Toronto continues to be a terrible example in Canadian territory

A terrorist organization has been allowed to hold a conference in Toronto despite being banned by the Canadian government for their terror ties:

A pro-October 7 massacre conference is set to be held in Toronto in November, according to the Masar Badil Movement Palestinian Alternative Revolutionary Path Movement Instagram account, hosted by a branch of an organization banned by Canada for being a terrorist group’s front.

The Three Years of Al-Aqsa Flood Conference, subtitled “Resistance & Return From the Belly of the Beast,” is being organized by Masar Badil, an organization closely linked to Samidoun Palestinian Prisoner Solidarity Network, which was listed by Canada as a terrorist entity for its close links to the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine terrorist organization. [...]

The conference was immediately endorsed by several organizations suspected of being branches of the Samidoun network after being designated by both the US and Canada as a terrorist front in 2024.

Endorsers include Tariq El-Tahrir Youth and Student Network, the Masar Badil youth movement that previously launched a petition for the release of Capital Jewish Museum shooter Elias Rodriguez, and Nidal Seattle, run by Bissan Barghouti, the former head of Samidoun Seattle. Barghouti is also an executive member of Masar Badil. Another group was Students United for Palestinian Equality and Return at the University of Washington, which has overlapping members and events with Nidal Seattle.

Seriously, this doesn't reflect well on the Canadian government at all, but then, it's sadly been led by far-leftists for decades now. This case certainly does continue to make Ontario look like a very bad place, as awful as New York can be. If the Canadian government doesn't do anything to stop this from going ahead, that'll continue to compound what a terrible image they have.

Sex-segregated halal restaurant in Lyon closed over health violations

Over in France, a halal restaurant that operated according to Islamic beliefs in sex-segregation was closed in addition to that for health violations:

The Seven Times restaurant in Vaulx-en-Velin has been shut down by the local prefecture, pending the fulfillment of no less than 39 corrective measures for serious breaches of local hygiene rules. But this isn’t the first controversy for Lyon’s “largest halal-certified food court.”

Last December, Seven Times launched an all-girls room, which was finally ended over outcries of discrimination. The restaurant insisted that the “100% girls” area had zero link to Islam. But locals weren’t buying it.

National Rally (RN) deputy Jérôme Buisson at the time denounced the move as “unacceptable and illegal separatism” in a post sharing a TikTok video from the restaurant’s channel that clearly indicates only women may go to the girls-only room (seemingly in the back and completely shut away), while the rest of the restaurant, out in the open, is reserved for men. The man in the video is clearly pleased with the space provided for men, seemingly referencing some sort of cultural norm that this is appropriate.

Unfortunately, this is France, and people responded accordingly.

French law also stipulates that any establishment open to the public, such as a restaurant, cannot deny service or restrict access to specific areas based on sex.

When such an establishment even fails to uphold health standards, you know something's wrong.

Hugh Fitzgerald, commenting on the issue, said:

The case isn’t over, but I think rather than giving the owners of Seven Times the chance to literally clean up their act, given the great number of serious infractions of the code, it will be shut down. I’m guessing the owners will not give up, but move far from Lyons, open another health hazardous restaurant for halal-only clients in, say, Marseille, with its huge Muslim population, and do just fine, until another set of health inspectors from the Mairie comes a-calling, and shuts down that restaurant too.

Marseille is definitely another place that's in serious danger of Islamofascism, and it must be dealt with as soon as possible.

British politician Wes Streeting once made threats against Geert Wilders

As questions go about as to whether Keir Starmer will resign from his role as Britain's premier, it's sad to note that one of his challengers is the openly gay Wes Streeting, whom Geert Wilders says once made death threats against him nearly 2 decades back:

One of Britain’s most ambitious politicians, who is lined up to launch a leadership challenge against the Prime Minister as soon as today, previously said he was considering founding a vigilante organisation “to push nasty people under trains,” including prominent Dutch politician Geert Wilders.

Dutch populist Geert Wilders, the so-called “kingmaker” in the last Dutch government and the leader of the Party for Freedom, one of the Netherlands’ largest political parties, responded to the emergence of British Labour politician Wes Streeting as a likely candidate to be the next Prime Minister by recalling Streeting’s publicly expressed fantasies of political murders.

