      This is unbelievable. We are going to sleepwalk into a war in the Middle East because Carney is unwilling to have a backbone and stand up to Trump.

      Follow Spain’s lead and condemn the illegal attacks and the illegal war (while also condemning the Iranian regime). Withdraw the support that was expressed previously and commit firmly to no involvement in this chaos in anyway.

      The situation in the Gulf is America’s mess and a consequence of their rushing into war.

      American-aligned Gulf states are neither democracies nor our NATO allies, and any interceptors that can be spared would be better served in Ukraine where there is work to do upholding the rules-based international order, not undermining it.

      My proudest moment as a Canadian was when we didn’t follow the US into Iraq. I know we can be better than getting sucked into this manufactured conflict.

      So for the people who don’t read before commenting:

      NOBODY IS TALKING ABOUT ATTACKING IRAN. 

      NO. BODY. 

      „Gen. Jennie Carignan, chief of the defence staff, made it clear that Canada is not participating in Operation Epic Fury, the joint Israeli-U.S. attack on Iran that began six days ago, but stressed the situation is „quite dire and dangerous for the Gulf states.“

      There are, in fact, more than two countries in the middle east and some of them would tentatively be called canadian allies.

      We need to stay out of this mess. Leave the US to waste its money and resources defending countries from the mess they created.

      Fuck no. Every single gulf state is an autocracy and/or has slavery. It’s utterly unacceptable for good Canadians to even sprain their ankle in the course of defending such garbage countries

      I want nothing at all to do with that absolute fucking shitshow. Stay out. Canadians should not tolerate even floating this idea.

      Yeah, lets not send our troops to kill and die for epstein files,
      I am sure folks down south will vote someone in again who would say that canada is a fake country.

      Although I’m open to supporting defensive operations in the gulf states, Cyprus and turkey the fact is Canada has very limited capabilities to do so.

      Our fighter fleet is so old that the airframes can’t take too many more combat missions, but they could be useful for shooting down shahed drones and certain missiles. Otherwise, we have no air defense systems besides hand held system and one on order that we need to keep in Latvia.

      Our ships have either no or antiquated air defense systems so would be extremely vulnerable.

      We could offer medical support, which they don’t seem to need, or air transport capabilities.

      Why the hell should we lift a finger for a crisis not of our making to defend regimes we find odious to the detriment of our oil and gas export industry?
