University of Toronto compulsory student fees used to fund activities the Canadian government defines as antisemitic

Students at the University of Toronto are forced, through the compulsory student activity fees they have to pay each year, to fund the radical so-called "Ontario Public Interest Research Group."

Rather than actual public interest, U of T's OPIRG funds and promotes among other things, Marxist revolutionary organizations and antisemitic boycotts of Israel.

Individual University of Toronto students can ask to have the money that is taken from them to fund this idiocy returned. But I have had U of T students contact me to say that when they do so, they face harassment and intimidation.

Now, the tax levied on unwilling University of Toronto students is being used to fund activities which are clearly defined as antisemitism by the Government of Canada.

OPIRG has a job posting up for a "Palestine Booklet Project Coordinator." The job description states: "This booklet is meant to assist those engaged in Palestine solidarity organizing by sharing strategies for organizing campus based divestment campaigns..."

The divestment campaigns mentioned are part of an antisemitic boycott strategy designed to attempt to delegitimize the Jewish State. That effort is, according to Canada's Prime Minister Stephen Harper, "nothing short of sickening" and is "the face of the new antisemitism."

An email sent out by OPIRG details how much they intend to spend to finance this sickening antisemitism:

"This is a part-time temporary staff position with 20 hours per week at a rate of$15/hour, for a period of three months. "

That works out to about $3600 of funds, culled from unsuspecting students, to be used at a publicly funded university to pay to promote bigotry and hatred that is explicitly condemned by the Canadian government.

I hope the University of Toronto's donors are paying attention to how their tax dollars and institutions of "higher learning" are hard at work.

Roger Waters' new biggest fan: neo-Nazi, former Ku Klux Klan Grand Dragon David Duke

The notoriously vicious bigot, David Duke, is now a huge fan of anti-Semite Roger Waters because he supposedly "revealed that the “Jewish lobby” controls the political discourse in America and the music industry in America."

When Duke is out there saying how wonderful you are, it really is time to look in the mirror and wonder whether a piece of shit is looking back at you.

I would doubt Waters has enough intelligence or self-awareness to be bothered though.

Mental patients, Communist cretins, Palestinian terror-enablers and other assorted morons gather to shout at Stephen Harper

Blogwrath was outside the Jewish National Fund's gala to honor Stephen Harper yesterday, covering the usual suspect imbeciles who routinely protest such events.

Even the mainstream media, which detests Harper, ignored this protest by a few dozen cretins. Most likely because if they covered it, they realize they'd probably create sympathy for the Harper government by displaying the sort of self-discrediting low-lifes who are so violently opposed to it.

Liars or Idiots? Take your pick to describe John Greyson and Tarek Loubani on their return to Canada

It sounds like it could be a scene from some of the incoherent, taxpayer-financed, homoerotic drivel that John Greyson tries to pass off as "film making." Two dark, lean men, after release from the sweaty confinement of a crowded prison cell, find themselves adulated to the point where they have to towel each other off following a series of sloppy tongue-baths from fawning interviewers.

That scenario did not spring from another dreadful John Greyson screenplay. It was instead scripted by the shallow, uncritical, vapid personalities in Toronto's mainstream news media as they fell over one another to verbally fellate the two Canadians who were imprisoned in Egypt as a result of their own recklessness and stupidity.

Over the last few days, John Greyson and Tarek Loubani have presented to the media what appears to be a well-rehearsed explanation for their presence at a Muslim Brotherhood riot in Egypt that resulted in their arrest, and an unconvincing depiction of themselves as "social justice" activists and humanitarians. Sickeningly, the open-mouthed "journalists" at the CBC and CTV gobbled with absolute credulity everything the pair of extremists offered.

Fortunately, most Canadians are a good deal more insightful than their "intellectual and moral superiors" in mainstream news media who decide what the news is and how it should be carefully filtered to the lesser, non-media public.  And a good thing too, because Greyson and Loubani's tale of their Egyptian woes, just like any other John Greyson script, doesn't make any sense.

When asked what they were doing at the protest that led to their arrest, Loubani and Greyson say that they "misread" the situation and that they thought the protest wouldn't have turned violent.

The protest they decided to "observe," the one that they got caught up in and were arrested for attending, was a declared Muslim Brotherhood "Day of Rage." So Lubani and Greyson would have us believe they thought they would participate in that as-of-yet unheard of phenomenon, a non-violent Muslim Brotherhood Day of Rage??

It seems like a particular type of journalist was chosen to conduct interviews with the fanatical duo. Not all journalists at the CBC and CTV are bubbleheads, but did any of the ones selected to question Loubani or Greyson challenge them on what should have been an obvious canyon of implausibility in their tale?

Not a single one.

