Since October 7th, antisemitic incidents in Canada have been on the rise. Toronto Police Deputy Chief Robert Johnson said that nearly half of all hate crimes so far in 2024 have been antisemitic. In a single week in May, a girls’ school in Toronto was shot at, bullets were found outside a Montreal Jewish school inside a synagogue, and a Vancouver synagogue was set on fire. While no one was hurt, it left Canadian Jews feeling unsettled. And over the Canada Day weekend, two synagogues in Toronto were vandalized.
Ellin Bessner is an investigative journalist who hosts the Canadian Jewish News’ daily podcast, The CJN Daily. She’s on the show to talk about how Jewish Canadians have been affected by this rise in antisemitism.

@terrysteichen873 Well then 😁: Have you heard the bad news for people who reject God? God is coming to judge this world and I don't know if you have noticed the way wars are developing in the world and places are shaking, burning and flooding constantly lately. There will be wars and rumors of wars: Matthew 24:6, etc ✅ Isreal is at war: Psalm 83, Ezekiel 38, etc 🏁 People are behaving badly: 2nd Timothy 3:1-4, Romans 1:28-32 ✅ There's also the rising amount of natural disasters and other stuff going on that are signaling end times, but I can't put the whole bible here. What to do about it: Acts 16:31, Acts 2:21, John 11:25-26

A warning signal is always what's been done in the past. I watched an Iman preaching in English. He was skirting hate speech but then switched to full on hate speech with genocide in Arabic but it was being translated on the live show. It was in Canada on a live news show. How have Muslims been treated in Canada? Another point of view is needed here. I'm glad you actually brought up the facts that most people in Canada do not hard feelings against jews when they even find the Israeli government to be problematic. The hair shirt is not usually an accurate indicator.

This was very informative and I appreciate the dialogue. I am a Jewish Canadian and I have been lucky my entire life to never be privy to antisemitism that was until October 2023. There is such a disconnect between our current reality and what is taught in schools. It’s almost as if the education system has yet to evolve and catch up with reality. These kids are brainwashed social media is used as a weapon. I am very lucky I am older, but I can’t imagine what Canada will be like in 20 years.

This is such a flimsy argument..Palestinian is a recent moniker for the arabs of palestine, whose history in Palestine, goes back to the rise of islam 1500 years ago. The Arabs of the middle-east all got their own independant states after world war 2, EXCEPT for the palestinian arabs who got tents and cinder-block concentration camps and who are still controlled by israel or tolerated as third-class stateless residents of neighboring arab states. ....Just because they didn't use the identifier ''Palestinian'' doesn't mean their ancestors didn't live in the territory that is now Israel. The Dome of the rock was built in the 600s and the Al-Aksa mosque was built in the 700s..these structures are not merely mentioned in the historical record..they exist to this day..and they're a lot more substantial thana few unearthed hebrew coins and discarded pottery. Don't deny their long-standing presence in the Holy land using a semantic trick. Their claim to at least a portion of the land, based on a 1500 year presence, is just as valid as that of a people who lived there 2000 years ago and who were largely absent from the land for 1800 years. (1st century AD to 1884 AD) . The Palestinian arabs didn't take the land from the Jews...who had already left the land when the Muslims took it from the Eastern Romans (the Byzantines)

They were a group of mixed backgrounds, multiethnic, which is cool and they tried consciously to integrate the people they conquered into their societies by welcoming their Gods. There were many languages as a result. They differ from Judeans who were stubbornly of one language, one belief and law, the Mosaic Code and believed in propagating with each other. Not into proselytizing. Most early battles were regarding not being assimilated and became stricter. We see this in Islam too in the last number of centuries/caliphates and Empire rule.

Some of the examples of Antisemitism higlighted here are abominations, and we should all do what we can to stem this tide. However, I'd like to critique this piece on a couple of points: If one can think of other countries being held to a double standard while not an example of some kind of racism, it is not the case that if held to a double standard, Israel is the victim of Antisemitism. Was South Africa held to a double standard when it was the target of BDS? Yes. There were other countries doing far worse things ( as bad as apartheid was) that weren't targeted with BDS. Another point is that in some ways, Israel is held to lower standards than Russia currently. When the ICC labels Putin as a war criminal, the West applauds, but when the ICC does the same to Netanyahu, the West threatens the ICC.

