Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Tuesday appeared to cast blame on President Trump and the US for the downing by Iran of a Ukrainian jetliner that was allowed to take off from Tehran following an Iranian airstrike on US troops in Iraq just hours earlier.

“I think if there were no tensions, if there was no escalation recently in the region, those Canadians would be right now home with their families,” Trudeau told Global News television.

What were Canadians doing visiting a terrorist state?

I think he is right.

If Iran had not killed the American contractor and had not attacked our embassy in Iraq, all those Canadians would be all snug at home.

Who cares how many others would likely have been dead shortly?

Justin, the Middle East has been a dangerous place long before you were ever dropped on your head as a newborn..

and will remain so as long as appeasing little pricks like you are in gubamint top slots.

Canadians should be so ashamed of their Prime Minister. Iran attacked a US Embassy first. Trump did not shoot down the plane; even Iran’s own people know that!

O Canada — why did you re-elect this twit??

I am still hearing it was because Trudeau wore brownface. Some think if Trudeau had not culturally appropriated an Arabian street urchin, those Canadians would be right now home with their families.

That does it. Red line this SOB from the new trade agreement and slap huge tariffs on all goods from Canada. We can live without the bacon and whiskey for awhile.

Justin Trudeau must hate us to think it’s o.k. for foreign terrorists to kill us. But, Trudeau’s hatred of us doesn’t justify Iran killing Canadians.

This should be a debate question.

Raise your hand if you think Trump is responsible for the Iranians shooting down a plane-load of innocent people.

How could they not all raise their hands?

I think it would be impossible for any one of them to not hold a hand up.

Usually a libturd will blame the firearm when someone gets shot. Using that philosophy, shouldn’t they be blaming the SAM?

Everyone, including Heads of State, should just wait a day or so when President Trump does something.

You will find out:
HE DID THE RIGHT THING
HE DID IT IN THE BEST POSSIBLE WAY
HE HAS THE FORESIGHT TO KNOW IN THE END IT WILL MAKE THINGS BETTER
AND
HE HAS A GOOD TIME POINTING OUT THAT IMPATIENT PEOPLE ARE STUPID.
