Letter to Lucien Bouchard, Quebec PM 50 anniversary Gala of the creation of Israel, by: Mohamed Kamel

Montreal, April 16, 2000

Mr. Lucien Bouchard;

Prime Minster of Québec

Dear Mr. Bouchard;

Your attendance of the 50 anniversary Gala of the creation of Israel is a mater of public relation that no one in your position can refuse to participate in.

Attending an event is something different than speaking, because the speech is your creation and a speech is represent the speaker and his people, not himself personally.

It is too sad to found a person in your position does not recognize the different between the facts and the nice words.

In your speech terrible mistakes that can not be at any time close to facts or even personal point of view.

I will take some examples from the speech to show you how fare you went without take a time to distinguish between the history, the facts and the points of view.

1- in your speech you refer to the Hebrew language stating that  “Israel is the only country in the world where the children play in the language of the prophets”

There are 20 Arab Country with population of 140 million their children play for more then 1400 years in the in the language of the Prophet “Mohamed” the Arabic Language that belongs to more than 1 Billion Muslim in the world.

2- in your speech you refer to the creation of Israel with democratic way!

I wonder, how any one can mention that neglecting that the history of Israel starts form Balfour declaration for a land for the Jews people in Palestine.  Then the immigration of the Jews without acceptance form the original People and the using the Holocaust fact to destroy people and take their land.

Mr. Bouchard, Israel is a country of 5 million where 1.5 million of them are Arab live there with no right of ownership and more than 3 million out side has no right to return to their homes.  Is that what you consider a democratic society, I hope that you will not apply this on us Québecer and Canadian.

3- in your attendance the Ambassador of Israel to USA has mention that they never took one inch of land that not belongs to them.

It could be a point of view of one person but who many UN resolutions had condemn Israel for the occupation of the Arab lands. Is there is any country can condemn the Arab for occupation of a land that not belong to them?

Mr. Bouchard;

Sham on me to be a Québecer Canadian and not respond to the lies and the misleading of the people.

Misleading the people is a very easy task but one can full the people in many occasions even for long time but never be able to full the people all the times.
