In the last 20years the United States has spent close to $6 trillion on wars in the Middle East - Iraq, Afghanistan and Gaza. You wonder why they are dead broke and the guy trying to fix their economy who went bankrupt three times with his casinos who promised no more wars is at it yet again.

Zero for 3 Trump This is the guy who was going to end the Gaza War, the Ukraine war and now the Iran war. His track record doesn’t look good. Engaging the United States in another unnecessary and reckless Middle East war is insane. This is a Netanyahu war to preserve his tenure in office. Dumb!

The bye elections in Alberta are currently closing with NDP taking 2 of 3. No surprise Nenshi is walking away with the win in Strathcona. Ellerslie looks to go NDP also. Olds, Didsbury, Three Hills goes decisively to UCP beating out the separatists. The NDP have lots of work to do!

We should not see the bombing of Iran’ s nuclear site as a major achievement. Stephen Harper’s loathing of Muslims is well known . Likewise his tenacious support for Israel. Iranians are beautiful people and I know many whose family suffer daily at the hands of the regime. It is a time of sorrow

Pierre Poilievre reacts typically to the US bombing Iran’s nuclear facility. Without hesitation Poilievre has blindly supported Trump’s action. “100 % justified “ is not the response of a mature world leader. Poilievre has in the past wholeheartedly supported Netanyahu’s position on Gaza.

Pandora’s box is now open in the involvement of the US aiding Israel against Iran. Nuclear sites in Iran have been hit by US bombers today. Images of Iraq getting bombed without any evidence of holding weapons of mass destruction immediately come to mind. Here we go again! involved.

Israel’s preemptive attack on Iran is clearly in violation of International law. Netanyahu made a huge miscalculation pounding Iran and its nuclear facilities. International consensus is not on Israel’s side. Any involvement by the United States would bring the Middle East into turmoil.

Netanyahu’s most outrageous remark about Iran’s bombing of Israel’ s hospital Calling the bombing a criminal act after Israel has been consistently bombing all hospitals in Gaza since the war began- is absolutely mind boggling. The real criminal here is a war criminal called Netanyahu.

Conservatives unplugged from climate change realities. Melissa Lantsman now advocating abrupt halt to any move by Liberals to re-introduce subsidies for electric vehicles. Nothing surprising here. Since when have Conservatives ever held a plan for climate change? Smith unplugged EVs day one

“Stupid endless wars in the Middle East “ to quote Trump’s refusal just a short try time ago and now a preparation to attack Iran with Israel. In all Trump’s recent moves this is the dumbest by far. A total miscalculation. Moving war planes to the region signifies one more step closer.

Trump desperately clinging to power. Leaving the G-6 on a sudden exit because of Israel’s invasion of Iran, Trump finds himself lost in a dangerous world where he finds few friends. With $36 Trillion in debt the US has few nations it can borrow fromThe G6 proved he has few friends. Honeymoon over!

Pierre Poilievre gets a peer review in January. The right and the noble thing to go following a defeat at the polls as well as losing one’s own seat is to resign. Poilievre has neither class nor the common sense to resign. Not a word of thanks to the taxpayers picking up bye election/housing bill
