The following statement was made by the Prime Minister of Canada in response to the situation in Israel [Link: pm.gc.ca]. STATEMENT BY THE PRIME MINISTER OF CANADA [edit] Ottawa, Ontario 13 July 2014.

"The indiscriminate rocket attacks from Gaza on Israel are terrorist acts, for which there is no justification. It is evident that Hamas is deliberately using human shields to further terror in the region. Failure by the international community to condemn these reprehensible actions would encourage these terrorists to continue their appalling actions. Canada calls on its allies and partners to recognize that these terrorist acts are unacceptable and that solidarity with Israel is the best way of stopping the conflict. Canada is unequivocally behind Israel. We support its right to defend itself, by itself, against these terror attacks, and urge Hamas to immediately cease their indiscriminate attacks on innocent Israeli civilians. Canada reiterates its call for the Palestinian government to disarm Hamas and other Palestinian terrorist groups operating in Gaza, including the Iranian proxy, Palestinian Islamic Jihad."

Bravo! Where is the UK's similar statement? Where is Obama's? Where were the lefty protests when similar numbers died every day in Syria? As for most of the MSM...

Overly optimistic...

In 2012 there was lots of news about press reform, media control etc. In the UK we have seen more than our fair share with the Leverson Inquiry seen by many as a complete balls-up in that it appeared more a patent lefty and sleb guided attempt with a seemingly sole raison d'être to muzzle/castigate Rupert Murdoch and bash the Conservatives (this was 'innocent' government bashing but of course with no mention of the government that presided over the descent into the mire).



Elsewhere other press reform is requested: "Every January, people around the world take stock of themselves and resolve to improve in the new year, vowing to break bad habits and form good ones. In 2013, CAMERA would like news media to do the same and we suggest the following 13 for '13...". I think the Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting in America is being overly optimistic; however I agree with them and believe many in Europe, the UK and the BBC should read [edit], should realise it means them and should stop misreporting.
