Why can our politicians never condemn antisemitism without adding ‘all forms of hate’ too?

You you made a tweet today that was so uh it said so much in so few words let me show it on the screen you said Can someone please explain how condemning quote all forms of hate is any different from saying quote all lives matter and

That might not ring a bell for folks who are unfamiliar with the black lives matter movement black lives matter which really got some steam after some African-Americans were were killed in altercations with police George Floyd for example and the black community or at least a part of the community would

Would cry out and say this is this is anti-black racism or people are hurting this is wounding this is racism and and we can argue details over cases like George Floyd but but what they wanted is for people to say yes uh we understand your pain as the black community and

You know a lot of people including on the right which they look all lives matter but I know that some people who were grieving a particular instance that they thought was racist that said there’s a crisis right now involving a black man who was just killed and you’re

Telling me no no no everything counts the same I just need you to say for one second the black livesound that was the argument and here and and by the way Justin Trudeau went out in the middle of the pandemic and took a knee on Parliament Hill breaking the anti-

Gathering rules he was so dedicated to the black lives matter movement even though it was an American movement in every way and so now you have a synagogue being a firebomb thrown into a synagogue in Montreal you have Jewish restaurants being you know Nazi style boycotts you have chance for death to

The Jews and Trudeau and all the others cannot say anti-Semitism is wrong period they just always append and islamophobia too and all forms of racism they just can’t say it and and I think it’s to dilute and diminish what’s going on and and there was a there was a Jewish protester for

Israel who was murdered in Los Angeles yesterday he was killed and and we just you know I and I don’t want any Muslims in North America killed I don’t want Muslim business to be boycotted I don’t want Muslim schools to be targeted as Jewish schools have been targeted but

There’s some something really creepy about political leaders Justin Trudeau is amongst the worst who will not say I’m against anti-Semitism period when they’re asked about a synagogue being torched why are they tacking on the islamophobia part other than to water down and remove the truth of what we have had a torrent of

Anti-Semitism over the last month and I think there’s something creepy about politicians who won’t acknowledge that I don’t know maybe I’m being too sensitive no I I I think you’re right it’s almost become like comical to to see it it’s like we’re seeing an unprecedented level of harassment and

Targeting of Jewish people in Canada and the United States and it’s not just Trudeau it’s it’s it’s liberal politicians across the board because we saw the same thing from Joe Biden and his PR press secretary uh where they immediately went to jumping into uh condemning islamophobia it’s like you

Know you you you gave a pretty nuanced description of the all lives matter black lives matter uh debate and you know a lot of people just said of course a statement all lives matter is true we all matter and let’s figure out a way to you know live together and and make our

Society more peaceful and for the black lives matter activists they wanted people to recognize that they were feeling attacked and they wanted the slogan black lives matter they didn’t want it to be co-opted and I you know agree with it or disagree with it that was their point and not only that Ezra

But there were a thousand think pieces telling us that it was wrong uh to say White lives matter that that that was racist that that was inflating uh too many issues and that it was important just to focus on the black lives matter movement okay so why doesn’t that same

Logic apply that that was that was the point of that twe why doesn’t the same logic apply when you see when you see Jewish business owners getting targeted for the sin of being Jewish or being from Israel uh when you see exactly your point a man in Los Angeles killed

Because he was waving an Israeli flag I mean this is serious level uh of islamophobia or sorry of of anti-Semitism and I I just don’t see that I against Muslims maybe maybe it’s there maybe I’m just you know missing it uh maybe there’s a lot of hatred online

Although I’m sure you’ve been the victim of of uh unknown uh you know attacks and smears online I know uh Gad sad who’s a Canadian University Professor uh from Lebanon who’s Jewish he he’s been sharing a lot of the hate that he’s receiving it’s pretty gruesome and

Horrific the kinds of stuff that’s being sent to him so anyway it’s like why can’t leaders just have some moral Clarity why can’t they just say look we’re dealing with a surge in anti-Semitism that’s nothing like we have seen in this country in recent memory uh let’s all work together to

Address that and stop that instead they I think it has to do with with pandering and votes and making sure that they’re not alienating uh the people that they know will vote for them but uh it’s it’s it’s it’s it’s disappointing Ezra and I think that at this moment in time in

Canada it’s important for leaders to specifically name the problem to to to to discuss what it is that we’re facing and in this moment in time um there’s no doubt that anti-Semitism is I think the biggest problem in Canada right Now
