Many thanks to the Right Honourable Prime Minister Harper for his love and support for our people and the nation of Israel. May Hashem bless him forever.
Haper is one of the few politicians on the planet who has balls to call a spade a spade. Good for him :)
Makes me proud to be Canadian.
i feel sorry for people who are so weak minded that they need religion to guide there life. Believing in a magical man that lives in the sky that no one has ever seen, then feeling the need to kill in his name.
how arrogant man is.
How did we Canada start supporting Israel more strongly than the country it owns (US)?
Answer: Harper and his evangelical Christian beliefs. Cause I know most Canadians do not share this view
Harper does not speak for me. Nobody nowhere deserves Unconditional support. That's crazy. It's up to Israel's true friends to point out its faults and not just cover everything up with controlled media. Canada has become a false friend who looks the other way when Israel needs some tough love.
Touché!
So true.
This 13 years old? Wow. It's like every video on Palestine could be applied to the current moment.
Why is the Barry and Honey Sherman Case still unsolved?
P.S. Barry garroted Honey with her consent and then he garroted himself. Thus it was a Double Suicide Case. Who forced them to kill themselves in such a humiliating manner and why?
How much has really changed since 2010? Canada has a different PM from a different party, but our Foreign Policy seems stuck in the "Harper Hangover", especially as concerns Israeli violations of Palestinian human rights.
AlJeera is a Qatari channel who makes Harper sound like an idiot because Canada and Qatar compete for selling of natural gas.
I'm so proud to be Canadian :)
Full support for teeny little Israel.
Harper is a PUPPET !! WAKE UP PEOPLE !! ''THOSE YOU CAN'T CRITICIZE ARE THE ONES THAT ARE OPPRESSING YOU'
Bottom line: illegal occupation by a foreign funded nation is not justifiable by ANY religious mumbo jumbo, Judaism is not a race, it is a belief system and anyone can convert to Judaism. To say a religious group has claim to land based on their religion is simply ridiculous to me.
You just proved my point! Thanks! You keep digging yourself into a hole! May you find peace in your heart so you can spread that peace to the rest of the world. Hate begets hate! only love can save us! “Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.” - 1 Corinthians 13:4-8; The Hebrew Bible
There is hate on both sides over there and no people are immune to it.
Every one needs to look up the very important Jewish voice on this issue, Miko Peled who wrote a book called "the generals son", there are utube videos of interviews with him
Mr Harper's embrace of the Jewish people, I read, stems from his father's influence. One must assume that Mr. Lewis's ideas also have its genesis at the foot of his elders
I think Canadians hate harper more then any other Prime Minister. Possibly Mulroney could compete for that title
He is a Conservative, but not necessarily conservative in all aspects. And the exact same applies to me.
Now, you were going to show me something?
I actually think that Harper is mentally challanged
bsss1112 Have you seen what this idiot wants to bring into law, and I suppose I must be mentally challenged communicating with morons like you.
rabble.ca/blogs/bloggers/gerry-caplan/2015/05/stephen-harper-probably-wishes-month-may-had-never-happened
MadIslowlygoing I support Harpers attempt to keep Canadians safer.
I guess there are many morons. Most of Europe is moving to the right. Get used to it.
@ 21:00 WTF!?
If Canadians were not on board with our government's support of Israel, then why did we re-elect Harper with a majority?
Fail.
Canada I thought you was smart.
What Canada the push over who let U.S. military and space command all over their Northern Providence in order to effect Russian weather… Noooo they are totally neutral.
Smedley Butler Im so jacked up on US politics that I know more about USA Laws and regulations than I do about the country I reside in. Lmfao. I need to focus my attention better.
now I like Canada even more
Someone witting the Canadian Government has been paid rather well....
this country called Canada is very deceiving country,they deceived many students saying they provide good education ,but at the end what they wanted is foreigner students to give them money. as Moroccan ,I remember they did give money to Moroccan businessmen who promote the Canadian products to extand their market and Canada went on media and said that we did give money for Moroccans .when in reality they were investing their money in morocco through Moroccan businessmen! what a deceiving !!!
I know of a rape victim poor girl needs to be LOVED AND NOT ABUSED
CANADIANS speak out.
Why is it that anti Semitism only talked about in an Israeli context? Arabs are Semites as well so why aren't racist comments against Arabs considered anti-Semitic?
Just wondering...
But how WELL do they live there?
@ 19:26 "The only time there will be peace in Israel is when the Islamic world will come to terms with that reality and apologize to the Jewish people...for the nerve to erect a mosque on the temple mount"
Yes, just one opinon - but seems not to be an anomaly.