The term “Crime Againt Property” should be called “property destruction Hate Crime” because like in NYC painting Hamas Target type Triangles , and painting red Svastikas has Genocidal Holocaust Context, so what was e.g. done to the home of the NYC Museum Curator an organiser of the Nova Festival Memorial. Spray Painting a yellow smiley face on a brick wall is “Damage of Property”. Spray paining red svastikas on Jewish homes or Synagogues or university walls needs to be defined as a Hate Crime. I believe the same should apply to painting slogans like “Resistance by Any Means Necessary” which is also an Anti-Semitic call to violence againt Israeli CIVILIANS. Scary, heartbreaking times. At least most Holocaust Victims have been spared witnessing this rise in AntiSemitic Slander Tropes and anti-Jewish Hate Speech. 😢

The tragedy is that two well-educated Canadian Jews can’t speak to each other about the war in Gaza. I’m specifically referring to Gad Saad and Gabor Mate. Saad has a traumatic personal history regarding Muslim antisemitism in Lebanon. As a doctor focusing on trauma, Mate has a perspective on what the Palestinians have been experiencing as a result of military law imposed by Israel. They are both in Canada, not the Middle East, and they can’t speak to each other. If such people can’t try to understand and resolve the issue, what hope is there? And why be surprised that the war in Gaza fuels antisemitism in the larger less informed and therefore easily propagandized Canadian community?

@@aryebognar6663 One can make the same claim regarding Saad. If there’s a possibility for peace, such people must be able to meet face-to-face and not slaughter each other, metaphorically or literally. For the record, I prefer Israeli society to that of its surrounding Muslim neighbours. After two thousand years of Jewish and European interaction, Israel is more similar to the West than anyone else in the area. But Freud made an insight that is still relevant today. Based on his familiarity with European mythology and countless meetings with intact Europeans. He concluded that the Jewish tradition of circumcision was the root cause of antisemitism. Centuries before Christianity ancient Greeks considered ancient Jews primitive and barbaric because of this tradition. Today, the West and Israel vilify the Palestinians for similar traditions. Specifically: FGM, the murder of homosexuals, forced unhealthy female body covering, and rape (also within marriage). If Canada can offer anything towards a solution, it’s mandatory sex ed for all immigrants to Canada, and all Canadian children.

Being from an academic background I spent hundreds of hours reading pro-Hamas websites, listening to leading pro-palestinian channels, watching numerous videos. In almost every speech / webinar / discussion / interview / documentary Classic 120+ year old CLASSIC ANTI-SEMITIC TROPES are employed to “strengthen” so many of the pro-Palestinian arguments: I cannot explicitly write out “Classic” Anti-Semitic Tropes and Narratives because of KZfaq algorythmn key-word automatic comment removal, but I am sure you are aware of these centuries old Tropes and Hate Speech Anti-Jewish Slander Narratives regarding being: “dishonest, evil deceitful, cunning, manipulative, disloyal, materialistic, greedy, two-faced, entitled” and “Classic” 1930s Germany antisemitic beliefs that the Victims of the Holocaust “provoked” the Nazi Ideology in WW1 and “they started of WW2”, “they were kicked out of hundreds of countries including in Europe (historic falsehood not that many countries and that was centuries ago) so they “had to “ethnically remove” t the Palestinian locals”. And that they were “granted” Israel due to “playing the victim after the Holocaust even though “only 1milliom perished” . All Classic Anti-Semitic Holocaust Denial talking points. Oh and of course “they” were allowed to “steal Palestine” because “they Secretly Run the World” and “Owm Global Banks”. Again, these are all Classic Anti-Semitic slander hate speech myths about the Jewish People. Not to mention Pro-Palestinian protests and events are full of Coded “Dog Whistle Slogans” promoting and gloryfing the October Attrocites, or denying murder of civilians, mass R00pes of Israeli women at Nova , cheering over the slain bodies of Jewish civilian victims etc. which IS undeniably Anti-Semitic. Also numerous Muslim anti-Semific hate speech hate speech myths e.g. about. Jewish people being morally evil which is again, Hate Spech. And the nation who was victimized in the Holocaust is “was not “Really” Genocided in WW2 because they “always play the victim” and that my friend, you guessed it, is another Antisemitic Trope.. With Holocaust Denial narratives.. I could go on and on. It would be somethimg TOTALLY SIFFERENT if the Pro-Palestine arguments did not include the barrage of anti-semitic myth fodder mentioned above. Also need to add that listening to Jewish / Israeli documentaries /podcasts etc I also heard anti-Muslim hate speech: “uneducated, primitive, barbaric, unwise, unintelligent, lazy, ungovernable, aggressive, terrorism “prone, uncivilized, extremism loving, violence loving, etc. I am against bombings of tunnels in Gaza but have absolutely no idea what could be done to stop terrorist attacks, prevent October Repeated, and end non-stop bombing of the Iron Dome. I have zero idea what would solve the war/ conflict and I am depressed and terrified. This podcast added to that pessimism and depressed state but I am grateful to have learned so much about what is happening in Canada.
