Jordan Countries: Freeland and Death Cult

jordan countries: In our Middle East strategy, we are also making meaningful contributions to stabilize Lebanon and Jordan not least by welcoming more than 40,000 Syrian refugees to Canada, Freeland told a major meeting of the World Jewish Congress in New York, according to Huffington Post Canada. Foreign Affairs Minister Chrystia Freeland said ISIL is a death cult that will be defeated. Part of that strategy, Freeland said Monday, is shoring up Lebanon and Jordan countries facing a massive influx of refugees from Syria displaced by fighting between various factions in that country's long civil war.

And that is a core international value of Canada's. I mention this particular Canadian contribution to the region because, as we all know, the stability of these countries is inextricably linked to the security of Israel. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
