A New Priority

The Harpocrites have replaced one of their Five priorities with another. Though of course it wasnn't part of their election campaign. That is they have replaced their priority about Health Care Wait Times with the new priority; Resolute Unquestioning Support For Israel.

The Death Of A Tory Majority

Its the shrug heard around the world.

Canadian government indifferent to Israel’s murder of eight of its citizens

And each death in Lebanon will be the death of a Majority for the Harpocrite Tories.

Left Behind in lebanon
And then there is that other constituency: Lebanese-Canadians. Canadians outnumber all other foreigners in Lebanon. The numbers actually range from the popularly accepted 40,000 to as many as 60,000. Mr. Harper would be unwise to write off the fair and personal concerns of this valued constituency. But today, Lebanese-Canadians are feeling they have been tossed aside by the PM. While they may have had some criticisms of Canada's evacuation plans, their enduring issue won't be evacuation. It will be the life and death of those who are left behind in Lebanon.

Mideast talk scorches PM
Prime Minister Stephen Harper's Conservative government is under fire for swiftly taking sides in the Mideast crisis while delivering a tardy response to evacuating Canadians whose lives are endangered in the war zone.

Hundreds denounce PM's stand
More than 500 people gather on the grounds of the Alberta legislature Wednesday to protest both the pace of evacuation of thousands of Canadians trapped in Lebanon and alleged Israeli aggression in its bombing of that country.

The Lebanese community in Alberta is one of the oldest in Canada.The first Mosque in Canada, indeed in North America, was built in Edmonton and now resides in historic Fort Edmonton Park.

Many of those original immigrants are buried in Beechmount cemetary, next to my relatives who came at the same time from the Ukraine.

The Harpocrite governments apologetics for Israel clearly show it is out of touch with Albertans and Canadians .

The irony is that the Harpocrites support of Israel is based on Born Again Christians who await the coming Rapture.

Israels best friend; Stockwell Day, is one of these.

These religious right wingers have no interest in Israel perse other than its existence portends the millenial belief of second coming of Christ as predicted in the Book of Revelations.

You Can't Read This In India

Indian Bloggers May Get Reprieve
Some ISPs overcautiously blocked entire domains such as Google’s www.blogspot.com rather than the sub-domains that they had been instructed to block, Maheshwari said. Indian bloggers were thus denied access to a large number of blogs on these and other domains, he added.

After 2 days, India calls blog block an "error"

Well duh.

Of course this would never happen in Canada.