One can only speculate whether some prearranged agreement with the media to whom they spoke stipulated that any challenge to their unlikely story was off the table.

It's well worth noting that if Greyson and Loubani are to be taken at their word, it means that pair who are fixated with the issue of Israel and Palestine do not, by their own admission, know much about the geopolitical situation in the region around the subject of their pathological obsession.

That's very, very significant.

Because the Israeli/Palestinian dilemma cannot be rationally understood outside the wider context of the much larger Arab/Israeli conflict. So evidently, the idiots Greyson and Loubani have embroiled themselves in a campaign to demonize Israel without any comprehensive understanding of the issue as a whole. That would make them completely typical of most of the vapid characters so embroiled in anti-Israel campaigns.

Oh, wait! As they have insisted from interview to interview, Greyson and Loubani are pro-Palestine but most definitely are not anti-Israel.

In that, they are telling another lie.

The only apparent method Greyson has ever chosen to promote Palestinian national self determination is to try to destroy Jewish national self-determination.

Short of murdering an Israeli child by bashing its head against a rock, a method of activism favored by some highly regarded "pro-Palestinians," it makes one wonder where that enigmatic line is that separates what a deluded character like Greyson does from being anti-Israel. He is a leader of  the depraved bigots calling themselves Queers Against Israeli Apartheid that promote the vile slander accusing Israel of being an apartheid state. He hypocritically subjects Israel to double standards and a form of vilification he reserves for no other nation in the world. Greyson has supported a boycott, divestment and sanctions campaign against Israel that many in even the genuine pro-Palestinian camp regard as transcending the line between anti-Zionism and anti-Semitism.

Exactly what Greyson has done for Palestinians that does not exclusively manifest as demonization of the Jewish State is something more elusive than the Loch Ness Monster, which at least some people claim to have seen.

Though the CBC and CTV reporters were either too uninformed or star-struck to refute any of the preposterous answers, anyone who bothers to check facts will learn that Greyson and Loubani provided their own undoing.

Loubani's assertion that aid is desperately needed in Gaza is outright ridiculous.

The "desperate" need for aid to Gaza that a lie that narcissistic activists use to justify their adventures as low-risk conflict tourists. Gaza has markets abundantly filled with a variety of foods, luxury malls, fine-dining restaurants and five-star hotels. There is abject poverty in Gaza, but there is also abject poverty in Chicago, Bangladesh and Guadalajara. And unlike impoverished Asians and Latin Americans, the Palestinians are the second highest per capita recipients of international aid in the world, next only to the war-torn Republic of Congo. As far as the "starving Palestinians" go, it is a well known medical fact of which Loubani is or should be aware that Palestinians, including in Gaza, have one of the highest global obesity rates.

Loubani claims Gaza is under "occupation." The occupation ended in 2005. Instead of using the removal of Israeli troops as an opportunity to build a peaceful and prosperous society, Gaza responded with an incessant barrage of missiles against Israel, which have provoked periodic responses. The "siege" Loubani claims Gaza is under is actually a blockade, which would end if the Palestinians stopped shelling Israel and unequivocally recognized its right to exist.

But Gaza, under its rulers Hamas, has done neither of those things as they steadfastly cling to their anti-Semitic Charter which calls for the genocide of Jews. Among its hateful degeneracy which borders on the comical, Hamas actually posits international conspiracies between Jews, Freemasons and (believe it or not!) The Rotary and Lions Clubs.

There is so much that is untrue and absurd in Greyson and Loubani's account, it could take enough space to fill a dozen blog postings.

The most regrettable part of this is that it is to blogs and only one of our national media organizations one needs to look to find the truth about those radicals, since they won't even be asked hard questions by the so-called journalists at Canada's tax-funded state broadcaster.

Socialist Studies Forces The Student School To Kill Its Facebook Page after exposing its political fanaticism and links to Holocaust-denying website

The hateful so-called "Social Justice" campaign at the alternative "The Student School" has been yet another episode in a long list of recent idiotic blunders coming from Toronto District School Board.

The Holocaust-denying website Veterans Today was one of many odious sources that got approbation from The Student School, as well as one of it's teachers "liking" a comment that called Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper a "fascist."

It was the blog Socialist Studies which first noted the disgraceful activities at this publicly funded school. Socialist Studies has diligently investigated and continues to report a series of abuses of public trust by Ontario's School Boards and Teachers' Unions.

As a result, The Student School has killed its facebook page.

In a way that's a result. But I fear the same reprehensible activities will continue there, only now The Student School will be more secretive about them.

Egypt should release the pair of Canadian useful idiot terror enablers

Word has come down that Canadian radical activists John Greyson and Tarek Loubani, currently imprisoned in Egypt, have been accused of murder.

I find it hard to believe those two nitwits would actually have killed anyone.