Do the muslim Israeli Arabs not have the same access to religious rights as their Jewish peers? A mosque is not a symbol of desecration, and the Temple mount considered a holy site in Islam as well.
As an Israeli, your opinion is very legitimate in my eyes. You pay those taxes, not me.
But I just wanted you to have the facts as they are:
According to my check at "Canadian international development platform" site, Israel receives some 0.2M C$, which is pretty negligible, imho. Whilst Palestinian Authority receives 65M C$. It's about 300 times more.
FYI.
And please don't spread lie about my country: we do NOT "murder", but fight for our security. And we DO "own" this land. It's ours.
ask rachel corrie
I see, when palis attack terrorist style, that is hate and when Jews defend themselves, that is also hate? Got it. Thanks for enlightening us.
I hate Stephen Harper...ruining everything Canada USED to stand for. Embarrassed. Come on Canadians, wake up!

What about Western terrorism? We point fingers at ISIS and Hamas and proclaim ourselves as the great arbiter of freedom from tyranny and violence, a shining light that will free the enslaved from the wretched. These evil "terrorists" kill innocent people are nothing like us, right? No, we would never invade a sovereign nation that did not attack us - oh wait Afghanistan (the Taliban did not do 9/11; the al Qaeda fighters, mostly Saudis, were based in Germany), Iraq (reason? I don't know WMDs...or something), not to mention all the "conflicts" that don't officially count, like bombing Western Pakistan, Yemen, Somalia and beyond.
No we would never send rockets into Israel, but we WILL support the Israeli state that is systematically trying to break the spirit of the Palestinian people, who are subject to enormous abuses that any international lawyer would tell you are war crimes...if Palestine were a nation, which countries like Canada block. Why? Because our Evangelic PM has a hard on for all things American, and what is more American then kowtowing to the Israeli lobby?
We invade, we kill, we even torture, we rape poor countries for their oil, we draw lines on a map with no regard for the people living there and we are shocked when they object. We have the supreme right to do whatever the fuck we want in the Middle East, Israel does too, and if ANYONE says no, if ANYONE fights back, we label them as terrorists and go on with our day.
I say fuck Western democracy. I am not supporting the violence of the Muslim extremists mind you, but I will not just write it off as lacking a reason. I am against all violence, and sadly the majority of it does not come from what you would call "islamic terrorism", it comes from your precious "western democracy". To them, WE are the terrorists.
Do you need to be Jewish to join the idf?
So what you are saying is that when the palestinians offered jewish people a safe country to live in after WW2 the jews/israel's had the right to force them off the land with force and condemn them to a small strip of land with army raids almost hourly. Furthermore if a single palestinian had a gun the whole village could be flattened with tanks and aircraft. IF THIS IS NOT WHAT YOU MEANT TO SAY please clarify
1818 - 18 is Chai - life - in Hebrew - a lucky number.
Only so enthusiastically supported by the CONs government, and adherents. The IJV (Independant Jewish Voters) in Canada is a good organization, and deep, and most Jewish people I know are very leery, apart from sentiment, very leery of the State of Israel, and have been for some time. I belong (such as that has meaning) to the IJV.
Hello, and Jesus Loves YOU
And I showed you a vid of a South African politician (BLACK) who explained why claims such as YOURS is full of excrement and a lie and an insult to those that REALLY suffered through an apartheid system in S. AFrica.
Go watch.
watch?v=se5xTh8uwyo
Like everything else, just follow the money...
Harper must go!!!!
JeSuS lOvEs YoU, hows That chief
as a white non jewish/arab albertan, i fear your ignorance is alarming
yes or you can have a citizenship,christian arabs and druze are also serving in the idf(if they want)
this is a little one sided, come on there are two sides to this coin
May peace be upon Israel and God bless Prime Minister Stephen Harper.
he does not speak for Canadians. fuck Zionism.
hey idiot why dont you move to Israel then you hypocrite.
+Carl Johnson prime minister who?
+Carl Johnson They are wrong, it is not ancient. It is entirely new and based on their actions, mentality, and media influences TODAY!
I am not a Gentile, that word is meaningless. I am a human being, and it is more scary and disturbing than anything else, that our government has any affiliation with religious fundamentalists.
Money is made evil because we deal with private banks and the military industrial complex. The truly disturbing aspect, is how profits are siphoned for foreign aid to Israel. When Israel only has one agenda; build the holy temple in Jerusalem. Jerusalem, just a place, but the hotbed of racism and conflict for centuries. The only ancient delusion is the desire to build something their and occupy that place.
