Comment on the Globe - Monday - Aug 10th

What a headline. Perhaps Instead of "Harper blames Canada for visa furor' they could have put, "Harper unable to amend Immigration Act with a minority government" or at least something which doesn't lead to incitement against Harper. I don't remember the NY Times haven't headlines like "Obama blames the U.S. for everything" at the Cairo conference - although that certainly was a possibility. Clearly the Globe is a "Liberal" paper and its editorial policy is anti-Conservative.
There are 4 letters to the editor supporting the United Church's position and saying that the church is not anti-semitic because it criticizes Israel. There is also one neutral letter. Contrary to what those letters say, it is not the criticism of Israel that is anti-semitic, it is the choosing of only Israel to criticize that leads one to think that anti-semitism has crept into the church. Similarly it is the Globe's publishing of 5 letters against Israel's position, and none that supports it, that leads me to think that the Globe's position is anti-Israel.
