Anti-Israel Extremists Praise Terrorism while Protesting Toronto's "Walk with Israel"

(HonestReporting Canada) On May 22, an estimated 20,000 people gathered in North York, Ontario, for the annual "Walk with Israel" celebration. This year, a contingent of anti-Israel protesters came to spew outright expressions of hate. These protesters chanted, "Jihad. Jihad, jihad, Allah Akbar. Long live Hamas.... Long live Hizbullah." Hamas, dedicated to the destruction of Israel through violent means, is recognized as an extremist Islamist terrorist group by the governments of Canada, the U.S., UK, and EU. Hizbullah is a Lebanese Shia Islamist terrorist organization that has launched thousands of rockets into Israeli population centers, killing innocent civilians. The protesters also praised acts of violence against Israelis. "There is only one solution: Intifada, revolution," they chanted. In the Second Intifada between 2000 and 2005, Palestinian individuals and terror groups murdered about 1,000 Israelis in restaurants, discotheques, bus stations, and supermarkets. While anti-Israel activists have the right to protest Israeli actions, that right does not extend to praising terrorist groups and advocating for violence against Israelis.