They did, however. decide to go to a violent demonstration that the Egyptian authorities declared illegal. In what strains credulity, they claimed they were just going to check out a protest on a Muslim Brotherhood declared "Day of Rage," which invariably meant that the recently outlawed Islamist organization was planning violent attacks on the government. 

That degree of idiocy from Greyson and Loubani is something I can believe. Doing that as foreigners and expecting to be able to use their Canadian passports as a "get out of jail free" card demonstrates a degree of arrogance and stupidity that is quite typical of our country's self-entitled activists. 

But this time it backfired big time.

Greyson and Loubani originally went to Egypt to use it as a transit station to enter the Muslim Brotherhood-controlled Gaza strip. If the duo's past is any guide, their purpose was to lend tacit support to Hamas by depicting Gaza's population as oppressed victims. However the territory they intended to support has been used in recent weeks as a launching pad for terror attacks against Egyptians.

It's hardly surprising that Egypt's government was less than sympathetic to foreign meddlers in their internal affairs. Particularly ones who, even with what may have been good intentions on the part of Loubani, by their own admission provided support to a banned group.

It is possible that Egypt has decided to use Greyson and Loubani as examples to dissuade other foreign agitators from interfering in their internal politics. Right now, thanks to the thoroughly inept diplomacy of Barack Obama, the US and westerners in general are more despised in Egypt than ever. Egypt rose up as never before, even under the rule of Hosni Mubarak, to rid themselves of the oppressive yolk of the Muslim Brotherhood's rule. Obama's ill-informed, equivocal statements that seemed to support the Brotherhood generated thorough contempt, not only for him, but for all outsiders in Egypt. 

Greyson and Loubani do indeed deserve contempt for their useful idiot enabling of terrorists, their arrogance and their stupidity, but they do not deserve to die.

Unless there is genuine evidence of their guilt, Egypt would serve its own purposes better by deporting Greyson and Loubani and never allowing them back, rather than handing them a victory by turning them into undeserving martyrs. 

Undercover Kitty's guide to the cretinous history of the violent, Marxist, Ontario Coalition Against Poverty

UPDATE: 25/6/13 - Google cache as well as UnderCover Kitt's blog are now gone for the time being., so links below this update may not work. However, to get an idea of the despicable people behind and involved  with OCAP, you can see these posts HERE, HERE, HERE HERE, and HERE

UPDATE: 25/6/13  5:15 pm Good news, everyone! GenuineWitty has archived Undercover Kitty's posts, so you can view the OCAP expose. Here is PART 1   PART 2  and PART 3

-----

OCAP and John Clarke are affiliated with an number of groups including the New Socialists who John Clarke described as OCAP’s “Sein Feinn”, plus the Communist Party of Canada, No One Is Illegal Toronto and other groups such as the Federation of Metro Tenants Associations.

More of Part 1 HERE   (UPDATE: UndercoverKitty's blog was taken down by Wordpress under mysterious circumstances. The link to the cached version of Part 1 is HERE)

John Ronald Clarke, who likes the humble title of OCAP organiser, but is their defacto leader and owner. Born May 16, 1954. (Some reports claim he was born on May 26) John emigrated to Canada from England as a sponsored immigrant by his sister. He  worked from 1976 to 1982 at the London Westinghouse Plant (Ontario)when he was laid off.  His labor union which he was quite active in,  hated him would  not support him. He subsequently formed the Union of Unemployed Workers and in 1989 created the Ontario Coalition Against Poverty. John Clarke  was a worker  factory,  laid off  in 1982.  After losing his job, he helped form a union of the unemployed. In 1990, this organization helped out in the campaign that led to the formation of OCAP. In the autumn of 1990, the founding conference of OCAP took place. After some debate, it set a course for the organization that committed it to mobilizing poor and homeless people to fight back through militant, direct action

More than a year after his death, Communist idiots are still infuriated Christopher Hitchens turned his back on them

From a review of The Trial of Christopher Hitchens in the moronic, neo-Marxist website rabble.ca, published by the same-sex spouse of NDP Deputy Leader Libby Davies:

Immediately after the September 11 attacks, he spoke of caution, of not veering into overreaction, yet soon he was picking fights with anyone who dared question U.S. reaction or even contextualize the attacks as "Anti-American" or worse. His early smears of Noam Chomsky and many others allowed for the entry -- even into some quarters of the Left for a short time -- of talk of loyalty and patriotism.

Hitchens became the patron saint of what some came to call "The Decent Left," those who signed the "Euston Manifesto."  Seymour’s first book, The Liberal Defence of Murder, gives a history and analysis of this tendency, and is well worth the read.  But Hitchens went far beyond even the "decent left" in his calls for civilizational warfare, his shocking and even genocidal Islamophobia (stating that he refused to share a planet with this "enemy"), even, tragically, his disavowal of his early and stalwart anti-Zionism.

