The Jewish National Fund's Canada Park - Canadian cover-up of a war crime

Episode from the CBC's The Fifth Estate, 1992

Website of Dr. Ismail Zayid of Halifax:

I was born in the village of BEIT NUBA, Palestine. BEIT NUBA, together with the neighbouring villages of IMWAS{ Emmaus } and YALU, were occupied and totally bulldozed and demolished, in June 1967,by Israel, on the orders of Yitzhak Rabin, an act which has been rightly described as a war crime. Today, at the site of the ruins of these villages, stands the infamy called "CANADA PARK", built by Canadian tax-deductible dollars.

But they wouldn't know that the remains belong to two neighboring Palestinian villages that existed in the area until the Six Day War in 1967.

 

Saba - Charitable status of the Jewish National Fund in Canada violates CCRA's own standards

...on September 2, 2003, the Canadian Customs and Revenue Agency (“CCRA”) issued a policy statement titled "Registering Charities that Promote Racial Equality Policy Statement."  ...the Jewish National Fund (JNF), which has been deemed by the Attorney General of Israel to practice racial discrimination, and by its own admission does practice racial discrimination, is a racist organization and by so being violates Canada's laws and a stated intent of the CCRA.
