Riiiiiighttt ... that's why Canada has the world's 4th-largest Jewish population (after the US, Israel, and France) - more than the UK and Germany combined
meanwhile, in your beloved Russia ...

n 1940s Europe, Jews were forbidden by Hitler’s Nazis from stepping onto city buses.

It’s not just a matter of not letting them on the bus because of their religion — these buses booked to transport Jewish Torontonians to Ottawa didn’t even show up as scheduled.
The latest move of anti-Semitism saw about 500 people trying to get to the pro-Israel rally in Ottawa thrown under the bus.
Or perhaps a better way of saying it is off the bus — and on the side of the road.
There were 70 buses lined up to take more than 2,000 people to Parliament Hill on Monday morning but at the last moment something suspicious happened.
“We were shocked that, of more than 70 buses UJA booked, 17 did not show up,” UJA president and CEO Adam Minsky said in a statement. “Those 17 buses were the responsibility of a particular sub-contracted company. Despite charging in full in advance and confirming its participation, the company did not send a single bus and has declined all communications while refusing to provide any explanation.
“Given the absolute silence of the sub-contractor and with no other explanation, we are driven to the view that this shameful decision is intended to disrupt our peaceful rally out of hatred toward Jews.
Minsky added: “What happened today is sickening and outrageous. We will respond aggressively with every legal and public affairs tool at our disposal. UJA is already working with legal counsel and will be proceeding with strong, decisive actions against this company. Hate and discrimination against any community can never be tolerated in Canada.”
It’s still unclear what happened here. But whatever it was, it should be fully exposed.
“It smells,” said Moshe Birnbaum from one of the buses on Highway 401 heading to the capital. “There were no weather issues. It’s obvious what happened here.”
Others told the Toronto Sun that they feel this is something the police should be contacted over as both a potential theft investigation and also a possible hate crime.
“They didn’t want to drive Jews,” said one of the thousands on the way to Ottawa for the afternoon rally scheduled to have many speakers including MPs Anthony Housefather and Melissa Lantsman and Rex Murphy. “This also happened at the rally in Washington where drivers wouldn’t drive people from the airport to the capitol.”
It’s pure Jew hatred. But it’s also very dangerous to do this to people on such a cold day.
Among those stranded were 350 students who were outside at 6 a.m. with nowhere to go. UJA said they “made alternative travel arrangements for those affected.”
Hopefully there will be a full investigation into just what happened here and discipline for those who pulled this move. The same move pulled on the Washington rally last month saw 900 people from Detroit stuck with no ride.
There are 17 GTA bus drivers who should be asked to produce a valid doctor’s note.
But why would one expect a True Believer to have read the New Testament? Sheesh!
Lachrymabilem Judaeorum was issued in 1247 to German prelates by Pope Innocent IV; ordered an end to persecution of Jews and declared that the blood libel accusation is false.

That’s an unfounded conspiracy theory because I’m old enough to remember that Margaret’s first visit to meet Fidel was more than two years after Justin was born, but what the hell would a Canadian know? I’ll defer to your American-based expertise.
The same mob that welcomed Him into Jerusalem as a hero five days earlier.
His own Jewish disciples thought of him as a Rabbi, not the Messiah, but what would a lapsed Roman Catholic understand about Christianity anyway?
I never knew that. Thank you!
Matthew 16:16
The Twelve knew he was the “Christ, the Son of the living God”.
America's Excuse is:
Americans have Voted for DemoKKKrats and for KKK, Nazi and Socialist Policy, with effectively no significant non liberal opposition, since the end of the Civil War.
In short America's excuse is: We Got What We Voted For, and we will still continue to Vote DemoKKKrat and RINO.
I never heard of that Chapter & Verse. Thanks!
I doesn’t take school to be educated. Quelle surprise!
The uses of the phrase "thrown under the bus" are getting ridiculous.
Put the bus companies out of business.
Leftists only like a few Jews money. Beyond that, they despise them.
Are Americans the only ones who are inclined to believe it? Hell,many of us here in the US are more than willing to see The Big Guy as being owned...lock,stock and barrel...by Red China!
24 So when Pilate saw that he was gaining nothing, but rather that a riot was beginning, he took water and washed his hands before the crowd, saying, “I am innocent of this righteous man’s blood; see to it yourselves.” 25 And all the people answered, “His blood be on us and on our children!” 26 Then he released for them Barabbas, and having scourged Jesus, delivered him to be crucified.
I've always found that ironic ... as Christians we speak of being washed clean, or of having our robes washed clean, in the Blood of The Lamb. I think of the Centurion who stabbed his spear into Jesus' side, while His body hung on the cross. The Centurion certainly got some of Jesus' blood and water on him ... what an honor! Pious tradition names him Longinus, and holds him as one of the earliest Christians.
His Blood be upon us indeed!
In third grade Catechism we were taught that the Centurion out of a sincere desire to end Christ’s suffering by hastening His death. It was common at the time for death by crucifixion to take several days, while the Lord was condemned in the morning and dead by sundown.
Didn’t something similar happen recently for a pro-Israel rally in DC? I think I read that a bunch of people got stranded at Dulles Airport due to chartered buses not showing up.
I’ll search later.
That may have been the Centurion’s intention. Pilate ordered the crucified men to be killed and the bodies taken down, due to the oncoming Sabbath, but Jesus was already dead. The spearthrust would have been more along the lines of “making sure”. The thieves were killed by breaking their legs.
It did ... two or more buses didn’t show up at IAD to pick up Jewish passengers from a charter plane. They were headed to DC for a pro-Israel rally.
Lots of discussion on this forum.
Thanks. I just came up for air between work meetings. I did the classic FReeper move of posting based off of the headline.
