The purpose of the event is not one of information, but an opportunity for coordination by people who seek to eliminate the existence of Israel as a Jewish state. In fact, one of the speakers, Charlotte Kates, has, according to Front Page Magazine reportedly said that Israeli children are "legitimate" targets for suicide bombing and has called for the destruction of Israel "by any means necessary."
Included within the seminar are sessions entitled "Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions: Global Solidarity for Palestine" and "Canada and Israel: Settler-Colonial United Front" suggesting these people are the same sort of vapid hypocrites who declared that Canada and Israel are both apartheid states, yet many of whom are involved in movements that advocate for the most repressive state sponsor of terror in the world.
It's probably no coincidence that this meeting is being held in a public library on the doorstep of Libby Davies' East Vancouver riding. Davies, the NDP Member of Parliament for the riding with the highest per capita ratio of crackheads and junkies in Canada has endorsed a boycott of Israel, the only liberal democracy in its region, and has boasted of attendance at a rally featuring a French politician who was tried for anti-Semitism.
In their hatred for Israel, the fanatics who plan to gather in a publicly financed library are more extreme than the leadership of the Palestinian Authority. As they put it:
Saeb Erekat of the PA recently stressed that the PA has no desire to "delegitimize Israel," using the same term as the organized Zionist movement in denouncing the "delegitimization of Israel." In fact, delegitimizing the illegitimate is precisely the struggle of the Palestinian movement for liberation - and exactly the goal of BDS.The mayor of Vancouver is Gregor Robertson. For the sake of decency, he has an obligation to speak out against an abuse of city facilities for the purpose of spreading bigotry and hatred.

UPDATE: Mike Krebs, one of the presenters at the hate-fest, has a very weird history and relationship with his fellow travellers, which is detailed here and here
They aren't more extreme than the PA leadership, just more honest
ReplyDeleteMore honest about their goals perhaps, but also more depraved. These idiots are lending their support, knowingly or through their ignorance and stupidity to do what they can to pave the way for Iran to control the entire region
ReplyDeleteThis is not Libby Davies' riding.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I've corrected accordingly - I looked at the electoral district map and google maps, but not being a Vancouver native...
ReplyDeleteI appreciate your letting me know!
Lefties spewing hate, surprise surprise, NOT.
ReplyDeleteAnd "Law Enforcement" will be more than glad to enable them to do so, if their Masters so desire. The stench is overwhelming.
