Sun Editor-in-Chief Adrienne Batra talks with political columnists Brian Lilley and Warren Kinsella on the media coverage following the rescue of four Israeli hostages from Hamas.
A long long ago I was on patrol on Spadina Ave. I fell off my Toronto p.d. motorcycle and landed between the street car tracks. Out of nowhere came a little tailor- his arms full of suits. He was a wonderful Jewish man and he picked me up and attended to my hurts. Blessed are are those who call upon the NAME of the LORD.
❤❤Blessed little memories that stay forever ..someone reaching out their hand in the wilderness to pick you up out of a dark moment ❤❤ Bless that man Bless his family Bless his freinds, Bless his community
The jew will always be the first to hand their hand to everyone, but the last to be reached. We care fir the world, but the world do not care for us. Its heartbreaking for us to see what the world is becoming, we warned everyone for decades and no one listened. Sadly now the jihad is everywhere. Hope its not too late for the world.
I'm a Christian Canadian - and I am appalled by what is happening to our Jewish communities, I cannot believe how quickly the Western world has descended into the worst kind of nazi-ism
Just look at a few videos of what is going on in Gaza, before 7 October and after, and you will understand who are the nazis there. From the Tantura and Deir Yasin massacres in 1948 to actual Gaza destruction and mass children killing, not to forget the murders of hundreds of Palestinians in the West Bank this year, it has been a continuous process of moral decay for israël, supported by a strong paranoid, racist and hateful propaganda.
Thanks so much for giving a voice to so many Canadians who are ashamed and disgusted by our spineless (bigoted?) "leaders" and the garbage supporters of the Pro-Palestine/Hamas terrorists. How can we expect more when our own Government is facing a report citing traitors within???
I wrote PM to say God told the prophets this is the start of a planned Insurrection and an Islamic take over! They better be serious about having had enough, and God said Canadian's need to start repenting or we will see a side of God we never saw before in our life time.
So many of us feel the same way about or country the US. Shocked at the way our administration flip flopped with Israel and worse…the tolerance of student protesters and antisemitism. Shocking!
The Toronto Star is so far left leaning the CN Tower is starting lean like the Leaning Tower of Pisa, all based on medieval methodology of the Liberal Party. Thank you Adrienne, Warren and Brian for reporting this - you folks are indeed the salt of the earth.
You don’t have to think too hard about it. The evidence is and has been there, every time a clash has taken place. Hamas hides among civilians to use them as shields and that’s exactly what happens.
Thank you so much the sun for being there for the Jewish people of Canada 🇨🇦 we love the Canadian culture and good people my God bless you all for supporting the truth ❤️
Thank you for this. In Alberta I am ashamed of our governments also. I used to follow Mahyar Toursi. He said his Mom told him to be thankful to Britain. Also accept the country and it's traditions.
Morality and wisdom are deteriorating. Yet, it feels good to read the comments and see there are still hundreds of people who feel, and understand what it means to be humane, dignified, and sensible. I am for Israel.
And Olivia Chow does not care, does she? If you are not against HAMAS, when you are ignorant - you are with HAMAS. So, the Toronto mayor is a HAMAS supporter.
A big part of the problem is the antisemites in power in the universities. I literally had the head librarian at Western start to tell me that “we can argue about whether HITLER was an antisemite or not…”
I can't believe the world watches and hears numerous accounts of Hamas brutality, yet the blame falls squarely on the shoulders if the Jewish community. Has the world gone mad!?
Hmmm interesting because when I commented on The TO Sun's video with Ford calling out the hatred of Jews with Trudeau and Chow on either side of him I commented, verbatim, "Easy to say now do something about it." My comment was immediately deleted.
Yes they should stop using the words antisemitic and 'protestors' because it is not protest or merely antisemitic .It is world domination in action by one group .Business as usual.
