Jewish human rights organization condemns Harper’s evangelical pro-Israel lobby
Archives "Montreal Muslim News Network" ****************** Canadian government forming pro-Israel lobby Feb 4, 2007 Canadian government forming pro-Israel lobby | Jerusalem Post The Canadian government is establishing an "Israel Allies Caucus" this week meant to mobilize support for the State of Israel and promote Judeo-Christian values amid a groundswell of Christian support for Israel around the world. The launching of the Canadian parliamentary lobby, which is based on the formation of the Knesset's "Christian Allies Caucus" three years ago, comes less than six months after a similar lobby was established in the US Congress. The establishment of the new pro-Israel lobby will be officially announced in Ottawa on Tuesday in the presence of Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper, Canadian and Israeli parliamentarians, including MK Benny Elon (National Union-National Religious Party) MK Orit Noked (Labor) and MK Ran Cohen (Meretz), as well as members of the Canadian-Israel Friendship League. The event comes at a time of burgeoning relations between Israel and the largely supportive evangelical Christian community around the world. "The launching of the Canadian Parliamentary Israel Allies Caucus is a sign of things to come," said Josh Reinstein, director of the Knesset's Christian Allies Caucus in an interview from Canada on Sunday. "We hope that one day every parliament and government around the world will form a sister caucus to the Knesset's Christian Allies Caucus which will mobilize support for Israel around the world and promote Judeo-Christian values." Over the next six months, similar parliamentary lobbies are expected to be established in the Philippines, South Korea, Malawi, South Africa and Finland. The increasingly influential Israeli parliamentary lobby, which is currently made up of 12 MKs from seven parties across the political spectrum, has come to epitomize Israel's newfound interest in garnering the support of the Christian world in the 21st century, especially the largely pro-Israel evangelical Christian community around the world, at a time when radical Islam is on the rise.

And the bulk of anti-Jewish stereotypes originate from the pre-Christian era, from the classical Greco-Roman antiquity. There must have been a reason why Jews were never liked anywhere... |

In my opinion, breaking the bond between a people and the place where they live is dangerous (I am not going to say blood and soil ). If you're just passing by or have no connection to a given place, why care about the people who live there? Especially if you belong to the Chosen People, and those other people do not.edit: Whatever. This turned out very sketchy. Sorry.

If I was a German, who knows what would I do, Germans have much bigger problem with immigration at the moment as my country, so I would probably think more about the present than past. IMO Germany has already passed the point of no return, there are simply just to few Germans and too many immigrants. |

Minors are not allowed to putsch as they have to be home at 10 p.m. and in bed with their teeth brushed at 10:30.
