How Canada’s Indigenous Story is Being Twisted to Spread Antisemitism
Over the past few years, anti‑Israel and antisemitic activists have increasingly wrapped themselves in the language of Indigenous struggle, borrowing the symbols, vocabulary, and moral authority of Indigenous peoples to advance a political agenda that has little to do with Indigenous rights and even less to do with historical truth.
Harry LaForme: I stood on my ancestral land and said what Carney would not
I stand before you on the land of my ancestors to say what the prime minister should have said: “Anti-Zionism is a libel-driven hate movement that incites violence and the targeting, exclusion, and marginalization of Jews in the diaspora and has as its ultimate goal wiping Israel off the face of Mother Earth and the death of all beings within it.”
How Palestinian Academics Inflame and Distort the history of 1948 and the Present
Mansour’s presentation, “Structure of Erasure – Past and Present: Settler Colonialism in Palestine” predictably consisted of a carefully curated one-sided tale of Palestinian victimhood buttressed by cherry picked quotes and devoid of historical or geo-political context.
Palestinian Christian Antizionism: A Series
Two Palestinian academics, Dr Lamma Mansour and Dr Yousef Kamal AlKhoury are currently touring New Zealand for a series of talks, held mostly in Anglican churches, but also in at least one university. They have been presenting one-sided, heavily truncated accounts of the complex Israel-Palestinian conflict. While we acknowledge their right to tell their story, we believe the lack of context and historical depth presents a false, distorted and harmful picture. This is the first in a series of articles that will address these concerns.
How do we forget those who lifted us?: Nova Peris makes the case against antisemitism
Former Senator and Olympic gold medallist Nova Peris has submitted a deeply personal and historically grounded submission to the Royal Commission into Antisemitism and Social Cohesion, arguing that the rise of antisemitism in Australia represents not only a threat to Jewish Australians but a profound challenge to the nation’s democratic values and social cohesion.
If you are Indigenous, you are a Zionist
If you support indigenous people's rights, you should also be a Zionist. Because Zionism is the national liberation movement of an indigenous people who never truly left their land, and who finally came home. If you are Indigenous, you are a Zionist. You just may not have known it yet.
Resonances between Jews and Indigenous Peoples
Dr Sheree Trotter spoke at the Beit Tikvah Synagogue in Toronto about the Resonances between Jews and Indigenous peoples.
When Antizionism Becomes the Respectable Language of Antisemitism
The Bondi Commission matters beyond Australia because it exposes how ancient Jew-hatred now borrows the vocabulary of human rights, decolonisation, and social justice.

Oh Jerusalem: An Iranian perspective
As someone from the Middle East, I have long felt an inexplicable pull toward Jerusalem without fully understanding why. There is something about this land; so layered with stories and so ancient that draws one to the very essence and roots of the region.
The Lands Between Us
In September 2025 a delegation of Indigenous leaders from Canada visited Israel, supported by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and organised by International Christian Embassy Jerusalem, Canada. This video, produced by Crystal Clear Productions captures that journey.
Stop Trivialising the Use of ‘Genocide’
Harry LaForme challenges the trivialization of the word ‘genocide’. “Is it simply a case of wilful ignorance that prompts the use of such phrases, or is it that genocide has simply become the descriptive word defining any war? Or is it exclusive to Israel and military action it undertakes in its defence?”

Holocaust Commemoration: The Stories and the Silence
Maya Simon tells the story of her remarkable grandmother. As a 15 year old, she was attacked by Nazis and thrown into the icy river, where she almost died. There and then she determined that she did not belong any more in Czechoslovakia and would go to live in Israel. A year passed before parents relented and allowed her to travel to Israel, where she began a new life on her own.
Anzac Series Collaboration
Debunking the lie that Israel desecrated ANZAC war graves in Gaza. That is not what happened.
The IDF constructed a defensive earth barrier (a berm) after identifying Hamas terror tunnel infrastructure and rocket positions in and around the Gaza War cemetery. Palestinian terrorists had used the site to launch attacks on Israeli soldiers from its vicinity.
Algemeiner: Indigenous Zionism Is Peoplehood Zionism
Labour Zionism, Religious Zionism, Political Zionism, Practical Zionism, Cultural Zionism, Christian Zionism, Revisionist Zionism, and more. What most have in common is the conviction that the Jewish people have an ineradicable connection to the Land of Israel. Enter Indigenous Zionism: a Zionism that recognizes that such connection is an indigenous bond…
Conceptions of Jewish Indigeneity in Zionist Thought and Politics
“Jews are indigenous to the land not metaphorically or sentimentally, but biologically and historically,” said Deych, bluntly adding, “the anti-Zionist fantasy that Jews are foreign interlopers or descendants of medieval steppe nomads belongs in the same category as flat-earth cosmology.”
Indigenous Zionism at Concordia University
Some time ago, scholars gathered in Montreal, Canada, to discuss “Jewish conceptions of indigeneity in Zionist thought”—that is, Zionist indigeneity and its Jewish roots (rather than the fabricated indigeneity of supposed “non-Jewish Israelis” or various “Canaanites”). They discussed the genuine indigeneity of a continuous and ancient Jewish people that was uprooted, exiled, and returned twice; a people that, until its return, maintained for centuries an indigenous attachment to the Land of Israel—like other indigenous peoples who survived and aspire to return.
Confronting the Lies
Palestinian activists claim modern Israel uses Hebrew place names as a tool of colonial power. According to writers like Mitri Raheb and Nur Masalha, renaming the land is part of a settler-colonial strategy to erase Palestinian history. Linguist Dr Michael Wechsler demonstrates that the historical evidence points in the opposite direction.
Debunking the Khazar Theory
The Khazar theory is currently being propagated by Candace Owens, Tucker Carlson and others. Dr Michael G Wechsler is a linguist, historian and Bible scholar. He filmed this rebuttal of the Khazar theory in Jerusalem's Old City.
Māori Delegation to Israel: Hearts & Minds Changed
In November 2025, Yifat Goddard, an Israeli citizen of New Zealand led a delegation of Māori leaders on a trip to Israel. The invitation to come and see the reality led to an eye-opening trip that impacted hearts and minds.
