Independent Jewish Voices (IJV) today gave the Canadian Parliamentary Coalition to Combat Anti-Semitism (CPCCA) an overall failing grade on its long-overdue report.
Conrad Black and Rupert Murdoch are Zionists, strong supporters of Israel, right-wing politicians and the wars on Afghanistan and Iraq; and both are founders of media empires to propagate their views.
The citations of the Oslo terrorist Anders Behring Breivik's 1500-page Manifesto include the writings of well-known anti-Muslim personalities like Robert Spencer, Pamela Geller, Daniel Pipes, Walid Shoebat and Canada's Mark Steyn. Steyn is the author of "The future belongs to Islam" (Maclean's Magazine - October 23, 2006).
There are things not to like about Ontario Liberal Premier Dalton McGuinty. Perhaps the most worrying are his unconstitutional G20 legislation, the cruel application of that law, and his refusal to institute a public inquiry into the events surrounding the conference. Then there are the financial constraints imposed on the Children's Aid Societies without any guidelines as to where to cut back. Thus, when things go wrong, all the blame can be shifted onto the CAS's. His bail-out for corporations but not for workers' pensions is another strike against him. One could go on.
In his book BDS: Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions Omar Barghouti presents a strong and cogent case for BDS. More specifically, the book focuses primarily on boycott. Rather than a single essay, the book consists of a number of essays and interviews, many of which could stand on their own.
As we witness the rioting in the UK, as part of global phenomena of disaffected peoples expressing their grievances, often in destructive ways; and authorities responding by "cracking the whip," we're witnessing a continuous cycle with no apparent end in sight.
Like a skyrocket, Dr. Jack Layton rose to the heights, only to fall suddenly back to earth. On his rise, he took his party to new heights, but fate does not respect optimism, ambition, or even accomplishment. Now is the time to look at what he has done, what he has not done, and what remains to be done.
When the Canadian boat to Gaza, the Tahrir, was boarded by Greek commandos and towed back to port on July 4, the resulting publicity galvanized supporters around the world in their determination to lift the siege of Gaza.
It tends to be human nature that we like those who embody our values and look less favourably upon those who don't. Thus it's not surprising that some on the right of the political spectrum, such as National Post columnist Christie Blatchford, wasn't pleased with Jack Layton's farewell letter to Canadians; or many of the causes he fought for during his 30 years in public life.
