ISRAEL-HAMAS WAR
Anti-Israel demonstrators gathered at the Montreal home of Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly on Jan. 13 over Canada’s stance on the Israel-Hamas war.
The protest outside Ms. Joly’s home came just one day after she issued a government statement saying that Ottawa’s “unwavering support for international law” does not mean it accepts “the premise of the case brought by South Africa,” which accuses Israel of genocide before the International Court of Justice (ICJ).
Approximately three-dozen protesters showed up at Ms. Joly’s home the morning of Jan. 13 shouting pro-Palestinian slogans and accusing her of complicity in the alleged “genocide.”
The protestors set up a Concordia Student Union tent, held signs that said “Mourn the dead, fight like hell for the living,” and used a loudspeaker to make speeches and sing.