Look what UK Secretary of State for Health & Social Care @wesstreeting wrote about me in 2009. He wanted to push me - a Dutch MP - under a train.

Maybe look at your own crowd first before stopping others entering the UK, @Keir_Starmer, as Labour did with me in 2009 (which… pic.twitter.com/YLF2xrUNDq

— Geert Wilders (@geertwilderspvv) May 14, 2026

Wilders wrote: “Look what [Streeting] wrote about me in 2009. He wanted to push me – a Dutch MP – under a train”. Wilders published a screenshot of a now-deleted Twitter post where Streeting fantasised about murders, writing of Wilders and a British journalist: “Considering starting my own vigilante org to push nasty people under trains. First up Jan Moir, followed by Geert Wilders…”.

While some may attempt to rationalise away such rhetoric as harmless, death threats towards politicians are not trivial in the Netherlands. Wilders’ predecessor as the figurehead of the Dutch anti-mass migration movement, Pim Fortuyn, was assassinated by a left-wing extremist citing the defence of Islam during the campaign for the 2002 general election. Mr Wilders himself has lived under 24-hour armed police protection since 2004 over frequent threats and actual plots against his life by extremists.

The 2009 threat from Streeting was in response to an article by Jan Moir that some alleged was homophobic, allegations that led to a police and Crown Prosecution Service investigation at the time. Looking back to the episode in a 2024 article, Moir stated that police investigation found the column was not in fact homophobic and that no crime had been committed and decried Streeting’s eventual apology for the repeated threats to throw her under a train as a “pompous, self-serving non-apology… a third-person apology by proxy… a chancer’s masterstroke”.

If Moir were a Muslim, what are the chances he probably wouldn't have taken issue at all? For now, what's clear is that a very irrational man could be on the brink of becoming Starmer's replacement, even though he doesn't deserve the role any more than Ireland's Leo Varadkar, considering all the harm he enabled in the country that also affected LGBT practitioners as well. What this makes clear is that even Britain's losing its common sense in the political realm, and who knows if Streeting will ever convincingly apologize to Wilders?

USA ambassador to France hears what Jewish-French teens have to cope with

Charles Kushner, father of Jared Kushner and ambassador to France, held a meeting with Jewish-French teenagers who're on the front lines in the crisis involving antisemitism in the country, perpetrated as it mainly is by Muslims:

It was supposed to be just another official visit on the busy schedule of US Ambassador to France Charles Kushner, father of Jared Kushner.

But when Yonès, an 18-year-old from Rennes in northwestern France, refused to accept an official letter from the embassy explaining his absence from school, the masks began to fall. Yonès did not want his teachers - and certainly not his classmates - to know he was a member of a Jewish youth movement. In fact, apart from his best friend, no one at school knows he is Jewish.

Yonès’s confession was only the opening moment of an emotional and unusual meeting held at the ambassador’s official residence on the prestigious Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré. Ambassador Kushner invited young leaders from CTeen, the worldwide Chabad youth network, to hear firsthand what life is like for a Jewish teenager in France in 2026.

For two hours, the ambassador and his wife Seryl spoke not about high diplomacy, but about real life. Kushner asked direct questions: “What does it feel like to be Jewish today in a secular French school?" The answers he received were simple and painful. Since October 7, 2023, schools have become a social battlefield for many of them.

“These are teenagers living on the front line of antisemitism," said Rabbi Mendy Mottel, director of CTeen France, who accompanied the group. “The ambassador wanted to know what is really happening in the hallways, what they feel when they walk into a classroom knowing they may be the only Jews in the room."

Here's also the same story on the Jerusalem Post site:

A private meeting between Jewish teenagers from across France and US Ambassador Charles Kushner exposed the daily reality facing young Jews in French public schools, where some said they hide their identity, remove visible Jewish symbols, and wait all week for the chance to reconnect with Jewish peers.

