I'm British and thoroughly ashamed of the antisemitism displayed around the U.K. No arrests yet disgusting rants from the marchers. British people get locked up for perceived non crime hate speech yet what these anti semites shout is definitely hate speech and encourages violence.

Have you attended any of the rallies and counter-protests in London? British patriots - Jews and non-Jews have been turning out in droves to protest this "two tier system of injustice". I've seen it on YouTube.

Great article. Spot on. If nothing is done those countries will see a decline of civilization. I foresee the death of the Ivy league schools here in the US.

We will always continue and prosper wherever we go.

On a smaller scale, in the 1920s, Jews were not allowed to buy a home in the Hancock Park area of Los Angeles. So the Jews started Beverly Hills.

I agree so strongly with what you say! As a British citizen I must say that I do not recognise my Country! We have crime that is out of control, Leaders that are not leaders in any shape or form! Anti Semitism has exploded and under the dreadful Starmer has grown and grown! Corruption is running through this Labour Government. They have no standards and no morals. We feel total despair and desperation! The only important issue, to Starmer, is ethnic minorities. The majority, count for nothing! Israel I have always been your friend. There are so many people in Britain that are also your friend! We feel your pain and identify with you. We will never know your agony but we will support you always.

Antisemitism isn’t official state policy in Canada, Australia and the UK. However, their governments’ failure to take action constitutes de facto governmental antisemitism. Once the governments have adopted antisemitism as policy, de jure or de facto, the countries’ decline and descent into chaos and violence is assured. In other words, things will get a lot worse before they get better (if they get better).

There’s more Muslims than Jews in Canada now. Politicians just appeal to their constituents. Muslims should never have been allowed in.

I'm Canadian. Trudeau's Conservative opponent, Pierre Poilievre, is gaining a lot of traction and he's come out strongly pro-Israel and against anti-Semitism. Let's see how things progress....

These countries are all part of the Caliphate, they just don't know it yet. Once your land is considered Muslim, it will be in perpetuity.

Yes, that's how the Islamists see it. But we don't and we won't let them have their way.

Great article Nachum. The mainstream media doesn't report it, but in the UK Jewish Brits have allied with other British patriots to protest the injustice of what they call a "two tier system" that favors the woke hegemony of Islamists and the far Left. On YouTube I have watched thousands of these brave souls show up at pro-Palestinian hate rallies bearing the Union Jack and the Israeli flag. Unlike the anti-Semitic, pro-Palestinian bunch, these counter-protestors are peaceful and law-abiding. They don't screech vile, murderous rhetoric like the Pally-lovers do. And the police are arresting - or threatening to arrest THEM while they give the hatemongers free reign.

It's disturbing. Yet worth cheering. Because it shows the War for the West has begun.

Slowly, the countries ravaged by anti-Semitism are waking up from their slumber. They are coming to realize that anti-Semitism; hate and fear of Israel are part and parcel of the “wokeness” that grips their societies. Wokeness that lets Islamic “grooming gangs” rape white women. Wokeness that turns white males into second class citizens through DEI (Diversity, Equity, Inclusion) programs in workplaces, academia and social spaces. Wokeness that allows men who call themselves women into women’s bathrooms, into women’s sports and into children’s classrooms to create dangerous confusion about gender.

And that’s just part of it. Countries wallowing in wokeness are falling apart economically. They are over-taxed; over-regulated and crumbling from the sheer weight of importing way more immigrants than they can handle.

Many Westerners who rightly hate wokeness think Trump will be their savior. That his threats to impose tariffs and maybe even to defund Nato will straighten things out. But Trump alone can’t save them. Freedom must be earned. Hopefully, the citizens of Western societies will rise up, as the Brits are doing, to take their freedom back. Maybe they will be smart enough to include their Jewish citizens in this fight – if any of us are willing to stick it out to help them.

It’s not quite right to say that Canada, Australia and the UK have not assimilated their Muslims. Muslims won’t assimilate period. They should never have been allowed in.

