The Ottowa Citizen newspaper is reporting that the government of Canada has quitely attempted to remove a government and a UN report on Israel's deliberate targetting of a UN peacekeeping compound that resulted in the death of a Canadian soldier.
The Defence Department has quietly removed from the Internet a report into the killing of a Canadian military officer by Israeli forces, a move the soldier’s widow says is linked to the Conservative government’s reluctance to criticize Israel for any wrongdoing.
Maj. Paeta Hess-von Kruedener and three other United Nations observers were killed in 2006 when the Israeli military targeted their small outpost with repeated artillery barrages as well as an attack by a fighter aircraft.
The Canadian peacekeeper had been writing home about Israeli war crimes before he was killed by the Israelis.
Robert Fisk has been taking it easy on Iran/Ahmedinejad recently, you might even say has shown sympathy.

Actually even Zahra Kazemi could not escape pro-Israeli consorship in Canada because an exhibition of her work was shut down since it displayed the plight of Palestinian refugees and so was deemed too anti-Israel. http://www.ifex.org/canada/2005/06/10/pen_canada_protests_censorship/
Kazemi was only useful as an anti-Iran figure.

Compare this behavior of Canada to its reaction to Zahra Kazemi's death in an Iranian jail! Recall, Canadian officials' crocodile tears for many years! Daily demonstrations in front of the Iranian Embassy in Ottawa organized by the Canadian government! Canada even tried unsuccessfully to take this minor incident to the UNSC! All of this theatrics and charlatanism from racist-supremacist regime of Canada which has mass-murdered millions of Aborigines people over the past centuries and has been illegally occupying 10 million square kilometers of Aborigines' Homeland.

Too bad the UN observation post was rushed by Hizballah terrorists... Had these terrorists stayed away from the UN observation post nothing would have happened to the UN personnel...
