It’s not just the lies that make the news fake, but also the truths they choose to ignore. A prime example is the recent shooting at Edmonton City Hall in Canada. While the media has covered the incident, they’ve conveniently left out a critical detail: the shooter was a radical pro-Hamas left-wing extremist. The incident happened last Tuesday morning. A 28-year-old security guard, Bezhani Sarvar, now faces six charges, including arson, explosives, and discharging a firearm, after his involvement in the shooting and subsequent fire at Edmonton City Hall.

Canada, and the rest of the world, for that matter, is acting very “ho-hum” about this left-wing terror attack.

Marie Oakes:

How is this not a national story in Canada? Why have people barely heard about this? and why are his charges so seemingly insignificant given the incident and likely terroristic-inspired attack?

Pictured: 28-year-old Bezhani Sarvar on Tuesday, January 23, 2024

Charges (or lack thereof):
– reckless discharge of a firearm,
– using/placing/throwing an explosive substance,
– arson,
– possession of incendiary material,
– using a firearm while committing an offence and,
– careless use of a firearm

Incident:
A crazed man with a taped manifesto walks into Edmonton, Alberta City Hall heavily armed, lit several handheld incendiary devices and then starts shooting several rounds while inside city hall.

Luckily, the security guard on duty got the gunman to surrender and detained him until police arrived at the scene

Ari Goldkind:

Good luck finding a single story about Bezhani Sarvar east of Manitoba. A manifesto ridden guy goes into Edmonton City Hall, chanting in Arabic, w/Molotov cocktails & shooting, but I’m told by Liberals that Tucker & Danielle are the problem?!? Madness

Meanwhile, this is how the bozos in local media are reporting the incident, with no mention of this man’s radical left-wing views. Also,  for what it’s worth, the word “Inshallah” is something Muslims use quite frequently. Even more reason for the media and Canada to go into deep “coverup mode,” right?

Do you reckon if this guy was “conservative,” they’d likely let you know about it? Probably, right?

Global News:

A man who worked as a security guard is facing several firearms and arson charges after shots were fired and a Molotov cocktail exploded inside Edmonton City Hall Tuesday morning.

Charges have been filed in court against a 28-year-old man named Bezhani Sarvar.

Sarvar is charged with reckless arson in an occupied property, possessing incendiary materials (Molotov cocktail), use of a firearm while committing an offence, careless use of a firearm (assault rifle), throwing an explosive substance and discharging a firearm into a building.

Police said late Wednesday afternoon an initial charge of knowingly possessing an unauthorized firearm was going to be dropped.

It’s unclear at this point exactly what motivated the shooter at city hall.

[…]

A video posted to YouTube the morning of the shooting, that has since been removed, showed Sarvar wearing a tactical-style vest and holding a large gun, speaking to the camera in a Persian language while smoking and sitting in a casual manner.

A second video showed Sarvar wearing a Commissionaire security jacket, as well as a blue shirt identical to what is seen in surveillance video of the shooter obtained by Global News.

In that video, which has also since been deleted from YouTube, Sarvar was sitting in a vehicle and talked about completing a mission and listed a wide range of concerns, including affordability, the housing crisis and immigration.

No mention of the specifics of this man’s videotaped manifesto, besides some vague mention of “affordability, the housing crisis and immigration”—as if he were just your run-of-the-mill, disgruntled anti-Trudeau Canadian. You’d think that it would be newsworthy if he mentioned the war between Israel and Hamas, wouldn’t you?

Kirk Lubimov:

Probably the most disturbing part from Edmonton City Hall shooter, Bezhani Sarvar:

“Salaam alaikum brothers and sisters, inshallah I will succeed with my mission. If I don’t succeed I know someone else will succeed for me.”

Is he talking about global intifada? Sure sounds like a threat…what does he mean?

Canadians deserve the full story about this madman’s background—not just how he ended up living in their country but also how he landed a high-ranking security job. It wouldn’t be surprising if he was a “Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion” (DEI) hire. And, as we’re seeing in the United States, these DEI hiring practices can lead to dangerous situations, potentially resulting in injuries or death.
