Pro-Israel and anti-Muslim — working to bring UK violence here

 

After spending months promoting supremacist violence Canada’s Special Envoy on Preserving Holocaust Remembrance and Combatting Antisemitism is now openly stoking racism against Canadian Arabs and Muslims. In fact, Deborah Lyons’ recent statement highlights Zionism’s role in stirring Islamophobia and racism.

An advocate of Israel’s holocaust in Gaza, Lyons recently participated in Toronto’s Walk for Israel, an Israel flag raising ceremony and celebrated a military operation that killed 270 Palestinians to free four Israelis. Lyons has also called for state forces to repress peoples’ right to gather, smeared protests against Canada’s complicity in Israel’s violence and lent government credibility to what turned into the most publicized incident of anti-Palestinian racism in Canadian history.

But Lyons recently crossed a (domestic racism) threshold when she blamed “demographics” and “diversity” for opposition to Israel’s genocide. In a front-page National Post article headlined “Antisemitism Czar ponders role of demographics”, a Justin Trudeau appointee supposedly fighting discrimination stated:

“One of the things, again, as somebody who’s travelled a lot internationally, is, why is Canada having this unprecedented surge in antisemitism right now? What is it about the make-up of our society? What is it about our push for diversity and inclusivity? And what is it about our demographics? What is it about our country that is seeing such a level that has actually caused other countries, to say ‘What’s going on in Canada? We wouldn’t have expected this from Canada.’”  (more...)
