Liberal MPP calls Israel ‘rogue’ state

Liberal MPP opens mouth, spews ignorance:

Ottawa-Orleans MPP Phil McNeely yesterday called Israel a “rogue state,” and said the federal government should apologize to Canadians for its support of the Jewish state’s “collective punishment” of the people in Gaza and Lebanon.

He then followed up with this,

Mr. McNeely waded into the volatile Middle East conflict with stinging criticism of everyone from former U.S. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger to U.S. President George W. Bush and Prime Minister Stephen Harper, whom he called a puppet of the U.S. leader. He said it may be dangerous to speak out, but he feels so strongly about what is going on in the Middle East that he couldn’t remain silent.

“I believe the Harper government, which receives its foreign policy from David Frum direct from George Bush, should apologize to the Canadian people for their support of the collective punishment of people first in Gaza and now in Lebanon,” he said in an e-mail obtained by the Citizen. “As an elected member of Parliament I cannot believe that the democratically elected members of Hamas have been captured and imprisoned by this rogue state.”

Maybe he and Carolyn Bennett read the same Chomsky book…

I suggest everyone head on over to McNeely’s website and ask for his resignation.
