3.This feels like a miracle
Parts of the Canadian government announcement issued Nov 10 as regards Canada's position on Israel at the UN: “This series of resolutions against Israel is generally one-sided, unbalanced and does not address the complexities of the issues, nor seeks to address the true actions and responsibilities of all parties. “As a package, the resolutions are unbalanced, lack references to terrorist activities carried out by Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad and others against Israel and are, thus, ultimately unhelpful to the cause of a lasting, negotiated peace.
“Rockets rain down on Israeli schools without condemnation in these resolutions.
“Israeli soldiers have been kidnapped and held without regard to international norms and standards. This, too, has not been reflected in resolutions over the years.
“There are important elements in these resolutions that need to be discussed, but they are drowned out by the unbalanced nature of the broad package of resolutions. “No other conflict area in the world draws even a fraction of the time and energy of member states—even though there are a number of long-standing and destabilizing conflicts that seem intractable.
“As a result, Canada has made a decision, based upon its principled foreign policy, to vote no or to abstain on this package of General Assembly resolutions on the Middle East.
COMMENT: Clearly Israel is not alone. A miracle in itself. God Bless you Stephen Harper.
