The more I think of it, the more it becomes clear to me that Carney’s sucking up to Trump on the Iran attacks shows incredibly bad judgement. The Trump regime has threatened Canada before, and will threaten Canada again. Sending a message to the rest of the world that this fascist regime\u2019s aggression can at times be acceptable is not only morally repulsive, it undermines Canada\u2019s national security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The was against Iran has nothing \u2014 absolutely nothing \u2014 to do with upholding international norms. To think that the actions of lawless president who has flaunted norm after norm, both domestic and international, can be being taken for such ends is beyond na\u00efve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It also has absolutely nothing to do with promoting democracy. Just look at what happened in Venezuela. The same regime remains in power, now with US backing, just with a different, more subservient, leadership. It would not surprise me in the least to see an analogous outcome in Iran.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
