When 2 deaths in USA overshadow Israel’s ethnic cleansing

 

Several prominent NDPers are running cover for holocaust Israel.

On Thursday former NDP MP and Toronto mayor Olivia Chow voted to suppress protests against Canadian complicity in genocide. The wife of deceased former NDP leader Jack Layton backed “bubble zone” legislation that’s even worse than what city staff initially proposed and probably unconstitutional. The measure restricts protests within 50 metres of any school, daycare or religious site that applies to be declared a bubble zone.

The crazy thing about the bubble zone push is there’s been far too little protest at genocidal Jewish supremacist institutions. Toronto’s TanenbaumCHAT, for instance, hosts “IDF day” fundraisers without anyone ever protesting at Canada’s largest private high school.

On Sunday United Jewish Appeal of Toronto is beginning its Walk for Israel’s holocaust at Temple Sinai Congregation. It will then stop at the Jewish community’s Sherman Campus. These two institutions will both likely apply to be “bubble” protected, meaning rallies won’t be allowed within 50 metres of them.

Another concession to the holocaust enabling ethos in Canadian politics was many NDPers response to the recent killing of two Israeli diplomats in Washington, DC. Echoing a racist, nationalist, ‘respectability’ posturing, Rabble.ca columnist Karl Nerenberg described the diplomats’ killing as a “hate crime” in an article that failed to employ the word “genocide”, which even “Some pro-Israel advocates are now using” noted a Times of Israel headline (Nerenberg actually quoted Netanyahu referring to “the genocidal attack on Israel on October 7”). The more appropriate term, argues Kieran Kelly, is “holocaust”.  (more...)
