...born with the gift of laughter and a sense that the world was mad

The JDL takes action: No doubt fed up with the fecklessness of the Jewstablishment (which is so engrossed in the search for phantom Nazis that it is ignoring the very real and present danger), the JDL has taken it upon itself to shake people awake. From the Intellectual Conservative blog via DhimmiWatch:

Defiant chants of "Condemn Muslim Terrorism Now" and "Jewish Blood Is Not Cheap" could be heard in the streets of downtown Toronto, on Thursday afternoon, July 31st, as 30 members of Toronto's Jewish Defense League staged an angry demonstration in front of the offices of the Canadian Arab Federation. Responding to the dramatic rise in anti-Semitic attacks on Jews by Muslims in the Toronto area, Meir Weinstein, director of the JDL in Toronto, said, "The abject silence on the part of the Canadian Arab Federation in the face of vitriolic attacks on Jews by Muslim perpetrators is tantamount to tacit approval of anti-Semitism and gives a green light to others who would entertain the notion of attacking Jews."
 
Weinstein was specifically referring to an attack that occurred on November 3, 2006, when a Jewish teenager and her three friends were viciously assaulted at a Toronto train station by Mustafa Taj, 21, who was recently sentenced to one year in prison by provincial court Judge Bill Cummings, who ruled that the attack was racially motivated.
 
According to a report in the Canadian newspaper, The Calgary Sun, dated July 24, 2008, on November 2, 2006, "Taj approached the group (of teenagers) around 10:45 pm, and asked 'who's Jewish.' Nichola Cordato, then 16, stated 'me' and Taj grabbed her and said, 'I'm Muslim and hate Jews.'" The report continues: "He then slapped her in the face and pullled her hair before her friends, Jessica Motta, Kayla Hungle and Daniel Ball attempted to intervene. Hungle attempted to prevent Taj from further attacking Cordato and was punched in the face by him. Motta then intervened and was punched in the face, pulled to the ground by her hair and kicked in the stomach and ribs. When Ball tried to stop the assaults, he was thrown onto the C-Train tracks where he fell onto his back and was spat upon by Taj. During the melee, Taj called Cordato a 'Jewish piece of (crap).'"
 
Prosecutors Ken McCaffrey and Inayat Jetha had sought a sentence of up to two years for the hate crime. Prior to sentencing, McCaffrey called into evidence a similar assault perpetrated by Taj a year earlier when he approached a black male at an LRT station and assaulted him.  
 
"The Canadian Arab Federation has not only not uttered one word of condemnation for this horrific attack, but they have remained silent in the face of arson attacks in Canada directed against shuls and Jewish community centers and violent attacks on Jewish students on local university campuses," said Weinstein. He also noted that yet another anti-Semitic attack occurred as recently as Friday, July 18th, 2008, when "a Jewish camp in northern Ontario was attacked. No one was hurt but property was smashed and tires slashed, sending a clear message. The camp staff was told by the town that Jews were no longer welcome in their stores."
 
According to Weinstein, the Canadian Arab Federation holds the dubious distinction of being an organization that has lent its support and succor to the forces of Islamic terrorism and has worked assiduously to promote both anti-Semitic and anti-Israel sentiment. He charges that members of the CAF attended a Cairo conference last year sponsored by the notoriously anti-Israel organization, The Muslim Brotherhood, that featured speakers who were high-ranking members of Hamas and Hezbollah, and that the CAF justifies the terrorist acts that these organizations engage in. He adds that, "Jewish businesses in Canada are picketed by groups supported by the CAF, claiming these businesses support 'Israeli Apartheid.'"…

Shhh. Don’t tell the Tammy and Leo that the Muslim Brotherhood and its ilk are the threat. It’s not like anyone can complain about those guys to an HRC (and as long as the Jewstablishment has its HRC security blankie and a warm cup of cocoa, it can still get to sleep at night).
