CBS be dammed, they are just the messenger.

The bigger problem is people, so called Canadians, who think they can do this with impunity.

Sorry. I’m angry.

Billboard depicting Hezbollah’s controversial leader removed
CanWest News Service
Published: Monday, August 13, 2007

WINDSOR, Ont. - The billboard depicting Hezbollah’s controversial leader, which caused an uproar across Windsor, was quietly replaced Monday morning with an advertisement for a car dealership.

The sign was erected Friday morning and immediately drew fire from the Windsor Jewish Community Centre and the Lebanese Christian political group Kataeb.

Among other Lebanese leaders, the sign prominently depicted Hassan Nasrallah, the head of the political and military group representing Shia Muslims.

Hezbollah, considered a terrorist organization by Ottawa, was created in 1982 primarily to resist the Israeli occupation of Lebanon that lasted two decades.

One of the sign’s opponents, Harvey Kessler, executive director of the Windsor Jewish Community Centre, said the sign was “the opposite of peace.”

Calm down, fanfan, the billboard was replaced, as indicated by a photo on the other thread.

And, by the way, let's congratulate the Ford dealership in Windsor who did the new advertisement. Without their sponsorship, there would be nothing to replace Nasrollah's ugly face and message.
