For Immediate Release: April 23, 2021
On April 4th, 2017, a 65 year old retired French physician and teacher was beaten, stabbed and tortured, then thrown off her 3rd storey balcony. Her name was Dr. Sarah Halimi and she was murdered because she was Jewish. Her killer, Kobil Traore’ was a Jew hating drug dealer who already had 22 convictions against him. The French High court has since ruled that he cannot stand trial because he was high on marijuana.
THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND NOT THE FIRST TIME THE FRENCH COURTS HAVE RULED AGAINST JEWS AND CRIMES AGAINST JEWS. People of conscience and decency do not accept this travesty of justice any further.
ON: SUNDAY APRIL 25TH 2021 AT 11 A.M.
PEOPLE OF CONSCIENCE WILL GATHER IN FRONT OF THE FRENCH CONSULATE IN TORONTO AT THE CORNER OF BLOOR AND YONGE STREET TO TELL FRANCE: NON!/NO!
We will join communities around the world, including Paris, Marseille, London, New York City, Miami, Los Angeles and Tel Aviv to tell the world:
