Do Stephen Harper and Foreign Affairs Minister Lawrence Cannon have any humanity left in them? They keep on firing their verbal cannon that it is all about Israel's self-defence. Every passing day it is becoming harder to believe. The tacit (and not so tacit) approval by the Harper government is giving a black eye to Canada's past reputation as a peacekeeper.
Harper and Cannon are reading from Bush's playbook or talking points, but what is with our leader Ignatieff? When will red hot Liberal blood boil in him so that he sees the reality and call a spade a spade. European nations have caught on and French President Sarkozy is visiting the area. Even Obama, who has been keeping mostly silent on the issue (which raises criticisms of its own, though at least he is not yet sworn into office), has expressed regret at the loss of lives in Gaza.
Come on Canada.
Recently, 40 people (including children) were killed when a UN school in Gaza, which was being used as a shelter, was hit. Sorry folks, I must admit, I feel too upset to write anymore. The pictures above speak volumes.
Rather disappointing when the Liberal party is echoing Harper's position.
ReplyDeleteLet's not forget that Iggy has Warren K (Isreal brown-noser par excellence) as his "war-room" advisor - wonder what influence that has.
UN schools were in the crossfire/attacked 3 times that day...
Cherniak_WTF, you must be the good Cherniak.:)
ReplyDeleteThe postition of Iggy and Liberal Party is very distressing. I am having second thoughts about the Party.
