In response to today’s post of an interview with the Israeli Ambassador to Canada, Iddo Moed, Canadaland journalists Cherise Seucharan and Noor Azrieh present the following analysis.
…and a fact check of the statements made in the interview.
Canadaland focuses on Canada, so Jesse tries to ask questions that are relevant to Canadians
journalism is supposed to be about distributing factual information
I have a friend in Canada that I know is trying to figure out if he should send his daughter to public school (eventually, she is still quite young) where she could face anti-Semitic treatment from peers/teachers, or Jewish day school where she could be murdered by extremists. (I think he was already more inclined towards public schools)
His concern is because of the increase in attacks on centers of Jewish community (eg schools & synagogues) in Canada. The increase in those attacks is because of Israel’s disproportionate response to the Oct 7th attacks.
The question of Israel’s accountability is probably quite relevant to him.
