🚨 Jewish Canadians are under attack. That is not rhetoric. It is the reality confronting Jewish communities across this country. And after this past weekend, our leaders cannot claim they do not understand the stakes. Condemnations are no longer enough. The time to act is now. Our Digital Director, @RickFirth, explains ...

Math and logic have never been a strong suit of anti-Israel "activists".

.@CBC says it values journalists with lived experience because their connection to a community can “broaden and deepen” its journalism. Apparently, that principle becomes considerably more complicated when the lived experience is Jewish. According to @KinsellaWarren’s reporting, veteran CBC journalist Neil Herland (@NEWSneil) was pulled off-air and subjected to disciplinary proceedings after documenting what happened when he arrived for Yom Kippur services in Toronto. Herland wasn’t parachuting into somebody else’s story. He was living it. Protesters were blocking the entrance to the service. Congregants were being taunted. According to the report, people were called “baby killer,” one woman was called an “ugly Jewish bitch,” and another protester shouted, “The Jew smiles while he kills babies in Gaza.” Herland filmed what he saw and later described the fear increasingly felt by Jewish Canadians. CBC’s own Ombudsman has previously defended the value of journalists bringing their lived experience and community connections into their work, saying those perspectives can make journalism richer and more informed. So what exactly is the rule? When a Muslim journalist speaks from lived experience, CBC applauds the effort. When a Jewish journalist documents antisemitic intimidation happening to him on his way into synagogue, CBC reportedly investigates him and sanctions him. CBC/Radio-Canada suspended its journalist, Élisa Serret, for engaging in antisemitism by uttering antisemitic tropes on air. But CBC suspends its Jewish journalist Neil Herland for the crime of reporting on antisemitism. That is not a small inconsistency. It goes directly to the question of whose lived experience CBC considers legitimate. And at a moment when Jewish Canadians are being told repeatedly that their fear is real, that antisemitism is escalating, and that armed police are required outside synagogues, silencing a Jewish journalist for documenting that reality would send an extraordinary message. CBC should explain the standard. Because “lived experience” cannot be a journalistic virtue for some communities and a professional liability for Jews. shorturl.at/ARc9I

How to trigger Hezbollah terrorists in 2 minutes, 5 seconds. ⬇️ This looks incredible, and we can't wait to watch 👏
Years of planning. Thousands of devices. One operation hidden in plain sight. Paging Hezbollah - in theaters October 30.

Canada gave 217 million dollars to the Palestinians last year, without demanding any accountability. ➡️ Hamas has not surrendered or laid down its weapons. ➡️ The Palestinian Authority still rewards terrorists for their terror activities. Does anyone know what 217 million dollars could do to help your average Canadian? Why are we giving aid to the Palestinians when no meaningful change has occurred? @junonewscom junonews.com/p/ottawa-58b-in…

In the @globeandmail, Liberal and Conservative MP's, Jewish leaders, and Jewish students came together in Ottawa to call on the government to move beyond words and enforce our laws so Jewish Canadians are protected from hate and antisemitic rhetoric. Funding security at Jewish institutions is a welcome and necessary step. But Jewish Canadians should not have to live, learn, worship, and gather behind an ever-growing wall of security. The goal must be making Jewish Canadians safer by confronting the hatred that makes those protections necessary. theglobeandmail.com/politics…

Bravo, @dannydanon 👏 "We love the Iranian people, and we pray for the regime change there. It will come that day." At the UNGA, watch as Israeli Ambassador Danny Dannon offers Starlink to the Iranian representative.

Public Safety Canada is finally saying out loud what Jewish Canadians have been saying for years. Antizionism = Antisemitism. This is a step in the right direction, but the true test will be whether or not @MarkJCarney and his government will enforce our laws and start holding people, groups, and organizations who use antizionism as a cover for Jew hatred to account.

Hey @CTVNews, maybe look into these groups before giving them the legitimacy of calling them 'aid organizations' @palyouthmvmt is a radical anti-Israel group that not only celebrated the Oct 7/23 terror attacks inside Israel, but has a long record of glorifying Palestinian terrorism. And @UNRWA not only incites hatred towards Jews, but also indoctrinates children with antisemitic textbooks, teaches them to glorify martyrdom, and had employees participate in the 10/7/23 terror attacks. Shame on you for giving these groups legitimacy!

After a Jewish CBC journalist documented anti-Israel activists outside a Yom Kippur service in Toronto, he is now facing discipline from our public broadcaster EVEN THOUGH journalists are explicitly permitted to write about “lived experiences". But @CBCNews has no issue with Muslim journalists doing similar, so why is there such a double standard when it comes to Jewish journalists at our public broadcaster? @kinsellawarren @TheTorontoSun

This is amazing to see ❤️ Const. Jeff Smith put his life on the line to protect Jewish worshippers on Yom Kippur, the holiest day of the year, when a gunman tried to attack a Belleville Synagogue. Because of that sacrifice, he was shot. He remains in hospital in critical but stable condition. The Jewish community and many other allies have come together and raised over $500,000 to support him and his family during what may be a long and difficult recovery.

This is straight up fire 🔥🔥🔥 "If there are any other moral cowards who haven't yet left this hall, please do so now." Watch as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu opens his address by calling out the moral cowardice of many of those at the UN.

You don't say! ... When somebody takes a gun and starts firing at a Synagogue, the chances of it being a hate-motivated crime are almost certain.
