to support Canadian troops in Afghanistan. Now I believe this is a neo con idea. There is a big hullabaloo this week about Cdn Prime Minister Harper being a Bush Mini Me when it comes to speaking to the "liberal" Canadian press. He walked out on them last week. There is an excellent article in The Toronto Star yesterday.

This is the same belief ideology of the American neocons who signed the PNAC letter in 1998 to Clinton to invade Iraq. These same signers, most of them, are in the George W. Bush administration or support it. I am deeply concerned that neoconservatives are now trying to control Canada. Fortunately Harper has a minority government and there is a strong possibility that an election will be called within two years. Now knowing that he is a Strauss disciple I am will be very, very active in getting his out of power and unelected. I strongly urge DU readers to find and watch the documentary THE RISE OF THE RELIGIOUS RIGHT to get an idea of the insanity this man professes. We have extremists who are ruling our countries.
I want to support the Canadian troops who were tricked by the American administration that the Afghanistan situation was quieted and in control. What a crock the Americans fed Canada. But Harper is Bush's me and a member of his elite force. Canada just lost a soldier a couple weeks ago in Afghanistan. My federal MP wrote me how the American soldiers roll through villages in Afghanistan with their skull and crossbones on their tanks, making fun of Canadian soldiers who are building roads and schools for the Afghanistan people.
Today we see the feelings the Afghan's have for the American soldiers with a riot over a traffic accident caused by American military in Kabul .
