    The maple is no longer so sweet: the all-time record for anti-Semitic incidents in Canada.

    Since the outbreak of the war in Gaza, the number of anti-Semitic incidents in Canada have increased almost 7-fold, including incidents of shooting at Jewish institutions, setting fire to a bus, and Nazi graffiti. The issue worries that this is a "timed and financed campaign, a phenomenon not seen since the Holocaust and it must be uprooted"

    While the USA has become the epicenter in the world in recent year, and from its campuses come the images that attract most of the media's attention, especially since the beginning of the "Iron Swords" war, anti-Semitic incidents are also increasing in Canada, the neighbor to the north. By 340% (compared to the corresponding ten months of the previous year), in Canada the numbers are almost double and there is an increase of about 670% in the incidents of anti-Semitism relative to their number last year.

    The reason is Netanyahu. His selfish self serving war in Gaza is on the news daily. It's showing mass destruction and death in Gaza. This is really hurting the worldwide image of Israel. So, it is understandable.

    The issue is that there is an increasing population of radical Islamists that hate Jews, some even claim that Hitler was Islamist.
    Holocaust was the brainchild of the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, Haj Amin al-Husseini. - Well, not exactly but:
    When Hitler and al-Husseini met, both leaders clearly believed that Germany was going to win, and the bulk of their conversation dealt with what the Arabs should or should not do help bring that outcome about.Al-Husseini began the conversation by declaring that the Germans and the Arabs had the same enemies: “the English, the Jews, and the Communists.” He proposed an Arab revolt all across the Middle East to fight the Jews; the English, who still ruled Palestine and controlled Iraq and Egypt; and even the French, who controlled Syria and Lebanon.
    He also wanted to form an Arab legion, using Arab prisoners from the French Empire who were then POWs inside Germany. He also asked Hitler to declare publicly, as the German government had privately, that it favored “the elimination of the Jewish national home” in Palestine.

    As the numbers of Islamists increase in many countries, so the Jew haters #'s increase as well. Gaza war effect availed the growing Islamist Jihadists influence in the West.
    Some leading Nazis, particularly Adolf Hitler and Heinrich Himmler, repeatedly expressed their respect for Islam. Whenever denouncing the Catholic Church, Hitler routinely contrasted it with Islam. While he denounced Catholicism as a weak, effeminate religion, he praised Islam as a strong, aggressive, martial religion. Overall, however, it was strategic considerations, not ideology, that led to Nazi Germany's campaign for Islamic mobilization.
    WHile Abraham accords still provoide hope, Iran and it proxies do everything to sabatage and destory the state of israel. And the Jihadists around the world do the same to destory the jews and the West Democracy.

    It may be historically interesting but it is not really at all relevant to what we were talking about. At least not from what I could tell.

    There are many in the world that previously held zero animosity or negative view of Israel that are coming to the conclusion that Israel is horrible for murdering innocent Palestinians. That is because of the daily barrage of videos of the mangled dead bodies of women and children in Gaza. While it's true that Hamas started it all on October 7, what has happened since is way over the top and much more than is really necessary. Israel is no closer to destroying Hamas today as they were on October 8. Netanyahu has been doing this for his own selfish reasons, to stay in power and to stall his trial.

    Yes, we see things on some of the issue differently.
    I maintain that the Islamists and their efforts always have high animosity and negative view of Israel.
    More than that, they are proactive in their Jihadi ways, political Jihad etc.
    Indeed, they used Gaza propaganda to affect the minds of non Islamists, they had high success am0ng student populations.
    Since the outbreak of the war in Gaza, the number of anti-Semitic incidents in Canada have increased almost 7-fold, including incidents of shooting at Jewish institutions, setting fire to a bus, and Nazi graffiti.

    Palestinians have to stop killing Israelis.
    Release hostages, and Hamas to capitulate.

    I'm with Lerner on this one. I get that ignorant people draw a connection between Jews and the State of Israel that they shouldn't, but the bottom line is that even if Israel were the worst country in the history of the world, that would be no reason to kill Jews in Canada.
