Canada has seen trust in the #cdnmedia drop to new lows, large scale media layoffs at Bell & Global, I'd encourage people to dig into @CBC archives, watch the brilliant historic news show " This Hour Has Seven Days " to see what #cdnpoli journalism is lacking and capable of

This is horrific. Residents of occupied Oleshky who wish to escape to free Ukraine will not be allowed to cross the Dnipro River โ€“ which is less than 4 km away. They will be taken to occupied Crimea or to the Russian Federation, where they will be subjected to coercive measures.

โ€œAt least threeโ€ means three. When this story is coupled with the answer Michael Chong got to his questions about the harassment of his family, the bigger picture is more worrisome than the two small pictures.
Not only was Mao a dictator, he rivals Hitler in the number of lives he extinguished, many through sheer incompetence. The Cultural Revolution--perhaps history's most nihilistic political movement--permanently scarred Chinese society. One of the worst people who ever lived.

The Pittsburgh Steelers made a post for the anniversary of the Tree of Life shooting, which was 8 years ago today. The comments are a cesspool of hate. Antisemites aren't satisfied with murdering Jews in cold blood. They desecrate their memories, too.

According to this Muslim former CBC broadcaster, the Muslim community in Mississauga was responsible for the new Mayor being elected because he made a commitment to target the Jewish/Zionist community in Mississauga.

"Associate membership" was a silly branding exercise. Serves you right, guys.
The EU was split today over whether to offer โ€œassociate membershipโ€ status to Canada, with several countries refusing to sign off on a statement containing that phrase just 48 hours before a summit between the two sides in Montreal. vist.ly/5q6qw

RIP Walter Koenig, whom I met at HalCon in 2010. Koenig was a gentle and thoughtful speaker. He spoke intelligently and graciously about his experiences with Star Trek and Babylon 5. He also spoke about depression and reaching out for help from those who love you. 1/3

This was deeply disturbing to watch. Most of the audience invited to chant โ€œFuck Israelโ€, โ€œFree Palestineโ€ and โ€œFuck Zionistsโ€ have little understanding of the history behind the conflict, Israel or Palestine. What should be a worldwide campaign for a peaceful solution increasingly looks like a cult movement consumed by inciting hatred against a whole country and Jewish people. The scenes were chilling, with an unsettling echo of the Hitler Youth rallies of the Second World War. jrnl.ie/7205779

All day I've been walking around shaken by a video. One where a rescuer strokes a dog wounded in an overnight Russian attack: a big, fluffy grey-and-white dog. And the poor thing is trembling in pain and dying. I can't forget the look in its eyes. There will be no video. Because for social media, it's just content. For us, it's our life.

Jews in the diaspora seem to think a change in Israelโ€™s government will be good for them โ€” for us. But it doesnโ€™t matter. The thing is, Israelis and Jews around the world arenโ€™t targeted because of a specific government or policy. Weโ€™re targeted for the crime of being alive.

The new Mayor of Mississauga will be targeting the Jewish community in Mississauga. This is very dangerous.

At the Macklemore concert in Dublin last night were multiple calls to destroy Israel and the display of maps erasing the only Jewish State. Can you imagine if the reverse was done to Palestinians. But hate against Jews is shamefully normalised. And grotesquely seen as good.

And there we have it, folks. The Irishman who went viral for threatening a Jewish couple French supermarket was found guilty of condoning crimes against humanity and making antisemitic death threats. This is what too many Irish people on this site, including an Irish Times, journalist, spread conspiracies about. This is what too many Irish people condoned, justified, and, in some cases, even lauded. What is notable here, as Daniel says, is that the Irishmanโ€™s name has been revealed as Patrick โ€” Paddy. Will we see any apologies from the Irish people who lied that the Jewish victims were using โ€˜Paddyโ€™ as an โ€˜anti-Irish slurโ€™? Sadly I just do not expect this. Because that would require an integrity that they simply do not possess.
Patrick, the Irish man who told a Jewish woman that he wish Hitler had finished the job, has been convicted of condoning crimes against humanity and of making death threats. Remember all the people here accusing the Jewish victim of using the name Paddy as a slur, well now we know she was telling the truth the whole time. Assuming she was lying in the first place is clear racism against Jews. But unfortunately I highly doubt most of them will be doing any introspection on the matter.

Muslim women in burqas voting in the Israeli elections today. Muslim women have more rights in Israel than in basically any Muslim country.

A voting booth in Israel. Notice, it's in Arabic and Hebrew. Yes. Arabs vote in Israel. They even run for office. And win. How apartheid-y! P.S. This is the hand of @samurai_611 โ€” an Arabic-speaking Druze โ€” casting her vote.

My reaction to last night's result in my hometown: "A vote for Chow was, if nothing else, a vote that didnโ€™t care about what Torontoโ€™s Jewish community has suffered. In the overwhelming majority of cases, I suspect people never even thought about it at all."
