Bob Rae is the current Canadian Ambassador to the United Nations. He has been serving since 2020. He has stated in support of Canada’s break with its longstanding stance on Israel at the UN, in voting for a Gaza ceasefire, that there are “limits to how far people can be pushed.”
No one can deny the hellishness of war. There were some 40 million civilian deaths during World War II, the deadliest war in history. Among them were children. While Rae discusses the atrocities committed by Hamas on October 7, his focus is on the humanitarian crisis in Gaza — a crisis that was caused by Hamas. There is no mention by Ambassador Rae of the human shields used by Hamas, the Palestinian celebration of “martyrdom,” or the refusal of Muslim countries to take in Palestinian refugees. The collateral damage and consequences of this war are heaped on Israel’s back alone.
Israel’s war on Hamas is for its very survival as a Jewish state. The Canadian government refuses to acknowledge this. Hamas unequivocally states its intention to obliterate Israel in its written Covenant and proved with its barbarity on October 7 just how far it was and is willing to go in executing its plan.
One needs to consider the source when analyzing any situation. Ambassador Bob Rae has an extensive career history with the socialist-leaning New Democrat Party of Canada, which boasts of its “social democratic and democratic socialist traditions.” A decade ago, with an intent to “modernize,” the NDP voted “to take ‘socialism’ out of party constitution.” Rae was NDP premier of Ontario from 1990 to 1995, leader of the Ontario New Democratic Party from 1982 to 1996, and then went Liberal, serving as interim leader of the Liberal Party of Canada from 2011 to 2013. The NDP ran a so-called “peace” campaign calling upon Canada to “stop selling arms to Israel.” The publication Spring, “a magazine of socialist ideas in action,” published an article less than a month after the horrors of October 7, entitled “Mass movement for Palestinian solidarity forces NDP in the right direction.” The NDP is pro-Palestinian, and the Liberals have not been far off from such a stance. Trudeau’s appointment of Rae, a career NDPer, to serve as ambassador to the UN is telling. The Canadian Press now reports:
Canada voted in favour of a non-binding resolution at the United Nations on Tuesday that calls for “an immediate humanitarian ceasefire” between Israel and Hamas, in a move that broke with years of Canadian policy and shocked Jewish groups.
The vote at the UN General Assembly represents a shift in Canada’s long-standing position of siding with Israel on major resolutions at the international body and arguing the Jewish state is unfairly called out in global forums.The Liberals say the carnage in the Gaza Strip led Canada to change tack.
“We must recognize that what is unfolding before our eyes will only enhance the cycle of violence,” Foreign Affairs Minister Melanie Joly said Tuesday on Parliament Hill.
The decision of the Liberals to formally support the UN resolution for ceasefire follows upon a visit to Canada this week by Palestinian Authority Foreign Minister Riyad Al Maliki and Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan, who were on a mission to to “speak on behalf of Muslim people” and rally support for a ceasefire. Also in attendance was Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan. These representatives from the virulently antisemitic Palestinian Authority and Turkey, which seek to destroy Israel, were warmly embraced by Melanie Joly and Justin Trudeau. The visit was covered on Jihad Watch. An excerpt:
Merely ten days after Hamas’ barbaric attack on Israeli citizens, which Hamas calls Operation Al Aqsa Flood, the Palestinian Authority announced that it would “give Hamas terrorists’ families close to $3m in ‘pay-for-slay.’” “In the current pay-for-slay system, called the “Martyrs’ Fund” by the PA, terrorists receive monetary payments as a reward for acts of terror.” As for Turkey (a foremost global peddler of the “Islamophobia” subterfuge), its President Recep Tayyip Erdogan recently called Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu the “butcher of Gaza,” and demanded that he be tried as a “war criminal.” Erdogan also declared that Israel is a “terrorist state” and Hamas is a “political party.” Speaking at a pro-Hamas “Great Palestine Rally,” Erdogan threatened Israel: “We can come at any night unexpectedly”; while the massive crowd chanted “Turkish military to Gaza.” Erdogan has also called Hamas “a group of mujahideen fighting to protect their lands.” Well, Hamas did descend on Israeli citizens “unexpectedly,” and now Erdogan threatens Israel anew.
The National Post stated of the visit “Mélanie Joly embarrasses herself“ : “Her constantly shifting positions on Israel’s war with Hamas terrorists in Gaza are either evidence of her going rogue, being completely unaware of what the government’s policy is or that she really does think that the “ceasefire-now, Hamas are freedom fighters” faction of the left is the Liberals’ most important constituency.”
On November 16, the Canadian Press quoted Bob Rae as stating: “We consider it essential that the international community speak clearly in condemning this terrorism by Hamas,” The UN “rejected any push to call out ‘deliberate cruelty’ of Hamas attacks.” As Bob Rae represents the Liberal Government of Canada, he now states in defense of Canada’s decision to vote for a ceasefire at the UN that there are “limits to how far people can be pushed,” with reference to the Palestinians. Such words are more appropriate in reference to Israel, the world’s only Jewish state, which was violated in the worst way imaginable on October 7 and cannot risk such an attack or an even worse one happening again. The current Canadian government has drawn a line in the sand.
The writing has long been on the wall, as explained HERE. And in August 2022, an incident that disappeared quickly from media reports showed just how ‘tolerant’ the Trudeau government can sometimes be. Laith Marouf, a government-funded Muslim “anti-racism” representative, stated on X:
“Life is too short for shoes with laces, or for entertaining Jewish White Supremacists with anything but a bullet to the head.”
In another, he refers to so-called “Jewish White Supremacists” as “loud mouthed bags of human feces,” adding that if Palestine is “liberated,” they will “return to being low voiced b*tches of their Christian/Secular White Supremacist Masters.”
