An Open Letter to the Right Hon. Mr. Paul Martin,

MP. Prime Minister, Ottawa.

Nov. 22, 2005

Dear Mr. Martin:

We find your statement, before the Annual General Assembly of United Jewish Communities that "Israel's values are Canadian values", stunning and totally unacceptable.

Israeli policies and practices are in complete violation of international law. Israel stands in defiance of scores of UN and Security Council resolutions. Israeli practices in the illegally occupied Palestinian and Syrian territories are in violation of virtually every article of the Fourth Geneva Convention, and thus defined by international law as war crimes. Israeli racist practices against its own Muslim and Christian citizens demonstrate clearly the most blatant forms of racism and discrimination. Many of their towns and villages, which have existed for centuries, are unrecognised and thus denied all health and educational facilities. Many Muslim and Christian citizens of Israel are labelled present absentees, and thus their land is expropriated. Where, except in the Zionist Lexicon, would you find such Orwellian definitions?! Israeli laws are based on religious discrimination, where its non-Jewish citizens, Muslims and Christians, are denied rights and privileges available to Jewish citizens.

Are these, in your opinion, our Canadian values? If that is so, we are afraid you are devaluing our Canadian values. We, as Canadian citizens, believe that our Canadian values are honourable and do not deserve this offensive equation.

Yours sincerely,

Ismail Zayid, MD.

President, Canada Palestine Association.

Qatar Caper: Bush Boys & Al-Jazeera TV

Bush Talked to Blair of Bombing Al-Jazeera TV in the US Ally Country of Qatar

 

Yo Chaplain Chase (and other Ghost Troop officers in the TO line),

Here's a bit of news about Bush Boyz assassination aims vis-a-vis Al-Jazeera, in April 2003, no less! It turns out that in mid-April, 2003, Boy George was itching to bomb Al-Jazeera in Qatar! My hunch is that the boy-king was pissed because the Al-Jazeera crew had been broadcasting the Battle of Baghdad while the US Quislings had been lying with the Private Jessica Lynch scam! I know you weren't in country at the time, but as you're heading up US affairs there nowadays, I thought you'd wanna know what's coming out on topics before your time. Here's the link to the article:

http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20051122/pl_afp/qatarusbritainmediajazeera 

As you know, all this info about US black ops concurs with my essay of April, 2003 "3/7 Cavalry, tragedy and travesty," containing my surmises (to that point in time) about the infowar, including some intel I had just then received about how the "accidental" shootings of Arab media in the Battle of Baghdad wasn't so accidental! I still remember how the Houston Chronicle was most anxious to have received that particular op-ed from me, and how Frank Michel, then the associate editor, made sure to put it under lock and seal with all the Chronicle editorial board witnessing. I think there's been a lot of fear of violent death floating around in the infowar, my friend! Hmm..., I guess now it's becoming more and more clear whence that fear issued.

Since Arab journalists have tried to report the war as news, while American presstitutes have been chasing the Reifenstahl Award, I am pleased to be able to give the Al-Jazeerah.info copy of the essay I mention above:

Battle of Baghdad Al-Jazeerah.info (May, 2004).  Yours, Eric

 

PS:  Here are my other two Al-Jazeerah.info essays:
