100 Synagogues and Jewish institutions get bomb threats – but you wouldn’t know it from CTV UPDATES

100 Synagogues and Jewish institutions get bomb threats

THIS is a crime. Not a hate crime, a crime and a large scale one. Any judge worthy of dry cleaning his robes would factor in motive to the sentence should the state bother to track this down and lay appropriate charges.

Montreal synagogues on Canada-wide list of threatened Jewish institutions

Montreal police (SPVM) says at least a dozen synagogues in Montreal are on a list of more than 100 places of worship across Canada that received a threatening email Wednesday morning.

The force received a 911 call at 7:10 a.m. about the email, which was received at 5 a.m., and officers are currently onsite at Adath Israel Poale Zedek Anshei Ozeroff on Harrow Crescent in Hampstead.

So far, the force says it has not found any reasonable threat.

“The premise was checked inside and outside. No threats were found, nothing was found,” said Montreal police spokesperson Sabrina Gauthier. “We will complete an analysis of the email.”

Rabbi Michael Whitman tells CTV News that morning services were halted at 6:30 a.m. following the threats. About 15 people were evacuated from the building.

Whitman says synagogue members will receive updates on the situation. For now, he says the institution remains open.

Gauthier confirms officers are also checking for potential threats at other Jewish establishments across the city.

The force says it is consulting with its hate crime squad, and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) is now in charge of the investigation.

As usual reading CTV, the reader is forced to decode it to try and figure out WTF it actually means. How do police search for “a threat” exactly. CTV in fact does not include materials that they clearly are likely to have had at the time of publication. Materials like this:

Whole image of communication:

Meanwhile, we can hope that the police have more specific information than just “threats” to look for.

UPDATE:

RCMP tweets in which they manage to say as little as CTV:

I believe the hospitals were entirely Jewish ones. But can’t confirm that from the RCMP tweets. I wonder why that is. They also seem to make moral equivalence between all faith based leaders, as if for instance, hypothetically mosques had all been targeted, or if Islam had any actual hospitals, they were targeted.

    • If there was one, I sure as hell would!

      The tragedy is I am really failing the Hindus of Bangladesh who are experiencing a real genocide at the hands of the Muslims there.

      Pretty much like all people and religions wherever Muslims conquer.

      Ever wonder why Afghanistan so had many 100 foot high Buddha statues carved into the side of the mountains before the Taliban blew them up? It wasn’t the Muslims who made them, that’s for damn sure.
