The negotiations for a Gaza hostage and ceasefire deal were near collapse, Israeli media reported on Sunday, after Hamas refused to provide information on the status of the remaining hostages in the Strip.
Representative from Hamas, Qatar, and the US have arrived in Cairo, Egypt, for a renewed round of hostage negotiations. The Israeli delegation is thus far absent, with a KAN News report quoting an official as saying that the delegation “will not leave until a response from Hamas is received.”
The loud protesters who chanted “there is only one solution, intifada revolution” — and even attempted to injure a federal cabinet minister — at Toronto’s Art Gallery of Ontario (AGO) Saturday night must feel like they’re in charge.
Just like that, there would be no gala dinner for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his Italian counterpart, Giorgia Meloni, inside the art gallery. Outside, cabinet minister Ahmed Hussen, who represents a Toronto riding, had something thrown at him twice by Pro-Hamas protesters as he unsuccessfully attempted to enter.
They eat their own, at roughly the 18 second mark one of the protesters lobs something at Hussen’s head.

It’s evident the TPS have been told “hands off” and will only pursue Hamas miscreants if a significant public outcry occurs.
I doubt tossing garbage at Hussen qualifies for investigation. Some crimes are best left unsolved.
Meanwhile in Thornhill.
Quite a scene developing outside a Thornhill synagogue today. Mayor @StevenDelDuca has called for calm. @YRP on the scene — just hours after Pro-Hamas protesters shut down @JustinTrudeau @GiorgiaMeloni event at the @agotoronto pic.twitter.com/zzGpS7EEZf

The Charity Commission is examining a fresh series of concerns about “utterly repugnant” sermons in British mosques, The Telegraph has learned.
The sermons were given in the weeks and months following Hamas’ invasion of southern Israel on October 7, 2023.
It comes after the Prime Minister warned about a “shocking increase” in extremism as he urged the public to “face down the extremists who would tear us apart”.
Millions of brave servicemen have fought for our freedom under the British flag.
Now, those same men are being cautioned by the police for holding up that flag. pic.twitter.com/xipOZOwmYg

The Palestinians flags come in clusters. They may dominate entire streets, hanging high on lampposts out of the reach of a stepladder should anyone be tempted to take them down. Or they gather outside shops, communal buildings and particularly around schools. Come to Tower Hamlets and you’ll soon understand the swirling mess of Britain’s politics. It is here, not Rochdale, that a community has been renamed “Little Palestine”.
The UK’s newest elected MP doesn’t even try to hide his antisemitism.
“We have declared Bradford, an Israel-free zone.”

Like the protests against The Satanic Verses 35 years ago, today’s rolling anti-Israel demonstrations will come to be seen as a staging post in British politics. The late 1980s was when the public first noticed political Islam in Britain. The past few months were when they noticed that the politics of Islam has changed the way we are governed forever.
The kids are all reich.
A Brooklyn high school has become a haven for Hitler-loving hooligans who terrorize Jewish teachers and classmates, The Post has learned.
On Oct. 26, just three weeks after the Oct. 7 Hamas massacre of 1,200 Israelis, 40 to 50 teens marched through Origins HS in Sheepshead Bay waving a Palestinian flag and chanting “Death to Israel!” and “Kill the Jews!” staffers said.

A grooming gang who repeatedly raped and sexually assaulted a young girl in Newcastle city centre while passing her around “like a toy” have been jailed for a total of 36 years.
Four men sexually exploited a girl when she was aged just 13 and 14 years old. After meeting her one day in Newcastle, brothers Mohamed and Omar Badreddin quickly identified her as someone who could be easily manipulated and she was groomed with alcohol, cigarettes and compliments before being abused.
When someone comes to America, land of the free, as a refugee, presumably to escape some awful homeland, does it seem funny that such a person then jumps on a flight to Cuba to advocate for its superior model?
So the House of Commons now has an MP for Gaza. His name is George Galloway. Last night, the fedora-sporting left-wing malcontent won a stunning victory in the by-election in Rochdale. ‘This is for Gaza’, he said in his victory speech. Not for Rochdale’s poor, then. Not for its struggling families. Not for its working-class girls who suffered so terribly at the hands of Pakistani grooming gangs. No, for a small patch of land 2,500 miles away. Rarely has the British left’s penchant for deserting its own working class in favour of cosying up to more ‘glamorous’ causes overseas been so brutally illustrated.
In an interview with John Anderson last fall, Douglas Murray delivered a passionate denunciation of a plan by Muslim groups to host the so-called ‘Million Man March’ for Palestine on Remembrance Day.
“The soul of England, the soul of Britain, is about to be trampled on very, very visibly by people who are gleeful in their trampling,” he said with fierce contempt. “They have defaced and defiled all of our holy places, and I think that I know the British soul is awakening and stirring with rage at what these people are doing. These people came into our house—many of them broke into our house illegally. Many of them were never wanted here. They have come here; they have betrayed all of our attempts at hospitality; they’ve spat in our faces; and now they want to trample everything we have underfoot. No. No.”
A 27-year-old Toronto man faces charges after a 76-year-old woman was shot with a pellet gun in the face and hands in what’s believed to have been a random attack in Scarborough.
… “She suffered some pretty serious injuries,” Toronto Police Insp. Michael Williams told a press conference Friday. “Thankfully, she’ll recover from them but quite obviously she’s very traumatized and is actually concerned to walk back on the street again.”
Williams said suspect Umer Saad lives in the neighbourhood where the incident happened.
It will be described as a bombshell, but the warning signs have been there for many years.
I have long tried to warn people that UK politics was heading in a sectarian direction, but it was too inconvenient for our political and media class to accept my comments. Mass immigration, diversity and multiculturalism have become gods that we are all supposed to bow down to. The difference this time is that this religious sectarian victory is here to stay.
I’ve been openly saying, too, that this new form of sectarianism will lead to the hard-Left Islamist party getting a foothold in Westminster. Again, people chose to ignore me.
“Islamophobia” seems to be everywhere these days – or at least accusations of it. What does it mean?
Too often it leads to silencing people who have questions about Islam and its teachings. I don’t know of any laws preventing people from criticizing or questioning Christianity or Judaism – in Judaism it seems that what is said is based on context!
… Today, in 2024, there seems to be a double standard in Toronto. Although Brazau was charged because language can be a weapon, those calling for the extermination of Israel and the Jews are allowed to speak whatever they want and protest anywhere – without fear. The October, 2023 barbaric massacre of Jews in Israel by Muslims from Gaza led to full-throated Muslim protests.
Trudeau’s new hate crime legislation is a thinly disguised effort to implement sharia law in Canada.
