BIGOTTED AND WARPED LOGIC The TTCs incredible explanation [for the removal of this ad] was that the maps and accompanying text could incite violence or hatred against Jews. In what universe is exposing human rights violations incitement of violence? The TTC seems to have adopted wholeheartedly bigoted stereotypes against Arabs and Muslims, regardless of how straightforward and factual their speech. According to the TTC, it is not Israels ethnic cleansing that is violent, but rather showing a map of the results of that ethnic cleansing. I hope the TTC will reconsider this unsupportable position. - Rima Najjar Kapitan in a letter of protest to TTC, The Toronto Transit Commission (TTC), which has rejected a group’s bus ad showing Israel’s expropriation of Palestinian land over time, claiming the ad could incite anti-Jewish discrimination and violence.