Nine members of CTeen France, Chabad’s global Jewish teen network, visited Kushner and his wife, Seryl, on May 4 at the official US ambassador’s residence on rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré in Paris, Chabad.org reported. The teenagers, ages 14 to 18, came from CTeen chapters around the country and spoke with the ambassador for two hours about life as Jewish students in France.

One of the teenagers, Younes, 18, from Rennes in northwestern France, reportedly declined an official embassy letter explaining his absence from school because he did not want teachers or classmates to know he was active in a Jewish youth movement. According to CTeen representatives, only his best friend at school knows he is Jewish.

When Kushner asked the teenagers what it felt like to be Jewish in a secular French school, they described years of antisemitism in classrooms and a sharp rise in hostility since the October 7 massacre, Chabad.org reported.

Read more, but seriously, it's annoying that they describe the classroom as "secular" when there could be Muslims "studying" there. It's terrible this is the case. But that's exactly why on the one hand, they have to support movements for exiling the Religion of Peace from the country, and on the other hand, they should also back women and children's safety movements, since many women and children have fallen victim to violence, sexual and physical, committed by Islamofascists. And I hope Mr. Kushner will give his backing to that position too.

Nukhba jihadists must face charges for their sexual violence crimes

Sharon Zaghagi Pinhas reminds everyone that the sexual violence committed by Hamas/Nukhba jihadists in Gaza during October 7, 2023 cannot be forgotten:

One central question has not been addressed: whether the Nukhba terrorists will be prosecuted for the sex crimes committed on October 7 and in captivity. Despite repeated attempts around the world to silence and deny them, there is no doubt: grave sex crimes were committed strategically, systematically and on a large scale throughout the attack and in captivity. Many of the female and male victims were murdered, whether during the attack or afterward, and many of the crimes were committed deliberately in full view of others in order to sow terror. All publicly accessible sources clearly indicate that the Nukhba terrorists were driven by an extremist ideology rooted in an explicit intent to commit genocide and in the total denial of the humanity of Israel's population.

Since October 7, I have taken part, together with my colleagues in the Dinah Project at the Rackman Center at Bar-Ilan University, in a difficult and exhausting struggle in which the State of Israel and many civil society organizations joined forces to bring recognition and justice for the female and male victims. [...]

After all this, it is inconceivable that the indictments against the Nukhba terrorists will not include charges over sex crimes. Yet for now, all official bodies are silent whenever the question of filing indictments over the sex crimes is raised.

This silence is deeply troubling.

The sex crimes were committed as part of a mass assault by Nukhba terrorists, aimed at dehumanization and genocide. The terrorists operated inside an inconceivable "vacuum" in which everything was "permitted," murder, massacre and sex crimes alike.

Legally, in such a case, all the terrorists who chose to take part in the mass assault can be held jointly responsible for all the crimes committed during the attack, including the sex crimes, even if they did not physically commit them themselves.

And all those guilty must definitely must be held responsible, and severely punished for their repulsive crimes.

Anyway, it's good to inform that the Knesset approved a law to prosecute the monsters:

The Knesset plenum approved the second and third readings of the bill to prosecute the perpetrators of the October 7 massacre on Monday evening.

The law, which passed with a rare consensus of 93 supporters, establishes the legal infrastructure to try Hamas terrorists and their accomplices for the most heinous crimes committed during the murderous attack. The legislation sets the maximum penalty at death.

Furthermore, a dramatic reservation proposed by MKs Simcha Rothman (Religious Zionist Party) and Yulia Malinovsky (Yisrael Beytenu) was approved, stipulating that terrorists tried under this framework will never be released from prison, even as part of future prisoner exchange deals.

Deputy Prime Minister and Justice Minister Yariv Levin welcomed the approval, stating, "This law ensures that the terrorists and their accomplices will stand trial and face justice, including the imposition of death sentences. From the depths of the horrific massacre we have risen - for the memory of the murdered, for their families, for those wounded in body and soul, for those who were taken hostage, and for the entire nation - to fulfill our supreme moral obligation: to bring the perpetrators of this ghastly slaughter to justice. I thank Constitution Committee chairman MK Simcha Rothman, MK Yulia Malinovsky, and all those involved in the vital work of advancing this legislation."

