“Islamophobia”

Trudeau’s both-sides games on the war in Gaza are repugnant

Last week, Foreign Affairs Minister Melanie Joly announced that Canada was sanctioning 11 Hamas leaders for their participation in the Oct. 7 attack on Israel – a redundant and pointless gesture, since Hamas is considered a terrorist entity by the Canadian government. The ministry’s own news release acknowledged the superfluous nature of the announcement, noting that members of terrorist organizations are inadmissible to Canada and that their property is subject to forfeiture.

It was a little bit of security theatre by the Canadian government, part of its continuing effort to demonstrate that it cares deeply about Israelis/Gazans/Jews/Muslims/whoever’s turn it is next, even if it was announced four months after the Hamas attack. Indeed, one would think that the time for such wholly symbolic gestures was on Oct. 8, not months later.

22nd Anniversary of a Journalist’s Beheading

On 23 January 2002, American journalist Daniel Pearl was kidnapped by Islamic terrorists in Pakistan. Pearl was an accomplished journalist for The Wall Street Journal, where he had worked since 1990. Starting in 2000, he served as the newspaper’s South Asia Bureau Chief, based in Bombay, India. As part of his journalistic responsibilities, he traveled throughout South Asia and occasionally ventured into Pakistan. On 1 February 2002, he was decapitated for being both American and Jewish.

Platitude of the day … Trudeau calls demonstration outside Mount Sinai a ‘reprehensible’ display of antisemitism

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau called a demonstration outside of Toronto’s Mount Sinai Hospital on Monday a “reprehensible” display of antisemitism.

Trudeau posted a statement on X, formerly known as Twitter, in response to reports of a protest outside of the institution, which was founded by the Jewish community in Toronto over a century ago.

h/t Sweetpea

Aroma Cafe, Mount Sinai, Davos, Crowncrack.com, Soho Theatre and many more instances of anti-Semitism reported in just the last 48 hours.

It seems an international coordinated effort is underway to push the boundaries of publicly acceptable anti-Semitism. 

Gone are the days when a Swastika or a chant of “From the river to the sea” were the “extreme”.

The goal now is to intimidate people and institutions with an implied if not actual threat of violence.

The brazen unashamed thugs tearing up hostage posters and the open support of Hamas atrocities as legitimate resistance were my first clues that a page had been turned.

Though the numbers of Pro- Hamas protesters marauding about are smaller today their choice of targets has succeeded in pushing the envelope and making the streets of Toronto “safer” for worse acts of anti-semitism to come.

Large-scale protests are inevitable and given the size of the GTA’s Muslim diaspora potentially very violent.

Will our police be prepared? I don’t know. This is a hot potato our politicians hope just goes away without having to risk the Islamist vote.

This is the Canada we live in. The Canada destroyed by identity politics and the mass immigration of incompatible cultures.

Pro-Palestinian protesters ‘meant paraglider image as peace symbol’

Sure Jan.

Two women accused of sticking images of paragliders on their backs at a pro-Palestinian march were actually displaying a “cartoon parachute” used as a “symbol of peace”, lawyers have claimed.

Heba Alhayek, 29, and Pauline Ankunda, 26, allegedly wore the pictures of paragliders at a march in central London seven days after militants from Hamas used paragliders to enter Israel from Gaza on October 7.

A third woman, Noimutu Olayinka Taiwo, 27, is accused of displaying the paraglider picture on a placard at the protest.

‘Jihad Capital’ Claim Brings on a Torrent of Selective Outrage

There’s more anger at a Wall Street Journal op-ed for noticing radical rhetoric in Dearborn than at the rhetoric itself.

Democrats and journalists are upset at the Wall Street Journal.

They can’t explain why, exactly. They only know the paper did a terrible thing.

“27,000 people dead in Gaza,” Washington Post Baghdad bureau chief Louisa Loveluck, currently reporting on the war in Gaza, wrote last week on social media, “most of them civilians, as the world’s most powerful newspapers publish stories likening Arabs to insects, aid operations to terrorist outfits, and an entire Muslim community in Michigan to jihadists. The world is upside down.”

We may have been scammed by asylum seekers, admits Church of England

The Church of England has admitted for the first time that it may have been “scammed” by asylum seekers falsely claiming to have converted to Christianity to boost their chances of staying in the UK.

The Rt Revd Dr Guli Francis-Dehqani, the Bishop of Chelmsford, conceded it was “very difficult” to look into the hearts of converts and be 100 per cent certain that they were genuine.

How Western media treats the ‘Islamic threat’

Edward Said, a Palestinian Christian scholar, wrote that those who control Western media are powerful and can be dangerous because they are able to shape peoples’ thoughts. Said’s book “Covering Islam” opened my eyes as a student and framed my engagement with the media.

In the post-cold-war era the West had moved from the “red scare” to the “green menace.” The flavour of the day, or more accurately flavour for the decades to come became the “Islamic threat.” Said’s Occident v. orient thesis popularized in his book, “Orientalism,” became more vivid.

Then as a lawyer in the wake of 9/11, Said’s thesis came alive again, but this time the zeitgeist broadened to go beyond foreign Muslims, to include Western Muslims like me. Through some Western eyes, even the “them” living among “us” can be the “enemy.”

Can be the enemy? We’re all those terror attacks listed by TROP committed by Christadelphians?

Islam is the enemy. It is a 5th Column whose goal is the destruction of the West.

Éric Zemmour: ‘I am not intending to conquer Europe’

Two years ago, Éric Zemmour was the most talked-about man in France and a serious contender to be the ninth president of the Fifth Republic. A controversial journalist turned incendiary politician, he vied with Marine Le Pen for second place behind Emmanuel Macron in the polls. Crucially, he seemed to have something she lacked – an ability still to appeal to the Catholic bourgeoisie while tapping into widespread anger at mass immigration.

But then Russia attacked Ukraine, the mood of Europe changed, and Zemmour’s political fortunes sank as quickly as they had risen. He finished a distant fourth in the first round of the presidential election, with 7 per cent of the vote. The experience did not put him off running for high office, however, and today he is back in campaign mode looking ahead to the European elections in June and beyond.

Switzerland: Axe wielding asylum seeker from Iran shot dead on train after taking hostages – motive unclear according to usual boilerplate we’ve come to expect whenever Islam is involved

Police in Switzerland have shot dead a man armed with an axe and a knife who took 15 passengers hostage on a train on Thursday night.

The hostage-taker, reported to be a 32-year-old asylum seeker from Iran, boarded a local train near Yverdon.

He forced the driver to stop the train and to join passengers in the carriage.

Officers stormed the train and “fatally wounded” the man after he attacked them, police reports say. The hostages were all released unharmed.

‘I refuse to be complicit in baptism dishonesty’

Reverend Matthew Firth tells how he wanted to hit stop button on the ‘conveyor belt’ of asylum seekers converting to Christianity

In 2018, when the Reverend Matthew Firth took up his new post at St Cuthbert’s, the church which has been at the heart of the north-eastern market town of Darlington since the 12th century, he was eager to bring new souls to the faith he passionately believes in.

It didn’t take long, however, for Matthew to figure out that there was something suspicious about the large number of souls from the Middle East who were queuing up to be converted to Christianity.
