What he means is that, given the political and social problems in Israel, the death penalty is likely to be imposed in an anti-Arab, anti-Muslim manner.

That's putting it politely.
And the fact that it was brought in by bona-fide racist terrorist Kahanists who hate him as much as the Arabs, blacks and brown people.

Killing a Goyim isn't a crime in the eyes of the JKK.

Kahanism (pronounced [/ka.haˈnizm/]; Hebrew: כַּהַנִּיזְם) is a religious Zionist ideology based on the views of Rabbi Meir Kahane, founder of the Jewish Defense League and the Kach (pronounced [/kax/]; כך, 'Thus') political party in Israel. Kahane believed that most Arabs living in Israel are the enemies of Jews and Israel itself, and that a Jewish, Halakhic state, in which non-Jews (Goyim) would have no voting rights, should be created.


Flag of Kach, used by Kahanists
The Kach party has been banned by the Israeli government. In 2004, the United States Department of State designated it a Foreign Terrorist Organization. In 2022, it was removed from the US terror blacklist due to "insufficient evidence" of the group's ongoing activity, but it remains a Specially Designated Global Terrorist entity.

The Kahanist Otzma Yehudit (Jew Power) party won six seats in the 2022 Israeli legislative election and is a member of the thirty-seventh government of Israel, save for a withdrawal between 21 January and 19 March 2025 because the government had agreed to the January 2025 ceasefire in the Gaza war. The party, and the Kahanist movement as a whole, have been described as espousing Jewish supremacy and fascism.

The union representing the province’s public-sector workers said Ontario president Fred Hahn had been placed on leave while a complaint against him from a co-worker was being investigated.


Canadian Union of Public Employees spokesperson Mary Unan confirmed Monday night what was heavy chatter amongst union membership starting on Sunday. Unan said an “independent investigation — supported by CUPE Ontario president Fred Hahn — is currently underway into workplace climate allegations made by a CUPE Ontario staff member.”


She added that “CUPE Ontario at all times seeks to ensure a safe workplace for all staff” and that Hahn was on paid leave, “something that is a routine procedural step and is not a disciplinary measure.

“Fred remains president of CUPE Ontario,” Unan added.

CUPE says its Ontario president Fred Hahn is on paid leave until a complaint from a co-worker is investigated.

Issue described as ‘internal matter’
A memo sent to members Monday evening called the issue an “internal matter,” but said “as an employer, CUPE Ontario takes all its matters of employee relations seriously.

“After receiving an employee complaint regarding work climate, the CUPE Ontario executive board passed a motion last week to retain a third-party investigator to assess the situation and make recommendations,” the memo said, adding the motion passed unanimously with the support of Hahn.


Elected as president in 2010, Hahn is the longest serving president in CUPE history. He has announced he will not seek re-election at the union’s annual meeting starting May 27.


Nature of complaint unclear
It was unclear if the investigation will be completed before Hahn’s term runs out. But it means he is not be running the union at this time.

“Fred will step away on paid leave for the duration of the investigation,” said the memo, adding “this is a routine procedural step consistent with sound employer practice and is not a disciplinary measure.”

It was unclear what the nature of the complaint was and CUPE said it “will not be providing further comment on the specifics of the matter.” They stressed that “Fred continues to serve as president of Ontario and we thank members and locals for their understanding and discretion.”

The complaint had not been tested by the CUPE process and there was no indication either that police were involved in any way. But this is a major development since CUPE represents more than 300,000 workers in Ontario.

Anti-Israel comments have sparked backlash
Hahn has courted controversy for a long time for his strong stance on Palestinian causes and has routinely attended protests against Israel, while saying that “genocide” was unfolding in Gaza.

Facing major backlash from the Jewish community, dozens of Jewish members within CUPE and Ontario Premier Doug Ford, Hahn apologized for a video he posted to social media that depicts an Olympic diver sporting the Star of David on his arm before turning into a bomb as he hits the water.

“My intent was never to associate Jewish people with the violence enacted by the state of Israel,” Hahn said at the time. “It remains my strongly held view that it is a terrible mistake and antisemitic to conflate abhorrent actions by the state of Israel with Jewish humanity or identity.

“My intention in posting it was to call attention to the reality that while the Russian Federation was barred from participating at the Paris Olympics, the state of Israel was permitted to participate — which appeared clearly to me to be a double standard.”

