Poilievre has a very strong and long standing record supporting the state of Israel.

“I announced my recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital [while campaigning] and now, as opposition leader and head of the Conservative Party, I repeat clearly and unambiguously: Jerusalem is the capital of Israel, and when I am elected prime minister of Canada, I will ensure that our embassy is relocated from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem,” said Poilievre.

Poilievre reiterated some of the points made in the flyer, starting with the assertion that the Liberal government “willingly” continued to participate in the 2001 United Nations Durban conference against racism, even after it had become a forum for anti-Semitism. He contrasted that with Harper having been the first national leader in the world to withdraw from the second Durban conference this year.

He also repeated that the Harper government was the first in the world to cut funding to the Hamas-led government in Gaza when the Liberals were calling for an increase in funding.
Can his stance be any clearer?

That's exactly what I mean by unsubstantiated accusations born from political boogyman and narratives, and why claiming he is dog-whistling is asinine and dangerous and needs to be substantiated.
