And all these goddam meetings and rallies about the conditions in Gaza ... mere horse manure which allows folks to attend, feel good, and still do nothing. Oh, and it probably allows a bunch of anti-semites to crawl out of their holes and condemn Israelis without running the risk of being heckled down as Nazis.

Several Ontario hospitals which have pediatric expertise (Kingston General is one; and, of course, Sick Kids Hospital in TO) have offered to treat injured children free of charge (taxpayers' expense) and to arrange their transport. Now, that appears to be much more valuable than parading with posters and yelling anti-jewish slogans. Surprisingly
