Air India Kanishka: Canadian journalist Daniel Bordman expressed his outrage towards khalistani terrorism on the 39th anniversary of the Air India Kanishka tragedy. As the Canadian Parliament, or House of Commons, continues to be embroiled in controversy over last week’s “moment of silence” for Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar, a journalist from Canada criticized Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and the government, stating that “hypocrisy is putting it lightly.” This is a mockery of morality.”
Criticism of Canadian Government’s Tribute to Hardeep Singh Nijjar
Speaking to ANI exclusively, Daniel Bordman said, “I mean, I think hypocrisy is putting it lightly. This is a moral travesty. The easy explanation is Khalistani infiltration into the (Canada) government…Many high-ranking government officials in every political party are Palestinian-lined. And this has been a decade worth of work. So, you know, within every party, there were elements of pushing the moment of silence for Nijjar. And it’s absurd. Who gets that? He got a moment of silence, of all people?”
Comparing the occurrence to the murder of Bordman’s buddy at the hands of the terrorist group IRGC, Bordman questioned why a terrorist such as Nijjar, who had been twice denied entry into the nation on the grounds of “terrorism and fraud,” was being accorded tribute. “I had a friend who was murdered by the IRGC, a foreign terrorist organization. He didn’t get a moment of silence in the Canadian parliament, so I don’t see why Nijar needed one,” Bordman said.
“It’s really shameful, The man was denied coming to Canada twice for terrorism and fraud and then somehow snuck, there’s no rational explanation I can offer anyone in India as to why Canada is holding a moment of silence for Hardeep Singh Nijjar.” he added.
Bordman Condemns Failures of Canadian Institutions in Honoring Air India Victims
Canadian journalist Daniel Bordman says, “…329 innocent people were murdered, 280 of whom were Canadian citizens. The Canadian establishment and institutions have failed these families multiple times. So I felt it was important to go out and support this event and promote it and bring different communities together.”
He said, “However, when it was announced that we were going to have a memorial, the Khalistanis announced that they were going to have a memorial half an hour earlier at 1130. And they were there to essentially disrupt and make a nuisance of things… When the Khalistanis came to disturb and interrupt and disrupt that service, I felt it was also important to stand up against them… We have to support the victims of terrorism, but also oppose those who want to commit terrorism…”
Trudeau Criticized for Alleged Moral Failures
The Canadian prime minister doesn’t really need an excuse to do anything bad, according to Bordamn, who recalled the occasion when Trudeau was praised by a prominent Hamas leader. Instead, “it’s a confluence of his catastrophic moral failures.” He added “I don’t think Trudeau really needs a reason to do the wrong thing. It is sort of a moral compulsion at this point…He was praised by Hamas, Churches are being burned down and he supported that. It is a confluence of his catastrophic moral failures.” Senior Hamas leader Ghazi Hamad commended Canada in December 2023 for backing a “immediate sustainable ceasefire” in Israel’s conflict with the terrorist group.
Foreign Minister Jaishankar Pays Tribute
S Jaishankar Posted on X (Formally Twitter) that, “Today marks the 39th anniversary of one of the worst acts of terrorism in history. Pay my homage to the memory of the 329 victims of AI 182 ‘Kanishka’ who were killed this day in 1985. My thoughts are with their families. The anniversary is a reminder why terrorism should never be tolerated.”
What Was Air India Kanishka Tragedy
The 329 people on board died when Air India flight 182 Kanishka was destroyed in midair 39 years ago by a bomb set by Canadian Khalistani terrorists, despite Canadian authorities having information that the aircraft was a possible terrorist target. Among the bloodiest acts of aviation terrorism, the Kanishka bombing claimed the lives of 268 Canadian, 27 British, and 24 Indian civilians.
