Dear Editor:
A few weeks ago, I asked MP Michael Chong if his concern for the Uyghurs in China extended to oppressed Muslims elsewhere.
I am surprised how quickly I got my answer. Last week, the Liberals and Tories refused to even support a call for a ceasefire in Israel (a mere token gesture). In spite of the number of Palestinians killed and Israel’s illegal occupation of the West Bank, your fearless leader, O’Toole, threw his full support behind the Israeli occupiers.
My anger goes out particularly to O’Toole himself. My mother always said any true Irishman was always on the side of the underdog. We have a name for the O’Tooles, Mulroneys, and Reagans of the world, but discretion keeps me from putting it to paper. As for you, Mr. Chong, you are a hypocrite.
T. Patrick Doyle,
