He pledged 66 million to Palestine.

So you're basically saying that you'd rather be 50% on the side of Israel, and 50% on the side of the "others", who want Israel wiped off the map?

I think I prefer our government's stance in this case. It's really okay to have an opinion, even if our culture as Canadians say that it isn't.
