They lie. They lie about you can see with your own eyes. And then they lie some more.

After the Muslim and Marxist riots in Montreal, even the Trudeau government had to admit the obvious.

One minute before noon on Saturday, Justin Trudeau, the Canadian prime minister, acknowledged an antisemitic riot the night before. “What we saw on the streets of Montreal last night was appalling. Acts of antisemitism, intimidation and violence must be condemned wherever we see them,” he stated.

“The Royal Canadian Mounted Police are in communication with local police,” he added. “There must be consequences, and rioters held accountable.”

The local police, you say?

Chief Fady Dagher, a Lebanese Arab immigrant, is the first ‘diverse’ chief of the force, and he denies everything.

Asked if he has confidence in the Montreal police, Legault said he’s expecting far more than the three arrests announced to date. “So until proven otherwise, we have confidence in the (police), but I expect there to be action in the coming days,” he said.

Action? Good luck with that.

Montreal police Chief Fady Dagher told The Canadian Press that police are working to arrest other violent protesters. But he said most of the participants wore masks, which makes it harder to identify them.

Uh-huh.

Dagher said those responsible are part of an “extreme-left group,” known to police for the last 20 years, that had “nothing to do” with pro-Palestinian protesters who attended the demonstration on Friday. He would not name the group, however.

The rally was literally convened by anti-Israel activists.

The protest, which attracted about 800 people, was organized by the group Divest for Palestine and a Montreal anti-capitalist group, known as CLAC, which opposes NATO in part because of its support for Israel.

Fady is going with the story that everything was fine until Antifa showed up, but Antifa is pro-Palestinian and its members come out of movements like these, and the rioters were waving PLO flags.

Why did they think they could get away with it? Ask Fady, whose force arrested only 3 of the rioters, but did manage to threaten to arrest a Jewish man for filming them.
