The Montreal riots are a serious wake-up call for Canadian Jews. Pogroms 'Amsterdam-style' could happen anytime, anywhere in #Canada. #antisemitism #Jewish www.ctvnews.ca/politics/jol...

For someone who grew up in the #USSR, this resonates so much! #totalitarianism

I need more time to let this sink in. This person was operating a coffee shop inside the #Jewish Hospital in #Montreal. #hate #antisemitism #Canada

What an unbelievable blow to #Harris and the #Democrats. If you are still wondering why, here is a hint. Their stand on #Israel and the recent wave of #antisemitism.
In every New York City neighborhood, Kamala Harris received markedly fewer votes than President Biden did in 2020, while in most neighborhoods, Donald Trump notched modest increases compared with his last run. nyti.ms/490k4KT

Opinion - The problem with Bluesky: It won’t broaden our horizons: In the wake of Donald Trump’s election win, the social-media platform has enjoyed a surge of new users looking for an alternative to Elon Musk’s X. But will it be useful, if it just creates an echo chamber for the left?

They say, "Better late than never." It took over a year to start arresting people for blocking roads. Overall, just a "peaceful protest." #freepalestinefromhamas #canada #police #deporthamas #lawenforcement torontosun.com/news/local-n...

According to #London police, the imam who led a prayer calling for the destruction of #Jewish homes "did not meet the threshold for a criminal offence." Of course not. Calling for the destruction of Jewish homes is just a friendly suggestion #Europe20204 #antisemitism www.thejc.com/news/imams-d...
Imam’s ‘destroy Jewish homes’ sermon is not a crime, say police
Met Police urged to re-investigate speech made near to an east London Jewish community

@bsky.app vs Threads in the US
Threads’ decision to downplay politics was really a smart move, wasn’t it?
Despite a massive head start, BlueSky has now overtaken Threads in the US 👇

Who said history doesn't repeat itself? The #Berlin chief of police: 'There are areas where I would advise people who wear a kippa or are openly gay or lesbian to be more careful.' You can be sure the same stands for every main city in Europe today. #Europe #Germany #antisemitism

Vandalism is illegal, and it should never have occurred. But it happened because it was at the #Israeli consulate in #Toronto. There was no #police presence, or maybe they just decided not to intervene. No one was detained. Shame!
