I am concerned about the safety of Palestinian Canadians and other Muslim and Arab Canadians if these 1500 battle hardened Zionists are allowed to return to Canada without any kind of interview or follow up to ensure they are not war criminals.

Every single one of them needs to be arrested and charged with war crimes.
Edit: the Criminal Code of Canada exempts most militaries of many charges. For example the explosives act specifically states that it does not apply to military personnel operating under military orders or action.
That should be scrapped for any IDF member. Anyone who served there should charged with the same firearms and explosives offenses that an armed robber or pipe bomber would if they were committing crimes in Canada.
War criminals. Every one of them.
If they are Jewish, then they will be dual citizens
I wonder where they were raised and live.
And 5,169 Russians are also serving in the IDF. And from many other countries. Just in case you want to post this also in the other country-specific communities (there is also a 'Russia' comm here, just fyi).
As an addition, here is a very good story of Canadians fighting in Ukraine:
One operates a Leopard battle tank in the eastern region of Sumy. Another guides drones over the Dnipro river in Ukraine’s southern Kherson province. A third — a mother from B.C. — tends to wounded recruits in a Donetsk-stationed penal unit ...
“I always told my family and friends I’m one that will go and do something, not just talk about it,” said Cowboy, the Canadian tanker whose real name Canadian Affairs agreed to withhold for security reasons ... “You can talk about it all day and pray about it all day,” he said. “But at the end of the day, if you don’t go and try to make change, there won’t be no change" ...
Reliable estimates of the number of Canadians in Ukraine are hard to pin down. Ottawa does not track how many citizens have enlisted. But early in the war, former Liberal MP Borys Wrzesnewskyj, who helped Ukrainian diplomats organize volunteers, estimated roughly 1,500 Canadians had applied to join the International Legion in 2022 ...
oh look more whataboutism from my favorite lemmy troll
