Anthony Housefather Speaks Out Against
NDP Motion on Palestinian State Recognition
In a powerful address to the Canadian Parliament, Anthony Housefather, a prominent Canadian MP, expresses his deep-rooted identity as a Canadian, a Jew, and a Zionist, while firmly opposing the NDP's motion to recognize a Palestinian state. Housefather articulates the historical struggles and contributions of the Jewish community in Canada, emphasizing the importance of Zionism and the indigenous connection of Jews to Israel. He passionately argues against equating the democratic state of Israel with the terrorist organization Hamas, highlighting the absurdity and danger of such comparisons.
Housefather's speech sheds light on the current climate of fear and intimidation faced by the Jewish community in Canada, exacerbated by protests targeting Jewish buildings and the spread of anti-Zionist sentiment. He criticizes the motion for potentially deepening the divide and pain within Canadian society, stressing the need for a peace process led by negotiation between Israel and the Palestinians, rather than unilateral recognition that undermines such efforts.
This video captures Housefather's fervent plea for Canadian solidarity with Israel, a democratic ally, in its struggle against terrorism. He underscores the critical importance of supporting Israel's right to defend itself and the imperative to distinguish between a democratic state and a terrorist organization in the pursuit of peace and justice.
