Iran recently attacked Israel with nearly 200 ballistic missiles. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu promises to retaliate. He must do so decisively.

Yesterday, Canada’s formidable opposition leader, Pierre Poilievre, publicly made the case for including among Israel’s targets the mullahs’ vast nuclear weapons-related infrastructure. He said, “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.

“And 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.”

Ditto if Bibi targets the Iranian regime itself, giving that nation’s longsuffering people a chance finally to free themselves from the monsters who brutally repress them and threaten the rest of humanity.
