Excellent, I agree. Because I grew up in Montreal by the time I was 30 about 1/2 of all my friends were Jewish and I feel very close to the Jewish people. I just cant believe what we are seeing in Canada, this has to be stopped.
It's sad that the UN had devolved into a woke joke. They promote initiatives like UNDRIP, never thinking about what that would mean in Britain. They support "trans rights" at the expense of women's rights. And on and on. In my youth I thought of the UN as a force for good. Now I see them as sinister.
One of the things I have been upset to see is how some Hamas apologists, who decry globalist orgs like the WHO and UN in most cases, suddenly start using the UN support of Hamas as proof that Israelis are in the wrong side of history.
"woke-joke", indeed. Apropos of which, a Note I just ran across:
"The UN has said that the War in Gaza is…nothing we’ve ever seen before…; But, 5.5 millions people died in Congo. 500k killed in Syria; 500k killed in Sudan; 300k killed in Iraq.
Yes, the bloodshed of innocents on both sides of this conflict breaks my heart but the fact that people were protesting (and celebrating) in the streets on October 8th of last year--before Israel had even fired a shot--tells you pretty much everything you need to know. There does seem to be something biblical about the world's perpetual hatred of this tiny group of people.
You can read such varying opinions on this serious issue. What I can't fathom is why protest against the Jewish people in Canada? Why are they not protesting against the Israel government and leaving the regular citizens out of it? I can't help but take out my tin foil hat for this. More division and hatred being sown. It just isn't right but then look at a number of things going on that 'just isn't right'. All part of the Division Plan.
Very good question, the one of the hour in fact which, as Bob Dylan once put it, is growing very late indeed. ICYMI, Gerald Posner has taken a kick at that same kitty:
Somewhat more broadly and deeply, some passages from Philip Wylie's Generation of Vipers -- highly recommended -- written in the midst of WW2 which speaks to the same question in the context of the Holocaust:
PW: The use of anti-Semitism by Hitler at this time is an astonishing evidence of the principle of opposites in the workings of man’s soul. ....
One reason is simple. The so-called “case against the Jew” is the case against humanity. The fault of the Jew is the fault of mankind. But it happens that, in every large nation, there exists a minority of Jews who have carefully maintained their separate identity. To ascribe to them the faults of common man—and to them solely—furnishes a convenient alibi for common man, whose doting vanity has now got him in such shape that he can bear neither to continue as he is nor to look at himself for the reasons of his course. The psychology is primitive and therefore, in modern man, infantile. It is the psychology of the school child who says, “Jimmy put me up to it” or “Tony dared me.” ....
However, that is only part of the ferocious rot. Anti-Semitism has stained the centuries. There must have been, once, a reason for it, a point of origin. And there was— long ago. The Jews, sadly enough, have their religion, to blame for their now senseless predicament. The Old Testament described punishments that will be passed on to the “fathers and sons, unto the third and the fourth generation.” They are suffering such punishment, now. ...
**The so-called “case against the Jew” is the case against humanity.** Indeed; to quote the Good Book, "all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God". We could all do with a good long look in the mirror.

No Jews no news."

Bang-on comments, thanks.