Israel has no Apartheid, not like Palestine. They have Iron dome, Mossad, Dimona, America, and Canada/UK to support them. They violated international agreements and violently took control of Jerusalem from Palestine. Suicide bombings are the last desperate efforts of people who have had everything taken from them. Palestinians did not start the violence, and yet Jews act like what they are doing is somehow better than anti-Semitism. Yet, many labelled as anti-semitists are doing nothing more than expressing free speech. Anti-Semites did not take any persons land, infiltrate their government, and act as a complicit interface with a co-operated private banking system. Anti-semites of today are not killing Jews, and rather questioning the legitimacy of the history which they manipulated and integrated into our education system.
If there is ever a swastika used, there is a good chance that a Mossad type individual planted it there in order to discredit those who oppose them. They clearly, want to have a one sided media parade, not an intellectual debate. They believe that they are chosen and have the right to use us to achieve their goal of occupying Jerusalem and rebuilding the Temple of Solomon. They also believe that the rest of the worlds population, (Gentiles), or 99.8% of the people on earth, are going to die in an apocalypse, and Jews are the only people with the right to survive. They have no moral obligation to help others or the environment. Religious fundamentalism at its worst.
yay, we love you back! Can people over there please learn to say 'Israel' and not 'Izreeyul'. It is actually pronounced as it is written. Takes a little practice.
yeah sure. % of homeless would grow fast. made it free from them why not for everyone? right
Canada is on the wrong side of history now
wrong again son
Please do not display ignorance. The Alpha Bet - is named for the first two letters of the Hebrew alphabet. All Western Laws are based upon the five books of Moses and the Talmud. They handed the ten commandments to Moses - these are for everyone - Jews learn of 613 laws in the bible. A role - like the central defining role that is the foundation for your later testament - The Pope calls Jews "elder brothers" - Shared values come from a source ....
You talk to Jews, you talk to Palestinians, but this is all wrong.
These are NOT relevant players to be asking on Canada's position.
Canadians, and what THEIR interests are is the only appropriate people to be speaking on the issue. This is the problem.
AFrican for Africans, Asia for Asians, White Countries for Everyone!! NO!
Jesus was poor, he didn't have a home or any possessions therefore he was materialistically poor. Jesus was a pacifist, what do you think he meant by "If a man strikes your left cheek, offer him the right one as well". If he wasn't when the Roman were crucifying him he would have obliterated their entire empire, but he didn't, because he was a pacifist.
Some people talk way too much!
I am totally opposed to the anexiono of Palestine to Israel as Israel proposed, Totally disliking the polices of Harper in Canada and Internationally before and now with the.conservative party that follows the same policies that Harper strongly impose by manipulation, deviance, and money. I am watching this program and I am horrified of this could come again. As I felt with the debate of the conservatives looking for the leader of the party..
how do you think about Liberals right now.
no thanks, I love Prime Minister Stephen Harper, our Christian (Jesus - Like) Leader
#weloveisraelandcanada #longliveisrael #deathtoislam
...poor goiym ...jews 're so smart .. :)
Go canada go!!
You guys voted for him lol.
ARE YOU KIDDING ME? He may believe in god and Christ, but do you actually think he follows Christ's principles? last time I checked, he doesn't really help out the poor which Jesus was. Food for all, medical care for all? Jesus also said to never see a man as an enemy, so taking one side or another is yet again breaking the golden rule, treat those as you wish to be treated.
There is a huge divide between people who believe in a religion, but do not follow its principles. Harper is no Christian
Still mad bro?
I don't want you to become a Christian, just try to love Jesus more.
This use of the term apartheid is an insult to the blacks in South Africa.
Apartheid was their special and unique tragedy. By using the term to describe an altogether different situation, you trivialize and degrade their suffering and the uniqueness of their particular experience. You should be ashamed.
Behold an explanation of apartheid. Learn something if at all possible.
watch?v=se5xTh8uwyo
No matter what Arabs think and do to destroy Israel, God will always be with Israel. God Harper and go Israel!
TF4ORMERS oh really? If God is with Israel why does it fight wars every five years on average?
I'm not Arab but I know my history, Israel stole palistine and killed and is still killing innocent people, they put them in a cage basically (gaza, West Bank) Compare that to our Native friends, natives have free healthcare, free post education, tax free, hectors of land, and there free to go and come as they please. Israel is trying to take over Canada now. No thanks!
yes Natives can do what they want but they are still poorer then EUropean descendents but natives have an advantage European Canadians don't have they can cross teh USA border anytime they like (Jay Treaty)
lol your juvenile ideas make me laugh
There is hate on both sides ,slime on both sides and good people on both sides.
sorry about your lack of education, i will pray for you. Let me inform you that Prime Minister is a Great Christian Leader of the Free World. You wish you could be like Him.
Jesus is the Best, and Israel is His Bride.
Christianity is the Greatest Religion
