The following article  written by Bernie Farber  Hateful words can hurt is a misguilded attempt to defend the terrible law known as Section 13.   The article placates the false left and the author lacks a clear understanding of the new anti Semitism as explained in  Pipeline of Hatred.  Section 13 is not an effective measure to use against the new anti Semitism but has been used to silence many  pro Israel supporters.  

The Stephen Roth Institute for the Study of Contemporary Anti-Semitism and Racism at Tel Aviv University, in a new report released in cooperation with the European Jewish Congress, establishes that 2009 was a record year for anti-Semitism. “The year in the wake of Operation Cast Lead was the worst since monitoring of anti-Semitic manifestations began two decades ago in terms of both major anti-Semitic violence and the hostile atmosphere generated worldwide by the mass demonstrations and verbal and visual expressions against Israel and the Jews,” note the institute’s scholars.  The anti Jewish campaign was lead by so called ‘progressive’  left wing and radical Islamic groups.

The total number of “violent anti-Semitic incidents” was 1,129, compared to 559 in 2008. That does not include threats, insults, graffiti signs, slogans, “and demonstrations featuring virulently anti-Semitic content.”

What’s more, the institute documents only cases that show “clear anti-Semitic content and intention.” Also, many Jews, fearful of reprisal or skeptical about the outcome, prefer not to file complaints.

We all know what this is in aid of.

I’m expecting a big announcement in the new year.

Boy, are we gonna have fun.

Some of us have started already…

Bernie M. Farber and Marvin Kurz are probably the wimpiest, pussiest loser Jew “men” on the planet, or at least in Canada.

Also?

Actually, Bernie, that blunt force you warn about is already in evidence–at the Human Rights Commissions, where petty bureaucrats tie up certain Canadians (Christians, right wingers, non-Muslims and other politically incorrect sorts) for years in capricious prosecutions conducted via star chambers/kangaroo courts. If that’s “the Canadian way,” then Canada is well on its way to Maoville.

Scaramouche on his latest cliche-riddled blather:

I can understand why Bernie thinks the way he does. He’s the child of a Holocaust survivor and a squishy lefty, a double whammy that all but ensures he’ll be fore’er on the lookout for resurgent Nazis and want to stifle their words lest they give rise to a Shoah II.

To him and those like him who would ratchet back our freedom, I would only point out this: the kind of limits to freedom you demand existed in Weimar Germany, and Adolf Hitler still came to power.

However, an argument could (and, moreover, must) be made that had free speech been allowed to flourish in Hitler’s Germany–which, of course, it most definitely was not–there might never have been a Holocaust.

I hope I played one.

 
This is my feeling about pretty much every election:

Thornhill, you luckies!

You’ll be thrilled to learn that your would-be MP Bernie Farber is totally on top of (i.e., completely wrong about, as usual) a small group of patriotic Englishmen thousands of miles away, trying to fight belligerent Muslims.

Yep, the EDL is a hot local election topic in southern Ontario suburbia!

Retail politics! (But he can get it for you wholesale.)

Go, Bernie, go!!

UPDATE: Bernie Farber’s importance eroding — for first time ever, he was NOT asked to comment on the death of some old Nazi!

UPDATE: Bernie Faber gets coveted Joe Warmington endorsement.

Note to Warmington (who has a newspaper column, and I don’t):

“Social justice” is the stubborn application of unworkable solutions to imaginary problems.

You’re welcome.

UPDATE: what will Bernie “Nobody Knows I’m Gay” Farber make of this?

He said he was there to: “defend the Muslim community against EDL thuggery” and because he “wanted to stand in solidarity with Muslims who oppose far right Islamists.”

But, while holding placards which read ‘Stop EDL & far right Islamists. No to ALL hate’ and ‘Gays & Muslims UNITE! Stop the EDL’, Tatchell was subjected to anti-gay hostility from a minority of homophobic Muslims who, ironically, were part of the anti-EDL demonstration.”

Ouch. Just… ouch.
