Canadian Zionists Don't Want Children to Learn About Gaza

UPDATE - 16-Feb-2024:

The Canadian Zio-Nazis who wanted to ban books from libraries have backed down. Their attempt at silencing those who oppose their rape of Palestine has failed. 

The "Jewish Public Library" of Montreal has returned Élise Gravel's books to its shelves. [See below for the original story].

Again, how can a public library be Jewish? It should be either a public library or a Jewish library. This is how the Zionists have imposed themselves on their society and keep trying to brainwashing their community into believing their falsehoods and lies.

The "Jewish" library tried to censor Gravel by moving her children's books to closed shelves earlier this month because Gravel criticized the Israeli government's attacks on Gaza. In the Zionist dogma, Israel and the Jewish people are infallible and no one should criticize them and everyone should worship them, when in fact they are regular but arrogant folks whose creation of their Jewish Disneyland - Israel - over the ashes of historic Palestine is perhaps the most gruesome colonialist ethnic cleansing crime perpetrated in the 20th century.

Nevertheless, Gravel maintains that her sharp criticism of  "the government of Israel and their actions," does not amount to antisemitism. "I stand firmly against all forms of discrimination and racism, and of course, against antisemitism. I criticize governments, not populations," she said in a statement.

"I have only compassion and respect for everyone who's affected by this toxic political climate, and am glad that the children who visit the library won't have to pay the price of this division."

Julius Grey, Gravel's lawyer, said they sent a cease-and-desist letter to those who accused the author of being an antisemite, which led to her books being removed in the first place. He says it is contrary to a library's mission to censor writers over political views.

"It's about time to stop conflating criticism of Israel with antisemitism," he said.

"There is obviously a humanitarian crisis on an incredible scale [in Gaza] that all people should be thinking about and trying to find solutions to and we should not be insulting each other or censoring each other," said Grey.

LET THIS EPISODE BE A LESSON TO  ALL THOSE WHO WANT TO SILENCE FREE SPEECH AND CENSOR OPINIONS THEY DISAGREE WITH.

THERE IS A HUGE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ANTISEMITISM (THE HISTORIC HATRED OF JEWS BY EUROPEANS AND WESTERNERS) AND QUESTIONING THE COLONIAL ZIONIST RAPE OF PALESTINE. 

I AM NOT AN ANTI-SEMITE IF I SAY THAT ISRAEL IS AN ANGLO-SAXON COLONY IMPLANTED IN THE NEAR EAST TO SERVE WESTERN INTERESTS (OIL AND TRADE ROUTES) AND THAT ITS MAKING DISPOSSESSED THE PALESTINIAN PEOPLE OF ITS LAND. 

I DON'T CARE IF THE GERMANS KILLED 6 MILLION JEWS; I HAD NO PART IN IT. IT'S NOT MY PROBLEM ANY MORE THAN THE FATE OF THE ROYHINGAS IN BURMA OR THE TUTSIS OF RWANDA OR ANY OTHER PERSECUTED PEOPLE ON EARTH. I FEEL SYMPATHY AND COMPASSION FOR ALL VICTIMS OF BARBARITY, BUT THEY SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO USE THEIR VICTIM STATUS AS A PRETEXT FOR INFLICTING EVEN GREATER MISERY ON OTHER INNOCENT PEOPLE, LIKE THE JEWS DID AND ARE DOING TO THE PALESTINIANS.

I DON'T CARE IF THE JEWS SAY IN THEIR FUCKING 3,000-YEAR OLD BIBLE THAT GOD GAVE THEM THE LAND. IT'S THEIR GOD, NOT MINE. IT'S THEIR SELF-AGGRANDIZING FICTION, NOT MINE, AND NO ONE HAS TO ACCEPT JEWISH BRONZE-AGE FICITION AS FACT IN THIS 21ST CENTURY.

The "anti-semitic" label is used so often and every which way that is has lost any meaning. It is now used as a censorship weapon to silence anyone who tells the simple truth of the Palestinian tragedy perpetrated by Zionist criminals for the past 100 years.

Notice that there is a "Jewish Public Library" in Quebec. Odd that a public institution is tagged with one particular religion. "Public" should be secular, non-religious, inclusive not exclusive. In reality, this "Jewish Public Library" is nothing but a storefront for vicious Zionist propaganda where Canadian children are brainwashed from young age to comply with all the Zionist lies that have been drilled into the brains of a complicit-because-guilty Western population.

Canadian Zionists who run this so-called library are removing books they don't like from their shelves. Who knows? Maybe book burning will catch on next time.

Quebec children's author rejects accusations of antisemitism as books removed from library's shelves

Quebec writer and illustrator Élise Gravel, one of the province's best-known authors of children's literature, has come under fire for her online posts.

Since the Israeli-Palestinian conflict erupted in October, Gravel has voiced her views on social media, accusing the Israeli government of bombing children and oppressing Palestinians — comments that have upset some members of Quebec's Jewish community.

