    RT @michaelgove: Always happy to rebut mendacious anti-semitic activism
    Declassified UK @declassifiedUK
    Watch the full video here: We got a furious response from the former Conservative minister Lord Michael Gove when we asked about his position on Israel at the Labour Conference. Gove claimed he knew more about antisemitism than Zack Polanski, the only Jewish leader of a major political party in the UK. He also accused us of not being journalists and of an obsession with Israel, despite the Labour government's change in position on the occupation of Palestine being the key topic at this year's conference. Gove now sits in the House of Lords and is editor of right-wing magazine The Spectator.

    RT @cbcwatcher: CBC is five months late On May 15 the U.S. unsealed charges against Iranian IRGC-linked operative Mohammad Baqer Al-Saadi. Court documents named him as the one behind the March Toronto U.S. Consulate shooting and a synagogue attack—he even claimed it on a wiretap. Globe, Sun, Star and Global reported the Toronto link within days CBC stuck to the “kids hired on apps” frame and only today says the attacks “appear to have been financed by the Iranian government.” The indictment was public. The pattern was clear. Other outlets treated it as news in May. CBC waited half a year to say what the Americans already charged Why did CBC dither? @brodiefenlon

    Bret Stephens is 🎯 “What’s at stake in this election isn’t Israel’s “standing.” Of the many intellectually flabby critiques of Israeli policy since Oct. 7, the idea that Israel should have traded its physical security for the sake of some added dollops of liberal pity is among the flabbiest. As I’ve written before, Israel doesn’t exist to showcase Jewish victimization. It exists to end it."

    Did you know? The original Nokia ringtone, known as the Nokia tune, is derived from a piece of solo guitar music called Gran Vals, composed by Francisco Tárrega in 1902.

    The Government of Canada currently says that citizenship only began on January 1, 1947 meaning our 111,000 war dead from the World Wars weren't Canadian. Please sign this Parliamentary petition to get this corrected. [and please pass it on]

    Telecommunications is a capital-intensive industry. Networks don't improve on their own. Networks don't expand on their own. Networks are built with telecom investment Did Canada accidentally regulate away telecom investment? • Telecom Trends

    RT @Nadav_Eyal: Netanyahu and Eisenkot agree on Israel’s enemies. But they represent two radically different Israels. Netanyahu’s: increasingly religious, dominated by the far right, subsidizing those who neither work nor serve. Eisenkot’s: more inclusive, demanding shared obligations and the rule of law. This election is about the very character of Israel. My @washingtonpost piece:

    #CRTC issues penalties of ~$100K against Esprit Habitat for telemarketing violations. I googled them; numerous complaints with Quebec's Office de protection du consommateur (OPC). As with all CRTC fines, I wonder if the cash will ever be collected.

    RT @dansenor: Regardless of where you stand on this election, it’s moving to see @gadi_eisenkot accompany former hostage Gadi Moses to his polling place to vote…in Kibbutz Nir Oz. On October 7th, 2023, one in four residents of Nir Oz were killed or taken hostage. After being massacred, Israelis rebuild their communities to flourish. One of many signs of Israel’s promise: the ballot box.

    RT @richardmarceau: "The precisely engineered stone paving of the Pilgrimage Road in the Old City of Jerusalem, built 2,200 years ago, has recently been restored and the road opened to the public. Roman legionnaires ran amok here in 70CE, burning the shops and houses and slaughtering the Jewish rebels. The road is proof that Zionism is not a "settler-colonial" ideology."

    Seven years (and confirmations from several more grandkids) later, this post merits a little editing. Nothing I have done in my professional life has provided the same joy or satisfaction as rocking a grandchild to sleep.
