(JNS) Jewish groups in Canada are decrying an Arabic-language magazine and human-rights organization for two separate incidents of anti-Israel activity.
B’nai Brith Canada has called for the Canadian government to “dissolve” the not-for-profit corporation “Canadian Defenders for Human Rights” after that group’s leader, Firas al-Najim, was caught on film in Arabic praising the terrorist groups Hamas and Hezbollah, and chanting “Death to America.”
Al-Najim made his remarks during a small rally outside the U.S. consulate in Toronto on Jan. 2 to mark the anniversary of the death of Maj. Gen. Qassem Soleimani, head of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps’ Quds Force, who was assassinated last year in a U.S. drone strike.
