Your tax dollars at work....Come commemorate the Nakba

At the 1st ever Toronto Palestine Film Festival courtesy of The Toronto Arts Council, and the Ontario Arts Council.

About The TPFF:

As conceived by Palestine House, the Festival is an important component of the year-long activities commemorating the 60th Anniversary of the Nakba. Cinema represents a powerful means for visually interpreting the collective identity and historic struggle of the Palestinian people. The Festival will present in film the extraordinary narrative of a dispossessed people living in exile or under Israeli occupation.

Does it need to be said that my tax dollars should not be funding overtly political causes in the name of Art?

Yeah, why should we fund any arts content here in Canada? I mean, wouldn't it be better if we just gave up and fully immersed ourself in American culture anyhow? At least no white people are offended by According To Jim.

Arts funding is a waste of tax payers money. Canadian culture is strong enough to survive without subsidies. All funding has accomplished is the nourishment of mediocrity.

Hmmm is there a Kisok at the event for converting to Islam ?

This kind of gradualist proselytizing is covered in "the Project".
Read it some time and count the number of successes the brotherhood has had in its soft jihad.

So, let's get this straight: both the Ontario and Toronto taxpayer gets to support another round of jihadist Jew-hatred under the guise of the so-called "nakba".

Nothing would give the so-called "Palestinians" (aka Jordyptians) and their fellow traveller useful idiots in the Toronto Arts Council ad the Ontario arts Council greater relief than replacing the democratic, pluralistic State of Israel with yet-another failed, autocratic Islamic "republic".

Pathetic. Just pathetic. Am Yisroel Chai!
