Globe and Mail ^ | 2011-05-20 | Daniel Leblanc

Posted on 05/20/2011 3:05:20 PM PDT by Clive

The Harper government is refusing to join the United States in calling for a return to 1967 borders as a starting point for Mideast peace, a position that has drawn sharp criticism from Canada’s staunch ally Israel.

At a briefing ahead of the upcoming G8 summit in France, federal officials said the basis for the negotiations must be mutually agreed upon.

Yep, and of course this is on top of losing England, India, France, and Poland fairly early on. And of course poor little Honduras down there too.

What’s this “We” stuff?

You got a mouse in your pocket?

Half of us made no such error, and were alert enough to see he was AT LEAST a Muslim sympathizer.

Evidently, the Free World now must look to Canada for moral leadership.

How embarrassing.

Yet another failure for Obama.

Thank you, Canada.

I’ve read almost half of the 900+ comments at the article. I am flabbergasted by the overwhelming disgust, contempt, even hatred toward Israel that is reflected in the comments. 95% of the comments are anti-Israel. They truly believe that Israel stole “Palestine’s” land and imprisoned the Palestinian people. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised, but I am.

He has his orders from the White House. Fox is Cowed now by Media Matters and threats against the advertisers. Trust nothing on TV. The GOP is in Duck and Cover mode under their desks. Amazing to behold. I never thought it could happen here. It is going to get bumpy from here out. Every day more and more.

Amazing, isn't it? In their eyes, Obama can do no wrong.

The Harper government is refusing to join the United States in calling for a return to 1967 borders as a starting point for Mideast peace, a position that has drawn sharp criticism from Canada’s staunch ally Israel.

Continuing in the tradition of excellence that's brought us the break-America bailout, Obamacare, cash for clunkers, public revelation of the classified bunker under the Vice Presidential mansion, the shut-down Gitmo movement, the idea of trying terrorists in civil court, a ban on waterboarding and prosecution of US terrorist interrogators, talk of "man-caused disasters," condemnation of our military efforts in Iraq, random intervention in Libya, and the clear, authoritative, consistent communication following the killing of Osama bin Laden.

Thats Canadas own fault

When the country was first taken over by the English (1760s) they allowed people in Quebec to keep on speaking French eventhough the official language was now English
