The only solution is to apply an international embargo on Israel until it vacates all occupied Arab lands and respects international including the 75 + Security Council and General assembly UN resolutions its flaunts at the moment. Sanction Israel NOW!
The fat NeoCon Warmonger "Steve" Harper is an embarrassment to Canada. Shame on Harper for dragging Canada into Bush's attack, invasion, occupation, torture, rape and massacre GWOT nightmare. And double shame for supporting the Israeli slaughter of the people of Palestine and Lebanon
I am disappointed in your unbalanced and unliteral support to the most powerful military machine in the middle east. You are supporting mass-punishment doctrine of the Nazi era. Your efforts should have been directed at bringing about de-escalation and looking at the core issues rather than the manifestation of dispair and helplessness.
It is time to state the obvious: By giving his support to Israel's barbaric, illegal and utterly unjustifiable attacks against Lebanon and the Gaza Strip, Prime Minister Harper is endorsing fascism.
He is also complicit in the deaths of Canadian nationals in Lebanon and placing over 50,000 in greater peril.
Furthermore, he is severely tarnishing Canada's image around the world and not serving its true geopolitical interests which are most definitely not those pursued by the corrupt, duplicitous Bush administration and its neo-con pro-expansionist Israel advisors.
«As in 1982, the present operation, too, was planned and is being carried out in full coordination with the US.
That's the main thing. Everything else is noise and propaganda.
Uri Avnery, Israel
If Israel has a right to defend itself by using disproportionate and indiscriminate violence, then so do the Palestinian and Lebanese peoples. Better to condemn all violence, beginning with that of the illegally occupying power, Israel.