The news about the investigation into the Hamas' sexual violence, interestingly enough, has been covered by CNN for starters, although not without certain PC dictations in descriptions of the monsters:

Hamas militants and their allies raped, assaulted and sexually tortured their victims during and after the October 7, 2023 terror attack on southern Israel “to maximize pain and suffering,” a landmark new report has concluded.

Shared first with CNN, the report presents the most comprehensive body of evidence yet of sexual and gender-based violence against women, men and children, which it describes as “systematic, widespread, and integral to” the assault.

“The most important finding is the fact that the sexual violence on October 7 and against hostages in captivity has been a calculated strategy by Hamas,” lead author and human rights expert Cochav Elkayam-Levy told CNN.

Notice how they stick solidly with the PC term "militants" rather than "terrorists". It shouldn't have to take a genius to make clear that kind of restriction is unacceptable.

The news was also covered by the Toronto Globe and Mail, i24news, the Jerusalem Post, and here's more from them, along with an op-ed that makes clear the racist denialism must end:

With the release of this irrefutable proof, let this be the final day of October 7 denialism. For months, the world has watched as high-profile figures used their massive platforms to cast doubt on the suffering of Israeli women. Former Pink Floyd frontman Roger Waters has been among the most vocal, publicly claiming there is “no evidence” of Hamas rapes and dismissing the testimonies of survivors and first responders as “filthy, disgusting lies.”

Similarly, activists like Samantha Pearson, a former director of a Canadian sexual assault center, and Canadian politician Sarah Jama signed a letter dismissing reports of sexual violence as “unverified accusations.”

Even entertainment industry figures, such as Susan Sarandon, have contributed to the skepticism by attempting to “contextualize” the events in ways that effectively minimize the crimes. When global feminist organizations and UN bodies waited months to even acknowledge these atrocities, they provided a shield for Hamas and signaled worldwide that the slogan “Believe Women” has a geographic and political limit.

This report removes that shield once and for all. It demands that the world stop asking for “more evidence” when the archives are already overflowing with it.

There is, however, a profound note of hope within these harrowing pages. The report’s extensive legal analysis provides a clear evidentiary basis for the investigation and prosecution of these acts as war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocidal acts under international law.

Waters is one of the most stunningly repugnant figures in the entertainment industry, and no sane person should buy his music albums. And as for Sarandon, it's about time she retired from acting. And anybody who's going to deny serious crimes cannot work at a center for treating rape victims.

Update: here's more from Breitbart.

John Daniel Davidson is wrong to use Spain's 15th century expulsion of Jews as an analogy

Well, it looks like Federalist editor Davidson's crossed the line big time, and demonstrated why his news site has to be taken with a serious grain of salt. Case in point: he's taking issue with SCOTUS justice Neil Gorsuch in relation to topics like immigration, and along the way, he employs a horrific analogy with Jews as a subject:

Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch has done a series of interviews this week to promote his new children’s book about the Declaration of Independence and very clearly has a set of talking points, including a familiar liberal trope that’s no less false and incoherent for being familiar. America, says Gorsuch, is a “creedal nation,” essentially a set of ideas that anyone can subscribe to and become an American. What’s more, Gorsuch claims America was founded as a creedal nation — a creed that enshrines the three ideals of equality, inalienable rights, and the right of self-government.

“What unites us is not a religion, it’s not a race, it’s a belief in those three ideals,” Gorsuch told NRO in a recent podcast. To Nick Gillespie of Reason he said, “Our nation is not founded on a religion. It’s not based on a common culture even, or heritage. It’s based on those ideas. We’re a creedal nation.”

For conservative-minded Americans of a certain age, repeating this mantra that we’re a creedal nation, not a blood-and-soil nation like bad old Europe, has become something of a reflex — a defensive posture meant to deflect charges of racism and xenophobia from the left.

But it’s obviously false. One way you can tell it’s false is that no one who espouses this America-as-creed idea would ever follow through on its implications. If we were really a creedal nation, and in order to be fully American you had to believe and live by a certain civic creed derived from the Declaration and the Constitution, enshrining those three ideals Gorsuch mentions, then millions of our fellow citizens today would not be considered true Americans — to say nothing of the millions of recent immigrants who have never even heard of the ideals supposedly at the heart of our creed.