It's an islamist war, not an Islamic war. It's not religious, it's extremism/terrorism. Religion has nothing to do with it otherwise nearly 30% of Isreal population wouldn't be Muslim. Islam sprouted from Judaism just like Christianity. Islam has all the same "prophets" as Judaism. This literally has absolutely nothing to do with religion. It's about corrupt people who are hungry for power who get off of terrorizing and oppressing the innocent. Hamas is not a religious cause, it's a terrorist organization. Most Muslim nations won't allow any Palestinians in their countries, because islamist ideology goes completely against Islamic ideology. Islam is against oppression if the innocent. Against terrorism, against all the acts of horror in which Hamas conducts. THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH RELIGION!
Thank you for standing with Jewish community! The walk with Israel was an incredible event. Never saw such crowd of people through 40 years of attending this event. Everybody was polite, smiling, singing , dancing. It gave me hope that maybe, maybe things will normalise for us Jews of Canada. People were so thankful to police . Thank you Toronto, Hamilton, Durham region, Niagara region, York region ,OPP police services for keeping us safe. My question was exactly like yours, where is media, where politicians? Love your channel and grateful for truthful coverage.
Is Red Crescent feeding the supposed "refugees"? Nope....Hamas is a terror group, supported by Palestinians...I personally, won't tolerate it in my community. We all need to push back HARD.
Israel (and a few) news agencies have been reporting and warning the world about this but no one cared. To anyone who will listen, it was obvious that Hamas was stealing its own people blind. Well, this is the result. Let's hope and pray it is NOT too late.
Even so I did not support the truckers and felt that Ottawa citizen were being held hostage , unfortunately, I agree Trudope government is biased , it is supporting a minority of Palestinian Islamist pro-hamas brainwashed idiots who behaved like terrorists.!!!
I am not Jewish but I and many others pray for this horror to end ( pleeease sooon!!) these are the actions of people with severe personality deficits, arrogance, ignorance. Indoctrinated learning by fear. They even applied this to the hostages to try to tell them their families did not care and the IDF wanted to kill them. G-D protect Israel and ALL Jewish people at this time. I loved the quote of Scooter Braun..There has always been antisemitism...The difference is NOW WE'RE NOT AFRAID. Rise up within you Everyone of you stay powerful and strong. KNOW G-D, know thyself KNOW G-D needs you to be strong and gentle. We love you ISRAEL❤❤❤ this sickness on the planet is just that...a psychological equivalent to the Covid. Just KNOW this too shall pass STAY STRONG ISRAEL ❤❤
Trudeau is absolutely pathetic. What leader of a country allows this to happen to his innocent tax paying people. I agree the haters should be shipped out. Trudeau is welcome to go along with them since he obviously loves them so much.! 😡
Those who don't agree need to go - not. Have you signed up for the mark on your forehead that reveals your position in what is supposed to be a democracy? It's not.
Awesome lady 👍👏👏👍 An American who loves ❤to hear the incredible Canadian Patriots speak. My father of Blessed Memories was born in Spirit River Alberta. I would move to Canada 🍁. But being a free person has somehow disappeared.😢
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau should 'repent,' half-brother says NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh Waiting on gold plated 30 silver coins. Like Judas !! Let’s put the liberals & NDP In the rear view mirror. Let’s vote ☑️for 🤗 Poilievre
As a Jewish person, I don't want to be part of this world. I just don't. I'm so horribly disgusted by the world's media. Abandoned is an understatement. Betrayed is an understatement. Hated is even an understatement. What a painful disappointment. Day after day. Holding on to life so hard these days, and want to never ever step foot outside Israel. What a horrible world we're living in.
Please stay strong. We Christians around the world are praying for u all Jews. I live in an Islamic govt run country and am a minority. As minority we understand wats its like to be treated as unwanted ppl. I stand with Israel and support Israel. Everyday I write in Quora and share my comments abt pro hamas ppl. Hamas and their supporters are just evil ppl. Tbey dont hv any morals watsoever. God is their ultimate judge.
There is no anti-semitism in Islam. Islam sprouted from Judaism. From Adam and Eve to Noah, Abraham and Moses. All are considered prophets in the Quran. Mohammed, the founder of Islam, father was a Christian and mother was a Jew. Anti-semitism from anyone who is Muslim or Christian just shows ignorance. It's more of a cultural, historical problem.
