A Muslim group has slammed so-called anti-hate leader Bernie Farber “for alleged support of ‘racist Zionist policies.” Of course, reasonable and informed people know that Zionism is not racism, but this story is significant given who Bernie Farber is, considering his history of tormenting those who fight against injustice and advance human rights and equal rights for all.
Bernie Farber is a self-described “social justice advocate,” and is a well-known water-carrier for the National Council of Canadian Muslims (CAIR-CAN). He acrimoniously dismissed Canada Christian College as “Bible-thumping, ultra-conservative evangelicals.” Now he has a taste of what it feels like to be the target of his own bigotry.
The “Islamophobia” pusher Bernie paints himself as a leader in “anti-hate” initiatives. He has, in fact, named his own organization the Canadian Anti-Hate Network, and “received a start-up grant from the SPLC” (Southern Poverty Law Center), which has ties to violent Antifa thugs, and has suffered gross embarrassment stemming from internal accusations of racism and sexism.
Meanwhile, Farber aggressively and contemptuously bullied a Toronto rabbi out of hosting a conference on Canadian rule of law because of certain speakers (including me) whom he deemed to be “Islamophobic.” This prompted Toronto activist Vivienne Ziner to write an article explaining the deplorable sequence of events in the Times of Israel, reprinted in Frontpage Magazine, entitled: A Treatise on Canadian Democracy and its Current Challenges.
The SPLC and other far-Left groups such as Bernie Farber’s so-called Anti-Hate Network levy unfounded accusations and paint targets on the backs of innocent people — with no consequences.
Now get this:

Who is Bernie Farber? The Muslim Community in Canada should know who this man is. He’s been trying to build relations with the Muslim community in Canada, but not everyone is familiar with his background and his efforts to undermine the concerns of the Palestinian community in Canada. Farber markets himself as an “anti-racist” and “friend” of Muslims in Canada. However, he is an adamant supporter of racist Zionist policies and has repeatedly gone after Canadian-Jewish activists who defend Palestine.
Now Bully Bernie himself stands accused. He has clearly failed to please the Islamic supremacists he has worked so hard to please. Up to now, the vicious game of identity politics has been lucrative. How will he respond to the accusation from the United Dawah Organizations of Canada, which accuse him as “an adamant supporter of racist Zionist policies” who “has repeatedly gone after Canadian-Jewish activists who defend Palestine”? The organization actually makes him out to be an “Islamophobe” and a “racist,” just like he wrongly does to others (including me).
Appeasing Islamic supremacists and stealth jihadists will always backfire on useful idiots.
