Who ever thought that world leadership could come from Canada? Not from hopeless bimbo Justin Trudeau, of course, but from Conservative opposition leader Pierre Poilievre.
This week Poilievre made sensible comments about the situation in the Middle East. Not least about the evil colonial regime that has set the region on fire: the revolutionary Islamic government in Iran.
The Canadian media tried to make Poilievre back down. But then Poilievre showed even more leadership.
He replied: “I think the idea of allowing a genocidal, theocratic, unstable dictatorship that is desperate to avoid being overthrown by its own people to develop nuclear weapons is about the most dangerous and irresponsible thing that the world could ever allow. If Israel were to stop that genocidal, theocratic, unstable government from acquiring nuclear weapons, it would be a gift by the Jewish state to humanity.”
The current Canadian government and media are probably on life support from hearing such truths.
But what Poilievre said was absolutely true.
Just imagine if the American government could show such leadership.
Instead, for the past year since October 7, 2023, the Biden-Harris administration has had only one message to our Israeli ally: “Cease fire.”
The US government has been calling for a “cease-fire” ever since the Hamas massacre of October 7 and Hezbollah joining in the war on October 8.
But why should there be a cease-fire? If 44,000 Americans had been slaughtered in the most barbaric fashion in a single day and 10,000 further Americans taken hostage (which it would be by proportion of population), I would expect the American Army to tear up the Earth to punish the perpetrators and destroy any regime that was behind them.
And if America’s allies spent every following day saying that America should exercise “restraint” and have a “cease-fire,” I would expect them to be ignored, and more.
Yet for the past year, every Israeli victory has occurred in spite of the insistence of the Biden-Harris administration.
Biden-Harris tried to stop the Israelis going into Gaza with full force to destroy Hamas and get the hostages home.
They told the Israelis not to go into Gaza City and not to go into the Hamas command center that was the Shifa “hospital.”
They told the Israelis not to pursue Hamas in Khan Younis or Rafah. And then they called for restraint and “cease-fire” when Israel went after another Iranian army — Hezbollah in Lebanon.
They told Israel not to be “proportionate” and then not to act. Biden-Harris said the Israelis must be precise in their use of weaponry and then expressed concern about the anti-Hezbollah pager attack.
An attack that wounded 3,000 Hezbollah terrorists and will go down in history as the most precise attack on any terrorist group.
For the past month, Israel has had victory after victory against Hezbollah. That terror group fired over 10,000 missiles at Israel in the past year, forcing thousands of Israeli families from their homes.
Then after the pager attack and the walkie-talkie attack, the IDF took out most of Hezbollah’s missile arsenal and killed most of its leadership, including the group’s leader, Hassan Nasrallah.
There was mild support for this after the fact from President Biden. But none of the thanks that should have gone to an ally who finally avenged the killing of 241 American servicemen by Hezbollah in 1983.
I spent part of this week on the Lebanese border, where Hezbollah is still firing missiles at Israel. In one afternoon, I watched Hezbollah fire hundreds of missiles over my head, and at one point at one of the towns, Safed, which I was in. I saw the houses that were hit and the families that were destroyed.
Now that Hamas and Hezbollah have been degraded, Iran is running out of front groups. So twice in recent months they have fired hundreds of missiles and drones at Israel direct from Iranian territory.
No people on Earth could live like this. But still the American government says that it is Israel that should “step back from the brink.”
Well, sorry — but the revolutionary government in Iran long ago went over the brink. What is needed now is allyship with Israel and unity against the theocrats in Iran.
Since 1979, the ayatollahs have not only imprisoned the Iranian people. They have also regarded Israel as the “Little Satan” and America as the “Great Satan.”
It is “Death to America” that they chant at Friday prayers in Iran and put on the sides of the missiles that they parade through their streets.
Why should Israel have to fight alone against this regime of death? And why should it be Israel alone that should try to stop the mullahs in their search for a nuclear bomb?
If people enjoy what the ayatollahs have done before achieving nuclear weapons, then they will love what they would do if they ever get them.
After the latest barrage from Iran and Lebanon, Israel’s Defense Minister Yoav Gallant said, “The Iranian attack was aggressive but inaccurate.
“In contrast, our attack will be deadly, pinpoint accurate, and most importantly, surprising. They will not know what happened or how it happened.”
Once again the American government is urging restraint on Israel. But why? If Israel bombs Iran’s oil fields, it they could cripple the Iranian economy and certainly cause global oil price movement.
But why did the Biden-Harris administration reverse President Donald Trump’s policy, which had the mullahs bankrupt and on their knees?
Today the mullahs are riding roughshod across the region. Attacks like those from Hamas and Hezbollah have been made possible by Biden-Harris gifting them billions of dollars.
Any ordinary government might use such a bonanza to help their people. Not the theocratic fascists in Iran. They have used it to spread terror and get nukes.
So yes — Canada’s Poilievre is right. And the government in Washington is wrong. It is time to cripple the mullahs and prevent them from ever adding a nuclear weapon to their terror arsenal.
If Israel goes it alone, then Biden-Harris will probably condemn them. But the region — and the wider world — will soon thank them.

The administration and the EU are counting on Israel to strike the Iranian Nuke facilities - then they can calmly continue their game.
