Sanctions are never used righteously, that was just propaganda to get you to swallow them. They have ALWAYS been used to benefit the ruling class and the foreign policy goals of the American Empire.
Who is that and why does it appear she's turned herself into a blow-up doll?
How dare they respond to being attacked! Wtf does Canada expect them to do?
Wtf does Canada expect them to do?
Yield on everything and do as God Emperor Trump commands, just as Canada does.
MAYBE if they Bombed a SCHOOL Canada would give them HELP instead!
The funny thing is that even the US has reduced sanctions on Iran
Trump was winning so much the Americans begged him to stopped winning he took a symbolic L
The US has helped Iran develop new income sources like bribes for every ship
Strange that I don't see many Canadians pointing out Canada supporting US imperialism yet again.
Yes, people forget Canada can still diplomatically oppose the war and push for internationally backed de-escalation without condoning the Iranian regime.
While I feel a lot of contempt and opposition to US imperialism, they've pulled the trigger and there's no going back to how things were. Between expanding Iran-backed militias, international sanctions, and the conflicting goals on nuclear weapons, the status quo before the war was also becoming less tenable long term. And now there's the question of how to stop this war without leaving a wounded and even more dangerous regime unchecked.
Canada and the US aren’t just allies, we’re tightly integrated militarily.
It may look like two separate countries on the political stage, but behind the scenes we operate together. When Canadian personnel are already embedded in command structures in the region, it’s not realistic to expect Canada to fully denounce the conflict
Oh we already know.
The OP is pointing out the hypocrisy. We know you fuckwits love sharing war crimes together, but then position yourselves as "polite" with online propaganda.
It's only getting more evident to the international audience every passing day.
Keep it up tho. The world needs to see through the artificial facade you put up. 👌
... What artificial facade? Canada has a history as a country of brutal soldiers. For us the Geneva Convention is more of a checklist. We're very polite: Surrendering Germans got a bullet to the head as a thank you.
We had such a bad reputation the government shut down the Canadian Airborne Regiment (Our equivalent of the Marines) and pivoted us into a peacekeeping role to change perceptions.
We have upcoming trade renegotiations, and pissing off the orange turd before they start just isn't in the cards. We'll support international efforts in a way that doesn't piss off our brother to the south.
While I certainly don't agree with decisions, it's always interesting to see people mix up "polite" with "not absolutely brutal".
They clearly haven't studied the history of the Canadian Corp in WWI. All that (illegal now) ferocity is behind the scenes now, as it should be, but being polite and being a capable war machine are two very different things.
When we said that the rules based order was not coming back, we meant that we were personally going to bring it down by supporting wars of aggression.
Is Canada a significant net exporter of oil? If it is then this could make a lot of sense from a domestic perspective in a twist the knife on the global economy for profit kind of way.
They export a lot. A huge portion of it comes from tar sand deposits.
