How many Canadians does Israel have to murder...

...before Harper will do a damn thing about it?

The CBC is reporting that a Canadian UN observer is believed to be among the dead in the Israeli attack on a UN post. Of course our Prime Minister is totally useless in this matter as he makes an a priori assumption that the post was not deliberately targeted. Apparently he believes this because the Israeli leaderships says so. Now there are reports that Hezbollah fighters were allegedly in the vicinity. So what? Israel deliberately took out a UN target. Is Harper afraid to speak up because of the Bushies? It's not for votes, I live in one of the most Jewish ridings in Canada, and the Liberals took in a landslide last election. So I call bullshit on that one. Harper ran on the slogan "Stand up for Canada" but apparently it's also "Bend over for Israel." This is not about "self-defense" this is Israel just bombing the fuck out of whatever it chooses to hit. And we have a PM who is a weak-kneed coward not able to stand up for the 50 000 Lebanese Canadians or even Canadian soldiers in Lebanon.

While other countries are condemning the indiscriminate killing of their peacekeeping soldiers, Harper just stands there, grinning like an idiot. I have never like him, but this sort of impotence makes me think that I will actively work against him and anyone from his party. There will be no more passive head-shaking.

Many of my family members fought for Canada, when Harper does nothing to stand up for Canadian soldiers under attack by a foreign power, he pisses on that legacy.

Fuck you "Steve"
