The anti-feminist element of Arabic suicide terror is nowadays often overlooked. But already more than 20 years ago, on December 6, 1989, a young Canadian of Algerian origin, commited the worst terrorist act ever in Canada, killing 14 young women he considered feminists. Islamist terror today may be rationalized as pursuing a caliphate. But emotionally, it is simply anti-feminist. Young Arabs blame feminists for the fact Western women are not sexually available for them, and they fear that when feminism penetrates Arabia, the local girls also all want American men. So Arabs feel under seige by feminists, and believe only Sharia law can protect them. But Western fighting technology is superior and will defeat Arabic terror. And all Western countries now already take precautions against Arabs, whether the are naturalized imigrants or tourists from Yemen. In some countries there are even moves to strip Muslims of their naturalization.

Canada / Montreal Massacre

Also known as École Polytechnique massacre

The École Polytechnique Massacre, also known as the Montreal Massacre, occurred on December 6, 1989 at the École Polytechnique in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Twenty-five-year-old Marc Lépine, armed with a legally obtained semi-automatic rifle and a hunting knife, shot twenty-eight people before killing himself. He began his attack by entering a classroom at the university, where he separated the male and female students. After claiming that he was "fighting feminism", he shot all nine women in the room, killing six. He then moved through corridors, the cafeteria, and another classroom, specifically targeting women to shoot. He killed fourteen women and injured ten other women and four men in just under twenty minutes before turning the gun on himself.

Lépine was the child of a French-Canadian mother and an Algerian father, and had been physically abused by his father. His suicide note claimed political motives and blamed feminists for ruining his life. The note included a list of nineteen Quebec women whom Lépine considered to be feminists and apparently wished to kill.

Since the attack, Canadians have debated various interpretations of the events, their significance, and Lépine's motives. Many feminist groups and public officials have characterized the massacre as an anti-feminist attack that is representative of wider societal violence against women. Consequently, the anniversary of the massacre has since been commemorated as the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women. Other interpretations emphasize Lépine's abuse as a child or suggest that the massacre was simply the isolated act of a madman, unrelated to larger social issues. Still other commentators have blamed violence in the media and increasing poverty, isolation, and alienation in society, particularly in immigrant communities.

The incident led to more stringent gun control laws in Canada, and changes in the tactical response of police to shootings, which were later credited with minimizing casualties at the Dawson College shootings.
