MONTREAL - The suspension of Mideast-related events by Concordia University after violent protests forced the cancellation of a speech by former Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu penalizes Jewish students who want to stage pro-Israel activities, an organizer of the event says.


Well, isn't that one heck of an opening line to recap the story of a speech cancelled by pro-Palestinian rioters, police incompetence, and university cowardice? True, the story seeps out in the rest of the piece, but the very 'moral equivalence' that is being decried is on full display in that first paragraph, which gives the impression that it might have been Jewish protesters who shut down Neyanyahu's speech. But then, this is the cbc, so what more do you expect?
