      Jewish Defense League of Canada offered a $500 reward to anyone who would provide information regarding the assailants who attacked two Jewish students at Toronto's York University during pro-Israel activity on Monday, according to the Shalom Life website.

      Co-President Tyler Golden of Hasbara Fellowships said his group, which runs a campaign called Free Palestinians from Hamas, was tabling for abducted Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit.
