When leaders ignore violence against Jewish students on campus, when they ignore intimidation in our streets, when they fail to protect communities against the horrific rise of outright antisemitism in 🇨🇦 —this is what follows.
When you intimidate and target a Jewish school, when you don’t condemn it, when you excuse it. You are part of the problem.
Wake up, Canada. We’re losing the fight for western values and the rule of law — and your governments are failing you — all of them. #cdnpoli
1/ UN secretary-general Antonio Guterres said he was “horrified” to learn of UNRWA staff ties to Hamas terrorism.
That's odd.
September 3, 2015: UN Watch Report: UNRWA Officials Operating 12 Separate Facebook Accounts Inciting Terrorism
https://t.co/KsG6HeUo9f
UNRWA is a terror organization and should be held accountable ‼️
For years, we have been calling for the dissolution of UNRWA. Yesterday, it was proven that the UN agency is not only an accomplice of terrorism, but that it also employs despicable terrorists. Yesterday in the GA, I said that the UN failed in its duty to prevent atrocities and is now part of the arsenal of weapons of those who want to destroy Israel and the Jewish people.
Watch and retweet >>
ATT: @UNLazzarini@UNRWA
Dear Commissioner-General Lazzarini:
We are hereby calling on you to resign immediately as the head of UNRWA.
We note the following:
1. We officially and with detailed evidence informed you again and again about terrorism supporters at UNRWA. You did nothing.
https://t.co/rQEmxIB0lU
2. On the contrary, you defamed us, telling donor states to “shield” UNRWA from “political attacks that seek to undermine its legitimacy as a way to erode the rights of Palestine refugees.”
https://t.co/n1JhayryQJ
3. When we exposed 113 UNRWA teachers who support terrorism, you didn't fire a single one. Instead, your response was to defame us as “an organization with a deep history of unfounded and politically-driven assertions against the Agency.” https://t.co/3qz69Kf1En
4. You then defamed us before the UN General Assembly, stating that UNRWA faced “intense politically motivated attacks” which “sought to question its mandate, its relevance and the integrity of its staff” through “attacks on the quality of the education that Palestine refugee children receive.” https://t.co/w9jgzWNShN
5. When we exposed 3,000 UNRWA teachers in a Telegram group that celebrated the Hamas massacre of October 7th, your response was to accuse us of a “smear campaign.”
https://t.co/9jUEmaNlVa
Mr. Lazzarini, you knew about terrorism supporters throughout UNRWA, but you refused to take action or even ask us for the detailed evidence.
Now that terrorism by UNRWA staff has caused many of your top donors to freeze their funds—including the US, Germany, Canada, Australia, Italy, Finland, Netherlands and Switzerland—you must take responsibility.
This Tuesday at the Joint Hearing of the United States Congress, I will be addressing the dangerous harm caused by UNRWA itself.
But at this current moment, you must draw the appropriate conclusions. We are calling on you to resign immediately.
Sincerely,
Hillel C. Neuer
United Nations Watch
Geneva, Switzerland
Apologists for UNRWA argue the problem is “only a few bad apples.”
This is a lie.
In a rare case when UNRWA was pressured into suspending teacher Riyad Nimr for supporting Jihadi terrorism, the entire UNRWA Teachers Union embraced him & went on strike: https://t.co/7G5Tvk31V0
Five days ago, we exposed a Telegram group of 3,000 UNRWA teachers in Gaza replete with praise of the Hamas massacre of October 7th.
UNRWA cast doubt that they work for them. The UN spox disparaged us.
This 🧵 will show how the group admins and members are indeed part of UNRWA.
6/ Now meet another of the admins: UNRWA teacher Abdallah Mehjez.
He does Hamas' work urging Gaza civilians NOT to leave harm's way, and instead to serve as human shields.
Before UNRWA, this terrorism promoter worked for the BBC: https://t.co/Z8Ks3HtK8h

