No Country for Jewish Men

 ... or women or children.

But don't take my word for it:

Leave it to Canada to try to reconcile accounts of Hamas gang rape with the modern morals of the West. Take the Canadian embassy to Israel, for example.

“Sexual & gender-based violence impact both Israeli & Palestinian women and girls, and also men and boys, in distinct ways,” it wrote in a post this week. “Canada condemns all use of sexual and gender-based violence as a tactic of war.”

That’s right. Instead of condemning the many instances of sexual violence perpetrated against Israeli women by terrorists of the Palestinian government on Oct. 7, Canada’s embassy diffused blame and victimhood across the entire region as if it happened equally, to everyone, everywhere.

Indeed, it’s quite clear who did the raping and who suffered the unthinkable. Many accounts won’t be heard because many of the victims are dead, but Hamas left enough evidence in the carnage. The BBC has reported of photos from attack sites showing bodies of Israeli women naked from the waist down showing signs of trauma. Eyewitnesses have described gang rape and execution, while first responders have found horrific injuries among the corpses: broken pelvises, bruises, tears. Now-released hostages have also recounted experiences of sexual abuse in captivity.

 

Canada refuses to take a stand against the violence seen in Israel on October 7th because it would involve some moral clarity and an enormous backbone.

That is something Canada once did but not anymore.

Now, it is all about making Israel the subject of blame (SEE: votes, election, motion M-103, Islamophobia czar).

There is something about a Canadian that loves a bully:

Canada eventually will support an "accountability system" to investigate Israel's military conduct during its war against Hamas, Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly said Monday.

 

(Sidebar: this little b!#ch refused to even acknowledge the rape of Israeli women. Not that anyone needs to hear a know-nothing to say it but such things are her job, so ...) 

Canadian leftists have even threatened Israel with the idea of sending the RCMP to bungle the investigation into rapes of Israeli women.

And, of course, the ceasefire that will allow Hamas to regroup:

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is calling for a resumption of a pause in the Israel-Hamas conflict, and says Canada supports efforts “towards a sustainable ceasefire.”

(Sidebar: this Hamas.)

 

Please, Justin - stand in front of the missiles.

This is all under the silly notion that anyone actually cares what Canada thinks.

Rep. Stefanik pushed the three university presidents hard, each in turn, requesting at least by implication an affirmative response to “the easiest question to answer”: “Does calling specifically for the genocide of Jews violate (your university’s) code of conduct or rules regarding bullying and harassment?” To understand what happened next, in all three cases, it is necessary to understand that these selfsame codes and rules have been a veritable shibboleth of the moralizing activists the three presidents concerned so directly condone, support and produce. For years, a continuous clamour has arisen from the snowflakes, allies, Marxists, post-modernists and generally psychopathological neurotics concerning the absolute danger of speech that could in any way imaginable cause offence to anyone imaginable under any circumstances whatsoever.

What the installed university presidents will not defend is true free expression, as any offending party at their respective universities would find themselves run afoul after not using the correct pronouns. These installed personages are happy to let things slides because it suits them.

 

Also:

Today, the idea that Zionism equals Nazism is common in Western academia and culture. The narrative of decolonization, national liberation, and Israel as imperialist aggressor is well represented in course curricula. Bard College offers a class on Israeli “apartheid.” Princeton offers a class called “The Healing Humanities: Decolonizing Trauma Studies from the Global South.” Included among the readings is a book that claims Israelis harvest Palestinian organs. Myriad ethnic-studies departments — and not only those having to do with Arabs — have issued statements supporting Hamas’s October 7 attack and rejecting the characterization of Hamas as a terrorist organization. And left-wing activist groups such as Black Lives Matter claim the Palestinian cause is similar to their own.

It may be that none of these groups or individuals has read Mahmoud Abbas’s dissertation at the Patrice Lumumba University. But they demonstrate that the antisemitic propaganda of the Soviet Union has outlived the Soviet state, to baleful effect.

 

Students are primed and ready to be the new useful idiots.

Menorah-lightings — a Hanukkah ritual traditionally ranked as one of the more innocuous events on civic calendars — are suddenly becoming the subject of cancellation or condemnation on the grounds that they are “offensive” or would “inflame tensions.”

