Very disappointed to learn that Canada supports USA strikes on Iran. Prime Minister Mark Carney of Canada and his foreign minister, Anita Anand, backed the American action. “Canada supports the United States acting to prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon "

At least 70 people, including some 60 children, were killed when U.S. and Israeli strikes hit the Shajareh Tayyebeh girls’ elementary school in Minab, southern Iran, according to the Fars News. The attack reportedly struck during school hours, with about 170 girls inside.

No one should be under any illusions here. Canada’s government is supporting, apparently without reservation, an illegal war of aggression initiated by Donald Trump, the neocons in his administration, and Israel. That’s it.

Dealing with the world as is, recognizes that we’re living with a racist genocidal regime just to the south of us. And that Regime along with its vassal state is illegally bombing another country. If you were looking at the world as is, you wouldn’t be providing cover for them.

I understand people like Robyn are professional condescending cynics, but it’s rewriting history to act as though only idiots heard the Davos speech as Carney suggesting he’d stand up to bullies — and she’s doing so largely based on post-Davos actions. He literally said Canada

We were wrong to take him at his word at all, obviously. We got duped. I think the fear of being duped is why many of us — myself included — said we’d wait and see if he walked the talk. Turns out we just didn’t understand what he was telling us, and that may have been by

The images coming out of Iran are already unbearable. Reports of an elementary school struck by missiles, killing dozens of people, with scores more killed around the country. Fear and chaos in the streets as families run through smoke and search for safety.  The United States

Israel is using the war with Iran as an opportunity to further punish the captive Palestinian population, once again closing off Gaza from humanitarian aid and imposing a lockdown on the West Bank. Meanwhile Carney praises this genocidal regime’s “right to defend itself.”

When Carney pointed out past hypocrisy about rule of law, we were led to believe Canada was embracing rule of law but actually Canada was embracing hypocrisy

A principled foreign policy defends international law not because it does something good for us, but because it is principled, and because every effort to whittle away sovereignty & prohibitions on the use of force weaken protections for everyone - if not now then later.

If this reading of Carney’s Davos speech is right, it: 1️⃣ sacrifices aspiration & a vision to shape the world for the better. 2️⃣ offers the reasoning to other states, incl. our allies, to avoid defending Canada if / when our sovereignty & territorial integrity is threatened.
