Canadian media outlets are destroying themselves. Read @kinsellawarren's, "The Hidden Hand" to learn about the Qatari/Iranian anti-western propaganda campaign (built on the old Soviet Cold War education subversion strategy). Also: "Woke Army" by @AsraNomani.

Hey @CityNewsTO, why are you platforming activists who are whitewashing anti-Palestinian racism (APR) without challenge or balance? Your reporting presents their claims uncritically, while excluding perspectives that raise legitimate concerns about APR and its implications.

In truth, APR redefines criticism of Palestinian narratives as "racism," attempting to muzzle legitimate debate, and is used to shield anti-Israel propaganda from scrutiny while marginalizing Canadians who support Israel.

APR isn’t about combating hatred, but rather about imposing a hardline anti-Israel ideology under the guise of anti-racism.

This is important context that must be included in your reporting!

Antizionism in academia has not only been tolerated – it's been enforced.

Speaking at the European Parliament in Brussels, philosopher and independent scholar Maarten Boudry (@mboudry) argues that the apparent academic “consensus” accusing Israel of genocide is not a true consensus at all – but the result of ideological pressure and what psychologists call a “spiral of silence.”

Behind closed doors, he says, many academics privately dissent.

But in public, almost none are willing to say so...

Terry Newman: Leaked email reveals secret meeting between human rights museum and Palestinian ambassador

The optics of foreign interference in the controversial 'Nakba' exhibit is not a good look for the embattled museum

@AnitaAnandMP This will be wasteful and counterproductive unless it focuses on deradicalization in Palestinian society (and here, for that matter). Start with rejecting the false narratives about Zionism/Israel and tell the truth about the nature of this conflict.

Toronto’s @MayorOliviaChow just personally invited FIFA referee, Omar Abdulkadir Artan, to her city after the United States BANNED him for suspected ties to terror organizations.

The SAME referee who publicly wrote that ‘Jews, target Muslims and Arabs, and suck their blood.’

She didn’t just invite him. She WROTE TO FIFA to make it official. And do you know what she called it? A commitment to fairness. Inclusion. Giving talent the opportunity to shine.

So let me get this straight. The U.S. says: terror associations, not welcome. Olivia Chow says: perfect, @cityoftoronto will take him. And the man she’s championing has a history of publicly inciting Jew-hate and spreading blood libels.

This is not an oversight. This is a mayor of a major Canadian city telling you exactly who she thinks deserves her protection - and exactly who does not.

Great article.

“ The UN has become one of the most dangerous instruments in modern geopolitics. Authoritarian regimes are using the UN’s prestige to normalise their behavior, conceal their crimes and peddle anti-Western propaganda. It should terrify all of us that the world’s most trusted watchdog has been successfully leveraged as a PR firm for tyrants.”

“It's not the responsibility of my office to do any verification.”

And yet this woman authored an entire report condemning Israel. Evidence be damned.

[Yardena Schwartz @yardenas]

It’s one thing to call for a two-state solution. It’s another thing to present Israel as the sole obstacle to that solution.
This is what it looks like when an elected official works to actively misinform the American public.

I've seen Hamas putting IEDs in every space one can imagine, behind bathroom mirrors, under food, built into the walls of homes, courtyards, tunnels.

UNRWA “reform” was a complete sham. The entire agency is infested with terrorists. Shut it down now.

[CG Idit Shamir 🇨🇦🇮🇱 @ShamirIdit]

“Palestine Action - Canada” named eleven Canadian targets, published their locations, and released an operational manual on how to attack them instructing followers to form underground cells, damage property, evade law enforcement, and destroy evidence.  

The UK designated the organization a terrorist group. 

Read carefully B'nai Brith Canada’s warning of this serious risk to Canadian society.

Israel’s October 2023 Gaza airstrikes were widely portrayed as "indiscriminate" attacks on homes, used to support false claims of war crimes and genocide. Now Hamas and PIJ's own martyr notices prove the opposite: those strikes targeted their commanders. Examples below:

Keep an eye on this. Democrat foreign policy for 2028 to be led by Maher Bitar, a founder of Students for Justice in Palestine. A Palestinian himself, he worked under Biden’s NSC but President Trump revoked his security clearance. This is where the Dems are heading.