Article content

This week, Calgary Mayor Jyoti Gondek announced she will be intentionally missing the city’s official menorah-lighting, the first mayor to do so in the event’s 34-year history. The event typically sees a few hundred people gather in the City Hall atrium for free latkes and Klezmer music. Former mayor Naheed Nenshi was known to show up in his signature purple yarmulke.

But in a Wednesday statement, Gondek said that her attendance would be seen as “choosing a side” in the Israel-Hamas conflict.

The event’s Orthodox Jewish organizers, Chabad Lubavitch of Alberta, had advertised the event with a poster that included the line “supporting Israel.” And according to Gondek, this was a “charged” statement that forced Calgarians to choose “one community over another.”

“It goes against the mission to uphold diversity and inclusion,” she wrote.

 

There is your problem.

That liberal pablum is as empty as the Liberal Party ethics book.

Diversity and inclusion is a total mirage conjured by various special-interest groups to divide and lord over those upon whom they look down, as are evidenced with cancelled Hanukkah celebrations. These platitudes are never meant to promote and embrace tolerance. That's a puff of smoke.

Jyoti Gondek is trash, to be sure, but she is no different than any other spineless empty-suit who either hates Jews or cannot summon a molecule of courage to defend them.

 

Also:

It’s a matter of misinformation; a lack of education; brainwashing.

If it’s not that, we must consider the possibility that Canada — known the world over for its multiculturalism — is home to a significant population of genuine terrorist empathizers.

Or, there is a third possibility — Jew hate. Plain and simple.

But it’s really not that simple. ...

Every Canadian has a choice to make.

Are you going to permit Jew hate to flow in our streets, or are you going to take a stand against all forms of hate against any people and protect our Jewish communities?

Are you going to stand with Israel, the country fighting our war against jihadism, and help innocent Palestinians by freeing them from the terrorist regime that runs Gaza, or are you going to blame Israel and continue to funnel support into the pockets of a handful of thugs who will do nothing to improve the lives of their people, but who instead will continue building tunnels and waging holy war against western civilization?

Are you going to continue to think there is a moral equivalency between Israel and Hamas because you want to be impartial or politically correct, at the expense of the truth?

Are you going to support a world view that justifies chopping off heads and baking babies alive? Or one that cherishes the life of every single living thing?

Are you going to see that Jews were chosen as front-line executioners of evil because we are among the most merciful of nations?

Are you going to finally accept and embrace us with an open heart?

 

Dare I utter an unpopular opinion? 

Wake up.

If Canadians won't care about their own countrymen blown out of the sky over the Irish Sea, why would they care about you?

Israel is a far away country. Canadians don't care.

We are surrounded by people who hate the Saturday and Sunday people because the prevailing parties need votes.

Your "give peace a chance" is utter codswallop and does not instill the iron stomach needed to see that the barbarity in Israel and the indifference to it cannot be beaten with the sham that is inclusion.

 The October 7th attacks have brought out of the woodwork what Canada is now: vile, ignorant animosity and complete indifference to the human condition.

Neither Hanukkah nor Christmas are about the birth of polar bears:

A University of Alberta law student says she’s frustrated after her request to display a menorah in a study space led the faculty to instead remove Christmas trees.

Rachel Cook said she approached staff at law student services Tuesday after noticing Christmas trees, garlands and other seasonal decorations around a campus lounge. She offered to provide an electric menorah to mark Hanukkah and supplement another menorah lit on campus Thursday.

While the response was initially positive, Cook, who is Jewish, later received an email from a vice dean regarding her “concerns” about the existing decorations. He offered a bookable room for a lighting ceremony or to display a menorah, but said decorations in public spaces were meant to be “non-denominational.” The Christmas trees have since been removed, though a variety of garlands, decorative polar bears and lights remain.

But you still give them your money:

A decision by Canada’s largest government workers’ union to donate $50,000 to two Gaza-based charities is raising the ire of some members, who say they’re fed up with funding politically-charged causes while concerns among their membership go unaddressed.

CTV News faces a formal complaint from B’nai Brith over its coverage of a pro-Israel rally on Parliament Hill. Announcer Omar Sachedina is accused of using needlessly inflammatory language to characterize the peaceful protest: ‘Announcers must avoid allowing their personal biases to influence their reporting.’

 

We have sunk so low as a civilisation that I am having trouble seeing how we get back to the starting point.
