The annual ‘Walk with Israel’ march in Toronto brazenly supports the genocidal zionist entity.
Its rulers, both civilian and military, are wanted by the International Criminal Court (ICC) on war crimes charges.
Yet what was witnessed was thousands of zionists joined by Canadian politicians of all stripes at the June 7 walk.
It occurred a day after the zionists murdered a 7-month-old baby, Sam Fahed Abu Haykal in Hebron by shooting him the head.
There was not a word of condemnation for this dastardly crime, nor indeed for the hundreds of thousands of Palestinians murdered in the last 30 months.
Nor the scores of Palestinians raped in Israeli dungeons (see B’Tselem report here and UN report here).
The zionist rapists are presented as heroes on television.
It was also a day after the fifth anniversary of the terrorist attack on a Muslim family in London, ON.
Four members of the Afzaal family out for an evening walk, were deliberately run over and crushed to death by a speeding van on June 6, 2021.
This had followed the terrorist attack on peaceful Muslim worshippers at the Quebec City Mosque on January 29, 2017.
Six Muslims were murdered and another 20 injured, yet apart from platitudes no serious steps have been taken by the political class to protect Muslims.
Politicians hypocritically claim that they oppose racism and genocide but they shamelessly walk in support of the genocidal entity.
Such activities promote Islamophobia. The zionists are in the forefront of fomenting anti-Muslim hate.
Far from arresting the organizers of the June 7 hate march that supports genocide and rape, the police accused Canadians who oppose such activities of “promoting hate”.
Deputy Police Chief Frank Barredo told a press conference in Toronto on June 5 that the police presence along the walk route will be “robust”.
He also vowed to maintain greater separation between walkers and counter-protesters than has been enforced in previous years.
This is being done because last year, some march participants felt “uncomfortable” when they heard anti-Israeli chants from counter-protesters.
“Last year we were well aware of some frustration from participants. It was called a gauntlet of hate if you will.
“To the dismay of many it was too proximate to the walkers,” he said of a counter-protest that was staged near Bathurst Street and Sheppard Avenue during the walk.
“We had police officers there and there was a separation but the very fact that people, families walking by may have heard something that was offensive was really distasteful and something that we are hoping to reduce if not eliminate completely this year.”
Officers from several jurisdictions including the Ontario Provincial Police and Durham, York and Peel police will be supporting what Barredo called “crowd control efforts” and policing at the event.
To ensure peaceful counter-protesters get the message, the police will be fully-armed.
Toronto was turned into a war zone to ensure that genocide-supporting zionists are not made to feel ‘uncomfortable’!
Violence and hurling obscenities are the hall-mark of Israeli supporters, as anyone who has attended pro-Palestinian rallies in downtown Toronto would confirm.
Vile invective and intimidating tactics against peaceful protesters are common zionist traits.
Pro-Palestinian rallies are attended by men, women and children as well as Christians, anti-zionist Jews and people of other faiths.
It is becoming clear that voicing concern about the ongoing genocide in Gaza, starvation of two million Palestinians and the well-documented rape of Palestinian prisoners in Israeli dungeons is unacceptable.
Barredo told the June 5 conference, “You are going to have officers deployed on horses, bicycles and such but also officers with helmets, officers with long guns, officers with protective equipment.
“There are going to be a wide variety of police resources using a wide variety of police equipment,” he said.
This is being done to facilitate a march by people supporting mass murderers and rapists.
Such intimidating tactics violate the Charter Rights of Canadians who want to promote peace and human dignity.
Undercover agents were deployed “along the entirety of the route” looking out for what was described as hate speech and hate signage.
“Hate crime experts” were present on the ground.
For “hate crime” read, slogans condemning Israeli war crimes and declaring zionism as racism.
Like the US, Canada is also becoming zionist occupied territory.
There is a simple solution to all this.
The zionist war criminals should stop killing innocent Palestinians including children, and end their barbaric practice of torturing and raping prisoners.
Is that too much to ask?
