Hate Crimes: The Real Story

Barry Rubin surveys the data from Canada and comes to a conclusion that is by no means surprising:

Now the figures for “hate crimes” in Canada have been issued, and guess what? Like the FBI’s statistics for the United States, the number one victims of hate crimes are…Jews. Indeed, 71 percent of the hate crimes in the religion category are against Jews. The Jewish proportion of Ontario’s population? Around 1.6 percent. That’s 71 percent of the hate crimes on a religious basis against 1 percent of the population.

Rubin is correct that American statistics are similar. In Muslim-controlled countries, the victims of Islamic rage are usually Christians, in part, presumably, because the Jews are all gone. But for our establishment, the concept of “hate crimes” is useful only insofar as it produces political advantage, so reality is never acknowledged.