Well, as a new flotilla sails for Gaza, the tactics of a previous voyage – from pre-recorded videos to rejected aid routes – provide a clear indication of the media confrontation to come.
View attachment 31425
The true objective of the flotilla currently steaming towards the Mediterranean coast appears to be less about breaking Israel's naval blockade of Gaza and more about generating a viral firestorm of outrage.
View attachment 31426Its ‘mission’ seems set to create imagery and messaging that will be shared hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of times, all reinforcing a single, damaging narrative.
View attachment 31427
The current voyage has already been marked by high-level diplomatic intervention. On Tuesday, Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni publicly called on the flotilla to stop, stating that a confrontation could provide a 'pretext' to disrupt a 'fragile balance,' as Hamas reviews Trump's 20-point Gaza peace plan.
View attachment 31428Following her statement, the flotilla reported that the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs offered participants an 'opportunity' to abandon the vessel. The organizers rejected the offer, labeling it 'sabotage' in a public post. This rejection of a diplomatic off-ramp is not without precedent. The voyage of the Madleen in June offers a blueprint to understand the playbook for this campaign.
View attachment 31431
The conclusion of that prior voyage illustrated a key tactic: the narrative was locked in before the first Israeli vessel ever made contact. Hours before its interception, pre-recorded videos of activist Greta Thunberg and others declaring they were being 'kidnapped' were ready to go. This gave the activists the ability to seize control of the story, ready to flood the digital space before facts on the water could interfere.

…& that’s EXACTLY how this last one played out regardless of what was to actually happen. It was a script written in advance.

As the interception began, a coordinated social media blast released the videos, amplified by a torrent of posts and shares. The messaging was uniform, asserting that Israel was 'kidnapping' activists who came to 'challenge the blockade,' as members of the Freedom Flotilla Coalition described.
View attachment 31429
Next, claims of Israeli aggression escalated. Activists broadcast that they were attacked with a 'chemical substance' after Israeli forces deployed a standard, non-lethal crowd-control irritant via drones.
View attachment 31430
Medical exams in Ashdod later confirmed all passengers were unharmed, but the activists' initial claim achieved wide circulation online, arguably eclipsing Israel's official response.

At the same time, reports emerged that the activists had thrown their phones overboard – a move that prevented Israeli authorities from accessing the devices' data and created an information vacuum the activists could fill.🤔

The mission’s humanitarian element was described as 'symbolic,' as the BBC noted in its reporting. The vessel’s cargo was, in the words of government spokesman David Mencer, 'less than a single truckload.' In the two weeks prior, 1,200 actual aid trucks had entered Gaza by land.

When Israeli authorities offered the flotilla the option to dock at Ashdod and have their aid transferred overland –the only viable path for its actual delivery – they refused.
View attachment 31432
The confrontation, it seems, was the objective.

By rejecting a practical solution, the activists manufactured the scenario required for their media campaign: Israeli forces preventing the delivery of 'aid' to Gaza. These actions ultimately lent credence to the Israeli Foreign Ministry’s assessment of the voyage as 'Instagram activism.'
View attachment 31433
It’s hard to tell, but what does that banner above the boats name say? Something about the peace plan? Give peace a chance?
View attachment 31434
(I don’t know much about Ocean going vessels because I’m in the middle of the continent on the Canadian prairies, but I’m assuming we can tell that that’s a cargo carrier because of all the big square windows? Carry the least amount of people with the smallest crew so you can fit the most cargo on board, right?)
Hmmm…guess there was another another one.

Oh it is. Why is Israel so important to you? You had a chance to save it but chose to back the radical racist and fascist elements that are turning the world against them.

So why is Israel attacking Christians?

Why is Israel important to you?
Israel is the only country in the region that is more or less democratic and not controlled by terrorist organizations. Also Jews were there long before islam was invented.

Israel was created by terrorism. If democracy is the issue why didnt secular Zionists stay in Democratic Europe, Canada Argentina, Brazil, Mexico and US?

Why are they attacking Christians?

White Jews were there?

Why are they attacking Christians?

Who were the Bolsheviks that murdered 10,000,000 Christians?

Since day fucking 1. That's when.

Do you know anything about the history of Zionist Israel?
Was Israel founded by terrorism?

Yes, elements of the Jewish independence movement in Mandatory Palestine employed terrorism as part of their campaign against British rule and Arab opposition, and those groups contributed directly to the military and political foundations of the State of Israel.