If we’re a creedal nation, such people cannot be our countrymen. If we were serious about our creed, we would denaturalize and deport them. We would expel heretics and unbelievers as readily as King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella expelled all unconverted Jews from their kingdoms in 1492. That’s what creedal nations do.

Wow. If he'd made a case why Moslems need to integrate and assimilate or leave, that would've been impressive. Instead, Dumberson - as perhaps his nickname should be - chose to fall back on classic antisemitic allegories, and fail to make any distinctions between good and bad religions, if anything. If he doesn't think the USA should be founded solely on Judaism, that's one thing. But to say it was literally justified for Spain's monarchy to expel the community that founded the religion in remote times goes way too far, and I couldn't find anything about Islam in the "op-ed" Dumberson wrote. Suggesting that perhaps he really is that kind of a coward that he can't bring himself to research and point out anything disturbing about the koran's contents, and then, he even has the gall to say:

It’s telling that those most likely to invoke this notion of a creedal nation are the least likely to support something like mass deportation and denaturalization. They will declare that we’re a creedal nation but recoil if you suggest we should act like one. That’s because they either don’t understand what they’re arguing or don’t really believe it, and instead believe America isn’t a nation at all but an economic opportunity zone where anyone from anywhere can, with enough determination and skill, strike it rich.

Alas, based on what he previously told, that's why Dumberson's argument here falls flat, because he doesn't seem to either, and let's not forget his unwillingness to support a ground raid in Iran. And if he won't take an objective view of Islam, then it's hard to buy he's a devout Christian any more than the very pope he chose to whitewash. Does Dumberson also believe Jews/Israelis only came to the USA to "strike it rich"? That sounds eerily reminiscent of socialist cliches.

Amazingly, unlike Dumberson, another Federalist writer, Chris Bray, did show the courage to bring up the issue of Islamofascism while discussing Britain's election where Nigel Farage made significant gains. But it doesn't excuse the harm Dumberson's causing with his loathsome lectures, and if their staff is smart, they'll do what they can to give him the pink slip. He's as awful as Tucker Carlson, and clearly comes from almost the same school of thought.

Nigel Farage's Reform UK party finds considerable victory in British election

It looks like Reform UK scored a formidable rise in this year's parliamentary and local elections, while the leftists suffered defeats:

Yesterday was election day in the United Kingdom for local councils nationwide. It wasn’t a national election for Parliament, which determines who will be Prime Minister, but the results have still sent a shockwave through Parliament and Whitehall (Britain’s equivalent of the Swamp).

Nigel Farage’s Reform UK party did spectacularly well at the expense of both the Labour Party (hard left) and the Conservative Party (soft left). The reprehensible Green Party also got a few Labour votes, but it’s Reform UK’s surge that matters, especially in England’s North, a one-time Labour stronghold. Starmer is still in charge, but he’s already facing challenges from within his own party.

Yes, there are calls for him to resign, and considering the Islamofascist disaster he's done nothing to quell, that's one more reason why he'd do well to step down already from a job he doesn't deserve.

The north, perhaps not coincidentally, has the largest Muslim immigrant populations in the UK outside of London. In past elections, Muslims did well with “get out the vote” initiatives. Maybe the British people have finally figured out that they also need to vote. [...]

I’m one of those who think that immigration, combined with complicit hard and soft left governments, has so empowered Islam in the UK that there’s no turning back. It’s heartening to see that sizable numbers of the British population don’t agree with me. I hope they’re right and I’m wrong.

I'd say the same for France and Holland. We have to hope they too can stand up to the horror story the communist establishment set in motion decades ago.

California considers recognizing Muslim holidays

California provides one more reason why I'd rather not visit there today: they're willing to recognize Muslim holidays:

Wednesday on “The Alex Marlow Show,” Frank Gaffney, President of the Institute for the American Future and Host of “Securing America” on One America’s Voice talked about California.

