As you can see above, I said it was acceptable until..... etc. " No, what I did was show that Canada has, since 11 December, 2002, considered Hezbollah a terrorist organization. Veronica's prejudice is to claim that before then, Canada considered Hezbollah acceptable, and that it is on the list only because a Jewish group spoke up. What Veronica needs to show is evidence that Canada, in some official form, accepted Hezbollah before that date. Perhaps Veronica could point us towards some awards or such that the Canadian government bestowed on Hezbollah functionaries? Also, the 'Entities List' is not a whimsical roll that is added to because some pressure group speaks up. Perhaps Veronica could point us towards the evidence for lobbying pressure? I look forward to whatever facts Veronica might provide us, since as a Canadian I have something at stake in such claims. And I am sure that Veronica would not toss such accusations around without facts to back them up.