This proves that nations do not pick their leaders from a brain pool, but by their looks, or their own personal wealth, or offspring of former leaders- for their name. I wonder what country did that? I know because I live in that country. Here is a man who will stand and say, "Antisemitism doesn't belong in Canada", but does absolutely nothing to stop it. No direction to the Mounties, Provinicial Police or local constabulary. This particular man has ever visited Israel, during the early days after October 7, never visited a synagogue, and long with the NDP leader agrees that the ICC has every right to accuse Israel of attempted genocide of Arabs. It took him at least two full days or more to talk about October 7, and his speech said NOTHING. He even has a difficult time saying these words, Jew, Jewish, Israel. But he will fly from Ottawa to our airport to give new winter outfits to Syrian Refugees who landed well dressed for a Canadian winter, cell phones in hand. He opened the door to Gazans, but thankfully, the logistics from paper work to arranging flights have slowed that down. We have enough Islamists here who danced on the streets on October 7, and celebrated anew on first anniversary of the massacres. Fortunately, the celebration the Hamas leader, Sinwar, was cancelled, but the mayor of that community had already given permission for it to go ahead, and she was openly offended to learn that is was cancelled for safety reasons. The colleges and universities have lost millions of dollars from Jewish, and Jewish supporters who are alumni. Harvard is over 40% poorer. And our government and the American government have yet to stop the financial input from Iran, etc. They are digging their own graves and certainly for the rest of us. Obama may have given Israel funds with one hand, but he also gave even more to Iran for the nuclear development. How stupid can one be. He has two daughters, and he is black and Jihadists are ready and waiting for the two girls and Michelle. I wrote a letter to Justin Trudeau that should have a hijab ready for his daughter to protect her from possible rape and/of abduction. But he only cares about votes, and there are probably double the number of Jews who traditionally vote Liberal, but I think those days are ove. Pretty Boy Trudeau in my personal opinion is ugly, at least his soul is.

He’ll lose the next election but the change to Canada’s demographics (lots more Muslims) is permanent.

It’s important to remember that the Nazis didn’t direct the burning of Jewish books. That was done on the initiative of the students themselves. The Nazis of course supported it, but it was indoctrinated youth who started it. ✡︎

Thank you Nachum for an excellent article. I am going to put something out here that I know about in the US. Why I know it and nothing has been written about it, I do not know. We have “The Canary Mission” going on here. I read about 3,000 people (Muslims) going to a meeting in NY. They have similar plans to take over here too in the US. I have written to journalists and politicians. Never a word back. We can see that Biden/Harris wanted their votes in Michigan and Wisconsin in our last election and how soft they went in supporting Israel. Where is everyone? Most Jews voted for Harris in our election. It is time to wake up and stop watching the made up headlines on CNN and MSNBC. Also, it is time for everyone to recognize the potential of the coming Trump administration.

Every time you look at your cellphone, remember the abject failure of Soviet microelectronics: initially started under Kruschev by two American leftists, the project was shut down when Brezhnev came to power because they were Jewish. Wonder what became of that industry??

It was a great piece. I would love to see some research on the roots of anti-semitism in Canada and the US, actually across the West. I know in Canada, statistically, the most anti-semitic group is Muslims, second university students and third, Francophones in Quebec. Canada has an ADL rating on antisemitism about 50% higher than the US. But the fact is that we are afraid and are almost not allowed to talk about immigration. If you bring in people from a country that has a 93% ADL AS rating, they will not change when they cross the border. And we are not seeing reduced antisemitism in the second and third generations. The greatest tool for the anti-semite is to condition society into such a roundup state that if we mention the word assimilation, we are instantly demonized, called racist (when it's not about a race, it's about a religion and an ethnic norm). I look at my situation, suspended for over a year for calling Hamas Nazis to a stranger in Pakistan. The viciousness of the institution is staggering; I am not exaggerating when I say they have treated me worse than they would have treated someone who was accused of sexual assault on campus. And the couple (one of them our vice provost) 's views are repugnant, calling Hamas noble warriors and outright calling for Israel's destruction and running down Jews in class - all of this was swept under the rug. I think that the VP is a hardcore anti-semite, but I think a lot of people are just cowards, and they are so afraid of being called racist that they self-censor. We will destroy our civilization with this suicidal sympathy and empathy.
