No one wished me a happy Canada Day on the 1st :( the Americans get all the attention lol

Hmmmm.... I wonder why :)
Canadians have a lot to learn from their southern neighbor about how to remain on the right side of history and humanity, and realize who their ally truly is.
Personally, I wish you happy days regardless of dates.

That's pretty offensive. I don't appreciate that at all. Don't judge my country based on the hateful bigots, and don't judge my country based on retaliating to aggression from Trump and his government. He threatened to annex my country. My comment was lighthearted and playful. Your comment is incredibly insensitive, inappropriate, patronizing, condescending, and disrespectful. Who are you to lecture me and speak down to me like that, completely unprompted? You judge me and all my countrymen based on my government and the bigots? I could just as easily do the same to Americans, but I don't, because the inhabitants of a country aren't a monolith, and no government, nor can any individual completely represent an entire nation. Despite you and I seemingly sharing values, I don't deserve the same respect as an American? My opinions don't matter as much as an American's? Hell, my feelings don't matter as much as an American's? If I made a comment as disrespectful, arrogant, and ignorant as yours, I would certainly be ashamed of myself.

I'm a Jew. I'm a Zionist. But I'm also a Canadian, and I'm damn proud of it, as an American would be, and as an Israeli would be. Is Canada perfect? No. Are there hateful people here? Absolutely. Just like there are in Israel. Just like there are in droves in the United States. Just like in any country. When you blatantly disrespect Canada like you did, you're disrespecting me. You're disrespecting my family, my friends, and all Canadian allies who are fighting the good fight. So it's great to know how little you think of me based on where I was born and raised. This same mindset is what drives people to hate all Israelis and Jews based on fringe extremists and the government.

In closing, since my grandparents are no longer with us, nor are my great-grandparents, uncles, aunts, and cousins who fled persecution in Europe and Mandatory Palestine to build a life for themselves, their children, and myself in Canada, I'd like to ask on their behalf: how dare you, and who the hell do you think you are? I'm glad to hear you "wish me happy days regardless of dates". I hope that extends to Canada Day, which is important to me as a Jewish Canadian, and just as important as American Independence Day. Personally, I hope that wisdom graces you one day.

Edit: This probably isn't the polite, stereotypical Canadian response you expected from watching American cartoons, so I'll end it with this: Smarten up. Buddy.

Am Yisrael Chai, long live the true north, and elbows up.

With respect, I do not see anything offensive in what SDL wrote. In fact, he actually didn't go far enough.
You want offensive? How about this: if Canada betrays Israel and recognises an imaginary 'Palestinian' state, then by doing so they prove they cannot be trusted as a responsible player on the world stage. Canada will lose a lot. If that happens, it would be better for everyone if the USA takes over. Far better than the alternative: silently but surely being taken over by Canada's beloved new terroristic 'friends,' which is what is happening now.

Any 'Palestinian' state would definitely become a haven for terrorism, just like the Gazan state before it.
So, exactly as SDL wrote, Canada should indeed learn from the USA how to stand with Israel. If Canada doesn't, then I'm terribly sorry, but I cannot care about snowflake Canadians' offense at words when their actions physically offend my people. If you support Canada at a time when Canada threatens Israel by recognising that evil, murderous, imaginary national movement, which is rotten to its core and is no more than a death cult, then you support an enemy of Israel. It's beyond me how one can then declare himself to be pro-Israel.

We in Israel are fighting for our lives here!!! against your enemies too, who beheaded our compatriots, burned babies alive, and filmed it for the world to see... while your treacherous country betrays us and decides to give the prize of recognition to this 'Palestinian' death cult that murders our friends and families. What the **** do you expect?

I support Canada because I'm a f**king Canadian. Sure, things could be a whole lot better, but I'm not abandoning my f**king home country. How dare you say we should be taken over? You are affirming that despite being a zionist, despite being a Jew, despite being an ally of Israel, that I don't deserve respect because I'm a Canadian, and I shouldn't be proud of being a Canadian. I'm floored by the complete childishness you've shown. I'm not gonna stop supporting Canada. It's my home. I wouldn't expect an American to advocate for the elimination of their sovereignty because Trump is in office, nor would I expect an Israeli to do the same because of Netanyahu, so how dare you do the same? Like I didn't vote for Poilievre? Like I didn't do everything in my power to elect a pro-Israel government? You should be ashamed of yourself for making such generalizations. Insulting every Canadian Jew, Zionist, and ally because of the government. Disrespecting them, discarding them, just like people do to Israelis because of generalizations based on the government. Newsflash: the government doesn't represent the opinion of every f**king person. So yeah, if being Canadian means I don't deserve respect in this region, despite sharing the same damned values, I'm out, because in that case, this region is a joke and so are you. Enjoy your increasing isolation because the only people you respect are Israelis and Americans who lick Trump and Bibi's boots. What a sad way to live. I'm genuinely really sorry for you.

Since you've clearly gone insane and want me to completely abandon my country and advocate for its destruction, everyone who has a brain who is currently in this region is welcome to coordinate with me on creating an inclusive Zionist region run by adults, where the concept of nuance isn't dead and buried.

Every Hamas leader. Anywhere. Anytime. Is and will be a target.
And if not today, tomorrow.

In Memory of Charlie Kirk

We are shocked and devastated by the brutal murder of Charlie Kirk. His unique voice, his deep and genuine bond with Israel touched countless lives, and his voice was one of friendship, solidarity, and shared destiny.

The people of Israel, and all Jerusalemites, mourn with heavy hearts. This murder is an act of pure evil. We stand shoulder to shoulder with America’s youth and with the entire American public in their grief.

May his memory be a blessing.

שלום

Late Happy Hanukkah to everyone, and Merry Christmas to others!

ברוך אתה ה' אלהינו מלך העולם, שהחיינו! וקיימנו! והגיענו לזמן הזה!
No more hostages in Gaza, thank G-d.
And thank President trump and his team, for putting pressure on Qatar and Egypt to use their leverage on the islamist terrorists and bring this chapter to an end, without any further vital concessions by Israel. Now the time has come for these barbaric punks to disarm and dissolve, so that a new era of restoration and prosperity can begin.

And yes: it is also time for the head of the octopus, the main source of evil in the Middle East: the islamic republic of Iran, to be confronted, crashed and dismantled, by the freedom loving peoples.

And thank you, the American people, for standing with us, and for electing President Trump, which made this outcome possible.
