The views of Dr. Pipes are not welcome in left wing Canada

The brave Dr. Pipes is on target, as usual. Americans are very fortunate to have someone like that who is both a thinker and a writer.

Up here in Canada, Dr Pipes might not even be allowed to pass through our customs officers, given the fact that he is not a left wing socialist, he is not an appeaser of the Muslim world and not an internationalist -- that is, one who needs to seek of the views of countries like France, Russia, China and Cuba -- countries held in high regard by present and past politicians ( Pierre Trudeau, Jean CHretien) and media pundits ( Michael Harris@CFRA in Ottawa et al).

At the same time, we welcome Fidel Castro ( funeral of Pierre Trudeau), Palestinian militants, Holocaust deniers and French speaking Europeans in favor of Quebec separatism and draconian language laws.

Canada used to be a good friend to America and Americans ( helping Americans during Iran hostage crisis) but recent surveys have shown that a majority of Canadians supported Prime Minister Jean Chretien's opinion that Americans are partly to blame for the attack of war on Sept 11, 2001. I APOLOGIZE FOR HIS IDIOTIC VIEWS.

God Bless America, her soldiers, her President and Dr. PIpes.
