from the Toronto Star:

"Let's concentrate for a second on the plight of Lebanon now that a fragile ceasefire has taken hold:

Thousands of civilian casualties. Nearly a quarter of the population forced from their homes. An offshore oil spill that may be worse than the Exxon Valdez. The demolition of roads, bridges, power stations, entire neighbourhoods. Hospitals without medicine. Villages lacking food. Isn't that the heart of this terrible story?

Maybe you disagree with me, and with most Quebecers. Maybe you insist that Israel's determination to conquer Hezbollah outweighs the enormous suffering inflicted on the people of Lebanon.

Fine. But if so, please don't call us anti-Semitic."
