Bomb threats against Canadian Jewish schools

Canadian security officials cite Hamas victory for rise in anti-Semitic threats Judeoscope

In a community security alert released today, B’nai Brith Canada revealed that threats were made in recent days against Jewish community institutions.

The alert specifically mentioned bomb threats targeting elementary Jewish schools. Security experts with whom B’nai Brith maintains contact said the electoral victory of Palestinian terrorist organization Hamas could be a reason for the sudden rise of anti-Jewish threats.

The security alert also expressed dismay at the announcement yesterday that the convicted fire-bomber of the United Talmud Torah Jewish Day School in Montreal, Sleiman El-Merhebi, will be released after serving only two-thirds of his sentence this coming May.

According to reports, says B’nai Brith, the parole office El-Merhebi has been assigned to, is located in a building which also hosts a number of Jewish organizations, including B’nai Brith.

B’nai Brith urged members of the Jewish community to be particularly vigilant.

Bomb threats against Jewish schools?

This is just absurd.

Watching the embassies burn on tv for the second time today, and now threats of killing innocent children with explosives?

The Muslims are tightening the noose around their own necks for stuff like this.

[Proud_USA_Republican]

All that muslim immigration is paying off for Canada.

[Fruitbat]

More "different religion, different culture."

[Fruitbat]

All that muslim immigration is paying off for Canada.

Yeah, sure is! And just wait, they haven't reaped half the fruits that are coming.

[kjo]

Yes. The Canadians haven't been too wise in recent years about whom they've let in.

They are going to pay a price. And I fear they will begin paying soon.

[Chgogal]

Pinging CAIR. Pinging CAIR.

Your "religion of peace" buds are NOT acting nicely.

Pinging CAIR. Pinging CAIR.

[Cinnamon Girl]

How long did he serve for bombing the school? And why can't he be deported?

[ovrtaxt]

Well, when do we start burning down embassies?

[Stayingawayfromthedarkside]

Remember, if they do attack a school in Canada, the leftists will blame Bush for attacking the muslims in their own homeland. Oh, and of course the JOOOOOS!!!

[TheForceOfOne]

That Trojan Horse the Muslims wheeled into Canada, with Canada's approval doesn't look so pretty anymore.

[backhoe]

Just Damn!

[CondorFlight]

"the parole office El-Merhebi has been assigned to, is located in a building which also hosts a number of Jewish organizations, including B’nai Brith"

No problem. El-Merhebi is a member of the religion of peace. . . .right?

[Paleo Conservative]

Well, Jewish schools are where the Jewish children are, so it makes sense.

There was a Canadian citizen arrested in Gaza while being trained by Hamas, who have numerous cells in the US, to carry out attacks on Jewish targets in the US.

[popdonnelly]

CAIR is full of camel dung. I don't hear of any threats against Muslim schools. But CAIR whines and cries that Muslims are being picked on.

Jerusalem, December 8, 2003
Hamas-trained terrorist, Canadian national, arrested by ISA (Communicated by the GPO)

On November 1, 2003, Jamal Akal, 23, originally from Nuseirat was detained by the ISA; Akal has lived in Canada since 1999 and holds Canadian citizenship.

Akal arrived in the Gaza Strip just over one month ago, ostensibly on a family visit. During his investigation, it arose that during his visit, he was trained by Hamas in order to assassinate a senior Israeli official visiting the US and to attack members of the US and Canadian Jewish communities.

During his investigation, Akal admitted that several days after arriving in the Gaza Strip, he met with Ahmed Wahabe, a senior Hamas terrorist from Nuseirat. Wahabe told Akal that he had been recruited to Hamas and asked Akal if he could assist it in Canada. After Akal agreed, Wahabe instructed him to gather information (via the media) on a senior Israeli official who was arriving in the US. Wahabe instructed him to then monitor the senior Israeli official's movements and attempt to assassinate the official in a sniper attack. Wahabe also asked Akal to attack members of the US and Canadian Jewish communities, either by shooting or by bombing their homes and/or cars. Wahabe told Akal (inter alia): "New York is an easy place to find Jews." Wahabe asked Akal to use an M-16 that he would purchase in the US or Canada for the aforementioned attacks and advised him to train with an M-16 before returning to Canada.

Wahabe told Akal to contact people in the mosques that he prayed in in Canada and raise funds, ostensibly for the families of suicide bombers, which he would actually use for purchasing a weapon and financing his expenses in monitoring his prospective targets and in perpetrating the attacks.

Three days before Akal was due to return to Canada, Wahabe contacted him again, taught him how to use an M-16 (including practice shooting near Netzarim). Wahabe also gave Akal theoretical and practical instruction in making bombs.

Akal said that due to the uniqueness of the attack, he was due to receive the approval of the Hamas leadership in attributing responsibility for the attack to Al Qaida, not Hamas.

