CANADA: A TEXTBOOK EXAMPLE OF HOW INTERNVENTION ABROAD CREATE TERRORIST ATTACKS AT HOME--------JUST LIKE ALL THE AMERICAN MILITARY INTERVENTION ABROAD LED TO 9/11. How the world has changed. Canada’s wise caution about military adventurism even at the height of the Cold War has given way to a Canada of the 21st century literally joined at Washington’s hip and eager to participate in any bombing mission initiated by the D.C. interventionists. Considering Canada’s peaceful past, the interventionist Canada that has emerged at the end of the Cold War is a genuine disappointment. Who would doubt that today’s Canada would, should a draft be reinstated in the US, send each and every American resister back home to face prison and worse? As Glenn Greenwald pointed out this past week: Canada has spent the last 13 years proclaiming itself a nation at war. It actively participated in the invasion and occupation of Afghanistan and was an enthusiastic partner in some of the most extremist War on Terror abuses perpetrated by the U.S. Canada has also enthusiastically joined President Obama’s latest war on Iraq and Syria, pledging to send fighter jets to participate in the bombing of ISIS (and likely many civilians in the process). But Canada’s wars abroad came back home to Canada last week.
