ACTION ALERT
Do you want Canadian MPs promoting the interests of a foreign country, especially one that is flouting UN Resolutions? Shouldn't our MPs be standing up for justice and international law? Do we want our flag distorted in this way?

Dear Prime Minister,
You have heard many Canadians, myself included, comment on the Members of Parliament within your cabinet who are a virtual lobby for Israel, and have therefore undue access to decision-makers. While there are many friendship clubs and associations on the Hill, the Liberal Members of Parliament for Israel go beyond friendship and identify themselves not as a Canada-Israel friendship group or association, but as a group "for Israel."
This is reflected in the attached flyer announcing the reception they are holding in the Westin Hotel on March 5th, where pre-eminence is clearly given to the Israeli flag above the Canadian flag.
I hope that you will feel as outraged as I am. Canada should always come first.
Sincerely,
Bahija Réghaï

{Invite (mankind, O Muhammad ) to the Way of your Lord (i.e. Islam) with wisdom (i.e. with the Divine Inspiration and the Qur'an) and fair preaching, and argue with them in a way that is better. Truly, your Lord knows best who has gone astray from His Path, and He is the Best Aware of those who are guided.}
(Holy Quran-16:125)
{And who is better in speech than he who [says: "My Lord is Allah (believes in His Oneness)," and then stands straight (acts upon His Order), and] invites (men) to Allah's (Islamic Monotheism), and does righteous deeds, and says: "I am one of the Muslims."} (Holy Quran-41:33)
The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "By Allah, if Allah guides one person by you, it is better for you than the best types of camels." [al-Bukhaaree, Muslim]
The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) also said, "Whoever calls to guidance will have a reward similar to the reward of the one who follows him, without the reward of either of them being lessened at all."
[Muslim, Ahmad, Aboo Daawood, an-Nasaa'ee, at-Tirmidhee, Ibn Maajah]
