While antisemitic incidents in Canada are soaring, "Jewish" anti-Zionist group doesn't say a word

In Canada over the past year, and especially recent months, attacks on Jews and Jewish institutions have reached epidemic levels.

Congregation Beth Tikvah in Montreal was firebombed - twice.

Antisemitic graffiti was found multiple times at Toronto mass transit sites.

More antisemitic graffiti was scrawled in Jewish neighborhoods of Toronto including a synagogue..

Bais Chaya Mushka Elementary School in York was hit by gunfire three separate times.

Someone set fire to the front doors of the Schara Tzedeck Synagogue in Vancouver.

Montreal’s Belz Yeshiva Ketana was shot at.

And these are only a few of the incidents.

But Canada's version of "Jewish Voice for Peace," an anti-Zionist but purportedly Jewish organization called "Independent Jewish Voices," is almost completely silent.

I can find only one mention of one incident - and that didn't condemn it, but warned against anyone jumping to conclusions that the people who smashed windows in a Fredericton synagogue were anti-Israel.

Meanwhile, in that same town, a Jewish Israeli teen was assaulted mercilessly by a Muslim student at her school over "Gaza" - on video, witnessed by several students who didn't lift a finger to help - and it took two weeks for police to make an arrest. Of course, IJV didn't say a word of protest for that or the dozens of other antisemitic incidents that made headlines in Canada over the past year.

IJV claims to be against antisemitism. Its silence proves otherwise. When the attackers have even the slightest chance of being anti-Israel, then they condone those attacks with their silence.

There is nothing Jewish about IJV. They, like similar groups in the US, UK and Australia, just use their supposed Judaism as a means to make hating proud Jews socially acceptable.

If there is still a "pintele yid" inside anyone who considers IJV to be their home, hopefully they will realize they are being used a mere props for an organization that supports antisemites.
