Depends on the posts actually, and looking at what this guy posted
From river to the sea Palestine will be free = genocide/expel all Jews in-between
Propagation of fake news of the hospital attack which has conclusively been proven to be a Hamas/Islamic Jihad malfunctioning rocket.
Justifying murder of civilians, men, women, children, kidnapping of people because people were “oppressed”
Seems like justified.
Imagine someone posting about “From Ganges to Arabian Sea, India will be free”, or something similar implying expelling/killing of Muslims, they’d be fired from their job in the blink of an eye. How’d you feel about that? So why is this jew hatred to be tolerated?
Add to this that he was suspended (not jailed) and the country’s major public broadcaster posted this very article questioning the appropriateness of his suspension. He has a voice in the public media and also an opportunity to avail himself of the court system and seek damages. Are we still a democracy? Yeah, sounds like it to me.
Thank you for speaking up. I’m Jewish and have family in Israel that have been affected by the October 7 terror attack. My heart breaks for the innocent Palestinians caught between and can’t get out and who have only ever known conflict. My heart also breaks for the Israelis who are subject to terror inflicted by Hamas. This is not like Russia invading Ukraine. This conflict is messy and there is no clear good guy or bad guy.
People are so quick to jump to conclusions (just look at the parent comment here, highly upvoted and claiming that Canada is locking people up for wrongthink). All this knee-jerk reactionary rhetoric spells is more firebombed synagogues, shootings on Jewish schools, and open acceptance of antisemitism since people at large cannot distinguish Jews from Israel (as the parent comment was not even able to do, and they outwardly claim they don’t even have a dog in this fight. No dog, but very quick to jump to conclusions and extremes).
The way we jump on this particular issue and make assumptions seems off to me as well. The comparison to Russia/Ukraine is apt as Russia very much attempted genocide against Ukrainians in the past (Holodomor) and their current actions similar involve many atrocities, yet - while we have done some things in regards to sanctions etc - very little seems to come up regarding the fairly obvious spouting of Russian propaganda etc.
Ditto, where’s the jumping on idiots driving around with shit like Confederate flags?
I’ve heard excuses like “they don’t really understand” or “it’s complicated” for the lack of consequences, but then we have this particular phrase which seems to just be a lightning rod.
This isn’t to say that that what’s happening isn’t terrible, but why is the reaction so much different versus other terribly things?
(And no I’m not trying to hint at some grand Jewish conspiracy or that sort of bullshit, though maybe it’s politicians with their lips planted more firmly on some asses than others)

Suspended pending investigation not outright suspended
