Canada mired in the fake war on terror
1) Al Jazeera picks up the Mohamed Harkat case; 2) Afghanistan: Canadians not told the truth; 3) Red Friday sees red; 4) Anti-Zionist Jews: "The times they are a changin'"; 5) Is Montreal vulnerable to a false flag event?

1)  Al Jazeera picks up the Mohamed Harkat case

NEW VIDEO:
Canadian law leaves Muslims under house arrest

As Sophie Harkat says, "It's about time that other countries picked it up."
Abolish the Security Certificate!

================

2) Afghanistan: Canadians not told the truth

IMPORTANT ARTICLE
posted by John in the Reader Comments section:  Spiegel: Why NATO Troops Can't Deliver Peace in Afghanistan ... anyone seeking success stories or asking about failures will encounter reports that do not seem to be coming from the same country.

ISAF Commander Dan McNeill comes across pretty much as a raving lunatic, repeating the mantra of how women have been liberated and children are going to school. "All neighboring countries are interested in regional stability," he babbles, even though he knows - or perhaps because he knows -  a different scenario will come out at the grand shura, a general meeting of local Afghan administrators, in "reports meant for the Afghan and not the Western public".

At that gathering neighbouring countries are blamed for the difficulty of winning this war, but McNeill tells these people who know the truth first hand that "things are moving forward".

And get this (Underlining mine):
The narcotics agents routinely face enemy fire. The drug mafia's militias, the Taliban and al-Qaida, launch perfectly planned counterattacks, almost as if someone had faxed them the government forces' plans in advance.
The aim of a select group of entities, calling the shots on behalf of senior Bush's dream of a New World Order, is to wage perpetual war.  Eventually, the people in the NATO countries will realize this, but it will not bring back any of the dead.

Jihad Unspun says that 12 Canadian soldiers died in the recent four-day blitz, "Operation Rolling Thunder", but our military reports no deaths. (See: "Operation Dud" or much, much worse? June 01, item #2)

A couple of days later, in a period of calm, our military reports this:

4 Cdn. soldiers, interpreter wounded in Afghanistan (Canwest)

But "for reasons of privacy" the names of the soldiers are not being mentioned. 
That should read "for reasons of secrecy", because we are not being told any truth at all about this war by the military or our government.

Then we get this:
Fallen Canadian soldier honoured by comrades in Kandahar (CBC)

The CBC is very short on details, but we have to assume he was one of the four injured soldiers noted above.  The typical comment is attributed to his parents - that he was doing what he wanted to so.  Yet it is then revealed that he wanted to get a "less dangerous" job.

We also get this from the propaganda tool Voice of America:

US-Led Coalition Kills 12 Insurgents in Southern Afghanistan

There's that number 12 again, but these US soldiers were on a "humanitarian mission", not taking part in "Operation Rolling Thunder".  Two things this article does:  It turns the Jihad Unspun article around, and it makes the soldiers look like real good guys, attacked for no reason.

============

3) Red Friday sees red

It's finally dawned on me why the Red Friday organization is miffed about this:

Show of patriotism pays tribute to fallen soldiers (Star)
Media controversy surrounding organizer dampens turnout

Procession to honour fallen soldiers angers critics (CTV)

I think it's because instead of waving the flag and gushing about how our soldiers are winning the fight to liberate Afghanistan, this group showed that Canadian soldiers are dying over there, and that's a big no-no..

Harper always mutters his ritual condolences, but that's the end of it.  He won't even lower the flag to half mast.  This motor rally was not government sanctioned, and if we needed any more proof that Harper was the instigator behind the Red Friday concept this is it.  I can't help wondering what promises were made to the military wives who consented to get Red Friday up and running.

