"Trudeau ponders his political belly button while "antizionists" shoot up a school" by Brian Henry

December 21, 2024

For the third time, a school for little girls in Toronto has been shot up. Why? Because the girls who go to Beit Chaya Mushka Elementary are Jewish.

And what’s our Prime Minister doing? He’s wholly consumed with holding on to power. It’s not just the opposition, most of the Liberal caucus are calling for his resignation. He says he’s “reflecting on his political future.” Should he stay or should he go?

Things were bad enough a month ago. While our Prime Minister fiddled the night away at a Taylor Swift concert, Montreal burned. In anti-Jewish riots, “pro-Palestinians” torched cars, smashed storefront windows, and attacked police officers (here). Why? Because, they feel, Canada and NATO aren’t not doing their part in the sacred war to wipe Israel off the map.

Yes, I know, this supposedly makes them antizionists, not antisemites. I’ve been told specifically and personally by the Jew-haters – sorry, Zionist-haters – who show up every Sunday at the intersection of Bathurst and Sheppard, in the heart of Toronto’s Jewish neighbourhood, that they don’t hate Jews, just Zionists.

So, we need not worry about the little girls at that Jewish school. They deserved having their school shot at. Because not only are they Jewish, but those little girls, their parents, and their teachers are all Zionists. Indeed, ninety percent of Jews in Canada are Zionists, and among Jews who care about being Jewish, that percentage is much higher.

For that matter, about 80% of all Canadians are Zionists, because Zionism is simply the belief that Israel has a right to go on existing, and the Jews and others who live there have the right to go on living.

This is not what our “antizionists” believe. Last month, one of the Bathurst and Sheppard protesters came dressed up as Yahya Sinwar (killed by Israel in October). This is very like showing up in a Jewish neighbourhood dressed up as your hero, Hitler.

At Bathurst and Sheppard, man on chair dressed as Yahya Sinwar. Another man holds a sign with an inverted red triangle – the sign used by Hamas to designate people they want to kill and which has spread worldwide to become the contemporary equivalent of a swastika. And a woman holding sign reading: “Free flights to Amsterdam” – where thousands of thugs had recently led “Jew hunts” through the streets (here). — Source: Friends of Simon Wiesenthal Center (here).

Sinwar was the Hamas leader who masterminded the terrorist assault of October 7. The man who ordered the mass slaughter or kidnapping of every Israeli the invaders could find – man, woman, and child. The man who ordered a campaign of mass torture and of mass rape and sexual mutilation. The man who ordered it all filmed for the delight of fellow “antizionists” and the horror of the victims’ friends and family.

This was the man whom Palestinians – not Israelis, but Palestinians – nicknamed the Butcher of Khan Yunis for the many, many Palestinians he had tortured and executed because he suspected them of collaborating with Israel.

This is the man who masterminded the war between Hamas and Israel, in which Hamas’s entire defensive strategy has been to burrow beneath the cities of Gaza, to embed themselves within hospitals, schools, and mosques, and to hide weapons or tunnel entrances in half the homes in Gaza – in short to make it impossible to get at Hamas without going through civilians.

This is the man who is a hero to the “antizionists” among us.

And what has been our government’s policy? Why to occasionally tweet its concern and to declare that Israel has a right to defend itself against those who would gleefully film themselves murdering all the Jews on the planet. But our government’s policy is also apparently that Israelis must defend themselves with their bare hands, because our government also forbids arms sales to Israel.

In an interview for CTV, former NDP leader Thomas Mulcair put it to our Foreign Affairs Minister, Mélanie Jolie, that the government’s policy was incomprehensible. Her reply? “Thomas, have you seen the demographics of my riding?” (here).

Mulcair wrote: “I was astonished to hear such a candid admission that very local politics were playing such a role in shaping Canada’s foreign policy on this highly complex and sensitive issue.”

Of course, it’s not just Jolie’s riding. The Liberals can count. They know that among people for whom the issue might move their vote, Hamas supporters greatly outnumber Israel supporters, especially in urban and suburban ridings where the Liberals must get re-elected if they hope to escape being wiped out in the next election.

This accounts for why Trudeau supports anti-Israel fictions and policies that play into Hamas’s war aims – so much so that Hamas has publicly thanked him for his support (here). Trudeau hopes to buy the votes of the Zionist-haters. And if this results in encouraging these “antizionists” to shoot up a school for little girls? Ah well, he has far more important things to consider, such as his future!

Should he go?

Yes, please!
