, calling for an end to “dictatorship values,” according to the German daily Die Welt.
In a video posted on X, the crowd can be seen responding to shouts of ‘Takbir’ with “Allahu Akbar.” The video also shows the mob shouting part of the Shahada in Arabic, “There’s no God but God.”
„So gehorche nicht den Lügnern!“

The Metropolitan Police have denied involvement in the decision to cover up London’s Holocaust memorial to protect it during pro-Palestinian protests.
The memorial in Hyde Park was covered in a blue tarpaulin on Saturday, as tens of thousands of pro-Palestinian demonstrators marched from Parliament Square to a rally in Hyde Park.
Israel instructed its embassies abroad to prepare for a severe antisemitic backlash should the International Criminal Court issue arrest warrants against top Israeli leaders and army brass over their actions in Gaza, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, and IDF Chief of Staff Herzl Halevi.
Foreign Minister Israel Katz (Likud) issued messages on the matter both to Israeli missions abroad and to Jewish organizations, suggesting that the latter work with local authorities to increase security.