The review is peppered with the predictable vapid Marxist jargon; reactionary, comrades,  revolutionary socialism, McCarthyist and so on...

It reeks of the unintentionally self-parodying, hysterical outrage that only a stupid western Marxist could muster.

Iranian shills at Press TV want Ben Affleck hanged for War Crimes

Yeah, you read that headline right. They want Ben Affleck, that Ben Affleck, hanged for 'war crimes."

The reason Iran's shills want the Hollywood star punished is for making the Academy Award-winning Argo, which they say could lead America to a war with Iran.

The article was done by the lunatic 9-11 conspiracy theorist Kevin Barrett, who writes for an innocuously named anti-Semitic, online clearinghouse for mentally unbalanced bigots called Veterans Today.

His article appeared in Iran's English language propaganda service, Press TV.

The idiots at Press TV also think Affleck could be convicted of war crimes for his role in making Pearl Harbour.

Evidently, film criticism in Iran has reached the levels of tolerance they show to Gays in that brutal, authoritarian, Islamofascist country.

While the Iranians and their stooges are way off base on Argo, which was a good movie, they might have a point on the dreadful Pearl Harbor. But hanging seems a bit severe for being in a crappy movie. Although after seeing Gigli, 10 lashes for Affleck at the time did seem like a reasonable retribution sacrificing almost two hours for that drek. But clearly Ben has rehabilitated himself since then.

Mark Steyn has some interesting observations about this you can read at The National Review online.

Nutcase anti-Capitalist group OCAP feeling pressure from a blogger

Greg's blog is GenuineWitty, where after having been intimately involved with the Occupy Protest, he started exposing how it had been usurped by the Old Left and Union interests, just like the ones that provide funding to The Ontario Coalition Against Poverty. They didn't like that.

Trying to get someone who is peacefully, quietly observing, kicked out of a public park during a public demonstration shows the moronic, totalitarian attitude of OCAP and similar anti-Capitalist idiots.

As usual, Billy Connolly has the most sensible view on this matter:

Promotion of violence from the airheads at OISE

No one familiar with the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education gets surprised any longer by the idiotic fanaticism that goes on there.

They have programs that tacitly defend forced female genital mutilation, that are anti-Semitic, overtly anti-Western and largely anti-democratic. Sadly this institution produces people who go on to be senior school administrators and policy advisers to various provincial Ministries of Education.

Their latest gem is this gathering of morons on July 12 called:

Palestine to Philippines: It’s Right to Rebel

Internationalist Solidarity and Resistance Against Occupation and Counter-Insurgency

In other words OISE-approved terrorism and violence. Charming, huh? Your tax dollars help support travesties like this.

And for added insult to the University of Toronto, the fees it  forcibly extracts from students for "activities" and are funneled into the radical communist Ontario Public Interest Research Group is helping to pay for it.

Idiotic Jewish Voices (IJV) are out to demonize the NDP's Thomas Mulcair

Independent Jewish Voices (IJV), a group comprised mainly of emotionally unstable Jewish radicals whose primary purpose appears to be to dispel the stereotype that all Jews are smart, is outraged, outraged that supporters of Israel are geting behind the NDP leadership bid of Thomas Mulcair.

They are a single-issue group of Jews whose only clear goal is to vilify the Jewish state and anyone who doesn't want it destroyed.

Members of this organization that has aligned itself with anti-Semitic forces from Iran and the Muslim middle east who want to eradicate the Jewish presence in Jerusalem, object to being called self-hating Jews. While as a matter of accuracy, they are right to object to it. They aren't self-hating, it's other Jews that they hate. But that's just another demonstration of their deficiencies. The bigots of IJV, had they the capacity for intelligent self-reflection, should hate themselves, yet they have too little insight for that to be likely.

The membership of this group of privileged, aged Marxists is engaged in a desperate search for relevance and meaning in their worthless lives. I have seem members of that group become literally apoplectic when their prejudice and ignorance was challenged by simple questions of fact by a Toronto City Councilor. The tunnel-minded members of IJV who continually congratulate themselves on their supposed "critical thinking" skills are only comfortable speaking unchallenged to like-minded souls. They are intellectually unequipped for anything else.

So indeed, rather than self hate, they should consider self-pity. They would excel at that, since they are already trying to paint themselves as martyrs who are being robbed of free speech merely by their being criticized. That is more evidence of their dearth of insight. Criticism is not deprivation of free speech. If they really want to understand what deprivation of free speech is, they have only to look at their allies who support the tyrannies of Iran, Hezbollah and Hamas, who do not criticize people for  saying something they find objectionable, they kill them for it.