Following the April 30, 2003 attack on a Tel Aviv pub, which was perpetrated by terrorists who held British passports, the security services have increased their readiness for the possibility that Hamas will uses foreign nationals in order to perpetrate attacks. Akal's arrest prevented a terrorist attack.

The Muslims are tightening the noose around their own necks for stuff like this.

So when does the floor drop out?

"It's almost time for us all to wear armbands together"

Star of David? Or Mohammed's mug? Maybe one on each arm?

[PzLdr]

It's a kosher gyroscope.

[MarkeyD]

The Muslims are tightening the noose around their own necks for stuff like this. So when does the floor drop out?

Never. The libs are looking inward to figure out what they did wrong in order to be more sensitive in the future.

[Squawk 8888]

Well, I'm showing my support today by buying Danish butter cookies.

[Squawk 8888]

Used in the guidance system for the Jericho missile, no doubt.

[timsbella]

Thanks, Aloette. We have a parent patrol at our Hebrew Sunday School, even though we run it under the auspices of "international language school". The kids see that and patrol cars in front of the schul and just think its normal for people who worship.

[Squawk 8888]

Looks like we booted the Libs out of office in the nick of time, then.

[MarkeyD]

Problem is the Europeans and their desire to appease.

[timsbella]

It's been happening in Canada since I was a kid and sadly, now, it's just as strong with my children. Our synagogue is hidden behind a park, we have a police cruiser and the trees caution taped at the high holidays. These are not idle threats - they are very real, and even in our quiet burb, we take them very seriously.

[timsbella]

For a long time, especially in Quebec, it was the virulent Catholics trained with the Christ killer motif - today this group is mostly secular and disinterestd, ergo the muslims stepping up to the plate. There is no shortage of Jew haters in Montreal or Toronto.

[null and void]

Makes sense.

Danish Christians draw some cartoons.

Blow up Jooooooos in Canada.

[timsbella]

No, my point is that this isn't new, there has never been a shortage of people willing to hassle/threaten/kill Jews in Canada. We just look like a nice place to live...and in the scheme of things, we are probably better than most.

[null and void]

Sorry. I didn't intend that to be a direct response to your post. Forgot to change the 'To:' to 'no one in particular'.

Your point is sadly valid, though.

[TheSpottedOwl]

The alert specifically mentioned bomb threats targeting elementary Jewish schools. Security experts with whom B’nai Brith maintains contact said the electoral victory of Palestinian terrorist organization Hamas could be a reason for the sudden rise of anti-Jewish threats.

Canada will regret her suicidal immigration policies, if the government doesn't do something now. What did we expect? The terrorists won an election for pete's sake. They're legit! Had to crack a beer and down a shot after reading this. America, we are next, and they won't differentiate between sectarian private schools and public ones.

Deport them now!

[TheSpottedOwl]

It is time for the US to demand that UK and Canadian entrants have passports and visas. Oh yeah, and actually run a real backround check on them. This is frustrating and frightening. What does Homeland Security actually do about these threats, anyway?

[TheSpottedOwl]

Our new conservative government is sworn in tomorrow.

Good for Canada, and congratulations! It's about time.

[Ashamed Canadian]

You should see the security here in Toronto, Alouette. I live in a very big Jewish area of the city......pretty nuts. No doubt they've targeted Mt. Sinai hospital, but that wouldn't be the first time....

[Ashamed Canadian]

Hey man, no offense, but you guys should be more worried, you've got millions of Muslims in your country, we only have about 500,000 and if they start up they're not going to like the result.

[Ashamed Canadian]

Think the Cronulla beach riots with hockey sticks and axes.

[Zionist Conspirator]

Meanwhile the ADL and the two AJC's are still fretting about those awful Southern Baptists.

The world has gone stark raving mad.

[fanfan]

Good for Canada, and congratulations! It's about time.

Thanks, we are looking for some big positive changes here.

Then we can officially act like the Friends of America we should always have been.

:-)

[TheSpottedOwl]

We don't hold your old government against you. You guys have always been our friends :-) Stay safe from the enemy in our midst.

Bomb threats against Jewish schools?...This is just absurd.

I'm sorry to say this has been going on in the US for 20 years.

[Emmet Fitzhume]

By Muslims in the name of the destruction of Jews?

Back in my day, bomb threats were called in as a "joke" to get students out of class.

When Muslims are calling, however, that is an entirely different story.

Islam, in itself, is a hate crime.

[Wilhelm Tell]

There was a Canadian citizen arrested in Gaza while being trained by Hamas, who have numerous cells in the US, to carry out attacks on Jewish targets in the US.

These are the nice folks the Democrats don't want the government to keep track of. If certain politicians get their way there will be no stopping these sleeper cells.