Despite the Liberals’ expression of regret after the embarrassment of having the incident blow wide open in media, it emerged that Canada’s Diversity Minister Ahmed Hussen was warned about Marouf’s anti-Semitic tweets before the news broke. Robert Spencer stated only a day before the report: “Laith Marouf has been seething with open hatred for Jews and others for years. If the Trudeau government only just found this out, it’s criminally negligent. If it knew all along and didn’t care until there was a public furor, it’s something worse than that.”
In 2019, Canada not only broke ranks with tradition to support Palestinian interests at the UN, but it went on to install an “Islamophobia Czar” who served as communications director for the National Council of Canadian Muslims (NCCM), formerly CAIR-CAN — an offshoot of the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR).
There is a history and consistency with the Canadian government, amid its obscene moral equivalence about caring for both Palestinians and Israelis. This week’s welcome of Palestinian Authority and Turkish leaders to “speak on behalf of ‘Muslim people” is more of the same. In light of all that, Canada’s vote is no surprise.
Yes there are limits how far the terrorists can be pushed. That limit is very well defined. They must be pushed into extinction. There’s no other way around it.
The UN should be pushed to the limits of extinction.
Those smug faces need to be held accountable.
It will be interesting (as in “interesting times”) to see what will happen if the UN actually DOES force a vote that Israel, (note – NOT HAMAS), must cease fire. And if Israel, whose LIFE is hanging on the results of the war, disobeys and carries on? Er – just exactly WHO is going to try to enforce such a diktat?
It continues to puzzle me how we in the west allow dictators, murderers and gangsters who brutally rule their own people in most countries of the world, to have influence and to give them a voice at the so-called “United” Nations. Why on earth would we do that? Do we have a death wish? That we in the west often go along with the votes that are nothing but insitutionalized envy and hatred is nothing short of astonishing.
On a point related to this story about Canada, the blatantly evil socialists of the New Democratic Party (NDP) may as well fold into the Liberal Party under Justin Trudeau who uses the NDP for power and control and to polish his own sordid image at the expense of the hapless, misguided, weak and brainless NDP. Both parties in this disgusting alliance of evil merely pretend to be different from each other. They are identical. Trudeau has never had to struggle to pay his mortgage, worry about putting food on the table, gas in his car or about whether he can afford new shoes for his kids, and it shows in everything he says and does. His stupid socialist/WEF/neo-fascism doesn’t address such issues in the real lives of Canadians, issues of survival for Canadians that his own policies create. The great disappointment is that he lacks the intelligence to understand his mistakes, or that he is a slave of his own narcissism. He forces us downwards on the road to hell.
History lesson: The true north strong and free.
Trudeau will be gone soon, he doesn’t represent all Canadian, he ignores the danger the put us in, when Islam sets foot in a country they claim it as their own, Hamas and all other Islamic terrorists, their Armies, true Canadians cannot let that happen!
That is wishful thinking but the reality is that both the NDP and Trudys friends across the
Pacific ocean whom he has openly declared that he admires so much will be ensuring that Trudy is not going to be leaving anytime soon. It will come as no surprise to many who understand how an authoritarian government works when elections are suspended in Canada. But as a safety harness, Trudy is also very busy importing in as many of those sponges from 3 rd countries as s/he can and they will vote for clown that provides all the freebies they want. All Trudy has to do is dangle the cheque book and those morons will vote for the Lieberals. Trudy has made it abundantly clear what he thinks of Canadians (especially white, Anglo, Christians) by publically declaring them as racists and genociders. If ever there was a traitor and fraudulent criminal to the citizens of Canada it is both Trudy and also now his bum chum Juggy of the ndp. Canada is no longer the democratic gem it once was thanks to the last 8 years under Trudys dictatorship!.
It simply amazes me that all the idiots that want a ceasefire don’t understand that Israel gave the Gaza Strip to the Palestinians in 2005 and removed their military and 23 settlements so the Palestinians could have their “state”. And what did they do with their opportunity? They tore up the water pipes to build rocket launchers and in 2006 elected Hamas to govern them. Hamas, who still rules the Palestinians and whose very charter calls for the complete destruction of Israel and the killing of all Jews. The “two state” solution is a complete lie and There will be no peace until Hamas is eradicated.
A true cease-fire would have to include a commitment on both sides to non-aggression for an agreed amount of time. Hamas would never give that commitment, or, if they did, it would be taqiyya – they have promised to repeat the events of 7/10 again and again.
Most governments have apparently turned to shit. Hungary cannot hold out by itself. But it could at least provide some respite.
And so?
Et alors?
Nu?
The Israelis are the ones that have been pushed too far. Result is what we now see and it is the right thing to do.
As a Canadian this is embarrassing.
The UN is NO LONGER a RELIABLE organization for promoting peace for ALL nations.
Understand the actual plans for a Palestinian state.
This would be a Hamas-Fatah-Isis Iranian regime that endangers Israel’ heartland and would be a launching pad for a non-stop attack on innocent civilians.
A poll taken by Israelis found that by a 10 to 1 margin, they support Israel’s sovereignty in Judea and Samaria and opppose a Palestinian Arab State.
Canada….demand and be damned. No sane country gives a flying wit what you would prefer, especially since you went off the deep end with that bot dictator a few years ago.
Get rid of the kid running things there and rejoin the world.
That is easier said than done. Trudy has a lot of help from his friends across the big Pacific and now he has the total support of the jughead who ensures that both Trudy and the jughead stay exactly where they are. Those two are holding 40 millions Candians hostage. Canadians can no longer rely on votes to oust a thing like Trudy because Canada is no longer the democratic gem it once was. The last 8 years of Trudy has paved the way for the authoritarian state that it has now become but many still can not connect the dots.
