I have no problem if someone calls the Gaza a "concentration camp." If I could take a literal definition, a concetration camp concentrates people into one or more areas in a prison like atmosphere. The living conditions may be unbearable and intolerable. The camps needs not be a death camp through execution. People could die through starvation, disease, or hypo/hyperthermia.
The Nazis have not been the only ones to have conentration camps. Believe it or not, Canadians had concentration camps for Japanese Canadians. We just like to call these camps, "internment camps." How nice?
I've posted elsewhere this evening that perhaps a new blog aggregator for "Progressive" Canadian political blogs is called for - as opposed to an aggregator for "Liberal" blogs. Why be beholden to one man's biases?
I like Buzzflash for progressive American news. I've been using Google Reader to read progressive blogs myself. While LibBlogs has a plethora of postings to read, I think a better job could be done.
I'd donate both money and time to the creation of such a progressive entity.
It's called 'Progressive Bloggers'. Yeah, I know, you have to put up with all those annoying Dippers and Greens and unaffiliated rabble, but at least your voice is heard, uncensored and unfiltered.
Perhaps it's time for someone to create a new liblogs for Liberal Party supporters?
ReplyDeleteMrvnMouse, I agree. I do not have computer savvy or time to start one.
ReplyDeleteCherniak's hatred is spreading. Now Vatican Church bothers him

ReplyDeleteDid he remove the entire post LeDaro or just the image?
ReplyDeleteIf it was the entire post then it was not the picture but the content of what you wrote in the post.
