Canadians Should Stand With Iran Against The U.S. And Israel

 

The Israelis and Americans pose a far greater threat to world peace and justice than Iran has or ever could.

The United States and Israel are in the midst of a regime change attempt in Iran. 

Politicians and media outlets in Canada have sought to sell us this dangerous war by portraying it as vital to international security. We should not be deceived.

The ostensible justification for the war — which may be paused by a ceasefire — is that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu believes Iran is close to developing nuclear weapons. Concerns about Iran doing so because of Netanyahu’s statements have also been voiced by United States President Donald Trump and Prime Minister Mark Carney.

Let’s side aside for a moment that Netanyahu is currently the leader of a state committing genocide — and that he is the subject of an arrest warrant from the International Criminal Court for alleged war crimes — and focus on the fact that he’s a liar.

Netanyahu has been warning since 1992 that Iran is either years or weeks away from having a nuclear bomb. No such bomb has materialized over the past three decades, nor did one appear to be on the horizon prior to Israel’s unprovoked June 13 attack, according to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). 

The same can’t be said for the U.S. and Israel. The U.S. is the only state to have ever used nuclear weapons during a war, and currently has more than 5,200 of them. Israel is the only state in the Middle East with nuclear weapons, with most experts estimating it has at least 90. It is also not a party to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) nor has it accepted IAEA inspections or safeguards, unlike Iran.  (more...)
