The Montreal riots are a serious wake-up call for Canadian Jews. Pogroms 'Amsterdam-style' could happen anytime, anywhere in #Canada. #antisemitism #Jewish www.ctvnews.ca/politics/jol...

What an unbelievable blow to #Harris and the #Democrats. If you are still wondering why, here is a hint. Their stand on #Israel and the recent wave of #antisemitism.

The problem with Bluesky: It wonโ€™t broaden our horizons In the wake of Donald Trumpโ€™s election win, the social-media platform has enjoyed a surge of new users looking for an alternative to Elon Muskโ€™s X. But will it be useful, if it just creates an echo chamber for the left?

Four pro-Palestinian protesters arrested for allegedly blocking road Police laid multiple charges against pro-Palestinian protestors Monday night.

They say, "Better late than never." It took over a year to start arresting people for blocking roads. Overall, just a "peaceful protest." #freepalestinefromhamas #canada #police #deporthamas #lawenforcement torontosun.com/news/local-n...

Imamโ€™s โ€˜destroy Jewish homesโ€™ sermon is not a crime, say police Met Police urged to re-investigate speech made near to an east London Jewish community

According to #London police, the imam who led a prayer calling for the destruction of #Jewish homes "did not meet the threshold for a criminal offence." Of course not. Calling for the destruction of Jewish homes is just a friendly suggestion #Europe20204 #antisemitism www.thejc.com/news/imams-d...

Fascinating! According to this report, one in five immigrants to #Canada eventually relocates to another country within 25 years. #immigration inclusion.ca/wp-content/u...

Who said history doesn't repeat itself? The #Berlin chief of police: 'There are areas where I would advise people who wear a kippa or are openly gay or lesbian to be more careful.' You can be sure the same stands for every main city in Europe today. #Europe #Germany #antisemitism

Vandalism is illegal, and it should never have occurred. But it happened because it was at the #Israeli consulate in #Toronto. There was no #police presence, or maybe they just decided not to intervene. No one was detained. Shame!
