From “Michelle’s World” blog (hat tip to: Rav)

My ResignationAs President of the Thornhill Young Liberals and as a delegate from the riding of Thornhill, I stand by Susan Kadis MP in her decision to resign as GTA Co-Chair of the Michael Ignatieff Campaign. I do believe Michael to be a strong leader but unfortunately at this time, I cannot reconcile his recent statements characterizing Israel’s action in response to the kidnapping of its soldiers as a “war crime”. As a matter of conscience, I, like Susan, am resigning as Director of Strategy and Operations for Ontario.
Among the many choice comments from fellow tolerant compassionate multicultural-luvin’ liberals after reading her blog entry:
At 2:28 PM, Ottawa Liberal said…
I can’t believe this. You Jews are unreal. Why can’t we ever have a civil discussion about Israel’s conduct without your tribe throwing a hissy fit. Grow up and stop acting like the world owes you everything. I’m not a big fan of “Iggy” but enough is enough. If Jews want to be opportunistic and abandon the Liberal Party while we’re down, then so be it, leave. Maybe then Canadian liberals could concentrate on how to make Canada a better country vis-vis the environment and social justice, for example, rather than focusing on some foreign country in the middle of the desert. I’m so angry right now…..After everything the Liberal Party has done for Jews over the years, their conduct over the past few months has really left a sour taste in my mouth. The Lobby will probably come after me and destroy my professional career after this rant, but I really needed to get this off my chest…. Back to work.