Gaffney said, “This is submission. And the way you can tell is the object of these holy days is celebrating glorious conquests by Islam.”

I guess that's the only thing for which they're willing to abandon the LGBT ideology they've upheld till now. Governor Gavin Newsom continues to lead the state toward collapse, and this is one of the worst things they're willing to consider. It wouldn't be shocking if communist holidays come next.

The LGBT/palestinian war on reality

Therapist Daniel Winston writes about the similarities between the transsexual ideology movement and the fabrication of an Arab/Islamic state called "palestine", the latter word which was coined by the Roman empire and put to use by anti-Israelists in over 50 years for delegitimazation purposes:

One of the defining absurdities of the modern West is not that human beings imagine things. Human beings have always imagined tribes, roles, myths, masks, costumes, and symbolic identities. The deeper absurdity is that entire political and moral systems are now expected to reorganize reality around subjective feeling and declaration.

If enough of the “right" kind of people assert something loudly enough, emotionally enough, and long enough, the claim is no longer treated as a claim. It becomes an identity. Then it becomes sacred. Then questioning it becomes “violence."

This is the twisted age of imagined identity.

The pattern is visible in the most radical corners of transgenderism. Human gender is not assigned by mood, costume, declaration, or bureaucratic intimidation. In ordinary human development, XX chromosomes are associated with female development and XY chromosomes with male development, with the Y chromosome and SRY region typically directing male development. Yes, differences of gender development exist. Medicine recognizes chromosomal and anatomical variations. But those conditions prove that biology is real, not that sex is an inner feeling detached from the body.

The existence of medical exceptions does not abolish the biological categories by which the exceptions are understood. This is not an attack on people who suffer from gender dysphoria. Serious people can recognize real distress without cruelty or mockery. But compassion for suffering is not the same as surrendering reality to the tyranny of personal or group fantasy.

Yet the new doctrine demands more than kindness. It demands metaphysical obedience. A man becomes a woman because he says so. A woman becomes a man because she feels so. Some now float identities so untethered from biological reality that the self becomes an act of private invention, while the rest of society is commanded to applaud.

This same civilizational pattern helps explain another modern invention: the myth of an ancient “Palestinian Arab people."

Arabs lived in the Land of Israel. Families, clans, villages, Muslims, Christians, and others lived there. That is not the issue. The issue is whether there existed, before the modern war against Zionism, a distinct ancient Palestinian Arab nation with its own sovereign history, language, kings, institutions, literature, currency, religion, or national consciousness.

There did not.

Even Arab and pro-Arab sources repeatedly said so both before and after the mythology hardened into international theology.

-In 1919, the General Syrian Congress told the King-Crane Commission that there should be “no separation" of “the southern part of Syria, known as Palestine," from Syria.

-In 1946, Lebanese-American historian Philip Hitti testified that there was “no such thing as Palestine in history."

-In 1977, senior PLO official Zuhair Mohsen told the Dutch newspaper Trouw that “the Palestinian people does not exist" and that a separate Palestinian identity was maintained “for political reasons."

-More recently, Hamas official Fathi Hammad acknowledged that many 'Palestinian' Arabs trace their origins to Egypt and Saudi Arabia.

These are not “Zionist extremists" denying Arab humanity. They are Arab and pro-Arab voices acknowledging what history shows: “Palestinian" was long a geographic and political label before it was retrofitted into an imaginary ancient nationality. The books Phantom Nation by Shai ben Tekoa and From Time Immemorial by Joan Peters document this reality exceptionally well.

Under the British Mandate, Jews were called Palestinians and Arabs most expressly were not. The Jerusalem Post was originally the Palestine Post. The Palestine Symphony Orchestra was Jewish. “Palestine" was a place-name used by foreign rulers, not the name of an ancient Arab nation. The term itself was imposed by Rome after the Bar Kokhba revolt as part of an effort to erase Judea from the map using the name of the Jews ancient enemies, the Philistines, to further the humiliation of the conquered Jews.

Read it all, and see how disgraceful it is that this warping of reality continues, right down to how LGBT practitioners are perfectly willing to ally themselves with the Religion of Peace, because for both antisemitism trumps all.
