It's a lose-lose situation either way.
Please explain. If you knowingly repeat untruths about Israel what is it?

I just honestly hope he doesn't think an opinion piece proves his bias.

I am in the camp of "Cut Israel off from the US-teet and then let that corner of the globe duke it out conventional weapons style".

THE MIDDLE EAST OCTAGON - JEWS AND MUSLIMS ENTER - ONLY ONE LEAAAVEEEES


TONIGHT ON PAY PER VIEEEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW


/above post semi in jest - Don't give a *** about either group, just wish they'd settle it and get on with things - a royal rumble sounds about par for the course.

I still think Israel would win. Those Arab countries have a large population, but nothing effective like the Israeli army.

Sounds like you and I should get in business and run the book on the fight... Bet there'd be some big dollars to be made!

If you read your posts you have tread right along the path of accusations and sidestepped you making the accusation yourself.

Like I have asked already, why don't you state the human rights issue in Israel and explain what is sickening.

Sounds like you moved to Canada from another country, I hope it is better here than from where you came from (or was that another poster, I forget?).
Fine. I was being the Keith Obermann to your Bill O'Reily.


And no idea where you're getting the immigrant thing. I've lived here my entire life.

Considering I like Trudeau so much, I was probably born in the wrong province.

NOW hypothetically, they continue to claim land over the last two centuries using tactics of oppression and intimidation, pushing the Canadian population into smaller and smaller confines. How long until we conservative Canadians are fanatics? I think Israel carries a lot of responsibility for their current plight and we should't be aligning with them in any capacity, physical or symbolic. I would agree that not a single Canadian life should be risked in the defence of Israel.

I think Iginla's parents were persecuted by Israel or something ... I think it was him. And Iran because they're run by #######s I assume.

I assume that from the tone of this post that you are anti-israel? Please clarify your position on Isreal.

I don't love either country, but I don't hate them either. Hate is a very strong emotion. Just curious why you feel that way.
