Stephen Harper and Israel

Stephen Harper and Israel 

The Prime Minister of Canada Mr Stephen Harper has stated the following at a 'Negev Dinner' in December of 2013; prior to a visit to Israel, on January 17, 2014.  

“A light of freedom and democracy in what is otherwise a region of darkness.” 

What the Prime Minister is saying is 'Israel' is the 'light' and all other countries in this region are the 'dark' (evil). 

Based on Mr Stephen Harper, the following countries, who are neighbours of 'Israel' are the 'dark'. 

Lebanon,

Egypt,

Irak,

Iran,

Saudi Arabia,

Turkey,

Syria,

Jordan,

Yemen, 

Cyprus, &

Libya.  

I will stop here, at the supposedly the  'dark' countries.  I am sure that Mr Stephen Harper could add another dozen countries to this list. 

I do not believe the Prime Minister of Canada, Mr Stephen Harper should make these 'ignorant' comments.  Also, I do believe he is 'alienating' Canada from the world.    

Sincerely, 

Ben
