If you didn't pick Israel, A Democracy is not for you. You want to live with like-minded people in autocratic, theocratic, despotic countries

Will that be Qatar or Israel?

Imagine a world where the West is under water and the only places to live are in the Middle East and North Africa. The countries are opening their doors for you. I know that’s a big stretch of one’s imagination but go with me. You will be accorded all the rights and freedoms the citizens of those countries receive. You will be as one with them.

  • So, your child is gay. Will that be Qatar or Israel?
  • Your child has challenges-physical and/or mental. Will that be Iraq or Israel?
  • A member of your family has cancer or heart disease. Will that be Lebanon or Israel?
  • You want your children exposed to all kinds of people; different races, colours ethnicities. Will that be Bahrain or Israel?
  • You want to raise your family in the religion in which they were raised. Will that be Saudi Arabia or Israel?
  • It’s 45C .You want to spend time on the beach. Playing in the sand, splashing in the water. You have a wife and daughters. Each wants to wear a bathing suit, perhaps a bikini. Will that be Afghanistan or Israel?
  • You like cocktail parties, or a beer after working outside on a hot day. Will that be Yemen or Israel?
  • Your children have been known to smoke a joint or two. Will that be Israel or one of the Emirates?
If you answered Israel to these questions, but attend rallies against Israel or do not defend Israel, ask yourselves why.
  • Do you go to rallies against the wanton murder of Muslims by Muslims in the Middle East: in Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran, Africa?
  • Or the vicious killing of Christians in Muslim countries-especially in Iraq and Syria and Egypt?
  • Or rallies calling for the end of killing gay people in places like Iran, or calling for the end of barbaric punishments for gay people in every Muslim country?
If not, why not? For those of you who answered any country but Israel, I suggest our countries are not for you. Canada and the USA have a history of calling to people who thirst for freedom: peace, order and good government, and life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. These immigrants bring with them their music, poetry, food and wine, their gratitude, and history, not to be forgotten so that it will never be repeated. If you didn't pick Israel, you don’t want to live in a multi-ethnic society. The freedoms afforded to all are not what you want. Democracy is not for you. You want to live with like-minded people in autocratic, theocratic, despotic countries that tell you how to live each moment of your life and have “police” on the street to ensure that you,especially the women, behave accordingly. It is time for you to accept the fact that you made a mistake. We all make mistakes. Thankfully, your mistake can be easily rectified. Pack up your family. Leave Canada and the USA immediately and return to the countries that call to you. And based on your war cries and posters, and tweets you certainly do not want to live with Jews. You shouldn’t have to feel uncomfortable because of the presence of Jews. You should move to a country where there are no Jews. And there is a plethora from which to choose: The Muslim countries of the Middle East and Northern Africa, to name a few. No fear of bumping into a Jew pig or ape. No freedoms either, but you can’t have everything.
