Jews Under Violent Duress
"There is widespread bipartisan support for aid to Israel in the House of Representatives, yet this legislative branch is being held hostage from within, undermining both American and Israeli national security.""Our members are compelled by their faith to act on this issue, and at we shall."Sandra Parker, chairwoman, Christians United for Israel"I chose to speak from my heart and from my experience as an immigrant whose family escaped from the most brutal, radical Islamofascist regime in the world: the terrorist Islamic Regime in Iran.""We came to Canada because we wanted to live a better life.""We embrace Canadian values."Ontario MPP Goldie Ghamari

Canadians
in general have seen their society upended in disagreements and they
have witnessed the strange phenomenon of their government hesitating in
its support for a Democratic state that has always had the support of
democracies throughout the world, including Canada, in recognition of
the legitimacy and the need for the existence of a Jewish State, to
preserve and protect embattled Jews from the Middle East to North
Africa, after the near-destruction of the world's Jewish population in
Europe.
Worse,
a government that no longer appears to feel there is any need to
support its own Criminal Code laws against promoting hate and violence
against an identifiable group, as week after week Muslim-Canadians who
have immigrated to Canada, along with refugees and migrants fleeing
Sectarian and tribal violence in their countries of origin march through
the streets of Canadian cities celebrating the Palestinian Hamas
terrorist group's incursion from Gaza into Israel to commit horrendous
acts of savagery on Jews.
The
explosion of antisemitism and the growing violence against Canada's
Jewish community inexplicably has drawn no level of government to
declare the hate-filled marches advocating for the destruction of Israel
and a 'final solution' for Jews intolerable, prepared to instruct
police to apprehend those involved and outlaw such displays of sheer,
unadulterated celebration of vicious atrocities committed against
southern Israel's farming communities where 1,200 Israeli civilians were
slaughtered.
When
Jewish lives were in peril during the Second World War, the Catholic
Church among others did nothing to admonish the leaders of the Third
Reich that their increasing acrimony, threats and final solution to rid
the continent of the presence of Jews represented a wholesale atrocity
of genocidal proportions. The Protestant Branch of the Church did no
better. Now, it is the evangelical Christians that have committed to
supporting the Jewish State, at a time once again when Jews are
threatened.
If
it is true as many would like to believe that not all Muslims subscribe
to the hate manifested by those who mask themselves with keffiyehs,
claiming Israel to be committing genocide against Palestinians by
responding to the mass rapes, murders, mutilations and hostage taking by
Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad, the Palestine Liberation Organization
and ordinary civilian Palestinians on October 7, and that the majority
are peace-supporting and hate no one, there is no evidence of it. That
there is an absence of Muslim-Canadian voices protesting the violence on
the streets, the criminal acts perpetrated against Jewish parochial
schools, synagogues, social centres, and businesses is the reality.
We
see and hear only those Muslim-Canadians who bear signage accusing
Israel and Jews of genocide for fighting back against terrorism,
advocating for the destruction of the Jewish homeland, persecuting Jews
on the street, at universities and blocking access to areas where Jews
tend to live in groups. Nowhere do we see protesting Muslim-Canadians
who accept Jewish-Canadians as equals, entitled to live in peace and
security among the steadily growing demographic of Muslims in Canada.
Why is that?
Member
of Provincial Parliament in Ontario Goldie Ghamari and other expatriate
Iranians who fled the Republic for a life of freedom, finding it in
Canada, openly support their Jewish counterparts. Theirs is a rare
commitment among the Muslims who have settled in Canada for a better
life, yet are adamant in denying that life of security, social comfort
and prosperity to their Jewish neighbours. Jews, under duress by fellow
Canadians whose antisemitism is audible and terrifying to the
Jewish-Canadian population never resort to vilifying Muslims for being
Muslims, threaten them, bomb their mosques.
The
Liberal government of Justin Trudeau is prepared to invite Palestinian
Gazans to find refuge in Canada, adding to the already large contingent
of Palestinians living in the country who foment hate and violence
against Jews. Justin Trudeau cannot find it in himself to condemn the
rampant antisemitism and criminal acts committed against Jewish houses
of worship without linking antisemitism as a proscribed and hateful
symbol of discord, to 'Islamophobia'. The infinitely larger number of
Muslims now living in Canada as opposed to a relatively small Jewish
population mitigates against this man of authority's responsibility to
protect Jews in the greater need to placate the larger voting bloc.
