       Security worries mount in Canada as ex-Hamas chief calls for
       protests. What to know
       --- Quote ---
       >
       >
       > A call for demonstrations across the Muslim world Friday in
       support of Palestinians is causing security worries among Jewish
       organizations in Canada.
       >
       >
       > Meshaal, who currently heads Hamas’ diaspora office and is
       based in Qatar, issued the protest call in a recorded statement
       sent to Reuters Wednesday.
       >
       > “(We must) head to the squares and streets of the Arab and
       Islamic world on Friday,” he said, adding the governments and
       peoples of Jordan, Syria, Lebanon and Egypt have a bigger duty
       to support the Palestinians.
       >
       > “Tribes of Jordan, sons of Jordan, brothers and sisters of
       Jordan… This is a moment of truth and the borders are close to
       you, you all know your responsibility,” Meshaal said.
       >
       > Jordan, east of Israel, and Lebanon, to the north, are home to
       the largest number of Palestinian refugees.
       >
       > “To all scholars who teach jihad… to all who teach and learn,
       this is a moment for the application (of theories),” Meshaal
       said.
       >
       > Meshaal’s protest call has sparked worry among Jewish
       organizations in Canada. During the Thanksgiving long weekend,
       several demonstrations occurred across the country in support of
       Palestinians, which raised concerns from premiers, mayors and
       law enforcement about how to handle any show of support for
       Hamas.

       served as prime minister from 1984 to 1993. He was in office

       tumultuous few weeks in which she was criticized for calling for
       an end to the “Israeli apartheid” and the occupation of
       Palestinian land.

       Canada's defence minister says Hamas a threat to world, must be
       'eliminated'

       > "I have no expectation that a terrorist organization would
       respect international law or any call for a ceasefire," Blair
       told reporters in Ottawa before headed into the Liberal cabinet
       meeting on Tuesday.
       >
       > Calls for a ceasefire in the latest Israel-Hamas war --
       including a temporary one, referred to by some as a "pause," to
       allow in more aid -- have grown in recent days as humanitarian
       organizations warn of a major crisis in the Gaza Strip.
       >
       > But on Tuesday morning, Blair went further than that, saying
       that as long as Hamas exists, it is a threat to Israel.
       >
       > "I think (Israel has) a right to defend themselves against
       that terror threat," he told reporters on his way into the
       cabinet meeting. "And quite frankly, Hamas has to be eliminated
       as a threat, not just to Israel but to the world."
       >
       > Bob Rae, Canada's ambassador to the United Nations, has also
       called for the destruction of Hamas.
       >
       > "Any organization like this has to be destroyed," Rae wrote on
       X, the social media platform previously known as Twitter, last
       Thursday.
       >
       > "And no one should condone or excuse or underplay or deny.
       Dealing with it will require determination and strategy," Rae
       continued.
       >
       > But Blair is the first Liberal cabinet minister to suggest
       Hamas must be "eliminated."
