Applying tax rules targets ‘Jewish people’: Israeli consul

 

Zionists believe they’re above Canadian law. A Liberal MP recently stood before Parliament to demand his government intercede to ignore the rules.

In response to a sixty-page report submitted to the Canada Revenue Agency calling for an investigation into 11 school charities assisting the Israeli military in probable violation of charity rules, Liberal MP Anthony Housefather called for Parliament to denounce a “deeply troubling complaint filed with the Canada Revenue Agency and targeting 11 Jewish schools in Montreal and Toronto.” He added, “The CRA must be unequivocal that it will not allow tax laws to be weaponized against any group.”

In this case “weaponizing” CRA rules seems to be a euphemism for applying them.

The Just Peace Advocates led report asks the CRA to investigate whether the 11 state subsidized groups are violating rules stating that “supporting the armed forces of another country is not” charitable activity. Additionally, the report co-sponsored by the Canadian Foreign Policy Institute mentions the Foreign Enlistment Act, which criminalizes “inducing” Canadians to join another country’s armed forces.

Picking up from the Liberal MP’s push to protect law breakers, Mark Goldberg explicitly demanded the revenue minister intercede to demand the CRA ignore its rules. The self-declared “Zionist” posted, “MP for Mount Royal Anthony Housefather makes a statement in Commons seeking Canada Revenue Agency being unequivocal in not allowing tax laws to be weaponized against Canadian Jewish Institutions. Will Minister of Finance and National Revenue Francois Philippe Champagne provide that assurance?”

By law the CRA operates independently of the government and is mandated to enforce the Income Tax Act. As such, a minister directing the CRA to ignore schools violating charity rules would be illegal.  (more...)

Say it now: No war bank in our city, no city for war bank

 

Most Canadian politicians, even self-described left-wing ones, seem to want a war bank in their city. Apparently, they don’t care about starving social programs, linking finance to arms production or the violence it will spur.

On Thursday leftist Quebec Solidaire (QS) defended Montreal’s bid to host the new NATO war bank Canada was recently selected to house. In response to a La Presse report that those heading Toronto’s bid for the Defence, Security and Resilience Bank (DSRB) have raised the unreliability of Montréal’s candidacy due to the possibility of another referendum on Quebec independence, QS’ Sol Zanetti criticized the “campaign of fear” targeting the city’s bid. Choosing militarist nationalism over the party’s purported pacifist anti-NATO position, the co-leader of QS said, “Montreal has everything to host any organization and it has nothing to envy Toronto for.”

In Toronto mayor Olivia Chow, a former NDP MP, is promoting that city’s bid for an institution set to further marry investment agencies and major banks with arms producers. In BC the NDP premier has promoted Vancouver as a site for a bank that will offer low-cost loans to countries boosting military spending.

The federal NDP appears to have stayed mum on Canada hosting a multilateral financial institution, like the World Bank, to facilitate ‘allied’ military buildup. New NDP leader Avi Lewis has stayed silent on the DSRB despite it generally being easier to derail a project before it has begun.  (more...)

Irish 'Stop The Game' campaign urges FAI boycott 'Israel' UEFA matches

 

The campaigners cite the Gaza genocide and a worsening humanitarian crisis in the Strip.

Several prominent figures in Irish football, including League of Ireland captains and former internationals, have called on the Football Association of Ireland (FAI) to boycott upcoming UEFA Nations League matches against "Israel", citing the ongoing genocide in Gaza and a worsening humanitarian crisis in the Strip, Irish Independent reported.

The appeal forms part of a newly launched campaign titled “Stop The Game,” led by the Irish Sport for Palestine group. The initiative urges the FAI to refuse participation in two scheduled fixtures against "Israel" later this year, with matches set for September 27 at a neutral venue and October 4 at Dublin’s Aviva Stadium.

Among those supporting the open letter are Shamrock Rovers captain Roberto Lopes, Bohemians skipper Dawson Devoy, Waterford captain Pádraig Amond, St Patrick’s Athletic captain Joe Redmond, and Shelbourne forward Seán Boyd. Former Ireland manager Brian Kerr and ex-international Louise Quinn, as well as Christy Moore, Fontaines D.C., and Kneecap have also endorsed the call.

Professional Footballers’ Association of Ireland (PFA Ireland) chair Roberto Lopes issued a statement alongside the open letter, urging the FAI to prioritise humanitarian concerns over sporting commitments.

“We have to stop the game. As players and fans, our natural instinct is always to get out there and compete, but this is a moment where we need to look at the bigger picture,” Lopes said.  (more...)

Prominent Christian Zionist Group Is Lobbying U.S. Lawmakers on Israel—Without Revealing It's Funded by Israel

 

This week, Eagles’ Wings is spearheading a push on Capitol Hill against Israel’s public relations crisis. They don’t disclose their $700,000 Israeli check.

On Monday night, over 500 people packed into the Ronald Reagan Building in downtown D.C. to kickoff Israel Advocacy Day—a major pro-Israel lobbying push on Capitol Hill spearheaded by Eagles’ Wings, a New York-based Christian Zionist organization. During a break in the evening’s programming, a list of sponsors of the event appeared on screen. The list included the National Religious Broadcasters, the Jewish Federations of North America, and Israel365, a group that organized a trip of MAGA influencers to Israel last year.

The Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs was not advertised as a supporter—despite funding upwards of half of the lobbying push. Eagles’ Wings was secretly paid a total of $700,000 by the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs, $245,000 of which was allocated for its lobbying efforts this year, according to a previously unreported Israeli procurement document.

Robert Stearns, a pastor and the founder of Eagles’ Wings, did pause to thank Tammy Ben-Haim, a Ministry official, for attending—but left it at that.

The lobbying campaign plans to hold more than 100 meetings across Capitol Hill this week. “We would welcome the opportunity to meet with you to discuss the U.S.-Israel relationship,” reads a meeting invite sent to a Democratic Congressional staffer obtained by Drop Site.  (more...)

US nun describes shocking anti-Christian violence by Israel

 

Mother Agapia Stephanopoulos, an American Orthodox nun who lived in Jerusalem for 10 years and visits the Holy Land every year, spoke to TRT World about the anti-Christian attacks that she frequently witnesses.

This week, Stephanopoulos was in Washington, DC, with nearly 300 Christian leaders urging Congress to block arms transfers to Israel, resume funding for UNRWA, and restore financial support to the hospital network in occupied East Jerusalem.

She says she is outraged by the unconditional support many Christian Evangelicals provide to Israel while Palestinian Christians continue to experience ethnic cleansing.

America’s Suicide Pact

 

America’s suicidal march began long before Donald Trump. Trump and the buffoons around him are the inevitable final chapter of the decaying empire.

Civilizations, as the historian Arnold J. Toynbee famously argued, “die from suicide, not by murder.” They collapse from within. They fall prey to moral, social and spiritual decay. They are seized by a parasitic ruling class. Democratic institutions seize up. The citizenry is immiserated, wealth is funneled upwards to the ruling class and coercion is the principle form of control.

Our suicidal march began long before Donald Trump and his bizarre court of buffoons, sycophants, grifters and Christian fascists took power. It began when the ruling class, especially under the Reagan and Clinton administrations, set out to harvest the country and empire for personal profit.

There is a word for these people. Traitors.

These traitors, ensconced in the leadership of the two ruling parties, stripped us of assets and power slowly. They used subterfuge, lies and legalized bribery. They pretended to honor electoral politics, checks and balances, a free press and the rule of law while subverting all of these democratic pillars. That old system, however flawed, was hollowed out. It was turned over to the amoral and the idiotic — look at the Supreme Court or Congress — those willing to do the bidding of the billionaire class.

Armed with billions by the mortal enemy of the demos — the oligarchs and corporations — the political elites, Republicans and Democrats, destroyed the careers of those politicians who resisted. They crushed labor unions. They blacklisted honest journalists and consolidated the press into the hands of a handful of corporations and oligarchs. They slashed regulations that constrained unfettered greed and protected the population from predatory corporations and environmental toxins. They passed legislation that created a de facto tax boycott for the rich — Trump famously paid no federal income taxes in 10 of the 15 years prior to his presidency — while stripping the country of its industry and throwing some 30 million people out of work. Wealth is no longer created by producing or manufacturing. It is created by manipulating the prices of stocks and commodities and imposing a crippling debt peonage on the public.

These parasites cut or abolished social programs, militarized the police, built the largest prison system in the world and pumped funds into a bloated and out-of-control war industry. German socialist and politician Karl Liebknecht, on the eve of the suicidal folly of World War I, called German imperialists “the enemy at home.” Our rulers, our enemies at home, mounted a series of futile wars that degraded the empire’s global hegemony and poured trillions of dollars of taxpayer money into their bank accounts. Iran is the most recent example.  (more...)
