Last night, two Montreal Jewish schools were targeted by an unknown shooter. No one was injured, but these hideous acts of antisemitism are unacceptable.

There is no place in a just world for antisemitism, and there never will be. Attacks against Jews hurt us all.

@canlawforpal I would like to sign.

Israel has killed a hundred and forty children a day for more than three weeks and not one word about it from the @bcndp.

Just a breathtaking absence of compassion and integrity from this province’s “progressive” party.

The Ministry of Health is now reporting 400 people dead at the Jabalia Refugee Camp. This is an unspeakable crime

People have started going hungry.

Israelis increasingly using phosphorus bombs. Treated a 13 year old yesturday with distinctive phosphorus burns to both legs and thighs.

Palestinians search for their family members under the rubble of the houses that were completely brought down by lsraeli warplanes last night amidst a heavy series of air attacks.

As Canadian Ambassador to the United Nations, Bob Rae tweets about Gaza being a humanitarian disaster, it is important to know Canada and Mr. Rae abstained in a U.N. vote calling for a ceasefire in the region held today.

The number of incredibly smart, thoughtful, engaged young people I know who are saying they’re never going to vote again. Something to pay attention to.

Total Devastation: Images of survivors picking through the rubble of the Saint Porphyrius Church in Gaza, the world's 3rd oldest Christian building.

Four Israeli missiles hit the building tonight.

Church authorities estimate there are already 150 dead.

Collective punishment -mass indiscriminate violence against Palestinians, displacement, starvation, deprivation of water, fuel, aid - is terrorism too.

I won't forget or forgive the people who have tried to justify it. I hope their conscience won't let them forget either

Vinegar from the corner shop to treat pseuodomonas bacterial wound infections. Its come to that.

HAPPENING NOW: Hundreds of American Jews are holding a sit-in at Congress — and we won’t leave until Congress calls for a ceasefire in Gaza. As thousands of U.S. Jews protest outside, over 350 are inside, including two dozen rabbis, holding prayerful resistance.

[Anjali Appadurai @AnjaliApp]

Makes sense that so many of us are disoriented by the garish spectacle of western govts' desperate political signalling in support of genocide. It's beyond the scope of a normal human conscience.

So let this be your reminder: your moral clarity is needed, more than ever, now.

Most foreign correspondents for major media outlets - myself included - have the luxury of being able to leave an assignment when things get too dangerous. Every photo + video in our news media from Gaza this week is taken by someone who cannot escape. https://t.co/2AvEF43fNY

@avnishnanda I don't know if law school is this influential. There's plenty of lawyers who are ignoring both ends right now. Refusing to call for substantive justice, and refusing to call war crimes by their name. Clarity in the law doesn't seem important to them in this moment.