In response, Montreal's Jewish Public Library, apparently in favor of silencing authors it does not agree with, has removed her books from its open shelves. Just like the Nazi Germans did in the 1930s. At the same time, the Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs (CIJA), which represents Jewish federations across the country, has accused her of antisemitism. Of course, what else is new? If you give a cat a choice between "Jewish" food and some other kind of food, and the cat rejects the "Jewish" food, the cat is automatically labeled antisemitic. It's gotten that bad.

But the author isn't backing down and rejects the accusations of intolerance.

The Jewish Public Library told CBC that Gravel is "one of Quebec's most beloved children's book authors" and her work is "widely recognized for her contributions to children's literature."

In a statement, the library said that "while the content of her books is objectively not offensive, we have taken the decision to relocate them from our open shelves to closed stacks." How Nazi of them! In order to gag an author they don't like, the miscreants of that Jewish library covered their heinous censorship act with a typical Nazi "respectable" veneer of "relocating" the books to some dusty corner of the library where nobody ever goes. They just want to prevent anyone from reading what's in the books. Isn't that Big Brother telling people what they should and should not read? Doesn't that obstruct the dissemination of ideas, regardless of whether we like those ideas or not?

Moving the books, the library said, "ensures that the books remain accessible through our catalogue, while also acknowledging the sensitivities surrounding the author's social media posts." Sensitivities, my Canadian ass!

The library does not belong to the city of Montreal.

CIJA's Quebec vice-president, Eta Yudin, says that the author's posts are one-sided.

"We didn't hear her talk about the barbarism, the rape, the hostages taken on Oct. 7th," she said. But Ms. Yudin, we didn't hear you talk about the ongoing 4-month-long barbarity of the carnage, genocide and indiscriminate killing of tens of thousands of children in Gaza by Jewish soldiers! 

Yudin also says Gravel is spreading falsehoods and engaging in antisemitic tropes, conspiracy theories and myths.

"People are very upset with what they're seeing in her illustrations and in her posts that clearly cross the line, whether intentionally or not … the kind of material that fuels antisemitism," said Yudin. Again, the antisemitism scarecrow which most Westerners have been brainwashed to fear by decades of lies for the sake of elevating one religious group above others and shielding it against any criticism. The conclusion of all this charlatanism is: Jews are an infallible people. You either accept it, never criticize them, and conform and comply with the dictates of the Zionist Big Brother, or we'll slap a yellow star on your vest that says "antisemite".

On social media networks like Facebook and X, formerly known as Twitter, CIJA disapproved of the use of the word "they" in one of Gravel's posts that the group says read "They are convinced that we are okay with their idea to exterminate the Palestinians, like vermin. Even children, even newborns."

Gravel has since changed the first "they" to "Netanyahu and his allies" in what she said in the comments below the post was a clarification "because people are always trying to find a hateful meaning in every one of my posts," adding that she was not speaking about a specific religious or ethnic group committing violence.

Author stands by her words

Gravel told CBC she will continue to speak out, despite what she calls attempts to silence her.

Montreal-based civil rights lawyer Julius Grey is representing Gravel. Grey told CBC he and his client are taking legal action — not against the library but "the individuals who have been harassing her" and making "personal accusations."

Gravel says she has received death threats because of her online comments.

''The fact that I'm very vocal about my support for the Palestinian cause seems to upset many people," she said.

Describing herself as an activist, Gravel says that her support for transgender children also opened her up to criticism.

This morning, a post on Gravel's Instagram account defended her position. "No, my posts are not antisemitic. I criticize the Israeli government, their political agenda and their extreme violence," the post reads.

"I stand firmly against any form of discrimination and racism, including antisemitism," the post goes on to read. "The Israeli government does not represent the views of every Jew on the planet. Criticizing the state of Israel is not antisemitic."

A Nov. 12 post reads, "Don't blame the Jews. Blame Netanyahu."

Others describe the expulsion of Palestinians from their homes when Israel was created in 1948.

Some posts use the words "apartheid" and"genocide" to describe Israeli policies toward Palestinians.

In a statement, the Quebec Public Library Association (ABPQ) told CBC that it did not know enough about the situation to comment but said "Quebec's public libraries defend intellectual freedom."

Quebec's public libraries "reject all forms of censorship, whether ideological, political, religious or driven by commercial pressures," the ABPQ said.

Ericka Alneus, Montreal city councillor for Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie, also rejects censorship.

"As we speak today, Élise Gravel's books are still in our libraries and they will remain in our libraries," said Alneus, who is responsible for culture and heritage at the city.

Despite sensitivities around the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Alneus said that libraries need to express a diversity of points of view, even if some members of society disagree or find the issue at hand "uncomfortable."

"It is our job to make sure that freedom of expression and freedom of creation remain," she said.
