Canada’s federal police have launched a criminal investigation into several IDF soldiers who also hold Canadian citizenship, on suspicion of crimes against humanity allegedly committed during their military service, Canadian media reported Tuesday.
The report, first published by the Toronto Star, marks the first time Canadian authorities have formally opened a war crimes investigation against dual Israeli-Canadian nationals. The move has triggered concern and controversy within Canada’s Jewish and Israeli communities.
According to the report, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) are investigating Canadian citizens who served in the IDF, whether in active duty or as reservists, during the war in Gaza. The probe reportedly began in 2024 but remained under wraps until now. It could include evidence collection, information sharing with international bodies and potentially even indictments on Canadian soil.
Jewish community voices concern: ‘Canada is becoming more hostile toward us by the day’
What kind of a shitty excuse for a human thinks war crime investigations are “hostility”?
Zionists.
Maybe don’t support genocide, or you know why not just move to Israel. No need for hostility of Israel Nazis living comfortable in peaceful lands.
Nazis crying they are being accused of the war crimes they are doing.
Shh, calling genocidal right wing extremists “nazis” makes the genocidal right wing extremists (ie. nazis) angry
Well first they came for the war criminals and no one spoke up.
A third said it’s causing Israeli families to reconsider sending their children to serve in Israel as lone soldiers
It’s already working as intended! I’m glad to see that there is accountability for Canadians who go out of their way to participate in war crimes and crimes against humanity
The “concerns” are ridiculous. Anyone not involved in war crimes has absolutely nothing to fear.
The move has triggered concern and controversy within Canada’s Jewish and Israeli communities.
They’re concerned that some Canadians may have committed war crimes, right?
Jewish communities are not monolithic. This, like the genocide itself, is a wedge issue. People are being forced to confront the reality and scope of these past 20 months, and the occupation writ large.
Let justice be swift and certain.
Killing children, hospital patients, doctors, humanitarian aid workers, journalists and people who are just trying not to starve in Gaza are not behaviours we can tolerate as Canadians, so we should investigate if our dual-citizens took part in it. If not, then it’s fine.
Does being Israeli or Jewish make you immune from investigation or prosecution for anything now? Is that what these people think?
According to them, anytime they don’t get exactly what they want it’s persecution on their faith so…
YEAH!!! Finally!!!
Another small but positive step. Keep going, Canada. There are many more steps to take to get on the right side of this.
I wonder if this is why I have been seeing all about the Canadian war crimes back in WWII. That took off like a tinder box.
Poison the well before this report is completed
Some people have been thinking it’ll deter the Americans from invading.
I mean, I have doubts on that.
Kinda. We’ve been hearing about our WW2 misdeeds quite a bit. There is probably multiple reasons, none good, as the narrative seems to be “Canadians aren’t good”.
Lol fuck around and find out
That’s seriously cool but we all know that they just use them as scapegoat while true top war criminals ruling israel are safe from all acountablity
Scapegoat? Canada has no jurisdiction in Israel, they can only deal with Canadians and that is what they do.
canada.can impose sanctions on israel government you know and stop lying about not helping israel
Some people won’t be happy until Canada has boots on the ground and starts knocking down buildings in Tel Aviv.
Not really. Just like Canada put Hamas in the terrorist list they should add the IDF to the terrorist list. Just like they are imposing severe sanctions on Russia and Iran they should sanctions Israel severely. Instead of pretending to stop aiding Israel military they should actually do it
I agree with doing that, but there are lots of unironic “from the river to the sea” people out there.
Yes there is many people who want palestinians to not be oppresed in gaza, west bank and israel
Wiping Israel from the map is technically a way to stop Palestinians from “being oppressed in Israel”, but it isn’t a good one.
It’s a way to stop the oppression in the entire region in general. Including Lebanon and Syria. And stabilizing the region entirely.
Israel never was a legitimate country to begin with. It was founded on genocide. And recent actions from their government and its zionist zealots have further deligitimized it.
Besides, you can’t have a true democracy if you’re going to be a theo / ethno nationalist country.
I mean maybe the medicine they need to realize… Lol ,wait NVM, them realize they are the baddies now is not gonna happen.
