Found on Flickr – Elizabeth May speaking at an anti-Israel rally
Some random photos found on Flickr from a protest in 2006 – recognize the woman at the top? Elizabeth May, leader of the Green Party. This is from the notorious anti-Israel/pro-Hezbollah rally in Toronto during the Lebanon War. Scroll below to see why that rally was notorious.
This appearance of hers likely slipped under the radar as no one knew who she was back then. We know who she is now, so doesn’t she have some explaining to do – especially seeing as she’s quick to crackdown on the appearance of anti-Semitism…
The sign reads: ‘Down with Zionism, USA, UK’
The fellow in the turban is Hassan Nasrallah, head of Hezbollah. The flag of Hezbollah is obscured by the kid with the keffiyah headband.
The t-shirts read “Hezbollah”

I’m not disputing that the rally was anti-Israel, just the hezbollah connection.

“Upon learning that Johnson had arranged a meeting in Washington on June 7th with Egypt’s VP, Zacharia Mohieddin, and learning that the Americans had worked out a deal with Nasser to allow Israel access to the Straits of Tiran, Eshkol et al., fearing they would lose an opportunity to occupy more Arab land, broke their pledge and invaded Egypt by land and air. ”
Why was the Straits blockaded in the first place?
Was it to appease the war-monging Israelis?

[...] I know some certain unnamed knee-jerk reactionaries might want to look at the pictures on that Elizabeth May post and run with it. But to say she’s Anti-Israeli, that kind of interpretation is like a [...]
