Jewish Canadians ping!
Despicable bias.
This 'double loyalty' thing is tough. First as an American I think that no one should be allowed to have dual citizenship. You are either an American citizen or not, period. Second you will never have people with out feeling to their ancestral home or their racial group but I do believe you could modify this to a large extent by insisting that as an American you speak English and that all government business be conducted in English. This would at least give us a common language with which to converse and trade our thoughts and ideals.
No dual problem for Saudi-Canadians? Iranian-Canadians? Egyptian-Canadians? Syrian-Canadians? Kuwaiti-Canadians? Dubai-Canadians? UAE-Canadians? Bahraini-Canadians? Sudanese-Canadians? Yemenite-Canadians? Jordanian-Canadians? Palestinian-Canadians? Chechyn-Canadians? Algerian-Canadians? Moroccan-Canadians? Tunisian-Canadians?
FRmail me to be added or removed from this Judaic/pro-Israel/Russian Jewry ping list.
Warning! This is a high-volume ping list.
No, because ISLAM ALWAYS COMES FIRST!
Those guys arrested in Mississauga had a major dual nationality problem.
The real question of dual loyalty is whether the Canadian Liberal Party can continue to be simultaneously loyal to the West and to Islam.
Larry the burnt-out beatnick never fails to open with a lie. A significant number of Lebanese-Canadians have been singing Harper's praises since he took his anti-terrorist stand.
What about the most obvious double-loyalty - French Canadians?
It was an education in Jewish culture and a wonderfully romantic interlude. Contrary to the stereotypical dating stories I had been warned with, I found that her family was brilliantly intelligent, warm and really comical at times. I loved them.
I also educated myself by attending several public presentations by then living survivors of the holocaust.
The upshot is that I believe that the culture of the Jews is one which celebrates life and its creation. The culture of Sumer, ie from Sumeria and Babylon essentially is a culture of nihilism and death. After all Shiite Islam is little different than the society created by the Sumerians in their worship of Baal and Ishtar. Indeed the crescent of Ishtar adorns many Muslim flags today. It is a reminder to Muslims that feminine creative life needs to be suppressed and controlled. It is institutionalized nihilism.
An over simplification would be perhaps to say that Jewish civilization possesses a philosophey of "life makers" while the Shia are dedicated to a philosophy of "life takers" and supression.
As the world shrinks, the Shia women come under the Western influence which appeals to them as women to be life makers, rather than to simply bear children whose most ultimate expression would be to become a martyr for Islam. This is Israel's greatest offence, and the greatest offense of the West. Therefore the Shia seek to destroy or subjugate the rest of the world in an insane attempt to seek a refuge they now cannot construct in isolation from the rest of the world, as they had done in the past.
This war is one of a clash between civilizations, and for anyone to think otherwise is just plain dumb.
In Canada we have a multitude of femino-nazis and Gays who believe that civilization according to Shiism is suitable for them and all Canadians. Our liberal socialists agree with them. They too are life takers, not life makers.
That is why the charges by liberal socialists of "dual loyalty" are so laughable. They come from people who believe in a Utopia of life takers, an oxymoronic approach.
These Canadian anti-Jewish life takers are to be mocked and ridiculed by Canadians as they well should.What Utopia could possibly be founded on militant nihilism? Any Utopian approach is doomed to failure anyway, becuase it necessarily restricts the individual freedoms which define human happiness. Ordinary Canadians are life makers and always will be, and now ordinary Canadians see quite beyond the horrors to which Canadian liberal socialists had been leading them nihilistically since Trudeau. They are dismissed, and we anxiously await for them just to crawl into a corner and die, silently.
I had no idea that Canadian Jews were suspicious of the Left and of the liberal media. If this is so I am glad, but I believe the Jewish community of Canada has been traditionally left-of-center.
Canada is much more anti-Semitic than the United States (there were riots in Quebec during WWII by French Canadians who wanted nothing to do with fighting for Britain, and Alberta was actually governed for a while by the anti-Semitic Social Credit Party).
I do wish people would stop referring to anti-Semitism as "racism" (a word that conjures up a flag-burning Sixties hippie attacking "like, racism, man!"). Anti-Semitism is simply resentment of G-d's election of Israel . . . but then people would have to talk about G-d, and people don't like doing that. Ironically, it is considered especially inappropriate to associate G-d with the Jewish People, the people G-d chose. Are they not the archtypal "victims of religion?"
Kudos to the PM for recognizing and articulating that the common enemy of both Israel and Canada is Islamic terrorism.
Now if only Mr. Harper could show his support further by sending even a small Canadian armed force or even civilians to help out the Americans and Brits in stabilizing Iraq.
