Toronto's Iranian diaspora braces as Trump threatens Iran's 'whole civilization' over Strait of Hormuz | CBC News
"I'm really disappointed. This is not war. War is man to man. On one hand they say they're going there to help Iranian people with freedom. Then they're bombarding their hospitals, all these roads, universities. That's not what Iranian people were expecting."
"Trump has given Iran an ultimatum to open the Strait of Hormuz by 8 p.m. ET Tuesday, threatening to destroy every bridge and power plant in Iran within four hours if it doesn't. Iran says it would retaliate against the infrastructure of U.S. allies in the Gulf."
"Memi says that isn't the right way to pressure the Iranian regime. Instead, he says the U.S. and Israel should be at the negotiating table."
"'War comes with a cost,' Iranian Canadian says. But while many worry about what might come next, others are hopeful this will be the final blow to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and the Iranian regime."
Simon Memi expresses disappointment over U.S. threats to Iran, highlighting fears among the Iranian diaspora regarding civilian safety. He criticizes the approach of bombing infrastructure while claiming to support Iranian freedom. Memi advocates for negotiations instead of military action. Trump has issued ultimatums to Iran, threatening severe consequences if demands are not met. While some fear the implications of war, others believe it could weaken the Iranian regime. Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney emphasizes the importance of respecting international laws in conflicts.
