Canadian Islamic Congress Supports Syria LGF In their latest overheated, ranting press release urging Prime Minister Paul Martin to lend legitimacy to Syria’s occupation of Lebanon, the Canadian Islamic Congress makes it extremely clear that they are enemies of America—and insanely obsessed with Israel. canadiancoalition.com
In a letter today to Prime Minister Paul Martin, the Canadian Islamic Congress said it endorses yesterday Martin’s characterization that Syrian troops are in Lebanon as peacekeepers, not invaders. “The withdrawal of Syrian troops from Lebanon should be left up to those two countries to negotiate,” said the CIC.
CIC also urged the Canadian government to moderate Washington’s aggressive and dangerous policies against Iran, Syria and Lebanon, warning that failure to do so will lead only to more death, destruction and human misery in the Middle East.
To date, the American-led invasion of Iraq has resulted in the deaths of more than 100,000 Iraqis and thousands of Americans. Iraq has been transformed from country with 100% employment and a stable public service infrastructure, into an impoverished nation in disarray, with more than half of its adult workforce jobless. From being one of the leading Middle East states in administration, education and health care, Iraq has fallen to one of the world’s most disadvantaged societies.
The CIC is charging that America’s aggressive Middle East policies are designed primarily to shore up Israel’s military power and economic advantages in the region, while attempting to divert world attention from Israel’s territorial expansion into the West Bank through illegal Jews-only settlements. |
