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.

The middle east is much more complex than to lump one side together as 'others'. It is possible to support the communities in Palestine without supporting Islamic terrorists or governments in neighbouring countries. Can't we be staunchly opposed to Islamic terrorism, and staunchly opposed to the continued ghettoization of Palestine? Honestly the way both sides have behaved in recent years, I don't see why anyone involved deserves Canada's friendship.
edit: to stay on topic: yeah, war on science bad too.
