Obviously, the charge of "dual loyalty" is a specious one under the current circumstances, where the interests of Israel and the Canadian government (as expressed by PM Harper) coincide.

Kudos to the PM for recognizing and articulating that the common enemy of both Israel and Canada is Islamic terrorism.

Now if only Mr. Harper could show his support further by sending even a small Canadian armed force or even civilians to help out the Americans and Brits in stabilizing Iraq.

"Now if only Mr. Harper could show his support further by sending even a small Canadian armed force or even civilians to help out the Americans and Brits in stabilizing Iraq. "

Actually there've been a few (e.g. 50-100) Canadian troops in Iraq all along due, in part, to various secondments, etc. between our Forces.

However, Harper's likely now played his hand about as far as he possibly can without a majority government.
Besides, our current re-building of our Military is of far more long term value to our allies than any mere symbolic gesture.
