Harper complicit in death of Canadian UN observer:
Canadian Peace Alliance supports protests this Sat. July 29

July 26, 2006

Another Canadian has been killed by Israeli bombing in Lebanon. This time the victim was one of four UN observors killed in Lebanon by what UN head Kofi Annan characterized as an "apparently deliberate" attack.

"These latest deaths as a result of Israeli bombing only make Harper's refusal to criticize Israel more inexcusable," explained Canadian Peace Alliance coordinator Sid Lacombe.

"The 'measured' response that Harper asserted Israel was undertaking has now claimed nearly 400 Lebanese civilian lives, as well as dozens of Palestinians as part of the ongoing siege of Gaza."

The Canadian Peace Alliance, the largest network of peace coalitions and organizations in Canada, is adding its endorsement to protests that will be taking place this Saturday, July 29, in a number of cities.
