The reviled neocon leader also plans to extend Canada's 'mission' to pretend to combat ISIS for another year.
Harper proclaimed that he would not seek the approval of Syria's President Bashar al-Assad to conduct airstrikes on his territory, proving that the illegitimate ruler of Canada is a violent aggressor and bona fide sociopath.
Harper's de facto argument for dropping bombs on Syria is not 'law' or 'consent' or any of the other artificial concepts that politicians usually invoke to justify immoral policies. It is simply, "I can do it because I can."
Some deluded and hopelessly ignorant people will argue that since Harper claims his airstrikes will target ISIS positions in Syria, the actions are defensible or justifiable, even if they are in violation of 'international law.'
That argument simply doesn't make any logical sense when you consider that Harper's violence is no different than ISIS's violence, hence there is no moral basis for the action. Harper is a violent murderer and thug (by virtue of his war policies in Afghanistan) who voices approval of and aids and abets other violent murderers and thugs in the form of the US and Israeli governments. When Israel slaughtered more than 500 children last summer, along with thousands of other innocent Palestinian men and women, Harper fervently supported the bloodbath. So any moralizing on Harper's part as it relates to ISIS is laughable and stupid.
Harper is not seeking to carry out airstrikes on China or Russia when they kill people in Tibet or Chechnya because he knows those states have the power to retaliate. But Harper is willing to launch missiles at ISIS precisely because he knows ISIS does not have the capacity to respond in kind, thereby debunking his monotonous assertions that ISIS represents a 'threat' to Canada.
ISIS does represent an imminent threat to the well-being of Syrians, Iraqis and others in the region, and those people have the right and duty to resist that aggression. But no country in the West has any right or moral high ground to intervene when they are the very ones responsible for this mess in the first place, and are themselves guilty of terrorism and violence which far exceeds that of ISIS.
It is useful to look at this from all angles, but all of this argumentation is a pointless exercise when you consider that ISIS was created by the very forces that are now superficially 'at war' with it, and this whole thing amounts to a pathetic charade.
The West, its allies in the Gulf and Israel mutually created ISIS as a counter-gang to cause problems for Assad and Hezbollah. Earlier this month it emerged that even Canada's intelligence agency CSIS was working with an ISIS human trafficker in Turkey.
ISIS is entirely a manufactured product of the Zio-American empire, and is being used by governments around the world as a convenient scarecrow to sanction militarism abroad and authoritarian power-grabs at home.
Governments, whose power rests on the myth of 'authority,' routinely invent 'threats' to convince their subjects that they need more power to protect the population from the scary phantoms that they help create themselves.
Comment: The funny thing is that Harper actually seems to think he's important. Well, he's not. He's simply the Americans' lapdog. They throw the ball, and he fetches.
