Iran’s nuclear programme is a grave threat to international security, and Canada has been consistently clear that Iran can never be allowed to develop a nuclear weapon.

While U.S. military action taken last night was designed to alleviate that threat, the situation in the Middle East remains highly volatile. Stability in the region is a priority.

Canada calls on parties to return immediately to the negotiating table and reach a diplomatic solution to end this crisis. As G7 leaders agreed in Kananaskis, the resolution of the Iranian crisis should lead to a broader de-escalation of hostilities in the Middle East, including a ceasefire in Gaza.

For sure, but Iran doesn't have many options do they? I think by blow over, I mean they'll retaliate in the way these countries do. They will signal their attack loudly and early. USA and Israel will have time to prepare. Iran attacks. America says fuck you and does a return. Iran again does another attack with a huge signal to say look we're retaliating. Then it's all back to business as usual. Everybody gets to say they did something and they're all big bad boys.

    From a friend that has connections there, some Iranians welcomed the assaults because they want their current leader removed. And I'm sure USA would love to install a leader there again.

    That's what I'm hearing of too. I'll honestly admit if Trump pulled this move and it leads to a regime change. Fuck I'll give it to him as a ballsy move that worked. I would think at this point if it works, and I were to deny the victory I would be doing it just because I don't like Trump and I think that's something I don't want to do just out of spite.
