Canada and its ‘out and out Zionist’ prime minister have become the latest target of Iran’s Press TV
Press TV
Canada-centric news stories have
comprised nearly half of Press TV’s non-U.S. coverage of the Western
Hemisphere in recent weeks, and almost all of those have focused
exclusively on Canadian Aboriginal issues.
Press TV, Iran’s primary
English-language broadcaster, went live last month with its latest
report on the state of human rights in Canada.
Overtop archival footage of Niagara Falls, the Athabasca Oil Sands and Parliament Hill protests, reporter Ali Dashti outlined Ottawa’s policies to “steal indigenous children,” drive a pipeline to the West Coast in “ignorance of the First Nation land rights,” jail refugees arbitrarily and authorize heavy-handed crackdowns on student protesters in Montreal.
The anchor then introduced Vancouver-based “international lawyer” Alfred Webre to ask him why, despite such clear problems at home, Canada “accuses other countries, namely Iran, of human rights violations.”
Coming in on a grainy video feed, Mr. Webre explained that as an “out and out Zionist,” Prime Minister Stephen Harper is simply following the “same repressive policies within Canada that Israel follows within its own territories against the Palestinian people.”
Canada does this, he concluded, because it is “the ultimate Zionist state under the British Crown and under Israel.”
“Well, we’ll have to leave it there, thank you,” says the anchor.
A frozen country of 33 million has never loomed particularly large in the Iranian psyche. But after Canada’s surprise severing of diplomatic relations with the Islamic republic last September, the one-time “friendly face of the west” has become Press TV’s newest foreign target. Equipped with a small corps of Canadian correspondents and a rolodex of conspiracy theorists, the network — available through satellite and live-streaming on its web site — has spent the last six months pioneering that most unlikely of things: Anti-Canadian propaganda.

Canada does this, he concluded, because it is “the ultimate Zionist state under the British Crown and under Israel.”
