Canadian PM Harper Jabs Justin Trudeau a.k.a 'The Canuck version of Obama' On Terrorism In Wake Of Boston Bombings.(HP).
LONDON - Terrorist attacks like the one that killed three people at the Boston Marathon should prompt manhunts, not soul searching, Prime Minister Stephen Harper said Wednesday in a thinly veiled jab at his new Liberal rival."When you see this type of violent act, you do not sit around trying to rationalize it or make excuses for it or figure out its root causes," Harper said before leaving London after attending Margaret Thatcher's funeral.
"You condemn it categorically, and to the extent you can deal with the perpetrators, you deal with them as harshly as possible."
Harper's comments appeared to be a direct rebuttal to a CBC interview with Justin Trudeau, in which the Liberal leader said examining the causes of terrorist attacks are important amid the security response.
"But there is no question that this happened because there is someone who feels completely excluded. Completely at war with innocents. At war with a society. And our approach has to be, where do those tensions come from?" "I expressed clearly yesterday and today the shock that I can only imagine that father feels whose son was killed for wanting to give him a hug," Trudeau said Wednesday in response to Harper's criticism.
I really hope that Mr. Harper rethinks the extent and the lengths he's willing to go to personally attack people and to politicize tragedies like that."
Hmmmm.....Apparently, whoever's responsible didn't get nearly enough hugs and participation trophies from "society."....You know a Liberal when you hear one.Read the full story here.