8/ Meet Moreed Abdulaziz Issa, UNRWA teacher at Shouka Elem Co-ed School. (UNRWA contract #30016859, ID #410506307)
On October 7th, he celebrated the Hamas massacre of Israelis: “What we did exceeded expectations... what they do after doesn’t matter”: https://t.co/SHBNKbhNyK
9/ Meet Yaser, posing in front of his UNRWA classroom blackboard.
He posts to his fellow UNRWA teachers: “Oh, how much I hate the Jews.” (Source: https://t.co/rllSMt5rOW)
Your tax money pays UNRWA teachers to incite Palestinian kids to murder Jews: https://t.co/LkWGds3Upc
10/ Meet Ibrahim Sultan, sporting an UNRWA Staff Covid-19 mask.
On October 7, he posted in the UNRWA group to celebrate the Hamas attacks: https://t.co/2KoBX4jCve
Too bad his mask won't protect his young Gaza students from UNRWA's most dangerous virus: poisonous antisemitism.
18/ Between all the UNRWA staff memos, members post videos celebrating Hamas terrorists.
“Today we invade them, but they do not invade us. The time of Israel has passed and will end, God willing
Your prophecy is fulfilled, O great ones”

More "peaceful protests" scheduled for this weekend.
On the left, a Montreal4Palestine poster adverting their car rally.
On the right, #Hamas terrorists in #Gaza.
"I cannot breathe freely knowing that they are still there. I am only a teenage girl. But I beg the world to listen to my cry: save them. Bring them home now."
A powerful read by 17-year-old Agam Goldstein-Almog, who saw #Hamas murder her father & sister before her eyes. She was held by terrorists for 51 days & pleas for the return of the remaining hostages.
#BringThemAllHome

.@UNWatch exposed an UNRWA Telegram group ripe with support for #Hamas' violence & terror.
According to a November 9 GAC statement, #Canada is providing $100 million+ in tax-payer dollars to UNRWA.
Canada must review its contributions to UNRWA immediately to ensure Canadian tax dollars are not aiding Hamas supporters.
I see we’re are back to intimidating Jewish neighbourhoods and closing down overpasses the middle of Toronto.
How many more weekends like this until there is equal enforcement of the law in this country?
How many more weekends like this until the Prime Minister acknowledges the problem? #cdnpoli
“Welcome to 2024, where the City of Toronto’s latest political strategy appears to be the encouragement of further lawlessness, escalation and antisemitism, all with a friendly face,” said B’nai Brith CEO @MichaelMostyn
I used to be a Mayor and I just do not understand how this can still be happening. This appears to me to be a refusal by the City of Toronto police to enforce existing laws. There is no logic as to the choice of this location other than the large local Jewish population.
MPP @JoelHardenONDP’s outrageous comments equating Palestinian terrorists with innocent Israeli hostages and labelling them all as “political prisoners” should not be tolerated by the
@OntarioNDP or by decent Canadians.
There are no “political prisoners” in this conflict.
Palestinian prisoners accused or convicted of terror crimes are not political prisoners, they are criminals jailed like other criminals in any other country.
To label them political prisoners is fallacious and to further compare them to innocent men, women and children dragged from their homes and violently kidnapped into Gaza is perverse and sickening. @MaritStiles must not allow this to stand.
@theJagmeetSingh@NDP
Thank you @TorontoPolice
We are outraged and deeply concerned. Such an act of hate-motivated arson would be the result of three months of escalating hate and intimidation against Toronto’s Jewish community. Read our full statement: https://t.co/yWK5GxTI1h
Remind everyone — which embassy, consulate, government office, legislative building is at this specific intersection in Toronto?
Seems like the target is a Jewish neighbourhood, because it is.
Gutless politicians say the words to your boss — not to Twitter.
If you break the law you should be punished.
Apply the law to everyone who breaks it equally.
Stop emboldening the antisemitism you’ve ignored for 3 months.
Start there. #cdnpoli
