Hamood Al-Waili, a known pro-Palestinian activist, was arrested at a Toronto Jewish Community Centre (JCC) after refusing to remove his keffiyeh, a symbol that many view as emblematic of extremist rhetoric, which led to a confrontation with security personnel. The incident, captured on video, shows Al-Waili being escorted out of the facility.

Following his arrest, a series of Al-Waili’s social media posts have surfaced, revealing deeply disturbing antisemitic sentiments. In these posts, he references burning Jews alive and expresses admiration for Adolf Hitler. One post reads, “If it wasn’t for my man Hitler, you f***ing termites would be all over the place.” Another states, “When Jehad is declared, and this is not a threat, I will personally come looking for every one of you Jewish motherf***ers.”
The discovery of these posts has sparked outrage within the Jewish community and among pro-Israel advocates, who are calling for a thorough investigation and appropriate legal action against Al-Waili. Community leaders emphasize the importance of addressing such hate speech promptly to ensure the safety and security of all citizens.
Authorities are currently examining the posts to determine the extent of the threat posed by Al-Waili. The incident underscores the growing concern over the rise of antisemitic rhetoric and threats, both online and in public spaces.
He’s not a threat – he’s a little bitch. Just like all the anti-israel crowd…
This POS needs to be thrown in jail for the rest of his life. Either that or deported, he doesn’t deserve to live in Canada.
