Galloway and JDL Leader Meir Weinstein

Here's a great YouTube video from Channel 4 News in Britain. It's an exchange between George Galloway and Meir Weinstein, the "Director of the Jewish Defense League of Canada". This exchange between Galloway and Weinstein is an embarrassment to this country. That Weinstein and his organization can claim to have policy impact on the Conservative government of Canada is shameful especially when considered in light of these two points:

1. Weinstein and the JDL, in this video, claim they will "look into" those who had invited Galloway to Canada. This should not sit well with the 2.9 million members of Canada's largest Protestant denomination, the United Church...

2. The JDL is considered a Terrorist Group by the US State Department and the FBI.

Jewish Defense League taking credit for Galloway ban

It seems that the Jewish Defense League of Canada is claiming credit for having George Galloway barred from entering Canada. The Conservatives are claiming that they have not interfered with the Border Services Agency. But they seem very keen on listing all of the reasons why Galloway should not be allowed in. The "infandous street-corner Cromwell" line is getting a lot of negative attention in the British media. "Infandous" is such a self-aggrandizing and pretentious word that it's not in our office dictionary nor is it recognized by my spellcheck. Way to go Alykahn Velshi!

One thing that seems to be lacking in the Macleans article is noting that while "Hamas is listed as a terrorist organization in Canada", The Jewish Defense League is listed as a terrorist organization in the United States.
