Elimination of sovereign states is not an objective of Canada. But
I would still want our military to add more submarines and fighter
jets to our arsenal. I don't want my country to shore up defense only
after we are invaded by Russia or the U.S. first however unlikely such
scenario would be. Iran has to be suicidal to discard (non-nuclear)
defensive weapons they have deployed to fight off invaders.
comparing Canada to the religiously driven and hateful Iranian regime is
absurd
Canada certainly has never had ambitions to acquire nuclear weapons capability
Canada does not seek the Elimination of sovereign state
Canada has some problems (particularly since 2015), however, policy and specially military capability policy is not driven by fanatical religious doctrine and inbred hatred
So again what defensive weapons other than ballistic missiles Iran could have
used to counterattack last time they were invaded?
So again, had Iran recognized and accepted Israel's right to exist and abandon their objective to acquire nuclear weapons capabilities, there would not have been a raid.
your question is sort of like asking what steps can alcoholics take to ensure they do not die from liver failure.
stop drinking sounds like a plan
I abhor proliferation of nuclear weapons and I don't want to see Iran or
any states in the Middle East to possess them.
that's a 180 degree statement
BTW
AI Overview
Israel is widely believed to possess a nuclear arsenal, estimated at approximately 90 warheads, making it the only nuclear-armed state in the Middle East. Despite this, Israel maintains a strict policy of "deliberate ambiguity," neither confirming nor denying the existence of its program, and has not signed the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).
like i said, the middle east is a powder keg.
no upside in Iran lighting a match with its objective to acquire nuclear weapons capabilities to point at the sovereign state of Israel
''it is gods will''
just downside for everyone in the middle east