However, framing the entire founding of Israel as "by terrorism" is a simplification that ignores broader historical context, including Jewish immigration, diplomacy, defensive needs, Arab rejection of compromise, and conventional warfare.98d63a

Historical Background
After World War I, Britain administered Palestine under a League of Nations Mandate that included the 1917 Balfour Declaration's support for a "national home for the Jewish people" alongside protections for non-Jewish communities.

Jewish immigration (Aliyah) increased, especially fleeing European antisemitism and the Holocaust, leading to tensions and violence with Arab populations who opposed Jewish statehood. Arab riots in the 1920s and the 1936–1939 revolt targeted Jews, prompting Jewish self-defense organizations.

The main Jewish paramilitary groups were:

Haganah: The largest, mainstream group tied to the Jewish Agency and labor Zionism. It focused on defense of settlements (havlaga policy of restraint initially) but later conducted sabotage and offensive operations against the British. It formed the core of the future Israel Defense Forces (IDF).89c011

Irgun (Etzel): A Revisionist Zionist splinter from Haganah (led by Menachem Begin later). Today known as Likud, It embraced "active" retaliation and political violence against British and Arab targets.5c1cf4

Lehi (Stern Gang): An extreme splinter from Irgun, which saw Britain as the main enemy even during WWII and conducted assassinations.

These groups operated in a period of insurgency (Jewish Revolt, 1944–1948) as Britain restricted Jewish immigration post-Holocaust.

Notable Terrorist Acts


Several actions fit standard definitions of terrorism: politically motivated violence deliberately targeting civilians or non-combatants to instill fear and achieve political ends (e.g., forcing British withdrawal).475fc4

King David Hotel bombing (1946): Irgun (with initial Haganah approval) bombed the British administrative HQ in Jerusalem, killing 91 (Britons, Arabs, Jews). Warnings were reportedly issued but ignored or ineffective. It was the deadliest single attack on the British.c88d32

Deir Yassin massacre (April 1948): Irgun and Lehi attacked a village near Jerusalem, killing over 100 Arab civilians (estimates vary). This was part of fighting in the civil war phase and contributed to panic and flight among Palestinians. Haganah condemned it publicly but the event had propaganda value.c17853

Other attacks included market bombings, assassinations (e.g., of British officials and later UN mediator Folke Bernadotte by Lehi), and village raids aimed at expulsion or deterrence.

British authorities, the Jewish Agency (at times), and others labeled Irgun and Lehi as terrorist organizations. These tactics eroded British will to maintain the Mandate amid post-WWII exhaustion, contributing to their decision to withdraw.3918b7

Broader Context of Israel's Founding
UN Partition Plan (1947): The UN proposed dividing Palestine into Jewish and Arab states (with Jerusalem internationalized). Jews accepted (despite the plan giving them a state with a large Arab minority and fragmented territory). Arab leaders and the Arab Higher Committee rejected it outright, refusing any Jewish sovereignty, and launched attacks. Civil war erupted immediately.fe6d76

Israel declared independence on May 14, 1948. Neighboring Arab states invaded the next day. Israel fought a defensive war of survival, winning and expanding beyond the UN lines. The result was the displacement of ~700,000 Palestinians (Nakba)—partly from fear, fighting, and expulsions by Jewish forces—and the flight/expulsion of Jews from Arab countries.

Haganah (defensive roots) transitioned into the IDF. Irgun and Lehi were eventually disbanded/integrated (sometimes forcibly, e.g., Altalena Affair). Leaders like Begin (Irgun) and Ben-Gurion (Haganah) became prime ministers. Israel was recognized internationally.

Terrorism was not the sole or primary method: Jewish state-building involved legal immigration, land purchase, institution-building (kibbutzim, Hebrew University), diplomacy, and conventional military success against invading armies. Many Jews viewed their actions as legitimate resistance to colonial restrictions and existential threats after the Holocaust. Arab violence against Jews (pogroms, riots) predated major Jewish militancy.

Nuance on "Founded by Terrorism"
Yes aspect: Irgun/Lehi terrorism helped pressure Britain out and terrorized Arab populations into flight in some areas. Former militants shaped early Israeli politics and security culture.2a772c

No/over-simplification: Most founding energy was not terrorism. The state emerged from a UN vote, war of independence, and nation-building amid mutual rejection and violence. Labeling it solely "founded by terrorism" often serves to delegitimize Israel while downplaying parallel Arab violence, rejectionism, and later Palestinian terrorism (e.g., fedayeen, hijackings, intifadas, Hamas). All sides have used violence; "terrorism" is a contested label often applied selectively.cbd387
