Levy is also sickened by the vigilists' highly selective opprobrium:
These are the very same apologists, except for [Toronto mayor John] Tory, I might add, who either propped up QuAIA [Queers Against Israeli Apartheid] or refused to condone its existence in the Pride parade over five long years.
I repeat — while they refused to use the “M” word Sunday night even though the facts are staring them in their politically-correct faces — these are the very same people, who were quite content to allow the only gay-friendly country in the Middle East, the country that takes in gay refugees from the homophobic Arab countries, to be vilified in a parade that is supposed to be about gay rights.
I wonder — if my sources are correct about QuAIA rearing its ugly head in Toronto’s Pride parade yet again this year — whether we can expect the same prayer vigil for Israel at Barbara Hall park.Clearly, that last query is rhetorical.