A further indication is that only Red Friday events, such as the one held at the Toronto Ex last summer, receive public praise from the government and military:
T.O. Red Rally draws praise from MacKay, Hillier (CTV)

4) Anti-Zionist Jews: "The times they are a changin'"

You must read these two articles written by young Jewish people if you want to know why I now have a glimmer of hope that the Israeli/Palestinian conflict may be on its way to resolution.  David Mandelzys is currently working in South America, but is looking forward to re-joining the Ottawa coaltion campaigning for a just peace in Palestine, and Lia Tarachansky is already heavily involved in local activism with the coalition.

Mandelzys: Heating Up: The Battle for the Jewish voice and the Jewish soul (Culture Magazine) ... we have grown up now, and like our Christian peers who come to understand Santa Claus is not real, the growing majority of us have come to see myth of Israel the good as a relic of our childhood Chanukahs.

This article reveals probably the greatest danger to Israel and to Jews in the diaspora: "Will it really be a surprise if, when shit hits the fan, our supposed allies in the US/Canadian elite cut Israel’s strings and point the blame at home towards Jews?"

As you saw in the Spiegel article on Afghanistan, that's exactly what the US does when it can't show the taxpayer it is winning - it blames other countries.  In that way it creates new enemies to ensure enough world chaos that the citizens of all nations will eventually look to some sort of central agency stronger than the puppet UN to solve their problems.  And then the New World Order will have succeeded.

Evangelicals who hypocritically support Israel because they believe it will hasten the return of Jesus, delude themselves into thinking  there are actually Christians heading up their governments. Neither Bush nor Harper believe in the return of the Messiah; they believe only in "white" power returns.  No one is their friend, no one is their ally once their usefulness disappears.

So do the Jews have anything to lose by following their conscience?
The kids are coming home! All those ‘self-hating’ Jews who isolated themselves from the community not because of a dislike for our culture, heritage, or religion, but because they were told to leave after speaking their mind on the oppression of the Palestinian people, are finding each other, organizing, and coming back.
I was at a going away party for Ben Saifer the other night.  He's the organizer for NION-Ottawa (See: Jews and Arabs are United), but for the next couple of months he's going to be helping ICAHD re-build Palestinian homes that have been demolished by Israeli bulldozers.
I'm one of the supporters called "others", neither Jew nor Arab, but at the party Lia Tarachansky dubbed me an honourary Jew - a radical honourary Jew -  and it was seconded by all. 
I forgot to ask if I'm also "self-hating".

Lia's excellent article points out the shift in Canada's approach to the Israel/Palestine conflict, and contains a report of a recent teach-in on Palestine with speakers both Jewish and Arab:

Tarachansky: Jews for Palestine (Dominion)
[PM Harper's] flamboyant support [for israel] stands in stark contrast to Canada's historical record of siding with the majority of the world, whose national representatives have consistently voted at the UN General Assembly for an end to Israel's occupation of the West Bank and Gaza.


It's very important for Canadians to realize that they, because of their government, are particpating in genocide in the Middle East, for no other purpose than establishing a world government that will be fascist in character and that will herd and control its citizens to serve elitists who have been working for decades toward this end.

This ruling class, as they see themselves, have determined that a common enemy causes the people to look to government for protection, and the current common enemy is Islam.  The  arrests in Canada, for instance, of Muslims accused of being "sleeper agents" for Al Qaeda, was intended to reinforce the enemy image.

As needed, new enemies, new allies will be found and others discarded.  The media will take care of gradually re-fixing in our minds who is currently the enemy or ally.  Half of the people will be mentally traumatised enough to swallow the propaganda outright; the rest will be dealt with by government.

5) Is Montreal vulnerable to a false flag event?

There's a video you probably should see. Montreal, The Next Terror Target?  It's an amateur production from Quebec, and it's partisan in favour of the Canadian Action Party who take sole credit for exposing in Canada this aspect of the New World agenda, but it's very close to home, and the research on the vulnerability to CIA/Mossad activity in Montreal's transit system is impressive. If the need to reinforce support for unending war arises, Montreal could easily be the target of a false flag attack.
