The West at War

The West at War
The West is at war, yet many don’t yet realize it.
Islamofascism – radical Islamic terrorism – has permeated our societies to a point that I feel is extreme.
The average citizen in many Western countries often cannot walk the streets in peace, drive down streets, or attend universities or schools without the all-pervasive and threatening presence of Islamist radicals keeping them from their absolute right to freedom of movement and freedom from harassment or worse, violence in its crudest form.
Before readers tarnish me with accusations of being a shill for Israel or hating Muslims, please read on.
Since the Hamas terrorist attack on Israel on October 7, 2023, its kidnaping and massacre of hundreds of hostages, and the massive Israeli response, the West has been held hostage by those who call for the destruction of our institutions and way of life.
Across our streets and university campuses, they call for global intifada – the implications of which we see daily on our streets and in our media.
From the streets of London and Amsterdam, from Paris to Montreal, militant Islamists have been on the march.
They preach hatred not only for Israel and Jews, but for our very democratic institutions that define who we are and that defend our right to be ourselves and to enjoy our culture.
And now, the International Criminal Court (ICC), of which Canada is a member, has created a legal moral equivalency between a democratic state in which Arabs, Jews, Muslims, Christians, and others live in a peaceful integrated society and a terrorist organization bent of destroying that same state, Israel, and eliminating all Jews from the face of the earth.
The Syrian butcher Assad, who has massacred hundreds of thousands of Arabs, walks free.
Erdogan, the butcher of Ankara, continues to massacre tens of thousands of Kurds both at home and in the region.
Khamenei, the butcher of Tehran, continues to oppress his own people, murder girls, women, and men, as well as fund and arm terrorist groups around the world.
They all walk free because, it would appear, no Jews, no news.
Muslim on Muslim violence is condoned across the Western world with nary a hint of protest.
Meanwhile, Putin, the Russian butcher, is, like Hamas and Hezbollah with Israel, an aggressor who is hell bent on wiping Ukraine and Ukrainians off the map.
Canada is a signatory to the Rome Convention that created the Court.
And yet, neither Canada nor any other Western government have ever brought charges in the Court against these monsters who continue to murder, torture, and imprison their opponents.
However, when the Court issued its arrest warrant for Prime Minister Netanyahu, former Defense Minister Gallant, and Mohammed Deif, a Hamas leader believed dead, it created a false moral equivalency between a democracy and an outlawed terrorist organization.
Trudeau’s announcement that Canada would arrest Netanyahu and Gallant if they ever arrived in Canada has solidified his government’s acceptance of this travesty and has further increased the threats to the security of Canadians across the country.
This is the same Trudeau who has allowed thousands of Gazans to migrate to Canada with little or no vetting, since the only police that could ever vet Gazans is run by Hamas, and they would be pleased to allow fifth columns to migrate to Canada unimpeded.
Trudeau has now shown his true colors, and his statements underscore government support for the Islamofascists who have taken over the streets and universities of Canada’s major cities, and have occupied government institutions.
Canadian federal, provincial and municipal governments have allowed them free reign to ply their hatred with few limits.
There is an almost symbiotic relationship between Islamist terrorists and many in the left of center Western political classes.
The Canadian left has been coopted by these Islamic terrorists to the point where Green Party leader Elizabeth May has said that she takes her marching orders from the Palestinian representative to Canada.
The police have refused to apply the law and arrest those who preach hatred or attack innocent Canadians – Jews and gentiles alike.
Please don’t tell me that this is aimed at justice for Palestinians when their chants call for global intifada and the imposition of sharia law everywhere.
The Trudeau government, backed by the NDP, has continued funding UNRWA despite ample proof that the organization’s officials work directly with Hamas and Hezbollah in carrying out terrorist attacks.
The same Canadian government continues to support the United Nations Force in Lebanon even though UNIFIL has allowed Hezbollah terrorists to occupy the border region between Israel and Lebanon, build up reserved of missiles and men in the territory UNIFIL is supposed to control, and work closely with the terrorist group to weaken Lebanese control over its own territory and pose a constant danger to Israel.
The proof is there, and it has been made public over the past few years.
U.N. Watch is now distributing documentation that proves beyond a doubt that UNRWA and UNIFIL are in bed with Hamas and Hezbollah.
Yet the U.N. and member states like Canada continue to ignore it.
Israel continues to be a pariah state while the butchers of Damascus, Teheran, and Turkey remain leaders in good standing.
And now, Mr. Erdogan, president of a NATO member state and ally of Canada, has welcomed the Hamas senior command to live and operate freely in Turkey after being expelled from Qatar.
Given Erdogan’s repeated threats to invade Israel and now with his Islamist allies working from his capital, one wonders if the Trudeau government will have anything to say about this unholy alliance and the threats that is poses for Western security.
Will Canada demand that Turkey be expelled from the Alliance in response to its embrace of its own terrorism and its support for Hamas, or will the Trudeau government maintain its radio silence?
The war against Islamist terrorism is real and is being waged across Canada and around the world.
Islamism is wreaking havoc across Africa and is responsible for the deaths of tens of thousands of deaths and millions of displaced people everywhere from Nigeria across the Sahel to Sudan and abroad.
In Bangladesh, Islamists have unleashed their violence against the Hindu minority with nary a peep from the Western protesters who march constantly against Israel.
The truth is not always politically correct.
But it is the truth.
I would welcome anyone who disputes what I have written with provable facts.
I am all ears!
Respectfully disagree that Islamofascism is threatening western democracy and culture in many countries. The large and sometimes rhetorically aggressive demonstrations stem from the Israeli genocidal war in Gaza purifier by some as stemming from the Hamas attack of Oct 7 in which there was possible Israeli failure of intelligence or even complicity including in the killing of Israeli citizens by Hannibalbdoctrine. These are not in themselves anti semitic or anti western and woulld cease with a 2 state solution.. On the other hand there has been active understandable and expanding Muslim civil society and political action to advance Muslim interests in public policy and education which do not harm western democracy and culture. Think therefore that your thesis is overblown and unsupported.
I think it's time to expel the kids from their playground and bring in AI. If it can out-diagnose doctors, it for sure can out-govern a bunch of overgrown kids pretending to be our parents-who-know-better. I don't want to be governed by those people. Let the kids write the program...they're going to have to live with it: Greta and all the others who prove their decency, wisdom, compassion and selflessness every day.
