Goodness!
They correctly reported them as belonging to the counter-protestor group.


During one incident, it’s alleged a man participating in the counter-demonstration confronted a participant in the Al-Quds demonstration who was holding a stick with an Islamic Republic of Iran flag attached.

Police say the accused began swinging his arms and fists at the victim, breaking the stick and causing pieces of it to strike the victim in the head.

Police allege that in a second incident, another man participating in the counter-demonstration followed a participant who was wearing an Islamic Republic of Iran flag on their back.

Investigators say the accused “spat on the victim and ripped the flag off their back” before returning to the crowd.

Given how many cops were there yesterday, I think we can adequately close the book on whether cops prevent anything from happening.

And it's all over.
Cops marched 4 people off, possibly 2 arrests, 2 released off-site.

NONE OF THEM WERE OURS.

When you see the narrative about arrests at today's action, make a note what it says. As usual, the violence isn't on the Palestinian side.

Every fascist content creator in the city was here. They're going to chirp about arrests without mentioning whom.

No jail support for me, tonight.

Submissions happening for the injunction against today's Jerusalem/Al Quds Day rally.

It's also the day before the International Day Against Police Brutality.

I'm kind of hoping TPS isn't going to give us a bunch more examples for our socials and actual media.

We already have enough.

Israel being Israel.


“Israel’s military advocate general just gave his soldiers license to rape -- so long as the victim is Palestinian,” said Sari Bashi, executive director of the Public Committee Against Torture in Israel, after the case was dismissed.

To be fair, there's enough studies out there also showing that a horrifying percentage of Israelis don't think it's rape if you know the person. So, you know, you can see how they'd find this acceptable.

Suddenly there's movement again on the RCMP investigation into war crimes in Palestine.


The Israeli consumer advocacy organization Hatzlacha asked the Israeli military to provide numbers on active service membership as of March 2025, broken down by citizenship. The Israeli government published the completed freedom-of-information document online.

The Hebrew document says 1,185 Canadians who also hold Israeli citizenship were serving in the Israel Defense Forces as of March 2025. Another 339 Canadians serving with the Israeli military were people with at least three nationalities: Canadian, Israeli and a third nationality.


The data comes as Jewish groups call for clarity from the RCMP on its plans to launch an online portal to allow members of the public to report possible war crimes by Hamas or the Israeli military.

The RCMP confirmed last June that it would “proactively” collect information about possible war crimes and crimes against humanity related to the Israel-Hamas conflict.