I am a Canadian-Israeli living in Israel. Thank you for your honest, fair coverage. I am appalled to see the extreme bias against Israel in Western media. It is comforting to know that there are some sane voices with moral clarity.
Probably a pro palestine took the swastika to Ottawa durring the freedom convoy. Itwas not a freedom protesters thatcdid that. It should never have been exploited that way.😢
The most common explanation heard from those seen around the person with the swastika was that person intended it to mean that Trudeau was making this a nazi state. I seen Viva Frei and War Campaign ask many people about it and this is the common response I heard from those who claim to have actually approached the person who has the swastika. The person realized their mistake and put it away and protesters around didn't "bother him" after he had explained his reason. I hear many people talk about the "instigator" possibility but that is from people who say they never seem the flag, only pics or heard about it.
I am 60 years old and everything I have complained about in my time growing old is coming to a head. When I was young we in Canada were on a good path to stopping hate and discrimination. Unfortunately every fight to stop hate was always high jacked by an extreme answer to the problem. And if you said hey you’re going to far you were always claimed to be what you fought to end. So we always just let the extreme voices reign supreme. Well today I do not recognize Canada. And there is no where to just hide and live out my life, as the hate toward my gender and ethnicity is being blamed for everything wrong in the world. We now regret our good intentions. I believe I know when the tipping point was, but don’t dare say. And that’s the problem. Am I afraid to say the truth or just don’t want to hear the response from the uneducated youth and radicals.
Is there not anywhere that a person can email, write or something to try to get the goverment to start doing what they should already be doing, about the anti semitism happening here in our country, it is ludicrous that this is being allowed to go on. Maybe, with enough voices calling the out, something would happen.
Spot on👏👏👏👏. Not mentioning the fake numbers and identity of the "palestinian" casualties. "Hundreds" my ass. Thank God for the IDF and their corageouse rescue.
Perhaps Torontarians will be careful who they vote in to run the city and into our Parliament to run the country. With all those pouring into our country will be voting them right back in. Well don Toronto.
Thank you Toronto sun for telling the truth and standing up for the real victim here and that's the Jewish people. GOD ALMIGHTY YAHWEH 💖 AND MESSIAH KING YAHSHUA 💖🇮🇱🇺🇲🙏💯 please bless the IDF 💖 and HIS beautiful people Israel 💖 and their leaders who are fighting for them 💖 and the Jewish people around the world 💖🇮🇱🇺🇲💯 we love you and pray for your COMPLETE and TOTAL VICTORY over the evil Muslims enemies of mankind and the westen democracies .
Also important to note that most of the casualties seem to have come from the firefight that ensued AFTER the hostages had been rescued. Once they realized the IDF was there, hundreds of hamas fighters/locals began firing on them with rifles and RPGs in the packed city area of Nuseirat, and you will not see any itemizing from hamas that includes friendly fire. The bottom line is, if they wouldn't have started a massive firefight and just let the rescue team get out, there would have been very low casualties. I have family and friends in the IDF and I know exactly how hard they are working to minimize casualties, even as hamas does all it can to increase them.
Sorry. Maybe I missed the coverage of the 4 IDF soldiers who lost their lives during the hostage rescue? What a shame to lose 4 to save 4 IDF soldiers aa I have read all 4 of these particular hostages are in the IDF, correct?
I guess Canada has chosen what kind of country it wants to be, and what kind of citizens it wants, and who it wants to govern it. I doesn't look pretty (to me), but you know, good luck to the future Canadian chalifat.
Jews voted for these left wing politicians, supported left wing agendas and watch left wing media for years. Youre getting exactly what you asked for. And I say this as a Jew.
CBC is awful. So is Global, City, the toronto Star. Etc. its horrible. Its really one of the most disheartening aspects of all this. You just see new generations falling into hate based on the preponderance of hateful biased reporting. Its awful.
