No, the point of Jets4Life's post was to make this thread all about himself. He wanted a platform to preach his evident hatred of Harper and Israel - neither of which is relevant to this thread.

Not even close.
Arguing about how many terrorist attacks the Palestinians have committed against other nations, is somewhat of a red herring. The Islamic world have over 1,000,000,000 people. They view Israel's control of the Holy Land, and the persecution of the Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, as a continuation of Colonial powers controlling land that they have historically resided in.
I certainly do not agree with Harper's unconditional support for the State of Israel. I also do not hate Israel, and I support their right to exist. I just think it is unwise, to give unyielding support, and choose sides in this conflict, when Prime Ministers of past years, have tried to be impartial, in regards to the conflict.
The good thing about Canada, is I am free to state my opinion. It's a democracy. You may not agree with me, but to say I am posting on this topic for self-serving purposes is somewhat ridiculous.
