Though I strongly condemn Israel's West Bank policies, I don't want the Canadian government to do so today. The UN resolution speaks for itself, and rubbing Israel's nose in it will not be helpful. 

It's a given that Israel will resist the resolution even though it was passed by Canada's closest allies, including the USA. The Canadian government can help best by working behind the scenes to bring Israel into compliance. And every Canadian can help by supporting the resolution through our actions here. Boycott Israeli goods. Divest yourself of any investments you have in Israeli companies or government bonds.

It wasn't pressure applied by foreign nations that brought an end to apartheid in South Africa. It fell instead to the simple decisions made by ordinary citizens around the world who were no longer willing to support the injustice.
