The "Rabid" Rage of Israel's Enemies
(National Post-Canada) Robert Fulford - Haroon Siddiqui wrote in the Toronto Star of Canadian Prime Minister "Stephen Harper's rabid pro-Israeli stance." Oxford defines "rabid" as "Furious, raging; wildly aggressive." Doesn't sound like Stephen Harper. He's cool and careful. He finds it unfair that so much criticism is directed by others against "the one country of the global community whose very existence is threatened." He also draws a lesson from history: Those who choose the Jewish people "as a target of racial and religious bigotry will inevitably be a threat to all of us." He believes those who target Israel also threaten "all free and democratic societies."
