Mr. Speaker, it sounds like we hit a nerve, and that minister hit a nerve with the Canada-Israel committee last week when he suggested that in fact the Israelis are guilty of escalation when what they are guilty of is defending their security.
How can this minister continue to suggest that they are putting pressure on the Palestinians when they are continuing to finance the Palestinian authority through CIDA and when they have not yet banned Hezbollah?
When will this minister put serious pressure on Yasser Arafat so that he knows that his continued sponsorship and toleration of terrorism will not be accepted by this country?
