Stephen Harper laid a smackdown on the United Nations and questioned their presence in the Middle East warzone.
“We want to find out why this United Nations post was attacked and also why it remained manned during what is now, more or less, a war during obvious danger to these individuals,” he told reporters.
Asked about UN head Kofi Annan’s statement suggesting Israel had targeted the outpost, Harper said: “I certainly doubt that to be the case.”
I can just picture Kofi Annan fuming right now and asking himself when Canada got a backbone.
I think it was the morning of January 24th, 2006.
