Apparently, Canada has balls that Obama’s America has shriveled with cowardly incompetence.

Here’s hoping the Romney Administration will have the same testicular fortitude.

Canada is moving in exactly the opposite direction of the US.
Good on, Canada!

Could this mean they know Israel will attack soon?

This is a very Topsy-turvy world in which we live where Canada has a set huevos and we lost ours in 2008. Although we don’t currently have diplomatic relations with Iran, our government is pathetically groveling before the mullahs to reestablish them. Boy, this is a very sad time in our history.

I may be wrong, but the US has not had diplomatic relations with Iran since the 1970’s. All discussions go through back channels.

Well, Canada has Harper and we’ve got Obama. That’s a huge difference.

A hot and heavy war simulation between Canada and Iran didn’t turn into the expected nail-biter at the ole’ wargame club.

Turn 136: HMCS Goose Bay is still in the St. Lawrence. Tehran issues a scathing communique.

This could be a precautionary measure preparing for Iran being hit in October.

“Canada has also designated Iran as a state sponsor of terrorism.”

Yay

First thing that occurs to me is does Canada know something we don't? Perhaps Iran's nuke program is nearing its closing act and Canada’s getting her folks out of harm's way.

This is truly Great news, well done Canada & Harper govt.

You may want to check out this blog on regular basis. http://shiro-khorshid-forever.blogspot.com.au/

The blogger is a Canadian Criminal Defence Lawyer & a Pro Democracy Activist of Iranian descent. She has been active for a number of years now, speaking publicly against the Iranian Islamic Regime, and very active defending dissidents, particularly those belonging to ethnic socalled minority grps in Iran, who have been subjected to Iranian Regime’s brutality.

Apart from her most recent entry about Canada’s suspension of diplomatic relations with Iran, other noteworthy entries are on July 15 2012 (CANADIAN BANKS Should Shut Down the Accounts of All Individuals Affiliated with the Islamic Regime in Iran) - and June 10 2012 (Reformist Event with Mojtaba Vahedi Turned Into an anti-Islamic Regime Protest).

However, personally, I do not agree with this specific statement in her last blog entry stating: “while Iranians welcome any efforts to isolate the Iranian Regime politically they would strongly condemn any foreign military interference in Iran!”

I believe those who have property & family in Iran fear for them in the case of military action, and the topic is up for debate & naturally is politically extremely sensitive. There is no clear consensus among exiled Iranians. Although most recognize that unless force is applied, the Mullahs’ regime is there to stay. If/when force is applied, it is also recognized that it will get extremely ugly, all around. But they need to just bite the bullet on this, imo.

Smart. Get your people out of town before the Iranians start rounding up westerners as “human shields” against what’s coming their way...
