Ignatieff's duplicity

David Frum parses Ignatieff's English debate attacks on Stephen Harper and finds duplicity on Israel:

... The word “Israel” does not appear in these remarks. Friends of Israel who want to vote Liberal can continue to remind themselves that Ignatieff condemned “Israel Apartheid Week” in a speech at the global anti-Semitism conference a year ago.

But people who follow the issues more closely will hear a very different message encoded in Ignatieff’s remarks.

Kairos and Canada’s Center for Human Rights and Democratic Development did not become notorious by “working in Africa.” They became notorious because of their attacks on Israel and their too-close associations with anti-Israel extremism....

Excellent column. Vote hustling "duplicity" is the Liberal default position on pretty much everything. It's "da' balanced approach".
