Union motion to debate Israel brings 'hate into the classroom': B'nai Brith head OSSTF's Toronto district approves debate request by 2 teachers A decision approving a request by two Toronto high school teachers to have a union debate on whether to condemn Israel's treatment of Palestinians has come under fire by B'nai Brith and the Jewish Defence League. B'nai Brith is part of the Israel lobby, which regularly calls for the Canadian State to censor or arrest those who oppose the State of Israel. Pressure like this led to the successfull lobbying effort to censor the play about Rachel Corre. And the Jewish Defense League is not a human rights group but a known terrorist organization. Kettle, pot, black.
