Violence at a Toronto speaking event has sparked calls for more scrutiny on Israeli soldiers entering Canada, with some saying they should be barred entry or investigated for potential participation in war crimes related to the Israel-Hamas war.
Police arrested and charged six protesters after an event organized by a Toronto Metropolitan University student group Students Supporting Israel (SSI) this month that featured Israel Defence Forces (IDF) soldiers as speakers.
While SSI blamed protesters for a chaotic scene that included screaming and a broken glass door – protesters can be seen on video banging on the venue’s front doors as they are being held off by police — clips shared by Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) Toronto show one of the IDF soldiers grabbing and shoving protesters.
Jews are welcome in Canada. Zionists can fuck off and die.
So only “the good ones” are allowed?
This is typical of the way racists think,.
“Some Nazis are good Nazis”
I know that you think there are good people in an ideology that rationalizes hatred towards Jews.
Zionism isn’t a race, and white Christian Zionists are welcome to fuck off and die as well
Thanks for proving that you’re in a hate group.
Says the one who defends a hate group disguised as a military force.
Naw, thanks for proving you’re an idiot though
Nice Germans who who are respectful and tolerant are welcome. Nazi Germans get shot at. That’s what your granddad would probably say. Listen to granddad.
My grandfather actually prevented Nazis from getting shot. They had surrendered and some others wanted to shoot them anyway. By preventing some Nazis from getting shot, my grandfather prevented a war crime from happening.
I’m not so naive as to believe it went this way everywhere during the war. In fact I know a guy from my home town who killed a civilian in Italy for no reason. Just an old guy walking down the road killed for no reason. There was no court martial, he just got chewed out by his CO and they moved on. So there was a war criminal living my home town. The other old fellas never talked to home but most people didn’t know anything about what he did in the war.
So I understand that not everyone that fought in WWII (the “good” war) were good people. There were many war criminals on the allied side, we just don’t talk about it much. But my grandfather was a good man for preventing those soldiers from being executed. I felt like I owed it to him to learn about why Germany gave into the Nazis.
I’m seeing the people go down that same path today. The same rationalizations for antisemitism the Nazis used are being used again. It’s shameful that the younger generation can’t pick up a history book and see the mistakes they’re making. Why would you want to be the antisemitic generation?
I’ve also looked at the photos of German cities at the end of the War. They’re the same as photos of Gaza today. This is what hatred leads to. The German people were able to move past the cycle of hatred and become a prosperous country.
Right here I’m not seeing people wanting to move past their hatred and build something better. It seems people don’t want to build a prosperous Palestinian state, they just want to stay in a cycle of hatred and violence forever.
You may feel like reconciling with Israelis is weak, but the alternative is another war like the one we just witnessed happening again. Is that what you want? The real weakness is wanting more Palestinians to die for the sake of some manufactured hatred of Jews.
My point was to sort the good from the bad. To support those who are against evil and fight against those who perpetrate it. Shooting unarmed prisoners of war is nazi like, and while as you say, such things are done by all militaries, it is a thing of evil and should be hindered, in the same way that we should hinder the nazis from shooting people.
The motivation of Nazis for killing people was that they believed they were “sorting the good from the bad.”
Why do you believe you’re the best person to judge who is good and who is bad? When you’re thinking that bad people should be killed and you think all Israelis are bad (~30% of the Jews in the world) you’re starting to seem a bit too close to the Nazis than you might have considered.
Such gaslighting. Much wow. Very gross.
I don’t think that word means what you think it means.
