Engler’s arrest has been widely reported by X users, including well-known political commentator Glenn Greenwald and Ali Abunimah of Electronic Intifada (Abunimah was himself unjustly arrested by Swiss authorities last month). Turkish and Iranian media have reported on Engler’s arrest, as has the UK-based channel Middle East Eye and the online legal news service Jurist News. However, no mainstream Canadian media have reported on Engler’s arrest, and next to no Canadian politicians have condemned his jailing.
Another spam post about this guy. He is very pro-Russia and anti-Ukrainian.
If it does turn out that “racist Dahlia supports killing Palestinian children. 20,000 is not enough she wants even more Palestinian blood spilled” really is the worst that he posted, as the law student suggests, then all the ridiculously slanted reporting about it — which unquestioningly takes the accused at his word — might turn out to be not too far from the truth after all. We’ll find out eventually, I hope.
