Stephen Harper and Mr. Baird line up like the most inept foreign policy makers to ever grace the Canadian Parliament. With the Middle East in a stage of confusion and Israel and Palestine trading rockets we find our Canadian leaders shouting out to the world that the Jewish nation has a right to defend itself and offer 100% support for their cause.
A grade eight student would say that this was stupid as Canada has now lost all sense of fairness and lost any equity in being able to help to solve problems in that region for years to come. Most people agree that Israel has a right to exist as a free nation. It is also true that most people agree that Palestine also has a right to have a homeland free from the horrible destruction brought on their land and people every time that some frustrated rebels in Palestine commit crimes against Israel.
The people of Palestine have been attempting to gain a homeland since 1948 when Britain arbitrarily divided up the land in the middle east to give the Jews a homeland. It was not fairly divided then and it is not fair now.
Israel has the USA on its side or it would not exist for a month. This great power provides military might and Israel feels content to use overwhelming military to keep Palestine in a captive situation.
Canada has always been a neutral nation when it came to foreign policy. This government has caused the relationship between Canada and middle east countries to become toxic. There are millions of people living in the area and our policies as of late push them farther away from us .Other world leaders are away more guarded than Canada when it comes to Israel. There has to be a final solution to this ongoing crisis but Canada will not be a stakeholder in the process because we already showed our hand. How sad and how stupid.
In the meantime numerous innocent children and adults die because of the actions of the Jewish military might.
