Fallout In Canada

Israel's war on Lebanon has created some spirited debates in Canada.


A bunch of Canadian politicians come to Lebanon in a fact finding mission. They are amazed by the amount of destruction they see and describe Israeli Actions as "state terror".
They go back to Canada, one of them dares ask the conservative government to remove Hezbollah from the Canadian list of Terrorist groups, and then suggests, in what a Canadian editorialist termed "musings", to hold talks with them.

What happens next? An uproar between those who are shamed by what they see as an "uncanadian" foreign policy of their new conservative government, and those who are now in power and support an internationally more assertive Canada

To be sure, two thirds of Canadians don't support talks with Hezbollah, but I must give to you, the other third is pretty noisy.
