I don't mind admitting that I have agreed with most of what you have said, but I'm quite sure I'm one of few on this thread. Pity really.

Here is something to think about:

antiwar.com

Excerp:

"Do you know that one-third of the Lebanese civilians murdered by Israel's attacks on civilian residential districts are children?"

Anyone care to weigh in? Does anyone on this forum give a sh*t that innocent civilians in Lebanon are in a humanitarian crisis resulting from actions that Canada has condoned? Can you answer this directly

Do you think 1 life would have been saved if Canada had said, we do not agree with Israel defending it's citizens from murder and kidnapping, and we support terrorism? Because either we support Israel, or we support terrorism. So do we support Israel? or Hezbollah? because if you condemn Israel, it will be seen as support for Hezbollah.
