"An organization the FBI, the U.S.
State Department and U.S. courts have branded a 'terrorist
organization' has given advice to the Harper government that
led Immigration Minister Jason Kenney to barring a British
MP from Canada. A spokesman said Kenney first heard
about British MP George Galloway's visit from a Jewish
Defense League letter, and contacted departmental
communications staff at Citizenship and Immigration to
prepare media lines. The Jewish Defense League,
categorized by the FBI as a “right-wing Jewish terrorist
group”, was founded by US ultra-Zionist Rabbi Meir Kahane in
1968. The Jewish Defense League (JDL) wrote to the Canadian
government March 16 asking it to ban Galloway. Mr. Galloway
is scheduled to speak in four Canadian cities from March 30
to April 2 on "Resisting War from Gaza to Kandahar"." (thanks Khaled)
